Humour is subjective. You either like the American slapstick stuff, dry British humour or whatever. As I've gotten older, I now prefer more intelligent, situational humour. I remember thinking the Wayans brothers show was hilarious at a young age but you outgrow certain things. Everybody hates Chris or Fresh Prince on the otherhand, are timeless because they are situational. Louie, Curb your Enthusiasm, British office, Extras or movies like Coming to America or Friday.
Adam ? probably owns this thread because he's been doing the same movie it seems for like 10 years.
There's a difference between washed up and overrated. Eddie Murphy is passed his prime as a comedian but he's paid his dues and has some classic comedies.
Will Ferrell face is just funny to me, even his cameos can be scene stealers. Anchorman is just too funny to call him overrated.
Jim Carrey, again a comedic legend. Ace Ventura and Dumb and Dumber are in my top 5 comedies ever. Again, he oversaturated himself. But he still funny at events. He's naturally funny. -
Mike Myers
Jamie Foxx
Terrence Howard -

Ironically I was just watching "Click". But that new movie with his twin sister is the worst idea I've ever seen, I could tell it was terrible just from the trailer -

Yeah I didn't even waste my time watching that preview more than twice before I decided against it...but Adam ? has some enjoyable films in his resume...not everything is terrible...? I'll still watch Big Daddy every now and then if I catch it on tv... -
I can't believe ? in here actually think Will Ferrell is overrated..
Stepbrothers, Old School and The Other Guys ...? hilarious.
The most overrated IMO, is probably Jack Black or Chris Farley.. -
Russell Brand is not funny. Jack Black is not funny but the one movie when he thought his chick was fine but she really was fat.
-
Co-sign Russel Brand not being funny. I'm a big fan of British humor, but dude seems like he's trying too hard
-
Kevin Hart! The only movies i enjoyed by him was Paper Soldiers and Soul Plane. Maybe a few stand up specials.
SMH at ? sayin Will Ferrell is not funny. Step Brothers is a classic.
Russell Brand is the WOAT -

Sooooo basically his entire career... -

He had other movies and stuff, but I don't think he's as funny as people make him out to be. He's kinda generic imo. -
if you say Will Ferrell you're lost. he's easily one of the most consistent comedians of all time; Anchorman, Old School, Talladega Nights, Step Brothers, Semi-Pro, The Other Guys.. all hysterical. even his duds like Kicking and Screaming, Elf, Land of the Lost, Blades of Glory, Night at the Roxbury ect. are funny enough to be worth a watch.plus classic cameos in stuff like Wedding Crashers and Zoolander and his work on SNL pfff... impossible for that dude to be overrated.
