Hot Fuzz is probably the best comedy movie I've seen.
What's the best comedy movie you've seen, /tv/?
>>71267475
Amazon Women on the Moon
>>71267475
>best
It's definitely up there, but best?
I always laugh hysterically when I watch it though, especially with Timothy Dalton's character.
>>71267475
It's definitely up there goddamn I love it. Burn After Reading is up there with it for me.

Blue Streak
black knight
A Knight in Camelot
Animal House is my favourite, but I recognize I only love Boone and Otter because I grew up with Bruono and Boots.
Recently, The Nice Guys was my favourite comedy.
>>71267475
it's pretty good
but if it's "the best comedy movie" you've seen, then you should go back to réddit
>>71267670
>black knight
I watched that so much growing up. What is it with Martin Lawrence and crap projects?
>>71267475
laughable man
>>71267610
the osborne cox scenes were all fantastic but i thought that the rest of the film wasn't that interesting or funny
This is my favorite. Some Like it Hot is the best though.
>>71267610
He's great in Veep.

>>71267740
Do you think she smells like cat piss? I do.

>>71267549
>especially with Timothy Dalton's character.
One day, I'm going to just marathon everything with Timothy Dalton in it because I fucking love him. He devours that fucking scenery every time I've seen him.
>>71267475
if that's the best comedy you've seen then I feel sorry for you
the thing is these movies are considered unfunny trash in britain
you, the american, only find them funny because of the zany accents and lingo
spaced/shaun of dead/hot fuzz/worlds end are to britain what big mama's house is to america and viced-versa

>the thing is these movies are considered unfunny trash in britain
Britain literally hates everything to come out of Britain, including the EU
HOT ROD!
>>71267920
Are you trolling or are you genuinely that out of touch?
Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz are endlessly quoted and considered classics.
>>71267920
I don't really care if you approve of what I find funny, but the accents and Britishisms aren't what I find funny in the movie. The movie is bursting with silly visual gags and just about every line in the movie is a set up for a joke later in the movie.
I don't even like Spaced and World's End that much.
When you assume, you make an ass out of you and me.
I genuinely enjoyed McGruber. It was an SNL skit stretched out to 90 minutes, but it was fucking funny.
>>71267920
>Any British """"""""""Humor"""""""""" is funny
Blazing Saddles is probably my all time favorite.
>>71268066
But obviously In The Look blows everything else out the water. To the point it's really not worth mentioning, because it's given.
Animal House will always be my holy grail. Airplane is a close second. Hot Shots Part Deux gets an honorary mention, because the first time I saw the opening with Saddam I lost my shit.
Also Borat, This Is Spinal Tap, and Life of Brian.
>>71267920
>you, the american, only find them funny because of the zany accents and lingo
Why are you making assumptions? Certainly it couldn't be the dialogue, or the CONSTANT foreshadowing of events.
>Swear box, all proceeds go to the church
>[shot of Angel slamming coin into the box]
>Leslie Tiller was FUCKING murdered
>Nicolas Angel chasing the shoplifter
>He finds the swan he and Butterman never caught
>Actually takes a second whether or not to catch the swan or the shoplifter
>Everyone and their mum's packing 'round here
>Later on in the film the with farmer guy who is part of the city's council, his mother tries to gun down Angel with a shotgun
And this shit is everywhere. Not even foreshadowing stuff, just general progression like when Angel is asking all of the ages of the patrons in the pub, etc.
>>71268066
McGruber was the first good SNL movie since Wayne's World.
>>71267819
Most people say cigarettes or rape.
I think it's more like strawberries.
>>71267830
You mean 3?
>>71267777
>nobody checking them digits
For shame
>>71267999
yeah that scene is the climax of the unfunnyness
>>71268117
That's definitely the hallmark of their comedy, endless throwbacks and references and subtle foreshadowing. I really enjoyed it when I figured out the pub names in The World's End.
>>71268154
There's no helping you then, man.
>>71267777
Impressive
>>71268117
Edgar Wright is a comedic genius. He just is.

>>71268066
no lie i fucking hated this movie, i understood that it was purposefully stupid and still fucking hated it
Dodgeball
>>71268208
I unironically think Meaning of Life is better than either of those.
>>71267920
I haven't seen this pasta in a while.
Maybe it's time that I take a break from 4chan.
>>71267475
In Bruges. I would say "The Guard" but I can't understand their fucking accents
I feel like the best comedy film should be one which doesn't rely on pop culture references or parodying so it will still be good in 100 years
It's very difficult picking out the best, but here are three I found extremely funny:
Ferris Buehler's Day Off
Tucker & Dale vs Evil
Airplane!
>>71267475
Tropic Thunder
>>71268245
>that opening with chapman giving the mother shit for trying to enforce gender roles on her newborn child
Ahead of their time.
What We Do In the Shadows
others
Hotrod
MacGruber
Step Brothers
40 Year Old Virgin
Anchorman
Zoolander
Blades of Glory
21 Jump Street
Dodgeball
Tropic Thunder
no specific order, but generally comedy movies are better when they are fresh or current year
>>71268260
I really enjoyed The Guard but didn't find it funny. It's more of a tragedy than a buddy cop imo
>>71268272
Hot Fuzz doesn't rely on the action cop movie genre's existence to be funny. It's only enriched by it. It's a perfectly competent movie without the parody angle.
>>71267475
this and monty python and the holy grail re my favorite comedies
Best? Dr. Strangelove. My favorite? Waiting for Guffman
>>71268302
I'm sad when I think about the shitty sequels some of these movies got.

