I found the Hangover to be not funny

Recommended Posts

Favorite comedies:

 

The Big Lebowski. Maybe not the funniest movie but it is technically a comedy and one of my favorite movies.

 

The Naked Gun and Airplane.

 

There were some great early Eddie Murphy movies: 48 Hours, Trading Places, Coming to America.

 

Loved Borat.

 

Love Team America World Police.

 

Young Frankenstein is my favorite Gene Wilder movie.

 

Vacation and Christmas Vacation.

 

Harold and Kumar for straight up stupid comedy.

 

Many more.

If you wanna go really back in the day the Marx Brothers movies were comedy genius

I just saw that John Polito, who played the private investigator in The Big Lebowski and Johnny Casper in Miller's Crossing, and a bunch of other roles in Coen Bros movies, died yesterday. I use "gave me the high hat" all the time. :(

Can we all agree that the 3 stooges was never funny?

 

and whomever decided to remake that should be kicked out of Hollywood.

 

....And his synagogue.

Hangover was mediocre, but Old School is a comedic masterpiece :nono:

I like the first half hour or so, then it turns into pretty much the same dumb Porkys style comedy it was parodying and gets old real real fast.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail

 

Stupid?

 

Or

 

Comedy gold?

 

I freakin loved it. However a lot of younger people, my wife included, don't like it and find it stupid.

English humor is not funny

This. Except when they sped up Benny Hill and did the circus song.

It's a scientific fact that the only people who find Monty Python funny are significantly smarter than the average person.

 

The converse can be said about current American Sit-coms.

I find wimmens in general have horrible senses of humor.

 

Did you know that the topology of male vs. female brains is different? Vastly so.

 

It's true. It's not just comedians and husbands thinking so, it's actually true.

 

There's a reason why those stereotypes (both good and bad) exist.

 

I think part of it is because women are too focking literal when it comes to satire. I also think it's because they 'feel' more whereas men are raised ripping on each other - and don't generally take it perrsonally - whereas broads take everything as having some kind of hidden, deeper meaning.

 

For me, I tend to find that humor appreciation - and the kind of humor one appreciates or doesn't - speaks a lot to intelligence.

 

Not always, but often.

 

There's a reason why The Big Bang Theory is AMURICAS NUMBER ONE COMEDY!!! YUK YUK! :doh:

Yeah, you're right; She ain't that funny, but she's got a goosh like a velvet sack of cats.

If there were a gold medal for Kegel Exercises, your broad would be Michael Phelps.

 

But the stretch marks? Yeouch. Every time we ganoosh, it's like Dancing With the Scars.

Big Bang Theory is just awful. They have clips of the show without the laugh track and it shows just how insufferable the show is.

A Fish Called Wanda never got the credit it deserves. Everyone in that film nails their part.

Before when I degraded English humor and MP in general I was going to give AFCW a pass.

 

Another chip up your nose !

I don't think I get Office Space. Some of my buddies who I usually completely see eye-to-eye with think it's hilarious and I think it's just okay. They've worked in that environment though. I think that's the difference.

Office space is the opposite environment I work in and I thought it was hilarious.

Not quite gold, but pretty good if you're in the right mood. Same with The Meaning of Life and Life of Brian.

 

I'll add Napoleon Dynamite and Superbad to the list of sh!tty comedies. Office space was mediocre, but I think Parrot is right about needing to work in that environment to appreciate it.

There's something about mary

meet the parents

old school

hangover

office space

 

all excellent when they came out. nowadays they can give me a little chuckle, but lost their novelty. not a fan of rogen or jonah hill. i like jason segal more as a writer than actor.
