Some comedies that stand the test of time did not necessarily pass the critical test on release, and we’re honoring those here. Many of these inducted films have high Tomatometer scores and are Certified Fresh, but the Tomatometer was not our only guide.
There’s no minimum review count for this list. We opened it up to movies of yesteryear, which typically don’t get as many reviews as their modern comedy rivals. These 150 movies will take you to college ( Animal House), past some fan favorites ( Step Brothers, Super Troopers ), and all around the globe ( Kung Fu Hustle, Amelie). Parody ( Airplane!, Scary Movie) to postmodern ( Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Galaxy Quest). Rom-coms ( Moonstruck, Annie Hall) to screwball ( It Happened One Night, Bringing Up Baby). Amélie is a story about a girl named Amélie whose childhood was suppressed by her Fathers mistaken concerns of a heart defect. From slapstick ( Dumb & Dumber, It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World) to silent ( The General, Modern Times). To that end, we’ve included all forms of the comedy movie. We’re melting minds, splitting sides, and slapping knees here.
(Though we’re not not saying those can sometimes be the pinnacle of professional-grade jokes.)

She pursues him with clues and messages, he pursues her, and in the end true love prevails.

Something that floats on the changing tides of time and taste, remaining relevant – and hilarious? It probably takes more than a football to the groin or a juiced-up fart on the audio track. Amlie is a waitress in a Montmartre caf whose mission in life is to ensure people's happiness.
