What comedy should I buy? - Blu-ray Forum

Phatferd · 12-31-2008, 06:56 PM

I have some gift cards and really want to pick up a comedy since the last handful of films I grabbed were dramas and action.

I feel like I have narrowed it down to Wedding Crashers and Forgetting Sarah Marshall. I've seen both at least 3 times each and love them about the same. I am torn on this one, I need your help!

Get Ghost Town! That is a good comedy

shadow72 · 12-31-2008, 07:05 PM

If I had to chose, I'd go with Wedding Crashers. However, I have both ordered from Amazon and am awaiting their arrival.

That's hard. I love Kristin Bell and Isla Fisher... and haven't seen FSM so I can't say which is better.

Young Frankenstein

I thought Wedding Crashers was pretty mediocre. Funny at times, unfunny most of the time.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall is not only one of the funniest moves ever made, but had wonderful dramatic moments and terrific characters as well. A rich, sophisticated film all around.

I would say go for Tropic Thunder while the other choices are good I thought this was the pure winner of best comedy of the year

PoLskA · 12-31-2008, 07:13 PM

i own both....

but Kristen Bell and Mila Kunis...

gotta go with Forgetting Sarah Marshall...

JamesKurtovich · 12-31-2008, 07:18 PM

I forgot about Tropic Thunder.. yeah, I think you should go with Tropic Thunder. Only drawback is that it can feel stretched out like a long Vietnam war story.

Why do people always need help with these? Should we tell you what food to like? What clothes to wear? My suggestion is to buy the movie you like the most and don't listen to anyone else.

Nothing wrong with a good wang sighting every now and then

. It's only fair considering we girls regularly sit through all kinds of t & a on blu while watching with our hubbies and significant others.
