Good Morning Vietnam has some damned funny parts in it, so I suppose I'd leave it in. Clerks shoulda knocked Mrs Doubtfire out of the running for sure.
Tootsie was a good movie, but it wasn't THAT funny. Ditto for 9 to 5.
Fargo, a comedy? I suppose... I dunno bout that one though. Seemed pretty darned dramatic to me.
Ghostbusters shoulda been WAY closer to the top of the list.
I always say that Dumb & Dumber is funnier than There's Something About Mary.
I'm surprised there weren't any animated flicks up there. I guess the funniest animation are all shorts though.
At least Home Alone didn't make the list. Is it still the highest grossing comedy of all time? Shudder.
