I'll second anything with Adam Sandler... He's just not funny!

I third the nomination of anything with Adam Sandler. The first movie that jumped to mind after reading the title of this thread was Little Nicky.

As for the bad rap about the characters--hey, I've seen space operas that put their emphasis on human personalities and relationships. They're called "Star Trek" movies. Give me transparent underwater cities and vast hollow senatorial spheres any day. --Roger Ebert on The Phantom Menace

I hate to be the 4th to say Adam Sandler because I always loved Opera Man but his movies really stink.
My unfunny top 5:
1. The Waterboy
2. Men at Work (This was supposed to be a comedy, right?)
3. Happy Gilmore
4. Billy Madison
5. Me, Myself & Irene

Can't stand the sight or sound of Adam Sandler or Martin Lawrence. Two of the unfuniest individual comedies I've seen are LADIES MAN (with Jerry Lewis) and VOLUNTEERS.

You know, the first movie that comes to mind is Swingers! I absolutely hated that movie. I watched with a friend who owns the DVD, and he was laughing quite a bit. I do not even remember one part that made me even smirk!

Well...speak of the devil. "Being John Malkovich" has to qualify for this honour. It made you want to open a vein and stop the misery.......but I just used the stop button instead.
Actually, the stop button thing is a lie. I watched the whole thing and I'm still trying to figure out the fuck why. I kept thinking there's gotta be something funny in the next 24 frames and then......and then.......IT ENDED!!
You could have knocked me on my fucking ass with a feather...a comedy only capable of inducing comas. That's gotta be a first!

I've got you all trumped. Gone Fishin' was the most unfunny thing ever. It gives me abdominal pain just thinking about it. I mean, what ever convinced them that it was a good idea?
I would say it was like the baseball bat beating from Casino, but without the laughs.

I am fruly shocked at the mention of Being John Malkovich and Swingers - two truly classic comedies!

Adam Sandler or Martin Lawrence
I'm with ya on that one, Dick.
Also:
1. Liar, Liar (I sat straight-faced through the whole movie).
2. Jim Carey (though not a movie, just not funny)
3. Joe Dirt (or as trailered: The Adventures of Joe Dirt)
4. Freddy Got Fingered (I now just find Tom Green... annoying. Like it's just a silly act to get undeserved attention, I mean it is, but now it's just too obvious.)
5. I don't watch many comedies because 9.5 out of 10 of them are NOT funny.

The giant foreheads didn't make you chuckle? :)
But then again Austin Powers 2 just wasn't funny at all to me. I've never seen the first one, and after the second I have no burning desire to.
