22. OLD SCHOOL (2003)

20. BEST IN SHOW (2000)
19. CLUELESS (1995)
18. NAPOLEON DYNAMITE (2004)
17. TROPIC THUNDER (2008)
16. SUPERBAD (2007)
15. TRADING PLACES (1983)
14. WEDDING CRASHERS (2005)
13. WAITING FOR GUFFMAN (1996)
12. WHEN HARRY MET SALLY... (1989)
11. THE 40 YEAR-OLD VIRGIN (2005)
10. DAZED AND CONFUSED (1993)
9. A FISH CALLED WANDA (1988)
8. THE BIG LEBOWSKI (1998)
7. THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT MARY (1998)
6. SOUTH PARK: BIGGER LONGER & UNCUT (1999)
5. OFFICE SPACE (1999)
4. THIS IS SPINAL TAP (1984)
3. BEVERLY HILLS COP (1984)
2. NATIONAL LAMPOON'S VACATION (1983)
1. GHOSTBUSTERS (1984)

Take out the following:

Clueless
40 Year Old Virgin (barely laughed)
Wedding Crashers (funny for 15 minutes)
South Park (was funny when it came out, but not really that funny anymore)

Some of these were funny at the time, but aren't quite as funny anymore:

There's Something about Mary (FRANKS AND BEANS!)
Austin Powers (I have to admit, I enjoyed it when I first saw it)

These movies need to be on the list:

The Royal Tennenbaums
Bottle Rocket
Rushmore
Raising Arizona
The Princess Bride
Revenge of the Nerds

My top five would be:

(1) The Big Lebowski
(2) Office Space
(3) Trading Places
(4) Rushmore
(5) The Royal Tennenbaums
By 1. Ghostbusters, does that mean Ghostbusters was funniest. If so, that's a gate to legitimacy for this list and confirms why I gave up my subscription to EW.

Also, thanks for letting me friend you.
