Guest godthedog Posted May 4, 2003 Report Posted May 4, 2003 We just watched "Some Like It Hot" in my film studies class, that was pretty funny. In fact my teacher said it was listed as the #1 on the list...I guess it changed... 'some like it hot' is #1 on afi's funniest movies list. maybe that's what he meant.
Guest JHawk Posted May 5, 2003 Report Posted May 5, 2003 I think that one was #1 in the porn comedy list, but I'm not sure.
Guest creativename Posted May 5, 2003 Report Posted May 5, 2003 The list is fucked. The voting is based on the films greatness as a film. Because most films have comedy elements, they will be listed under comedy. So people are voting for the film and not the comedy. Yes. When you vote on IMDB, it just goes as a vote for the movie. This list, I'm assuming, is simply sorting all movies by the "comedy" filter. Here's the overall Top 250, by the way: http://us.imdb.com/top_250_films Seriosly though...Amelie? I thought it was a good movie, some nice visuals and directing, a lot of "aw that's cute" stuff...but it is over-rated here to an absurd degree. I would hardly consider it one of the best movies I've ever seen, not even close. And while there are plenty of movies where even though I may not personally like it, I can see why others would love it; I fail to see that with this movie. I can see people liking it a lot, but not the extremely high level of respect that this film gets. It's like, c'mon, #18 all-time? To me, it's inconceivable (heh, Princess Bride deserves all the accolades it gets--just a "wow" movie) that Amelie is ranked higher than 12 Angry Men, for instance (great old-school movie; great acting, great directing--worth seeing). It just doesn't compare.
Guest Vern Gagne Posted May 5, 2003 Report Posted May 5, 2003 I think that one was #1 in the porn comedy list, but I'm not sure. Do they make Porn Comedies?
Guest JHawk Posted May 5, 2003 Report Posted May 5, 2003 Isn't EVERY porn a comedy? Well, the softcore ones at any rate?
Guest El Satanico Posted May 5, 2003 Report Posted May 5, 2003 Actually, I've HEARD that some porn movies have had "slap stick" style comedy.
