Otto Von Jizzmark posted:Dumb and dumber I absolutely love Dumb and Dumber but the uncut version was pretty terrible. Jokes cut exactly when they were supposed to in the original and went on way too long in the uncut version. The whole Sea Bass thing (with Carey later found sucking his thumb in the fetal position) was hilarious, but the whole "Sea Bass wearing a leopard thong" thing was too much ~wackiness~ and was kinda dumb. I literally threw out the original version DVD when I bought the uncut one and bought the old one again because the uncut one doesn't have the theatrical version in it. I cannot wait for the sequel coming in November. I am praying it doesn't suck. I think Jimmy Fallon is showing the first official trailer sometime this week. The subtle stuff in Dumb and Dumber is what makes it so amazing. Jim Carey dry heaving when he sees Jeff Daniels with Mary. Jim Carey asking Mary if she's busy and he peers his head into the house and looks around. Gets me every time.

Op, I've sentenced posters younger than you to the gas chamber. Didn't want to do it. I felt I owed it to them Because you're a stupid gently caress. HalPhilipWalker posted:Duck Soup is the funniest film of all time. I havent seen Duck Soup but this line is brilliant and makes me realise how stupid I am for not watching the Marx Brothers.

I just watched What About Bob and it holds up pretty well. I'm going to check out The Man Who Knew Too Little next but I suspect that one aged very well because Bill Murray is just acting like himself for that whole film.

The Super Mario Bro's movie is still hilarious due to how bad it is. Speaking of which, was the movie The Pest ever funny? I don't remember much about it except the sexually confused rich kid and snakes.

ZombieParts posted:I just watched What About Bob and it holds up pretty well. Most Bill Murray movies age well because the humor comes from his personality and not the script. Scrooged is a super dumb movie but it works because Murray delivers every line with absolute sincerity, up to and including the line where he demands someone staple antlers to the head of a mouse.

Has anyone seen a Police Academy movie recently? I'm kinda curious to do so, because I am sure they are now absolutely terrible when back in the day they were pretty funny. No evidence though.

I heard an interview with Bobcat Goldthwait recently, he said he would have tried to be funnier in the Police Academy movies if he knew people would still be talking about them in 2014.

Still funny: Abrahams & Zuckers films. Not still funny: Airplane II. Actually I take that back, Airplane II was never funny at all (except maybe for each joke directly copied from the original) and Ken Finkleman can go to HELL.

BigBoss posted:I don't think anyone considers Police Academy some sort of timeless classic like the shitheaps Animal House and Caddyshack. The premise of this thread is not classics that are not classics, but rather simply funny movies that are no longer funny. Police Academy movies were once funny - this is a box office fact, backed by the insane number of sequels. However, are they still funny? No one knows, apparently.

Not just Duck Soup, but all the Marx bros movies are still funny. Groucho was a comedic genius, possibly the greatest ever.

I just watched Caddyshack for the first time and I don't think either my wife or me laughed a single time. Bill Murray's character, clearly intended to be the zany comic relief, was just odd. I pitied him. Caddyshack Funniness 0/10
