    No, you're normal like the rest of us.

          • I'll give my list of favorite comedies. Admittedly, my list has a decidedly 1990s-onward bias, and I tend to enjoy absurdist humor (hence Anchorman).

            In no particular order:

            Anchorman
            Old School
            Tommy Boy
            Best in Show
            Dumb & Dumber
            Billy Madison
            Office Space
            Kingpin
            Dodgeball
            Supertroopers
            Waiting
            Dirty Works
            There's Something about Mary
            Groundhog Day
            And yes, I'll admit it, The Brady Bunch Movies with Gary Cole and Shelly Long

            I'm sure that I'm fogetting a few.

            As for older comedies:
            Blazing Saddles
            Airplane
            Naked Gun
            The Jerk
            Planes, Trains, and Automobiles
            National Lampoon's Vacation and Christmas Vacation

            • Brady Bunch?

              okay I admit to liking those movies as well.

              didn't care for old school. It just wasn't funny for me. I love him on SNL, but he just doesn't work in movies. He was kind of good in his small part on Wedding Crashers, but he still didn't pull off the role that great.

              And Billy Madison. the only Adam Sandler that is any good. Probably because of Norm Mcdonald and Chris Farley. Sandler was one of the weaker chars in the film.

                You reminded me of another movie to add to my list: Dirty Works. It starred Norm MacDonald as the proprietor of a revenge-for-hire business. Farley had a small role in it as well. The movie was a complete box office flop- I think it was in the theaters for two weeks- but I think that it's funny, especially if you like Norm MacDonald.
