From the Golden Age of slap stick to modern day, what cha got?
What are your favorite comedies of all time?

I am about to tick off every male here...lol
I don't like slapstick, The Three Stooges, or any of the "guy" comedy movies. Not even an Abbot and Costello fan. Don't care for Steve Martin (don't be mad, Paint) or that type of over the top humor.
Clean and subtle humor, please.

Oh, I LOVE slapstick! I also like subtler forms of humor, but slapstick that is well done is something that I have loved since childhood. One favorite movie that comes to mind, is "What's Up Doc?" with Barbara Streisand and Ryan O'Neil. I also like the 3 Stooges, and movies like Blazing Saddles, "Young Frankenstein," and "High Anxiety."

Being a greenkeeper, Caddyshack, Bill Murray played a greenkeeper to a tee, lol. Also Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
Some scenes you have to see three or four times to fully appreciate.
A pie in the face and the after shock reaction never gets old. Anyone ever throw a pie in some one's face in real life ? I know many have smashed a piece of wedding cake in their spouses face.
I'd like to watch Marx Brothers movies occasionally when we return to movie night.

'In the Sweet Pie and Pie' was their pie throwing shorts. Looks like all involved had A LOT of fun.
