Comedy Movies for a Saturday Night (1 Viewer)

[Umfufu]

Looking for help with a recurring problem.
Every time we get a chance to sit down & watch a movie on a Saturday night, all we want is a relaxing, funny comedy.

This is usually when I realise that everything in my DVD collection/on the DVR/on my hard drive is either a harrowing drama or has subtitles or both (still have a pile of Ingmar Bergman movies to watch).

So, I need a list of decent comedies so I can have a stockpile ready for the next time this happens (in a few hours, probably).
Doesn't matter how dumb or intellectual as long as they're funny.

Suggestions?

Mel Brooks Young Frankenstein, High Anxiety, Stir Crazy, Blazing Saddles, The Producers

Ealing stuff like Kind hearts and Coronets, Ladykillers, Arsenic and Old Lace

Midnight Run, Duck Soup, Rushmore

Have seen most of the movies mentioned so far.

I'm less likely to have seen newer movies.
Doesn't matter if they're not classics.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall was a surprise hit in our house (I'm almost ashamed to say).

Just looking for easy, funny movies.
