Which movie is funnier?

[Karlifornia]

Dumb And Dumber vs. Office Space

Which one is better when it comes to sheer quotability and the bane of countless in-jokes with friends?

[Maple Leafs]

Dumb and Dumber is funnier when you watch it. Office Space has more of those memorable lines that becomes in-jokes (if something from a major motion picture can really be an in-joke).

I find the Austin Powers movies to be like that as well. Not laugh out loud funny when you watch them, but two years later you look back on them as classics.

[Chubby]

this isn't even close.

MMM yeah, I'm going to need that TPS report.

Agreed...

[TazFTW]

Office Space

[DeToxRox]

This is a weird comparison to me.

Dumb & Dumber is a slapstick kind of movie, where Office Space is, maybe not dark, but it's definetly not slapstick.

And in any case, Caddyshack beats them both. :)

[Lathum]

Having worked at Fridays for years and actually wearing "Flair" this one is a no brainer.

[wade moore]

This is hands-down, not even a contest...

Office Space by a Landslide.. to vote dumb and dumber you must have never worked in a restaurant or office...

[sachmo71]

I think Office Space has a broader appeal become more people can identify with many of the characters.

[Crapshoot]

Dumb and Dumber is just that - Office Space is a life story for many. No contest here.

[Cuckoo]

Well, this must have been a hype issue for me. I didn't see Office Space until I heard all of the hype. When I did, I didn't find it near as funny as everyone said it was going to be. And yes, I've worked in both a restaurant and an office.

You're probably a manager, huh?

:) - No, when I worked in an office, I was not a manager.

Cuckoo obviously didn't get a copy of that memo.

In that case, yeahhhhhhh, I'm going to need you to come in on sunday too.

[KWhit]

I don't love either one. I think Office Space is over-rated (though I do think it's a funny movie).

But Office Space gets my vote.

[Fritz]

I dont think dumb and dumber is all that funny

Wow. The perfect responce.

[chinaski]

office space took dumb and dumbers stapler and it aint giving it back!

Office Space fixed Dumb and Dumber's glitch.

I just finished a "field of 64" of comedies:

'Undertoad' sounds like a Weird Al parody of a Tool song.

Easily.
Wow. This really helps clarify your whole Star Wars take. It's crystal now. ;)

Shame on you, just.....shame. Go to your room right now.

WTF, 71 to 19? Who are you people?

You mean it indicates that I am far more intelligent than you will ever hope to be? :p

Maybe Cuckoo is just having a case of the Moooondays.

Homer J knows.

Kudos sir.

Sums up my thoughts pretty well, I enjoyed them both quite a bit but they were very different, hard to compare the two.

Lets love them both equally! ;)

The World According to Garp.


Just watched it again this weekend. Good flick. I've heard the book is better, but I haven't gotten around to reading it.

Where in THE fuck is Fletch?

Forest Gump?! As Good As It Gets?! Some of these aren't even true comedies.

Someone stop me before QS shows up and chastises me.

Yeah, but this is a scientifically unreliable poll. After all, Tootsie beat Holy Grail? Takes a lot of brain damage to reach that conclusion.

SI

[rkmsuf]

Both are brilliant.

[sabotai]

Dumb and Dumber? That movie wasn't even funny, let alone quotable.

[Ksyrup]

I haven't seen either movie in a few years, but the only specific quote I can remember from Dumb & Dumber is the "...so you're saying I've still got a chance!" line, which was pretty funny.

[Honolulu_Blue]

This word: "intelligent." I do not think it means what you think it means...

[ISiddiqui]

Oh it does... it surely does :p.

Now there's a poll. The Princess Bride vs. Office Space for most quotable movie.

[Critch]

First half of Office Space wins.

Unfortunately the first half of Office Space if followed by the second half. The half where they decide they need a story and a love interest to make it a proper movie. That half sucks.

[Warhammer]

Funniest first half of any movie is Spaceballs!

[judicial clerk]

Oh it does... it surely does

it doesn't,...and quit calling him shirley.

[Undertoad]

Yeah, but this is a scientifically unreliable poll. After all, Tootsie beat Holy Grail? Takes a lot of brain damage to reach that conclusion.
It's a field of 64, anything can happen!

The next field of 64 is world landmarks (http://cellar.org/showthread.php?p=151281). It's just a fun way to waste some time...

Princess Bride. No freakin contest.

Movie comedy achieved perfection with Monty Python and the Holy Grail. All other comedies pale in comparison.
