Is it Dumb and Dumber or Step Brothers?

Or something else?

What do you think?

The third act is like a full-on war movie, but otherwise I agree.

Blazing Saddles is a contender, for sure. I haven't seen Friday in over 20 years, so I can't judge. Monty Python movies tend to be a little uneven, so I don't think they're real contenders. Never seen Duck Soup or Stripes and I don't really care for Caddy Shack.

I think we could add Airplane and The Naked Gun to the conversation.

I think Ruddo's picked most of the objectively best. My personal Mount Rushmore would be:

Anchorman
Best In Show
The Big Lebowski
Borat
Bridesmaids
Dr. Strangelove
Happy Gilmore
Monty Python and The Holy Grail
Office Space
Step Brothers
There's Something About Mary
Zoolander

There's also a bunch of movies that are comedic dramas, and I'd pick as being better movies, but they're not necessarily funnier. Stuff like Rushmore, Groundhog Day, Big, Friday, Dazed & Confused, Napolean Dynamite, The Truman Show, Beverly Hills Cop, Crocodile Dundee, etc

Gun to head, if I could only watch one comedy for the rest of my life, I'd have a tough time deciding between Step Brothers and The Big Lebowski.

Zoolander is a really good call. I always forget about that movie.

Lebowski wins. Skin tag's whole list is outstanding, though.

Same situations for me when I first saw American Pie or Old School in the theater.
