I liked 'SAM' when it first was out, but it didn't seem as funny years later, but was still entertaining.

21st Century Edition
I liked:
School of Rock Best In Show Sideways About Schmidt Also, I though maybe a list of people I find funny and people I don't might help with the psychoanalysis: Ten People I Find Funny: Chaplin Danny Kaye Jerry Lewis (the original version) Woody Allen (the original version) Zero Mostel George Carlin Mel Brooks Bette Midler Robin Williams Walter Matthau Ten People I Don't Find Funny W.C. Fields Abbott and Costello Bob Hope Milton Berle Albert Brooks Richard Pryor Chevy Chase Chris Farley Adam Sandler Ben Stiller BTW, I just saw Reign Over Me and I think Sandler was terrific, Oscar caliber performance. A little bit of a steal from Dustin Hoffman's Rain Man, but great nevertheless.

If you didn't like Airplane, The Odd Couple, and Young Frankenstein, just for starters, it's hard to imagine how you could be said to like comedy at all. [/ QUOTE ] I'm pretty sure I didn't say 'I didn't like' the above mentioned movies. Instead I wanted to cite a fairly wide generation gap between 'Something about Mary' versus the list of movies Andy mentioned, but I didn't get that across very well. Although I posted; "The only funny movies on that list were....' I think I meant to convey that the only widely appealing comedies listed were 'Blazing Saddles' and 'Groundhog's Day' but I didn't really come off that way in my post. I think it's safe to say that those are all 'classic' comedy movies, I certainly wasn't trying to imply that they weren't.

Re: 21st Century Edition
Yeah, well I'm definitely in the minority here. I didn't see much of his stand-up, so I'm judging from what I did see and from his movies. Then again, Woody Allen thinks Bob Hope was the funniest guy ever, so go figure.

Ten People I Don't Find Funny Albert Brooks Richard Pryor Chris Farley [/ QUOTE ] All three of these guys are hilarious in three completely different ways. If you don't like any of them, then you obviously just don't have a sense of humor at all. No offense. Some people just don't.

Re: 21st Century Edition
I'm sitting here thinking about Chris Farley while at lunch. I hope people around me can't hear me busting up. I loved that guy. Are you telling us you didn't like him on SNL or in Tommy Boy? Omg. I'm still pissed at him for dying.
