1. This is Spinal Tap (1984, Rob Reiner)
Hands down my favorite comedy. This movie just seems to get better with each viewing. We follow “the world’s loudest band” Spinal Tap on their doomed “Smell the glove” comeback tour. From perfect casting (Christopher Guest in particular) to great humor, I’m still amazed about the little in-jokes and humor I still discover (even after 15+ viewings).
2. Blazing Saddles (1974, Mel Brooks)
My favorite Mel Brooks film. Harvey Korman (as per usual) steals the show as the scheming Hedley Lamarr, with great performances by Gene Wilder, Cleavon Little and the beautiful Madeline Kahn.
3. The Pink Panther Strikes Again (1976, Blake Edwards)
This one still makes me laugh out loud. From the classic Ceto fight scenes, thru the house-staff interrogation, up to the grand storming of the castle, nobody brought Clouseau to life like Sellers did.
4. Stir Crazy (1980, Sidney Poitier)
Although suffering from a terrible 3rd and final act, the entering of the prison up to the actual rodeo are amongst the funnies experiences ever brought to screen by Pryor and Wilder (in my opinion anyway). As a bonus, make sure to watch Richard Pryor’s “Live on Sunset Strip” for his comments on their filming experience at the actual prison.
5. The Party (1968, Blake Edwards)
Sellers plays the bumbling extra, with the unpronounceable name, accidentally invited to a party. The dining scene alone is worth the admission, and just thinking about the chicken stuck on the tiara makes me start giggling. Sellers and Blake Edwards were a match made in heaven.
6. [Honorable mention] Top Secret! (1984, Jim Abrahams et al.)
I’ll simply leave this one as an “in-joke” to the people who went to High School with me…
Remember, this list is LAUGH OUT LOUD comedies. Discuss...

I watched Pink Panther a few months ago but I haven't seen any of the others in years. Thanks for the list, I'll watch them over the next few months.
