Not loving Jim's wacky humor ain't the craziest thing. It is a bit weird that he loves Sandler humor in Billy Madison tho. But that's just the lof wildcard gene. You have to just roll with it. It's electric entertainment.

Jesus, not liking a particular actor's work warrants this level of outright attack?

So you're shocked what's right for you isn't for him or vice versa? Roll with it. I think you have some horrendous takes but hell your stamina to try to change people's minds or defend a choice is impressive.

It's fun dude but people really don't care.

I mean, it's tied to the person. Sandler is silly and jokey, and I like Sandler the person. Carrey is over the top and obnoxious, and I don't really like the vibe he gives off in general as a person.

What exactly are you talking about? I didn't attack or insult anyone's taste. I just stated my own taste and defended it when asked about it.

That's because he's uncomfortable in his own skin. That's where the comedy comes from.

It's because he's creepy and comes off as a manic depressive, and so when he's bouncing off the walls for laughs, it feels like an overly desperate bid for attention, which I find unsettling more than humorous.
 
We've officially entered one of those periods where what you're posting isn't making any sense anymore. I'll just skip to the part where you say it's Friday and you're drinking, and just disengage right here.

Yeah for me it's because there are so many factors that go into how much you enjoy a comedy. From your mood that day to how old you were when you saw it.

There's no doubt that The most and hardest I ever laughed at a movie was Ace Ventura. I saw it in the theater when it came out and had zero expectations because I hadn't even heard of it... I was 19 years old. It was the perfect storm.

Now it's obviously an all-time classic... change the circumstances not bad and I'm sure I don't almost die laughing.

I like Ace Ventura, but the scene in the sequel made me laughed so hard when he comes out of the Elephant.
 
I’m no movie guy. Safe to say I’ve probably watched 10% of the movie you guys have. I generally like more absurd off the wall comedy with some heart. Like Scrubs is a top sitcom for me.

Princess Bride
Dumb and Dumber
Happy Gilmore
Blazing Saddles
Hot Fuzz / World’s End
Holy Grail
1st Hangover

this ends my contribution to this topic
 
The best Carey is dark dramedy Carrey

the best Sandler is drama Sandler. Comedy Sandler from my youth doesn’t hold as much as I’d like it to and any attempt he’s made at non serious comedy since like 2000 has been awful
