Just imagining...Sir Truheart..sitting around the camp fire........
Hard for me to pick one, will go for 4, 6, 7, 9 and 10. Enjoyed the others also.
Let's not forget there were Comedies before 1968.
So working backwards a bit:
The Party - Peter Sellers Long long Trailer - Lucille Ball Can't remember the name but, W.C. Fields going camping. Any one remember the "Gold Rush", just to name a few.

Hi Pedal! How's it going over there? You're so right. Also Laurel and Hardy and The Three Stoogies and the comic genius that was Charlie Chaplin. And the Marx Brothers movies - A Night At The Opera.
films that made me laugh....Ohhh all kinds a kinds
Anchorman and Blades of Glory Will Farrell films that I refused to go to but my son made me take him. Never laughed so hard..."Brick, you put the mayonnaise on the bread AFTER if comes out of the toaster"
An American oldie with Marilyn Monroe and Jane Russell, both great comediennes called Gentlemen Prefer Blondes - love the dinner scene and ship deck scene with Marilyn and the little boy, very funny.
And then a different type of humor, British - Love Actually, Bridget Jones - Jones singing on the table tops, and her gay pal holding down a ladies coat with his stool in the bar scene- love british humor,
in love actually I about died at the very thought of Hugh Grant as prime minister, but the DJ scene with Laura Linney was funny and so was everything about Colin and the ridiculous Christmas song
speaking of British humor I loved Oliver in Sweet Revenge and the horse box scene w/ Kristen Scott Thomas, but little is funnier than Bruce Tick's first day on the job
Oh and then there is a Frenchie called La Placard OMG -hilarious - never knew Gerard Depardieu could be sooo funny. That is an all star cast in that film too, as well as so funny :)
Oddly never seen a funny German or Swedish film......lol
I am sure there is much great humor out there but these were right on the tip of my tongue

Gerard Depardieu is very funny in Green Card as well. I'd rather hear Wet Wet Wet sing Love is All Around but Bill Nighy can be funny, like in The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, but this thread is for American movies. There's another one there (somewhere!) for the British ones. Some great funny old American movies. Another good one with Marilyn was Some Like it Hot. But Jack Lemon and Tony Curtis made it even funnier. Other funny women in American old movies were Doris Day and Lucille Ball and others I can't think of now. Along with Danny Kaye and The Marx Brothers. A few more current ones are: Sandra Bullock in Miss Congeniality or Speed. Melissa McCarthy can be funny.
Oops I thought I was in the American Comedy thread! Friday confusion! lol! Couldn't find the funny British movies thread so will do another one sometime.

yes I tend to get off track and I like British humor so much that I just went with it and forgot the topic
Another American film with some funny scenes was A Fish Called Wanda with Jamie Lee Curtis
Anger Management with Jack Nicholson was very funny and so was What About Bob with Bill Murray. Richard Dreyfus was so funny when Bob showed up for dinner... lol
Uma Thurman was great and hilariously funny in Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. That might be the funniest film made recently I can think of...where I was in stitches laughing
