Breakfast Club has many hilarious scenes.
But movies like Terminator, Friday the 13th, Full Metal Jacket, etc, have nothing to do with comedies in any way, shape or form.
Goonies Never Say Die!
Funny,I still don't consider it a comedy,but more of a drama.

Goonies Never Say Die!
One of the BEST movies EVER!!!!!!
*but i'm not a Goonie*
Friday The 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan can pass as a comedy
