    My brother and I saw this movie so much as kids, that we could have performed it line by line.

    But so many good ones.

    I’ve lit farts at apres ski parties in mixed company on more than one occasion.

    I told a client the other day regarding the possibility of a successful outcome, "well, I think it's certainly better than "you're telling me there's a chance?""

    Per Tommy Boy, Farley crammed between the toilet and the wall in the airplane bathroom where all he can do is strain himself if one of the best movie scenes of all time.

    The Big Lebowski is my favorite movie, period, but that's no fun. So my answer is this:

    Lebowski is my favorite movie of those offered up for consideration, however, as funny as it can be, it's not a straight comedy if you will. Hence, my vote for Dumb and Dumber.

    I used to ride my bike after work @rodmansrage past the Mary Swanson Family Aspen mansion on Royal Street. Aspen ain't got shit on DV for luxury.

    When it came out, Dumb and Dumber made me laugh my ass off. As I go older (if not more mature), there are three movies from this era that I will sit down and watch: Lebowski, Office Space, and Axe Murderer…

    So many great comedies.
    There’s something about Mary
    Billy Madison
    South Park movie.
    Baseketball
    Dirty Work


    I guess for me it is Billy Madison.

    Totally forgot South Park: Bigger, Longer, Uncut was in this era. Hands down winner.

    Similar to Borat, I almost passed out from laughing so fucking hard at Dumb and Dumber.

    Billy Madison is also up there for me.

    I loved Wayne’s World, Austin Powers, and So I Married an Ax Murderer back in the day but I’ve tried rewatching them and Mike Myers version of comedy didn’t age well. ATBS, Ax Muderer still has some great and quotable lines.

    I recently watched twenty minutes of Austin Powers. It’s terrible. I loved it as a kid too.

    I watched it during the great kind of lockdown while desperate for content

    Agree it didn't age well

    Myers was huge in the 90s

    This came out that same year and was awesome:

    Office Space just barely edges out a few of the others. The main characters and the gags were great, but on top of that Diedrich Bader, Gary Cole, and Stephen Root were exceptionally hilarious for supporting roles. Mike Judge was apparently very detail oriented in directing this movie, too, according to some YouTube video I watched. There are no unfunny scenes in this movie.



    This scene alone got me

    I saw Austin powers 2 with a couple kids and our moms were in the row behind us laughing hysterically

    I saw all three Austin Powers movies in the theater and loved every one of them.

    They don’t hold up to the classic 90’s Sandler and Jim Carrey movies. Liar Liar is a great and underrated Jim Carrey movie.

    Unrelated, but I also watched Something about Mary a few weeks ago and it mostly held up and was funny.

    I liked the Austin Powers movies fine. I still like the 2nd the best.

    Liar Liar is probably my favorite Jim Carrey film.

    Disagree on Sandler's movies. There are moments that are as funny as it gets, like when he's beating the shit out of Mevin Nealon on the course. As far as re-watchability from start to finish, his movies don't do it for me. I just want to see the good parts.
