Low Brow Humor (such as Joe Dirt, Scary Movie 1 + 2, American Pie/Wedding, and A Dirty Shame)

It seems like it only appealed to my in my youngling and pre-teen years, but as I got older I found it less funny.

You know, Seltzer and Miramax comedy.

I can say one thing though, even after all of the fart, cock and sperm jokes got old in other movies, I still found Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back funny and I can never watch it and not laugh.

    But it's ok, because the public wants it, so that's ok!

    Yes, I am very very bitter.

    Glaives are better.
    And because you find mature humor funny now that you're more mature, this bugs you?

    No. I just don't know why I don't find that funny anymore. I don't groan, I don't facepalm or shake my head or laugh ironically, it just lost it's humor. Is it because I've seen it already? Is it because new low brow stuff isn't funny anymore?

    "Scary Movie 1 + 2"

    Does that mean 3 and 4 are the pinnacle of comedy?
  • MyrmidonMyrmidon
    Scary Movie 3 certainly is.

    3 + 4 are PG-13, and don't have the ballsack scene, a clown getting strangled with a yard-long penis, a girl giving head to a guy in a wheel chair, a redneck getting covered in shit because the bomb he was going to detonate was actually a septic tank, gay uncomfortable bonding moments between two guys,  or ghosts having sex with slutty valley girls.

    Yeah, this is going to derail things, but CAN people in wheelchairs enjoy sex, even if they're paralyzed below the waist?
  • AHRAHR
    depends on the severity of the condition. Some can, some can't.

    ~hehehe~

    Of course people in wheelchairs can enjoy sex... some of them just can't "Have" sex

    Unfortunately my dad is squarely in the lowest common denominator these writers cater to.  I find it eternally depressing.

    @Bee: so he doesn't have taste, so what? at least he's enjoying himself.

    Christopher Walken was still funny in Joe Dirt, though.

    Ergo, every lowbrow comedy needs Christopher Walken in it to liven things up.

    Fixed.

    FTFY.

    They're somethin' else.
    I always tend to groan whenever I hear a dick joke in Judd Apatow comedies. They're never as funny the second time around.

    While I don't dislike them as much as romantic comedies, I do think that the genre is rather stale. However, I still think Scary Movie, Scary Movie 3, and American Pie are funny. 
  • BeeBee
    Scary Movie 1 and 3 had some legitimately great moments at least.

    MORONS! I'VE GOT MORONS ON MY PAYROLL!
    I enjoy lowbrow humor when properly executed. A fart can be funny if timed well.
