Maurice Manton's Top Ten Comedies

My list of top 10 comedies:

10.Real Genius
This one appeals to me (I actually helped to move a vehicle into a dorm room)
9.Police Academy
(The first one was the best)
8.Bringing Up Baby
Really good.
7.Christmas Vacation
I lived through enough family holidays to make this really good.
6.A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum
5.Young Frankenstein
4.Grumpy Old Men
The ice fishing village, Small town Midwestern stuff. (I lived it growing up)
3.Men In Black
It is too silly.
2.The Presidents Analyst
James Coburn and the Phone Police it's great. (Early sixties comedy)
1.The Producers
Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder Great great movie if you haven't seen it you really must.

I have seen so many movies it is hard to choose. These are the ones I find myself looking for or quoting from. I know there are so many more like the Trinity series (silly cowboy stuff) and lots of other stuff I still enjoy The Love Bug.
