I don't see how Andy Dick is overrated. I thought everyone hated him. Although maybe you're saying just hating him isn't enough, which is understandable.

Andy Dick isn't overrated. No one thinks he is funny.

Most of the overrated are people who are hated.

No he's not. He's perfectly rated. He's the hot act right now.

I think DePaulo was a great example of underrated but you make it hard to take you seriously when you put David Letterman as overrated. That's insane and I'm not even some Lettermanophite.

I agree with all of you're underrated except for Andy Dick. I mean I have only seen him in a few things but he has cracked me up a few times. His character in Old School cracked me up. And this MTV show he had a while back was pretty good. Basically a dumbed down/ funny The Apprentice.


Jack Black is freaking underrated. He kills me in everything he is in. I don't understand the hate for him around here. One of my favorite comedic actors.

Jack Black was funny in Anchorman. That's about it for him.

No love for Envy, Shallow Hal, Nach Libre, Bernie, School of Rock, Year One, Tropic Thunder, Saving Silverman, Be Kind Rewind, Orange freaking County, High Fidelity?

Orange County and Nacho Libre being two of my favorite comedies in the last ten years or so. Though I could understand how someone couldn't like Nacho Libre and Year One for that matter. They're not for everybody.

Hes like Adam Sandler post 90s for me. He found his one character and manorisms and has been banking on that ever since

Some of the movies you listed I found funny, but they were more funny in spite of him instead of because of him
