Boomer humor is absolute garbage. Iโ€™ve lost count of how many of these so-called โ€œclassicsโ€ Iโ€™ve tried to sit through with an open mind, and every single one is trash. Not a single laugh, just stale jokes and cringe. How do people defend this stuff?

All these were made specifically for English speaking Americans. There was no interest in the international market so there was no need to tailor the dialogue for ESL thirdies like you.

Boomer humor essentially boils down to:
>he's fat! that's hilarious!
>his wife cheats on him with the milkman! absolutely hysterical!
>his boss is an asshole! my belly hurts!
>he just slammed face first into that lamp post! I'm wheezing ova hea!
It's the most lowbrow, schadenfreude brand of "comedy" you will find. No wonder they like seeing the younger generations hurting.

Zoomers mock millennials for our hatred of boomers, but you wouldn't understand. You think their humor is bad? This is how they live.

it's because you expect it to be fresh, which is silly. you have to accept it for being quaint to laugh

Yes, your kosher boomer comedy has nothing to do with being specially made for Americans.

True and it isn't because it's quaint like >>213918662 says because silent gen and greatest gen humor is S-tier. Buster Keaton or The Marx Brothers are much funnier than any of this boomer garbage.

I rewatched this recently and it was surprisingly still funny and quotable. That car chase through the mall is like a time capsule.

Modern comedies avoid this by having NO jokes.

It was alright. Fletch and Oc and Stiggs were better. Breakfast Club was just gay

It's the SNL comedies that are fucking atrocious.
Even the 80s ones.
Stuff like Airplane and Top Secret is piss funny but i cannot stand that SNL crap....
