Bravo recently ran a special counting down the 100 funniest movies of all time. What a joke. You can check out the list on the link, but I'll run down a few lowlights for you:
*Police Academy, Meet The Parents and The Nutty Professor(Eddie Murphy Version) are all on the list.
*Slapshot(actually I'm surprised it got recognized at all), Ghostbusters and Blues Brothers all failed to make the Top 50.
*The Wedding Singer and Ace Ventura both made the Top Ten. Seriously.
*There are only two Mel Brooks movies on the list.
*Shrek was reasonably funny, but in no way shape or form is it the 3rd funniest movie of all time.
I'm pretty sure these people picked their top 100 in no particular order and then picked the rankings out of a hat. Either that, or they just don't know funny.
This was, by and far, THE WORST TOP ANYTHING LIST EVER! I couldn't get over the schlock they were suggesting was even funny. What a joke.
ReplyDeleteThey also forgot the acclaimed "Fifteen Minutes to Harlem".
ReplyDeleteSee ... what is wrong with people?! Perhaps they should have asked people that have some familiarity with movies what to put on the list.
ReplyDeleteUnbelievable stupidity. Not that I didn't like some of the movies listed, but clearly not in the order presented.
And what's with Ace Ventura in the top 10? Hinky ... *cracking up*
