Good ones in that list, but "La Vita è bella" regarded as comedy? :dunno:

Just realised that was a different link. This is the AFI website's list:

Decent list but I wouldn't have Tootsie that high.

DR. STRANGELOVE & Airplane would be two more of my favourites which both made the top 10.

Yes....weird list. I mean....African Queen, Stalag 17, The Graduate, Back to the Future....comedies??? Not by my standard. :dunno: :wtf: :dunno:

I guess I would have to go with National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. I bust a gut every time I see it. Chevy Chase at this best.
