Jack is hysterical. But definitely not a pure comedy. How pure does it have to be? This particlar thread is about comedies with little or no dramatic elements in them. "Cuckoo" is as much a drama as it is a comedy. But, no harm done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
war2112 Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 My favorite "pure comedy" movies include: Silver Streak Trading Spaces Blazing Saddles My Cousin Vinny Raising Arizona No doubt there are more pure comedies I have seen, but these were the ones off the top of my head that literally made me cry laughing.

What about the all time classic, Animal House?? Yep,mentioned "Caddyshack" earlier in thread. Heres a few more that come to mind '"Out Of Towners" Original with Jack Lemmon and Sandy Dennis. "What About Bob?" Last funny Bill Murray performance. "Office Space" Mike Judge first real people movie (Looks like you missed alot of work. Wouldn't say I missed it!) And "Best in Show" the weird world and weird people of dog shows,same makers and performers from "SPINAL TAP" Waiting for Guffman and "A Mighty Wind" What makes all of these funny is you know people like this exist!!!

Hypatia Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 Lots of good ones already mentioned, but I'd add Noises Off (yes, I know it's based on a play), Hitchcock's The Trouble with Harry and, though it may not qualify as pure comedy, the cult movie Harold and Maude despite the Cat Stevens soundtrack.

Pags Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 I know it's been mentioned, but Young Frakenstein is my all time favorite. Frau Bluecher(sp) Will You Give Me A Hand With The Bags? Certain scenes from The Odd Couple are amongst the funniest on film. I got thrown out of a hospital when visiting my father, because the Odd Couple was on TV and the two of us were laughing so hard we got in trouble with the nurses. It's when Oscar and Felix go to a diner and they're seating under an air conditioning vent. Felix is such a pathetic case, he has to move because the he can't take the direct cold air. Listen to what he does to try and clear his ears, and silences the entire restaurant. Clearing My Ears Or when Oscar wants Felix to get out..... Another words, you're throwing me out.... And as far a pure comedies go, a movie from the early 70's is a laugh a minute. What's Up Doc. It's a riot!! They Never Will And also, has anyone ever seen The Hollywood Knights?? CLASSIC!!

Like A Glove (Don't listen if easily offended) YES!!!!!! I skip over all the Tony Danza going to vietnam sections, but the rest is classic. Isn't it great how no matter how it jumps from one scene to the next, Robert Wuhl is always there? Newbomb Turk rules! "This punch tastes funny...I've had this taste in my mouth before..."
