I know we’ve mostly been mentioning feature films, but I think the best of Three Stooges shorts still work quite well today.
Thanks everyone 
I’ll see how many of these I can catch on Netflix/Amazon Prime between now and the new year.
Here’s an oddity: the Naked Gun films are actually *funnier *today than they were on release; if only because it’s strangely satisfying to watch OJ Simpson get the snot beaten out of him in a way it wasn’t in 1988.
Her clothes looked ridiculous the day that movie came out.
I was thinking exactly the same, a film that even the cynical yoots of today can enjoy.
The original MASH still cracks me up.
And while some of the jokes are dated (phone booths, gas station attendant, etc.), I think Airplane! is still comedy gold!
Caddyshack.

All still as funny as I remember.
Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure - I catch this every so often, and have been surprised by how well it’s held up in general. The only real thing that stands out to me is the use of a phone booth and yellow pages as the time machine. The dialog otherwise stands up fine.

I agree wholeheartedly about What’s Up Doc?
I’d also like to add Murder By Death and Pee Wee’s Big Adventure.

Recently saw Planes, Trains and Automobiles for the first time. I was much more impressed than I thought I’d be and think it should be on this list too.
Galaxy Quest doesn’t date, and actually gets funnier each time you see it. Pitch perfect comedy.
With the renewed interest in Star Wars due to the upcoming new movies, we re-watched Spaceballs this weekend. Still a hoot and now completely topical. But then, it’s Mel Brooks…

You know what? I like Cary Grant a lot.
The Birdcage still makes me laugh every time I watch it.
Stripes was mentioned in the thread on comedies that haven’t aged well.
But that is wrong. Stripes is still hilarious and the graduation scene is still one of the best army movie scenes ever filmed. “That’s a fact, Jack!”
