Old School?


Out of the ones listed so far it would be the only one to get my vote.

caveat: Not a Ferrell fan at all. Because of my dislike for him I haven't seen Anchorman. Not slamming it by any means, just letting you know I am unable to judge it.

Black Dynamite should be, but I don't think enough people will ever see it to get the proper recognition.

Wedding Crashers and Anchorman would be my other two nominees.

Some of you guys need to work on your comedy prowess.

Super Troopers will be a classic.

Black Dynamite is too unknown, so I agree with what's been said about it.

Wet Hot American Summer will be a classic.

Anchorman or Old School might be the only classics from that comedy group.

My gut reaction was Anchorman. But I agree with Super Troopers.

Black Dynamite is so pitch perfect and excellent at everything it tried to do that there is no way it can be appreciated by a wide modern audience.

I doubt they will be classics but the last two great comedies I saw were A Serious Man and In the Loop.

Anchorman and the Hangover were the ones from the last several years to come to mind.

Another that's a little older than those but I consider an absolute classic is the original American Pie

I can get on board with that. It's a coming of age comedy that should age fairly well.
