In my opinion, the only movie I find to be even close to making me laugh as much as his movie is Anchorman.
Other than that, everything else falls short. (Though I do believe The Life Of Brian is brilliant as well). -

There would be um .. ahah well there's no not really..perhapsnaw..not quite.
No this IS the funniest movie I've ever seen or expect to. Only Blazing Saddles is close enough to vie for the funniest ever. Holy Grail, when I saw it when it was new, was the only time I ever literally saw people fall down in the theater aisles rolling in laughter. It holds up over the years.
The next funnist films for me would be:
Duck Soup
Young Frankenstein
The Life of Brian
Animal House

From top of my head Airplane!, This Is Spinal Tap, The Big Lebowski, Borat, Four Lions Strangely or not, Ive never found Holy Grail - or any other MP movie, for that matter - to be quite the tops in terms of the sheer laugh-out-loud ratio. The surreal, subversive idiocy of it all goes a mighty long way, however as does the piercing historical/social/political satire.

I agree with many of the other posts but I am surprised to not see any mention of this one yet:
The Jerk (1979) with Steve Martin
The funniest movies are yes, silly and intelligent, but honestly I feel The Jerk has what Holy Grail sometimes lacks and that's restraint. There is too much silliness for the sake of silliness alone in The Holy Grail, and I will admit I think the funniest thing it has to offer are Chapman's facial expressions.
