Movies That Everyone Thinks Are Hilarious....but You Don't.

Re: Movies That Everyone Thinks Are Hilarious....but You Don't.

I found Borat more annoying than funny. Maybe if I saw it in the theater instead of watching it on dvd it wouldve been a little better but honestly I didnt understand why so many people were saying its one of the funniest movies. Most of those people just say it because one of their friends likes it so they say they like it to fit in. Same sh*t with Napolean Dynamite, a couple of people like it, so every1 else jumps on the bandwagon and claims its a great movie. Half the sh*t in Borat has been done before by the guys from jackass but with Borat a lot of it looks staged.

 

Re: Movies That Everyone Thinks Are Hilarious....but You Don't.

^^^That reminds me, I have never found any of the Jackass movies funny. I enjoyed a few episodes of the show, but geeze the movies were really retarded. I don't why, they just weren't as funny as some of the things they did in the show.

I haven't liked any of the newer Will Ferrel movies...so..Anchorman, Talladega Nights, Blades of Glory...even though my frineds are in love with this guy...I DO like Old School with Frank the Tank...but that was old.

Napoleon Dynamite originally wasn't a wide release film. So uh, yeah, it gained popularity because well, people liked it. It's kinda like how other things become popular, so I guess you're right in that sense.I can say the opposite, too. Most people that don't like it say that they don't on the grounds that someone they know quoted it or said it was great or something. I don't know why people are so hell-bent on making a big deal about it being a popular movie. If you can't see the humor in it, then that's your problem. Maybe if you guys didn't have such a hardon for being rebellious, you would be able to crack a smile now and again.I also can't understand why people liked Shrek. It's not a particularly funny or entertaining movie.

Re: Movies That Everyone Thinks Are Hilarious....but You Don't.

I hate how people say movies are "too popular" so they aren't as funny...If the movie is funny, it's funny. You can't say it's not as good because alot of other people thought it was really funny as well.

 

Re: Movies That Everyone Thinks Are Hilarious....but You Don't.

Epic Movie. Borat wasn't as good as it was hyped, but I still sorta liked it.

Re: Movies That Everyone Thinks Are Hilarious....but You Don't.

^ Probably because people are stupid.And I watched Napoleon Dynamite when it first came out so HA. And all the kids in my class watched it because I told them to.

And is indoubly disappointed.

Re: Movies That Everyone Thinks Are Hilarious....but You Don't.

In a way Napoleon Dynamite suffers from that stigma of everyone quoting and acting like the main character ala Ace Ventura or Borat. I could see how it kills the movie for some people, annoyance after a while. But Yeah I agree, it's a crappy reason to not find a comedy funny.

I just don't watch a movie with that kind of mindset. I'd like to say that I've become a little bit more educated as far as movies go, but I have to admit there is room for opinion with basically every movie.

During the little dance scene the corner of my mouth rose a little bit in half a smile and that's all I got out of that.

Re: Movies That Everyone Thinks Are Hilarious....but You Don't.

Maybe a forced laugh to fit in. Everyone in class was LTFAO...I didn't understand why.

 

Re: Movies That Everyone Thinks Are Hilarious....but You Don't.

I don't know how someone can't laugh about a guy getting hit in the face with a steak. That's just genius physical comedy.

 

Re: Movies That Everyone Thinks Are Hilarious....but You Don't.

South Park. Movie and show, I don't get it. Stupid if you ask me.

 

Re: Movies That Everyone Thinks Are Hilarious....but You Don't.

Little Miss Sunshine. I didn't find this movie to be funny at all.
