What is the last great comedy movie to come out?

Wolf of Wall Street or Grand Budapest

I don't know about capital G great comedies, but some good ones came out this year.

Eurovision was funny
The Trip to Greece, 4th movie in the British Trip to series, was the least funny installment, but still very enjoyable.
Emma w/ Queen's Gambit's Anya Taylor-Joy was funny Jane Austen adaptation
Save Yourself, on Hulu, had a pretty hilarious set-up and execution for an alien invasion movie
Palm Springs was a pretty great spin on the Groundhog Day premise.

I'd call Knives Out and The Death of Stalin the best comedies released in the past 5 years, but I've seen fewer comedies relative to the amount of movies of I watch.

Comedy movies are getting squeezed out of the market with the oversized balloon of comic book and tent pole IP taking up 95 percent of the money out there

Comedy is a usually low yield higher risk movie so the block buster comedies started fading out after 2016 and are pretty much extinct.

Nowadays the funniest movies are often partially dramas or are blended with some other genre film troup to make it super high concept, or attach it to some sort of IP. Things like JoJo Rabbit, dead pool, Game Night in some ways, etc are the closest we get to a big budget well made straight up comedy the last few years

2014 was a pretty loaded year
What we do in the shadows
Grand Budapest
22 jump street

And some decent lower tier filler behind it

Starting in 2015 it falls off a cliff, has a small rebound for 2016 and then is basically dead from then on outside of 1-2 half decent comedies a year

Game Night

You wouldn't consider this a straight up comedy?

The Wrong Missy came out last year on NF and it was straight up hilarious.

I’ll throw Popstar in the ring. First that comes to mind for me. Came out in 2016

This and that there are so many jokes you can’t make in 2020 that are hilarious . So many things will get you canceled and people can’t just take this it’s only a movie

Good Boys was pretty but does not meet the great threshold
