Throwing out all pretention, what is the movie you've laughed the hardest and longest at?

I say throwing out all pretentions because while we all love Dr. Strangelove and other highbrow comedies, I scarcely believe that they're the kinds of movies that give you constant, almost to the point of being uncomfortable, belly laughs.

Going purely by hardest I've laughed and longest I've laughed I think I have it narrowed down to two movies:

Jackass 2: I was pretty much the perfect age for this when it came out and I was going through quite a tomboy phase. This movie made me laugh until it hurt.

Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit the Glorious Nation of Kazakstan.

I'm not sure i've ever laughed at a movie to be honest. I like funny movies but just inside my head i guess.

Anyway. Hot Fuzz.

Don't think it's a common choice, but What we do in the shadows had me laughing my ass off since the first few lines. Just hit the perfect spot for me.

The most I can remember laughing at a film is probably some kind of tie between:
Borat
The Naked Gun
Anchorman.

The first time I watched each of them I can remember struggling to breathe at points.

I'm not sure anything will make me laugh as much as being 15 years old, with a huge group of friends at an opening night showing of South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut.

It's a toss up between Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and The Nice Guys. Shane Black is a genius and RDJ & Val Kilmer and Gosling & Crow respectively elevate his work even further.

I love comedies but I'm having a real hard time figuring out what the funniest movie I've ever seen is, which is kinda sad. As I've gotten older my taste in comedy has changed. I'm assuming stand up specials or whatever are kinda cheating. Walk Hard, Step Brothers, Anchorman, and Talladega Nights all seemed to be some of my favorites that come to mind though. Going back a couple more years Adam Sandler ruled my childhood.

I'll never forget my first time watching Kung Pow. My family and friends continue to quote that movie relentlessly so many years later.

Oh and also the Nicolas Cage remake of The Wicker Man.

It really depends on the environment Im in. Im laughing a hell of a lot more when Im watching a movie with a group of friends compared to being alone.

But yeah, There's something about Mary and Happy Gillmore destroyed me.

The Jerk.
I'll never get the love for Borat - 45 minutes into it neither I or my now ex-wife had even cracked a smile before turning it off.

Pee Wee's Big Adventure, probably. I've been watching it for like 30 years and basically every part of it is still funny to me.

Probably not the funniest movies I've ever seen, but both Don't be a Menace and Death to Smoochy will probably always be my two favorite comedies.

I think Borat is one of the films that has most made me laugh out loud.

The first time I ever watched Borat, that was a riot all the way through. I wonder if I would find it funny now?

Hard to say but Old School, MP: The Holy Grail and Men in Tights are up there.

Edit: Also naked gun.

Edit 2: Oh yeah, how could I forget Kung Fu Hustle?
