I haven't seen Anchorman  :Embarrass:

Liep

43. Might have missed a few because I don't know the English titles. Movies from before the 90's all had their titles translated to Danish.

About 68.  A lot of the boxes didn't check for me.

Brazil is a comedy?  :huh:

Indeed it is, it's the comedic version of 1984.

How many of the best 100 comedy movies of all time (according to Time Out) have you seen?

I'm at 60 myself, give or take, although I have problems identifying them by their English titles sometimes. Titles of comedy films have been historically butchered in their Spanish versions.
34.  Most of them weren't funny, especially the older ones, like Pink Panther.

Most movie comedies aren't funny. It's hard to keep people laughing for 90 minutes.
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

The Pink Panther movies were hilarious.  Sellers was a master of comedy.

The Party, what a rollercoaster.

77.  There were a few titles I was completely unfamiliar with.

Some of the earlier Pink Panthers can be a little draggy.

Ideologue

60, with a few more I think I've seen but not in 20 years.  I'm not the biggest comedy guy. (However, I question the utility of a greatest comedies list that has no Ernst Lubitsch or Harold Lloyd. Unless I missed them?)
Kinemalogue
Current reviews: The 'Burbs (9/10); Gremlins 2: The New Batch (9/10); John Wick: Chapter 2 (9/10); A Cure For Wellness (4/10)

Martinus

Got 33 but I am sure to have missed some, because I do not remember the title (or watched it originally in Polish and did not know the original title).

Edit: For example, "Some Like It Hot".

Barrister

I got 54.  A few I might have seen as a kid on some cable channel, but I don't remember.  A few I know I've seen, but honestly don't remember much about them.

I've only seen about half of the top ten though.  That actually sounds like a good list of movies I really ought to go see, starting with This is Spinal Tap.
Posts here are my own private opinions.  I do not speak for my employer.

 :blink: I can't believe there are people who have not yet seen Spinal Tap.
