September 10, 201214 yr Members of the movie subscription service Lovefilm (never heard of it!) have named "Airplane" as the funniest film ever - generating an average of three laughs a minute. The top ten were - 1. Airplane - 3 Laughs A Minute 2. The Hangover - 2.4 Laughs A Minute 3. The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad - 2.3 Laughs A Minute 4. Superbad - 1.9 Laughs A Minute 5. Borat - 1.7 Laughs A Minute 6. Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy - 1.6 Laughs A Minute 7. American Pie - 1.5 Laughs A Minute 8. Bridesmaids - 1.4 Laughs A Minute 9. Shaun of the Dead - 1.3 Laughs A Minute 10. Life of Brian - 1.2 Laughs A Minute Well, I've seen four of these and heard of one other. The others are new to me! But funny films don't necessarily generate the most laughs, as the subscribers voted the tenth-placed Monty Python's "Life of Brian" the funniest film of all time. Clearly they never considered the 1994 "Junior" with Schwarzenegger, de Vito and Emma Thomson. That was a laugh-a-minute outright bomb! As one critic wrote: "The film evokes not so much laughter as it does the desire to begin vomiting continually and not stopping until sometime during the next administration."
