Best comedy of the last year or two?

[franch]

DH and I are gritty arthouse addicts but always buy a great comedy for New Year's Eve. What's new that we should see?

Looking for Eric is a great film. Not really a comedy but some very funny parts.

Good choice cornsilk. Unfortunately DH went and saw it without me

"the thick of it" movie i can't remember the name of.
tell us some comedies you enjoyed to help us out.

Ah, In the Loop - good idea, haven't seen that.

Telly wise we were big Scrubs and Green Wing fans.

Anything by Mike Leigh. In Bruges. Priscilla Queen of the Desert. Lars and the Real Girl. Juno. Little Miss Sunshine. Best in Show. A Mighty Wind.

Soooo I would take it there is no point in mentioning Spinal tap then?

Erm, do they have to be new?

Anyhoo have you seen...

Ghost Town
Idiocracy
Thank You For Smoking
The Big Lebowski
Pineapple Express
The Hangover
Grosse Pointe Blank

If I think of anymore I shall be back..

No, they don't have to be new really QT.

Thanks for the suggestions, they look spot on for us - have seen Spinal Tap (of course ) and The Big Lebowski - both great. Will look into the others - let me know if you have any more!
