Yeah i’ll never argue “better” or “worse” when it comes to something as subjective as comedy - i was more pushing back on the idea that Zack and Miri is somehow more quoted and remembered than those movies I listed. Like it or not Bridesmaids is seen as like a seminal “female” comedy of the last 20 years. There’s a Tom Cruise Les Grossman reference or callback like every time Cruise comes back out with a new movie and WWDITS spawned a very successful TV show spinoff. Don’t think I’ve heard anything about ZaM in literally prob 7-8 years.

I tend to agree the in your face comedies like Other Guys are typically overrated and I prefer more subtle stuff as well

When I say more quotable, I don't mean by the general public. The reason why I posted this last night was I had a back and forth exchange just firing off quotes from ZaM with my buddy as he was watching it. I mean, you had the "I'll tell you what just happened in there! That chick just frosted me like I was a ******* CAKE!" line that just lives forever with my buddies and I. Or the "I like that dude but if he ****s that dog I'm calling the humane society." lmao.

I rattled off the entire Glengarry Glen Ross quote from Justin Long without looking it up too and then Seth Rogan's "is that a sequel?" response just kills me every time. 

I dunno, man. I think it's severely underrated and it may be due to the nature of the content in the film and not the comedy itself. Not easy to bring up a movie about porn in everyday conversation lmao.

That is the worst ranking list I’ve ever seen. It goes:

A Nightmare on Elm Street, Freddy vs Jason, New Nightmare and nothing else exists.

just did a double feature of scorsese's bringing out the dead and sidney lumet's before the devil knows you're dead

this was completely coincidental... i was planning on watching bringing out the dead and then my roommate put on before the devil knows you're dead after 

but...

* both movies have dead in the title
* both movies have a scene where a character goes to a drug den to do heroin 
* both movies end with a character turning off someone's life support and putting the heart monitors on their chest and the breathing apparatus on themselves so the person dies on the low

i couldn't believe they ended the same exact way that was absolutely ******* wild i watched those back to back 

anyway bringing out the dead was tremendous. loved it. before the devil knows you're dead was pretty solid. got a tad tedious for me in the 2nd act but came thru big in the end.

Finished On Stranger Tides last night and it really wasn’t that good. This first hour of the movie felt like one big chase/ action scene that went on way too long for my liking, also the movie felt so empty I don’t know how else to put it, it was definitely missing something.
