He did get offended by a .jpeg after essentially calling me stupid in the "latest movie" thread...

My favourite Apatow-produced films are Anchorman, Superbad and Pineapple Express. Now only are they my favourite of his films, but they're 3 personal favourites that I never get tired of watching. I just don't think the rest of his films are that funny.

But you don't like Knocked Up or 40-Year-Old Virgin? I didn't know that was possible...

edit: Step Brothers is hilarious too.

5) Billy Madison
My homage to the Adam Sandler movies I loved when I was a little kid. Happy Gilmore might be a "better" movie, but there is no doubt in my mind that Billy Madison is the funniest. It is packed with great immature jokes you love as a 12 year-old kid.
Favorite scene: dodgeball game
4) Zoolander
My Ben Stiller representative, although to be honest I find him to be one of the least humorous of the big-name comedians (he finishes just ahead of Jim Carey). Zoolander is great though, and it's got that strong supporting cast I think every successful LOL comedy needs.
Favorite scene: coal mine
3) Step Brothers
This is like the comedy you realize has no plot and it doesn't matter. The whole point of the movie is to let Ferrell and Reilly act like 40 year-old babies and I'm fine with that because it's hilarious. The true R-rated Ferrell movie, I doubt he'll ever come close again.
Favorite scene: trying to sell the house
2) Super Troopers
I didn't see this one until a couple of years ago but it quickly made a mark. Beer Fest is good but this is the best thing this comedy troupe has produced. It's filled with one-liners and classic scenes.
Favorite scene: 10 meows
1) Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy
My all-time favorite comedy, or film for that matter. Me and my friends easily watched it 20 times the first summer we had the DVD. It doesn't matter how many times I see it, I'll laugh at nearly every scene. So many good one-liners to quote!
Favorite scene: gang fight!

Im down with your list...good to see some Billy Madison on there.

Im gonna make a list of however many I feel like right now..

Fubar - Cant believe theres no mention so far...not sure if many people here are even familiar with the movie.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall - Love Paul Rudd and Brand in this one.

Billy Madison - Absolute beauty movie...quotable forever.

Dumb and Dumber - Probably my favourite comedy of all time because there is literally not one slow part in the entire movie for me...constant comedy.

Half Baked - Im a castodian dick.

Hot Rod - Didnt expect much from this one at all, but its a gem for sure.

Im probably missin a bunch...i'll edit when I can think of em.

EDIT: Super Troopers ( Missed that one pretty quick ) - Got you good you rookie fucker.

I really, really don't understand the infatuation with Anchorman. But Zoolander was pretty great.

Humor is one of those things that is purely based on taste, but I'm surprised anybody can watch Anchorman and not see how funny it is...

Top 5 for me are:

1) Hot Fuzz
Hilarious all way through. The melo-drama, how he actually had a legitimate excuse for all the crimes, crusty jugglers... This film basically had me in tears.

2) Superbad
I think I can quote every line from this one, aswell as my nearly-perfected intro dance. The cops

3) Zoolander
Just a generally pointless and awesome movie. Everybody should see it at least once.

4) Dumb and Dumber
I dont think I need to explain this.

5) Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back
May have been the company or the atmosphere, but at the time that I saw this, I was convinced there was nothing funnier.

1. Big Lebowski
Not a traditional comedy as such, still the funniest film i've seen though.
2. Pineapple Express
I must have seen this about 20 times. Best stoner flick.
3. Snatch
It's a tough one between this and Lock Stock but this just nicks it.
4. South Park Movie
It would be worng not to have this in here.
5. Hot Fuzz
Just beats SOTD, Pegg at his best.
