It took my awhile to figure it out but this entire list of movies with the exception of Animal House is just lame humor that just isn’t funny, they aren’t my cup of tea.   I cringe when Monty python is on (I m not a fan of English comedy) but to each their own. 

Give me Ferris and the goonies over any of these. 

So Scruffy likes his humor to be of a more juvenile nature. Can anyone here say that they’re surprised by that?

I think a lot of comedy movies after 1990 lost that ability to be funny from wall-to-wall like some older comedies from the 70s and 80s were.  They seemed to evolve into being more of a story line and setting up pins to be knocked down.  Often times a romantic sub-plot that takes the wind out.


Also 
Funny Farm

I don't know, there are some damn funny movies even in to the 2000's.

Super Troopers
Anchorman
Superbad
Shaun of the Dead
Bridesmaids
Horrible Bosses
Stepbrothers
21 Jump Street
School of Rock
Best in Show

American Pie needs to be added.
