I am in the mood for a comedy, and have these ten options.
Which one should I watch (What is your favorite comedy of these?)?
I have the time to watch some of them but not all and I cannot decide- so help me out! (I have never seen any of them).
Caddyshack
The Hangover
Annie Hall
Life of Brian
Some Like it Hot
Groundhog Day
Blazing Saddles
Duck Soup
Airplane!
Monty Python and the Holy Grail

I have to go with "Some Like It Hot". The entire movie is a classic, but watching Tony Curtis do his Cary Grant imitation is priceless.
I love music. I want music. I need music.
I selected Annie Hall. Honorable mention to Some Like it Hot, Groundhog Day and Blazing Saddles.
Why can't you watch all 10? I assume you don't have a time deadline.

VOTE OUT OF THESE: I vote ALL! (and you for got one hint: "nice knockers! why thank you doctor"
I’ve only seen ‘Some Like It Hot’ which is brilliant.
I have only heard the grand total of ONE of those comedies! And that is Monty Python.

Only my opinion, of course, but I wouldn't bother with Caddyshack - I just can't understand why people find it funny, although I appreciate the fact that it sends up golf and the social/career-climbing creeps that the pastime is riddled with. Maybe I'm biased because I'm not a fan of either Chevy Chase or Bill Murray (apart from when the latter played 'Big Ern' McCracken in Kingpin).
'...a violator of his word, a libertine over head and ears in debt and disgrace, a despiser of domestic ties, the companion of gamblers and demireps, a man who has just closed half a century without a single claim on the gratitude of his country or the respect of posterity...' - Leigh Hunt on the Prince Regent (later George IV).
Why did this not include a choice for
Earnest Saves Christmas?

"All of Italian opera can be heard in [Bellini's] "Ah! non creda [mirarti]."
--Renata Scotto in "Scotto, More Than a DIva."
I'd vote for most of these, except the Marx Brothers, whose comedy is far too dated for me. Caddyshack gets a "meh" from me too. And come to think of it, I don't know The Hangover.
When pressed for one and one only, it had to be Brian. For 5hose offended by it, I should point out that he is not The Messiah. He is a very naught boy, though....

There's quite a few of them I haven't seen either. I do love 'Some Like it Hot', but I perhaps laughed more at Groundhog Day. Blazing Saddles is also very good.

My fiddle my joy.
Great list but what about Bob?
I voted Groundhog Day , but Caddyshack is a close second.
Caddyshack - Bill Murray's story about the Dalai Lama (1:18)
CaddyShack - Cinderella Story (Bill Murray) wins the Masters (1:38)
