Drax and his laugh
Funny
Colorful, amazing visuals, especially if you watch it in 4k
I didn’t really care for the villain in this movie. However, I still really liked the movie. The visuals were amazing. Baby Groot is the cutest, and I just about cried when the ravagers took him. It was still funny, but it lost a little humor compared to the first one. Every time Drax laughed I couldn’t help but laugh too. I’m interested to see what happens when they meet up with the avengers in the next avengers movie. I’m a little sad that Groot will be a teenager by then though. Still a fun and entertaining watch.

Great for Parties
I love this game. I play it with my family at Christmas and on holiday (because we are strange and inappropriate). It is always hilarious and often lasting jokes are created by the conversations we have whilst playing. (n.b. I would not recommend this as a "family game" for most families!)
The only drawback is that we play it a lot and thus some combinations of cards get played again and again which makes them less funny. Therefore we have to keep buying expansion packs to save from getting tired of it. However, that does make buying presents easier as Cards Against Humanity regularly bring out new decks and we can all buy them for eachother.

Really interesting take on the idea of what happens in the future. (1 more)
Very funny
Loved it!
I really enjoyed this book. I was pretty much hooked from the first chapter and very much enjoyed the novel take on the Sci Fi "future of the Earth" story.
Very funny, sad, heartwarming all rolled into one. It was a really easy read although occasionally keeping track of the main characters is a tad difficult. The end will also creep up on you and leave you wanting more.
I highly recommend it, especially if you enjoy the idea of your average, everyday Joe (called Bob) being thrown into the future at the very deep end!

Two guys just talking
I found these guys on YouTube and then went over to castbox to listen to them since that app can be closed and still play the podcast and found the content was funny and did inspire some poetry within me. I'd say the only thing that left me with a bad taste was the amount of bad language, but it is something I was able to push through just to hear what they were saying. It was rather interesting and again funny so worth it. It' called random nothingness.
This is one of the most genuinely funny books I've read in a long time. The introduction made me chuckle and several of the stories had me laughing out loud and holding on to my stomach while tears fell from my eyes. The editor is honest in saying that you'll find some of the stories hilarious and others not so much but somewhere along the way, we can see ourselves in similar situations and circumstances and while it might not be funny at the time, in the end, it makes for a good story.
One of the things I particularly enjoyed about the book is that sprinkled amongst the stories are little jokes, quotes and witticisms about the happy accidents and miseries known as traveling.

Anne Hathaway's accent. (2 more)
Just another hustle film, not really any different from others out there.
The story isn't really that good. Doesn't have that "I Cant stop watching" kind of feeling.
Some bits were really funny but these bits didn't help you forget the story is actually quite dull, the accent Anne Hathaway does is cringeworthy. It is also a film that Rebel Wilson is pretty much the same character she is in every. Other. Film. I love her as an actress but this doesn't really let her show her talent. A good actor or actress can make you feel like the character they are playing is real but i could see rebel the entire film.

The comedy is so natural in this. (1 more)
Finally a film about the struggles of modern families.
Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg.
Contains spoilers, click to show
Only clicked spoilers as i reveal essentially the plot.
Love this film, so funny and entertaining however it makes me cringe so much at some points which put me off giving it a higher rating. When people are competing the way they are and sabotaging eachother, to an extent it is funny but I think this movie goes a bit too far for my liking.
Mark Wahlberg is just so sexy in this, if you watch something like Ted where he's quite an everyday looking guy but in this he's just oozes sexy.
Ladies, he has a topless scene. You're welcome.

Does exactly what it says on the.... Title
This is an easy 23min watch. It's funny and entertaining and it just gets better. Love all the characters for their flaws rather than in spite of them. After the first season finished, I wasn't sure where they would take it, but never disappointed to have it back on my screen. It's light-hearted, easy watching and entertaining and doesn't claim to be anything else. If you expect to much from it, I doubt you'll enjoy it. Take it for what it is, a quick fix of laughter to brighten your day. Highly recommended for filling the time between getting home from work and starting dinner. Enjoy!

Ghost Rider and Nick Fury
The plot: When erudite black playwright Andrew Sterling (Samuel L. Jackson) moves to a predominantly white suburb, the buffoonish local police surround his home, assuming he's a burglar. To avoid a scandal, unscrupulous Chief Tolliver (Dabney Coleman) conscripts low-rent criminal Amos Odell (Nicolas Cage) to break in and take Sterling hostage. But Amos and Andrew soon realize Tolliver has no plans to let either survive, so they must put their differences aside and work together to get out alive.
This movie is funny as hell, both Nicolas Cage and Samuel L Jackson are excellent. Also Brad Dourif is funny in this movie.
I dont why this film got bad reviews because it is great. A highly reccordmend movie.

Another bleak British belter
British cinema tends to be a)about working class people and b) be very miserable. I had a group of American friends staying over and shared with then a selection of British films. They all admitted to feeling suicidal at the end of it.
Some people will watch Funny Cow and expect a rip roaring comedy about a female stand up comedian. That it is not. This is the story of a working class rebel fighting domestic violence and oppression by seeing the funny side. It is brave and probably be very misunderstood by most. For me it was a poignant reminder of the fight some people have to be heard. A brave and strong film.
