Pretty much any of the popular comedy movies. The Hangover, Hot Tub Time Machine, Elf, etc.
I am so curious why you don’t like elf! I’m not looking for an argument, that’s just by far the most surprising answer in this thread to me
It just absolutely does nothing for me. Will Farrel is NOT for me
Yeah I could see folks really disliking his comedy
what baffles me is that anyone likes it at all, it's terrible from start to finish. ferrell isnt funny on his best day, there's exactly one 'joke' repeated ad nauseum, and the plot is nonsense.
I mean ultimately it’s a kids movie. The jokes are going to be shallow and loud.
i mean ultimately "it's for kids" is a sorry defense for a piece of media. there's plenty of "for kids" movies that aren't beginning-to-end low-effort unfunny schlock.
It’s more that you’re going to struggle to resonate with it as an adult. I think this conversation is getting a little too hostile lol
I don’t like Minions but I get why kids do is the thrust here.
"It's not that it's bad it's that you're incapable of getting it." yeah we're done here.
Not what I said but ok have a good one!
