Imagine thinking office space and Shaun of the dead are bad but liking step brothers and the hangover movies.

I feel extremely bad for you.


I thought the exact same thing lol. Kid has special taste

I never said office space is bad, I love that movie


:bonk:

Apparently you can't even follow your own rankings.

You literally gave Shaun of the Dead, Office Space and 3 other films a 2/10 rating.... Which are leagues better than anything on the list you applauded as the winner of this thread.

No offence, but the list he rated the best contained a lot of better movies than your list. Your list went wrong mainly on something about marry and zombieland. The other 3 you mentioned are fine.

I wouldn't give your list a 2/10. He probably really dislikes the 2 I mentioned.

How long has it been since you’ve actually watched any of those movies? Outside Tropic Thunder and the Other Guys (arguably Anchorman, but it’s 6/10 at best), none of them hold up. Austin Powers was funny as a 12 year-old kid, but anyone who considers that a comedy great should probably graduate from middle-school before. The same guys for Team America and Borat, they had initial shock value that’s LONG since passed and you’ll be hard pressed for laughs on any subsequent viewings.

A truly great comedy is one that either helped redefine the genre, or one that at least still holds up. I tossed in a couple of personal favorites that make me laugh for various stupid reasons, and that traditionally wouldn’t be considered great. That being said, whether or not you agree with the entire list, two of the films I listed at the bare minimum are vastly superior to every single entry on the “best” list. Leading to an objectively shit tier grading scale, especially after admitting that he likes those two films.

Be blunt and say what it is, there was one, maybe two movies on the list he disliked, which made him irrational. Main point being that the opinion of someone who critiques in this manner, is worth precisely nothing.

Now there’s a top tier comedy

Uncle Buck probably my favorite John Candy, but this is a stupidly close second

I also fucking LOVED cool runnings as a kid, but it does not hold up lol.

Damn, you had to ruin it though. I know loads of people consider Monty as some of the best comedy out there, but I could never get into it. It’s got a handful of entertaining moments in each film, but it’s possibly a bit too dated for me. Kind of like Mel Brooks films, there’s still some funny moments and what they did for comedy is undeniable, but most of them can’t get a laugh out of me anymore. Just my opinion though

Cool runnings is a classic feel good story, but I wouldn't consider it a John Candy driven film.
