Man it was ok, but best comedy of the decade? I think not.

What's the one with Ben Kingsley and that Josh kid who was fat when he was younger? The title was in spray paint. I want to say Wicked. But I don't think that's it.
It was pretty good though.
ETA: Just remembered the title. The Wackness

Mean Girls is as close you'll get to a John Hughes type movie.
Almost Famous would be my choice though. I love that movie so much. But that takes place in 70s so nevermind.

They changed the title...it used to be called "She Get What She Wants." Starring Piper Perabo as a foreign exchange student in Texas.

Whoa Whoa Whoa.
Good movie and funny but not top 5 best comedy of decade.
I think #1 has to be Wedding Crashers.

My first thought for this thread was American Pie. Then I realized that was in 1999, which is crazy that it's been that long.
The more I think about it, the more I realize the 2000's were really thin in this area.
40 Year Old Virgin is the best one that kinda follows the mold, but obviously it's not technically an "adolescent" movie even though a lot of the issues are the same.
So, I guess the best answer I can think of is Mean Girls. Maybe Superbad.
