My favorite comedy is "Mark Angel Comedy". They are very short and very interesting with a lot of moral lessons.

La Strada
Don't Be A Menace To South Central While Drinking Your Juice In The Hood

Buffalo 66 is on my top 20 favorite films list, and although it’s humorous, I just can’t bring myself to call it a comedy because it’s so much more. Amazing film. 👍

reply

Don’t be a menace is an AWESOME pick.

Happy birthday homeboy!
For me?
Yeah! Make a wish.

reply

Thanks, old bean! I just went with the movies I could remember laughing the most through on the first viewing. They may not the best comedy movies cinematically speaking, but I judge comedies differently than other genres. I figure laughter production is the best way to judge them for me.
