Is it really funny if...

Post by Gawdzilla Sama » Tue Aug 23, 2011 11:54 am

...it has to be pointed out to you that it is SUPPOSED TO BE FUNNY?

Woody Allen, for example. I watched one of his movies and didn't chuckle once.

No, then it's shit.

Let us think the unthinkable, let us do the undoable, let us prepare to grapple with the ineffable itself, and see if we may not eff it after all.

It's all subjective. If it needs to be pointed out, clearly it's not funny to you, but might be hilarious to someone else :dunno:

But if I don't find it funny without coaching, then you shouldn't either. :Erasb:

Woody was funny until Larry David came along and illustrated sublimely why he was not funny.

Annie Hall is funny.
Haven't seen any other Woody's.

Was that supposed to be funny?
If so, why?

Well, I loved "Whatever Works" and that was written and directed by Allen and starring Larry David. For the most part though, I've much preferred the serious stuff over his comedy since...Deconstructing Harry, probably :teef:

Never seen Annie Hall.
I thought Sleeper was hilarious when I was 12.
Ditto Everything you always wanted to know about sex but were afraid to ask.
