Default Top 5 pure silly comedy films
As per Dion's request. No dramedy, no romantic comedies, no family comedies, just pure silliness in all its glory.

1. Monty Python and the Holy Grail
2. Airplane!
3. Dumb and Dumber
4. Young Frankenstein
5. The Jerk

HM: Hot Rod, Billy Madison, Super Troopers, The Naked Gun

Secondly, a nice varied selection in here. I love comedy and there is so much variety out there that it's hard to narrow it down. My list was a quick selection, but now I'm wishing I had taken more time on it.

BTW, anyone who hasn't watched Marx Brothers movies should start ASAP. Possibly the funniest men in the last 100+ years.
