: : No, BASEketball and Airplane! are both Nonsense Humour. So are The Naked
: Gun, Kids In The Hall: Brain Candy, Monty Python (any), Young Frankenstein,
: etc. Your examples are not nonsense humour, they're random humor. At
: first glance, these two appear to be the same, but with one major
: difference: Nonsense humor can be watched more than once without boring
: you to the point of whacking your skull in with a mallet.
: No, BASEketball and Airplane! are "screw-ball comedies", not nonsense
: humor. I agree w/ the Brain Candy and Holy Grail statements, though. And, I
: have formerly stated that watching DWMC more than once would be a mistake.
: But, I didn't say it was the greatest comedy of all time. I said it was
: funny...

: : No, this is either a completely random moment, or they learned magic that

: deliberately for a good 3 seconds after it happened. I suppose it's just
: something you have to see...

: : Explain the reasoning of the Spam sketch from Monty Python. Two people
: fly in o a store, everything on the menu includes spam, vikings are sitting
: at the table, and they eventually start to sing. The differences between
: that and Dude, Where's My Car? are that Monty Python is funny, Monty Python
: has good writing, and Monty Python doesn't star that guy from That 70s
: Show.
: Dude, I love Monty Python, and I'm not disagreeing w/ you. The Viking thing
: is great. And, although you may criticize me to an even fuller extent, I
: happen to like That 70's Show. Oh! I just thought of a Kevin Smith nonsense
: humor statement: On the Mallrats commentary, Kevin states that at the end
: they were going to have Gwen tap-dancing for no reason. Now THAT would have
: been funny!...
