Woody Allen has funny moments, but I can't sit thru an entire film. He is best as a contributing writer. Can't stand him as an actor or a person in general.

Woody has been hit or miss. Zelig and Radio Days were both funny!  The rest? Eh...

No need for Benny Hill the  guy was a waste of oxygen even back when I watched him as a kid in the 60's/70's.

Early mid-Seventies when he was just going for laughs is the best - Play It Again, Sam; Bananas; Take the Money and Run; Sleeper; Love and Death.  Funny in Casino Royale too as Jimmy Bond.

I never found Woody Allen or Benny Hill to be all that amusing.

However, I think that Larry David is hilarious. I guess it's a thin line between funny and not funny for me.

The funniest thing he ever did was What's Up, Tiger Lily.  He took a Japanese spy movie and re-edited it and dubbed in totally different dialogue and made a whole other movie out of it.  It's very crazy and extremely funny and off kilter.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FPmp9FMRcA&feature=related    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvxWz-zRHBY&feature=related
