Superbad, Borat, and the Last Great Comedy Era

In this episode of Hoot’n and Holler’n, the guys dive headfirst into one of the greatest cinematic debates of our lifetime: what actually counts as the greatest comedy movie ever made?

 

From Anchorman and Superbad to Borat, Step Brothers, and a few deep cuts you may not have thought about in years, we look back at the era when comedy movies dominated theaters and every line instantly became quotable.

 

Along the way we talk about the movies that shaped our sense of humor, the comedies we definitely weren’t supposed to be watching growing up, and why it feels like Hollywood just doesn’t make comedies like this anymore.

 

Plus:

• The first comedy movie we ever got in trouble for watching

• The movies our dads quoted nonstop

• The comedy everyone else loves that we absolutely cannot stand

 

If you’ve ever quoted Napolean Dynamite, argued about Will Ferrell’s best movie, or wondered where all the great comedy movies went… this one’s for you.
