I'm actually not big on comedies. I'm going to consider "black comedies" among these, too, as well as a film that isn't a comedy but is still funnier than almost every one I've seen.

1. Dr Strangelove
2. Holy Grail
3. Young Frankenstein
4. Office Space
5. Pulp Fiction

Runners-Up: South Park, Airplane!, Saddles, Life of Brian, Deuce Bigalow, American Beauty, Napoleon Dynamite, As Good As It Gets.

You ranked Pulp Fiction as a comedy? And it's funnier than Airplane!, Blazing Saddles, and Life of Brian?
