Movies!!

alecta337

I need a movie to watch with my bf this evening. We both like funny movies and I don't want to make him sit through a chick flick. Its been a rough weekend, so something upbeat and fun would be good.

We are watching it at home, so anything on netflix or on DVD would be acceptable.

We watch a lot of movies, so we have already seen a bunch of the recent funny movies. Some that we've seen are hangover 1 and 2, superbad, grandmas boy, step brothers... I can't think of any others right now, kinda brain dead. But any suggestions would be great. Also I want to say that all these movies are the stupid-funny movie type, but those aren't the only kind of movies we like.

Oh and my suggestion for an awesome valentines day movie for anyone planning on watching a movie at home with their SO is Crazy Stupid Love, it is so funny!! and pretty sweet. My bf and I cracked up so may times, even though its kinda chick-flicky, he really loved it, so boys give it a chance.

This is an awesome movie!!!!!

I've tried to pick some upbeat movies – they're either comedies, or they have a happy ending, or they're so epic that it doesn't matter.

What's Up, Doc?
The Princess Bride
What About Bob?
Airplane!
Spaceballs
The Right Stuff
The Lord of the Rings
The Return of the Pink Panther
Young Frankenstein
Breakfast at Tiffany's
Raiders of the Lost Ark
Robin Hood: Men in Tights
My Fair Lady
Far and Away
The Producers
Star Wars
Anything concerning Monty Python
Radio
A Little Romance

Hmm... Most of the really good movies I know are kind of depressing, now that I think about it.

I agree, Bridesmaids is very funny (I'm not a chick flick person and I loved it)

DODGEBALL
CLUE

Ugly Truth - I'll show it to him and see what he thinks
Dodgeball - Seen it, about a million times, because its so funny
Clue - do you mean the 1985 one?

Just Go With It and Couple's Retreat

Just go with it - we saw it and we both thought it was so funny. He is a HUGE friends fan, so he loves Jen Anniston.
Couple's Retreat - I think we've seen this, not sure. I'll ask him about it.

Anchorman!

This is one of our staples. Love it!! But not right for tonight, I kinda wanna see something new

Hubby and I really loved Bridesmaids. He grabbed it for me because he was being nice......He LOVED it too

He actually got this for me too when it just had come out. He watched it and really liked it so we watched it together.


I told you we watch a lot of movies. He watches way more than me, he only works part time and I only get to see him on the weekends because I live somewhere else during the week. So he screens a ton of movies and then I get to watch the picks. Great suggestions, we loved all of these movies, but unfortunately we have seen them all, except ugly truth and clue.

Any more? =D

Woah, ok. You give me a lot of work here! I gotta IMDb all of these. Thanks for the suggestions, I'll look into them =]

there are so many good comedies out there, Yes Man, what happens in vegas, forgetting sarah marshall, and alot of older ones also are great, Funny Farm, Feds, Life as we know it, and my daughter said that friends with benefits was really funny too and her husband liked it also.

PoeRaven

You're probably too young, but my hubby and I are watching old "Wolfman" movies on this chilly Sunday afternoon. :bigsmile:

MissingMinnesota

I know many guys that liked Crazy Stupid Love. Actually had a guy come to work raving about how funny it was.

Sorry missed you mentioned this one already.

How about Mallrats?

we saw it, loved it

We like Charlie Kelly from Always Sunny. He is a great character.

I second the vote for Clue - it's an oldie but hilarious. I absolutely love Tim Curry.
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
The Ugly Truth - it is hilarious and while it is technically a rom-com men like it too.

agreed--Heigl is beautiful and HILARIOUS! Butler (the dude from 300) VERY funny as well.

My wife n I both enjoyed very much

asgard825

And yes dovesgate, CLUE rules!

Bridesmaids!!!

bodyjammin85

Swingers is awesome! 40 Year Old Virgin as it fits with the others you've seen. In Bruges is a black comedy with some laugh out loud moments.

bethvandenberg

have you seen Bridesmaids? Bad Teacher? What's your number? Moneyball was fantastic, Ides of March was good, I also want to see that new one with Justin T. about the time.... Have fun.

VegGrrl

I just saw "Crazy, Stupid, Love" - it was very funny - not nearly as much of a "chick flick" as you'd think.

But my favorite V-Day movie has got to be "Sid and Nancy"... (yes, seriously)

dovesgate

How about The Proposal? It has some laugh-out-loud moments.

MrCaleb

Grown Ups
Tommy Boy
Blades of Glory
Dumb and Dumber
Without a Paddle

Those are just a few I can think of
