These films were ranked the top 10 films by "Laugh a minute.... I will put the criteria here for you to read:
It comes from Lovefilm, the London-based video streaming and DVD subscription service. Lovefilm polled its members for the 10 movies that made them laugh most. Then, says spokesperson Helen Cowley, the company convened a panel to watch the movies and note “how many times [each film] made us giggle.” Divide the number of laughs by the film’s length in minutes, and voilà: the Laugh a Minute score.
The top 10 list is below... I warn you now, the top ten is ridiculous... I mean... horribly...horrid beyond belief it is so, so bad.
1. Airplane
2. The Hangover
3. Naked Gun: From the Files of the Police Squad
4. Superbad
5. Borat
6. Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy
7. American Pie
8. Bridesmades
9. Shaun of the Dead
10. Life of Brian.
ONE Bloody Python movie?! One?! And it comes in at # 10?!
No classic comedies?
No Mel Brooks?!
What the hell is wrong with these bleeding Brits?!
I can see Airplane at # 1, ok.. I might not agree with it, but I can see it... maybe. But the rest of the list?!
For Christ's bloody sake!
What would your major bone of contention be? I'd have to include Young Frankenstein .... my own bias is Pee Wee would have to be in there somewhere, it needs more Python!
I'm not asking you to name your tops, but what the hell, folks, what the bleeding hell?
