When I was researching this post, I came across a bunch of lists that included some of the greatest comedy duos of all time.

Who am I to argue?

While I agree that teams like Abbott & Costello are untouchable in the comedy world, I can’t just name THE all time greats.

These are MY all time greats and it includes both old and new. A classic animated pair even made the list.

Here are the Top 10 Comedy Duos:

Honorable Mention: Seann William Scott & Paul Rudd, Seth Rogen & Paul Rudd, Jackie Chan & Chris Tucker

Walter Mathau & Jack Lemmon

Vince Vaughn & Owen Wilson

Will Smith & Martin Lawrence

Kal Penn & John Cho

Michael Cera & Jonah Hill

Woody & Buzz Lightyear

John Candy & Steve Martin

Dwayne Johnson & Seann William Scott

Chris Farley & David Spade

Jim Carrey & Jeff Daniels

PS: Dumb & Dumber fans…  Can you spot all the differences between this trailer and the actual film?  There are a few of them.

It’s hard to believe that it’s been nearly 16 years since John Candy passed away.  He’s been in so many comedies I love.  He’s part of an exclusive list of people that can make you laugh so easily you feel like they’re your best friend.

Remember Barf?  There’s no way you’ve made it this far into the post and not smiled yet.

Spaceballs definitely deserves to be on this list someday.  However, today I want to discuss another absolute classic.  Uncle Buck.

Uncle Buck is a perfect Rainy Sunday flick.  Let me explain why…  Have you ever put a lot of effort into a sandwich?  I mean a giant record breaking sandwich?  Have you ever gathered the necessary amounts of cheese, crackers, pickles and baby carrots to go with it?  How about an enormous glass of milk to accompany the meal?  To me that’s a perfect lunch.  (I love sandwiches.)  The only thing better than a perfect lunch is a great movie to go with it.  I recommend Uncle Buck.

“Holy smokes!  He’s cooking our garbage…”

I categorize Uncle Buck as easy watching.  Relaxing afternoons are perfect for a good meal, a great movie and an amazing power nap once it’s over.  We’ve all been there.  You get on your couch with a blanket and before you know it, 2 hours have gone by and you wake up feeling fantastic.  (I would really love to take a nap right now.  I consider power napping a hobby)

Uncle Buck also represents one of the hardest laughing fits I’ve ever had with 2 of my close friends.  The three of us had a house in college and we used to watch movies like Uncle Buck all the time while recovering from viscious hangovers.  The following clip made us laugh non-stop for hours.  Since then we all do ‘the laugh’ whenever we think about Uncle Buck. (hee hee hee)

Uncle Buck.  Another Classic.
