At the moment we’re into Trailer Park Boys, Danny McBride stuff, Flight of the Conchords, Limmy..

What films can you recommend in the off-beat comedy genre?

try Swearnet or Eastbound & Down, maybe a bit of Workaholics or Always sunny in philadelphia might amuse you too 🙂

McGruber?

Have you seen This Is The End?

King of Kong

Defendor, comedy with a sad ending.

Just Before I Go with Sean William Scott.

keep ’em coming.. 🙂

some good suggestions, some we haven’t seen before

gonna go with Gentleman Broncos tonight though

Caught “Shaun and the Dead” on TV last week (Halloween zombie special), I’d not seen it before and it was great.

Napoleon Dynamite

Zombieland

Submarine

Reno 911!: Miami

flipping love this film 😀

Cheech and Chong up in smoke

and lock stock and two smoking barrels, nearly wet my self

What we do in the shadows – Genuinely laugh out loud funny film.

Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid – a genuinely funny Steve Martin film with a ‘cast’ of Hollywood greats. Sadly doesn’t get shown on TV very often at all.

Another Simon Pegg / Nick Frost double act film that’s well worth a watch is “Paul”. Sci-fi comedy.

Another Simon pegg Kill Me Three Times
http://imdb.com/rg/an_share/title/title/tt2393845/
Amusing not laugh out loud, killed 90mins over the Pacific

Angels Share.
Whisky, kilts, laughs.

Another vote for Tucker & Dale vs Evil. Starts out like so many other college kids vs hillbillies slasher rubbish, then takes a whole new direction and gets proper funny.

Looking for Eric.
Twin Town.
That Sinking Feeling.

That Sinking Feeling is excellent as is another Scottish film – Restless Natives.

and Sightseers

Tucker and Dale vs Evil and What We Do In The Shadows seconded.

Also: Frank.

I like amusing films, what genre though?

Limniy Snickets tales of unfortunate adventures
The Darjeeling Limited
A Life Aquatic
The Mummy etc.
The Librarians etc.

The clue is very much in my original post bikebouy 🙂

Little Miss Sunshine ??

Appreciate these are not as per your recent films but offbeat in the sense they are foreign language, first one easily available on streaming services and really outstanding – comedy and a tear jerker based on a true story

Les Intouchables
Bienvenue chez le chi’tis

As per post above we enjoyed Frank, a bit weird

Edit: following up from DrJ Little Miss Sunshine (excellent) I really like Toni Colette and would add The Way Way Back, I assume you must have seen Muriel’s Wedding

If you liked the Intouchables watch A Brilliant Young Mind

watched Super Troopers today. awesome!

Super made me laugh.

Kung Fury

A sample…

Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid is a masterwork! See also Young Frankenstein.

However, on the offbeat angle, what about this?