Cigarettes and cat piss then. Definitelly not strawberrys. Cheap cigarettes, store bought beer and cat piss. Man I want to fuck her so bad.
>>71268497
>M Night Shyamalan
The scene is maybe 1/3rd into the film.
anyone try watch this shit? couldn't make it past twenty minutes and I've been eating Andy Samberg's shit since Lazy Sunday.

Aged very poorly, but it was pretty great when it came out. Some films just don't stand the test of time. Try watching American Pie again, holy fuck.

Ant-Man was fun but it still makes me sad of what it could have been with Wright's genius at the helm.

I know you're about 14 because of this opinion. I have literally never met anyone 20+ who didn't like Shaun or Hot Fuzz. World's End I will grant, is divisive.

One part of Hot Fuzz that bothers me every time I watch it is the part during the climax, right when he comes into town, where there's the shop lady shooting at him from the window. All the kids run into her store at the same time, and the prime joke here is that there's been a sign there all movie that says "Only ONE school child at a time" and like 10 of them run in at the same time.
But all the kids running in causes the woman to fly backwards from the window like she was hit from something while yelling. I just never got it.
Honestly? The South Park movie. When Matt and Trey were at their creative peak and felt like they had nothing to lose so just made what they wanted to make.
The result is the funniest movie I've ever seen, tbqhwy senpai
>>71269928
The sequel is worth a watch if you haven't seen it. Few recycled jokes as expected but a fantastic parody of the future and has some great laughs. Obviously not as good as the original
>>71267920
good job baiting all these retards
>>71269989
my n word
I'm sure its been done to death and back, but "yeeeeaaaaah..." is still my favorite quote to the day
>>71268381
it's not a tragedy Calvary was a tragedy, The Guard is def a comedy one of the best
>>71268787
Legitimately one of my top 5 favourite Comedy movies. I quote with mates still after seeing it years ago.
"YOU SEE THAT SHIT? I THREW THAT BEFORE I EVEN WALKED IN THE ROOM?"
>>71267475
Super Troopers
Police Academy 2
A Good Day to Die Hard
>>71270095
The idea is that they run upstairs and pull her down from the window
The reason there isn't a pause from them coming into the shop and her actually being yanked back is
because it's funnier for it to be a quicker shot and not hold on her for too long just to be realistic
>>71270483
That's what I figured, that they just grabbed her, but it's not a particularly funny conclusion. Thought there was some other joke I was missing.
>>71267475
Life of Brain
>>71270635
It's just a quickly-edited visual gag. Don't put too much thought into it, Wright didn't. There's so much going on in that sequence as is.
>>71270833
Really need to get around to this. I know it's great, just haven't seen it.
The Big Lebowski makes me die laughing just from the characters talking. Don't think I've seen a movie I've laughed more watching.
>>71270872
i went to a sleep away camp so it makes it even funnier,
>>71267610
This scene is supposed to be funny?
>>71268070
>memeing saddles

>>71267610
Burn after reading . How about I just take a nap instead.
>>71267475
Miss March has some of the best lines, but The Civil War on Drugs is consistently good and I think I like every scene.
BASEketball is good too.
Seven Psychopaths.
This movie is so underappreciated it's killing me.
Sam Rockwell's acting and dialogue was mindblowingly funny.

>>71273064
I don't I've ecer seen Colin Farrel in a bad movie honestly. Those were amazing, also The Lobster is one of the recent movies that successful managed to be both avant garde and accessible.
I mean even even Phone Booth wasn't """"bad""" it was mostly average.
>>71273106
>only 80 minutes long

if parodies count either spaceballs or loaded weapon 1 for me
Clerks
>>71273428
Spaceballs ain't that good. I'll bet you haven't even seen Star Wars
>>71273516
spaceballs is parodying every sci-fi space movie not just star wars
>>71267920
it's just a pasta guys, don't fall for it.

the scene wheregeorge clooney kills brad pittwas so abrupt it made me burst in laughter.

holy shit, Withnail and I is so fucking depressing it makes the british version of the office look like a lighthearted romp.
worth for for vernon dursley as a rapey old bastard though, and the camberwell carrot is pretty classic
