What is the movie Dr. Strangeglove about?

The funniest possible subject of all.......nuclear armageddon.

It's sort of a spoof on another movie "Failsafe", in which American long range nuclear bombers are accidently sent to bomb Russia.

you guys mentioned some movies I missed

National lampoon's vacation, and christmas vacation

raising arizona

bull durham

major league

and a recent one I just watched was Adaptation. That was a great movie. It's not the slapstick kind of funny. It was a brilliantly written film- narcisism and all.

Most of mine are already mentioned. But I do recommend Adaptation. It's even better if you "get it". There's something that happens 2/3 of the way throught he movie that explains why it ended the way it did, and why the characters seem so out of character.

signs was funny... even more so since my sister was scared while i was laughing. intergalatic aliens invade earth but can't open a door and their main form of attack is sticking their appendages through cracks/windows/etc. of course water ends up killing them all in the end. isn't there water in the air?

I bet all the gay ones know!

Hey, I have her disco album on CD.

Anyway,

The funniest movie I've ever seen is still Airplane! I've seen it 20 times and it still invokes fits of hysterical laughter in me.
