Thor 7,478 Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I don't think I've ever made a Top 5 comedy list, but when asked what my favourite comedy is, I tend to answer THE GODS MUST BE CRAZY, both the first and second film. I've rarely laughed as much, but it's been AGES since I saw both of them. Holko 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Stu 15,495 Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Maybe I'm a bad nerd, but I can't stand Weird Al. He's like the Country Crock margarine of comedy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quintus 5,399 Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 He's a US phenomenon with some expired notoriety in the UK. I'm indifferent, but I did a have good laugh with UHF back in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 No Weird Al album is essential listening. At their very best, they're good for a brief chuckle before I move on with my life. I will admit I like the Star Wars song, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're not a bad nerd. Just a bad person! Actually, though, I generally find his originals and "stylistic parodies" funnier and a little more biting than the parodies. But his congeniality is really the whole appeal, obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 One of the least deserving cult classics ever made. But I've definitely discussed my dislike of that awful movie before.
