This year American filmakers brought movie lovers well over 275 films. From this collection, I think at least seventy, maybe more, are meant to tickle our funny bones. The following are some of the best good comedies made this year.
MADAGASCAR: ESCAPE 2 AFRICA: This is obviously the next in the sequence to the box office hit Madagascar. Our cast of lost animals, Alex (Lion), Marty (Zebra), Glorial (Hippo), and Melman (Giraffe) want to return to New York’s famous Central Park Zoo, putting an end to thier incredible adventure. Instead, as the Penguins are up to their old tricks, they find themselves going to their true homeland, Africa.
PINEAPPLE EXPRESS: Heavy pot smoker Dale Denton, in a stroke of bad luck, has seen a crooked police man, and the local drug king pin, kill someone. He was spotted, and they know he has seen the killing. Knowing they’ve seen him, he drops his joint of pineapple express, and he flees. This joint is such a unique type of weed, that the bad guys can trace it. The chase is on, as Dale and his dealer Saul are on the run.
HAMLET 2: Unsucessful actor Dana Marshz now finds himself teaching theater classes at the high school to uninspired high schoolers. When the high school loses a major building, the powers to be feel the theater curriculum will have to go. With a challenge now in front of him, he sets out to keep the school from dropping his classes by producing Hamlet 2, an original interpretation of the Shakespeare classic, which is his own work.
GET SMART: Maxwell Smart, as agent 86, is back, “and loving it”. The classic James Bond spy spoof, gadgets galore, and the cone of silence. It is is a fun look back at the world of KAOS and CONTROL.
TROPIC THUNDER: With a collection of acting greats this movie is a spoof on vietnam war movies. In order to inspire the over rated cast of actors to see the movie be a success, the now venturesome director into the middle of nowhere, leaving them to fend for themselves. The goal is to scare them so they will produce a work of genius, that will be recorded on hidden cameras. When the director steps on an old land mine and dies, the spoiled actors are on their own, and they start acting, thinking it’s a big set, when things start to get very real. Written, directed, and acted in, by Ben Stiller.
STEP BROTHERS: Two forty year old child adults, who still live with their single parents, will now have to share a room because their parents have wed, you can only imagine the mess. With Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly playing the parts, and the table is set for lots of laughs. This comedy looks like a sure fire bet for a good time this year.

These movies, and virtually any other movie ever made, are accessable for purchase, rent, or you can even down load movies right onto your hard drive. Dowloading movies off of the web has quickly become one of the most popular ways or getting films. Look on the web for sites to start getting free downloads. This is a very good way to build a massive library of films.
