Funniest movies you've seen?

Remember the study about watching clowns after your ET? Those who saw the clowns had more BFPs. Well Dh and I are doing a similar study of our own. We figured that it doesn't really have anything to do with seeing a clown, but maybe about laughing. So we're trying to gather a collection of really funny movies, or anything else that will make me laugh, in an effort to increase our chances of a BFP.
I know, we sound silly. But I've definitely done dumber things in the last 2 yrs to up our odds, so why not this?
Anyways, so I was hoping you all would suggest movies or tv shows that you can't help but laugh when you see! Please and thank you!
We also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And HOPE does not dissappoint.

ace ventura
dumb and dumberer... so bad, so funny.
Haha! That one too! "Chip, I'm all jacked up on Mountain Dew!"
That's a fantastic ideal!
Here are some of my favorites:
Movies- The Hangover, Old School, Hot Tub Time Machine and Dumb and Dumber
Shows- Modern Family and Coupling (a show on BBC)
I love Coupling. Warning Spoiler:
Season 4 is all about Susan's baby so you might want to avoid it. It was kind of funny but even as someone who has never experienced pregnancy, I thought it was poorly written.
DH and I love The IT Crowd. (Another BBC comedy.)
I love all the shows and movies everyone has suggested and just wanted to add that during my IVF cycle I really avoided anything negative. I can remember my husband begging me to go see the Dark Knight with him and I just didn't want to see anything depressing/dark/violent, etc. Instead I stuck with comedies and light hearted shows. I'm not saying that is why I got pregnant but I figure it certainly didn't hurt.
Good luck!
Kelly, Mom to Christopher Shannon 9.27.06, Catherine Quinn 2.24.09, Trey Barton lost on 12.28.09, Therese Barton lost on 6.10.10, Joseph Sullivan 7.23.11, and our latest, Victoria Maren 11.15.12
Secondary infertility success with IVF, then two losses, one at 14 weeks and one at 10 weeks, then success with IUI and then just pure, crazy luck. Expecting our fifth in May as the result of a FET.
