Spike was also angry about Django, and when Jackson heard about it he responded by saying Spike hadn't made a good movie "in a few years"

I thought Jackson stole the show from Leo

"Ole Mary Todd, that's a nice touch. Heh."

I'll link it for you

Good lord, is liking Dodgeball a punishable offense around here now? It's terrific.

Isn't the central story of the police investigation resolved in the same scene? Cage's boss, the police chief, appears before him suddenly laughing (before the bookie has even left the room flashing thousands of dollars in a police station and also laughing) saying the crack pipe with xzibit's fingerprints on it was…

Agree to disagree I guess. I don't think Herzog cared at all about any dramatic stakes, and to say the different plot strands were resolved "somewhat off-handedly" seems generous when every single lingering character Cage had a conflict with basically lined up outside his office single file and marched in one after…

It's pretty much just an Airplane! style parody of the genre.

Budd was great!

They're both pretty dark and looney. I can see how the Coens would have drawn influence from Strangelove.

where's THE LEGO MOVIE

Somehow, it doesn't surprise me that someone with a Bernie Sanders avatar would only laugh twice during Wet Hot American Summer

Shrek seems like one of those movies that missed out on a list like this because of lingering bad will from the sequels. That first movie was really funny and really well regarded at the time (even got nominated for best screenplay).

"let's go get a drink and smoke a cigarette" is pretty much what my older brother says every time we're all together somewhere again

Adventureland/Zombieland/Social Network happened and Cera could never recover from those haymakers

"in the tradition . . ." is a pretty wide tent

I'll make a plug for Beer League starring Artie Lange, only because I can be seen walking down the boardwalk and turning my head in his direction in surprise when he squirts a carny at a booth in the nuts with a water gun and steals a teddy bear for his date.

Maybe. The criteria isn't comedies that made you laugh the most or the funniest, and it's certainly one of the best made films on this list.

Yeah, it was viewed as a comeback of sorts at the time. Nominated for Best Original Screenplay. A write up on the merits of "Cassandra's Dream" would be a real contrarian view.

The whole "can it properly be labeled a comedy thing" makes it tricky. Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans made me laugh out loud as much as any movie, especially the scene where every single one of Cage's dangling plot conflicts literally walks up to him and resolves their beef, all in a row. But that final…
