      2 very funny movies didn't make the list. A very funny and apparently, "under the radar" movie called Deadman On Campus and an older but extremely funny "The Great Race". For those of you who have not seen this, Jack Lemmon as Professor Fate, is probably the funniest preformance in the history of cinema.

      "Christmas Vacation" was way funnier than "Vacation" which I personally thought was a bit of a dud. I own a copy of "Christmas Vacation" and the wife and I watch it every year as part of our favourite Christmas movie line up and it never fails to amuse. "Christmas Vacation" is a comedy classic; "Vacation" - not so much.
    9. This should be a Top 3. For those that have not seen it, watch it. It has all the great stars of that era.
    10. This should be in the top 5. This movie was incredibly funny..
