Um...Give me a sec, I KNOW I've seen one recently...

Ah! Have you seen Yes Man? It's funny, but don't watch it if you don't like romantic comedy..

You could also watch the movies where comedians go on stage and do jokes, if all else fails.

Cool, I don't have many stand-up comedian films or shows, I don't watch movies or TV very much. I'm one of those people who are constantly active, but when I do watch movies, I keep it to horror or comedy.

But that's off topic!!!!

I think I thought of another comedy..

If you haven't already (because most people have, except me- I'm like a movie hermit x.x) you could watch Paul Blart: Mall Cop, it's supposed to come out in a few days.

But then, you've probably watched that in the theaters.

Heh, a lot of movies are like that - built up to something really good, and then a total dissapointment..

Ehh, sorry, but I'm out of suggestions :/ So I shall stop posting because it can then be considered off-topic and spam...

Did you see 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall' yet? One of the greatest comedies in past few years, by far.

Comedy is not even remotely my genre, unfortunately. However, I quite enjoyed Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle. Surprising, since I generally loathe pothead-type comedies.

Foul Play is a pretty amusing older comedy. But then, the last time I watched it was about 8 years ago so.

Richard Pryor: Live in Concert (1979) is probably the funniest stand-up performance ever filmed.

Hot Fuzz (2007) is probably one of the best comedies I've seen in a long time. Some of my old favorites are Raising Arizona (1987), Bowfinger (1999) and The Party (1968).

I think Charles Chaplin's comedies are pretty decent.
All of them are great and funny.
"Modern Times" and "The Circus" were the funniest I've watched.

Dirty work, Wet Hot American Summer, and either of the Dave Chappelle standup specials will make you laugh quite a bit.

For me (and for a lot of friends of mine), a great comedy movie to watch is "Some Like It Hot". Ok, it´s from 1959, but I swear it´s absolutely great. Even more if you like Marilyn Monroe, wich makes this movie particularly a great piece of art!

The Best Hollywood comedies were made in the 30's and 40's. There's a ton of great stuff from that era that you propably haven't seen yet. Try anything by Howard Hawks, Preston Sturges or Leo McCarey.
