25? Too many to try to put in order. I may like well over 25 of that genre, but I can list a top ten. Some movies are blurred in genre like Back To The Future or Ghostbusters which would have taken up three slots, but I do not consider them comedies and more aligned with other genre(s). I stuck with films that are purely comedies.

1. Blues Brothers
2. Airplane!
3. Tropic Thunder
4. Home Alone
5. The Breakfast Club (more of a dramedy)
6. Its A Mad, Mad, Mad, World
7. Elf
8. Bruce Almighty
9. Ferris Bueller's Day Off
10. Christmas Vacation

Basically like Back is sci-fi comedy and Ghostbusters being scifi fantasy horror comedy right?

Yes, exact classifications and great films just comedy is not the primary genre. BTTF 1 & 2 and GB 1 are elite classics.

My list would consist of Will Ferrell, (the original) Pink Panther and Laurel & Hardy movies. Add some Buster Keaton and Terence Hill & Bud Spencer, and there are more than 25.
