      I would like to tell about The Bucket List (not only comedy, but it`s still part of it) or South Park - Bigger Longer & Uncut (only comedy)
      Also, Bo Burnham`s Inside. Can`t tell why, but its still funniest special I ever watch)

      Solid picks! I actually haven’t seen The Bucket List so it goes straight in the to-do!

      Can't name one, here are six, and then I still leave out several favourites:
      - The Big Lebowski
      - Life of Brian
      - The Death of Stalin
      - Sherlock, Jr.
      - Airplane
      - Borat

      Perfect example of a joke that you can still find funny even if you have no idea who she was.

    Excellent over-thought analysis. Bringing in a subtle gag at the end wraps it up.

    Nice video! I think you lay out very well how different comedy works and can be combined. Funny video as well, not including all the scenes from the movie. I think this might be one of the funniest movies I have ever seen but, sadly, I have seen it only one time so far. There are comedies which I like more overall as movies, such as Sherlock, Jr. and Life of Brian, but this one is funnier. Good work on the video, and I sincerely want to think that the analysis and research did not lower the movie's comedic effect for you.

    • @TonisFilmClub
      @TonisFilmClub  2 месяца назад +2

      Thank you! It holds up really well for rewatches as you notice new things so I’d definitively recommend revisiting it!
      Life of Brian and Sherlock Jr. are both 10/10, great choices! And regarding your last point - I’m strangely fascinated by dissecting comedy so if anything, it gave me a more appreciation for it. I still laugh a lot at the same moments each time.

    Funny you talked about the layers and having two things. Well, your video actually has three things going on. The third thing is the music playing while you are talking. It is actually distracting to what you are telling us. Yes, I love the movie and have seen it multiple times (though not to do the analysis you have done here). The point I am making is that the music is completely unnecessary to your points. As I have asked other hosts that play music while they are talking to us, I ask that you not do it all as well. Thanks.
