The Nerd Crew: The Last Jedi FULL REVIEW (SPOILERS!!!)
these guys are more or less part of the anti-comedy style. like tim and eric.
Wow, these guys are terrible.....they're terrible as segways and editing. and their comedy needs a laugh-track because I didn't know where I was supposed to laugh. And they could benefit from MUCH better writing....

For me, the comedy lies in the parody of post-modernist fucktards who are too lazy/stupid to come up with their own train of thought, and discards all your arguments with a condescending "That's just your opinion.", with the subtext "and your opinion is wrong while mine is right, and I don't have to explain why."
Not that The Dude thinks that far, of course. He is just intellectually lazy. But he is a man for his time and place.

I actually never understood the appeal of this scene. Maybe I'm stupid and missing something obvious, but what makes this funny? Is it an anti-comedy type thing? As if he's setting up for some great comeback but has nothing?
Yeah, well, it's also the overuse of filler words, such as "like", "uhh", "yeah", "well", "man", "dude" and "fuck", that makes this (and other similar quotes) funny. Having grown up in Southern California, this line like pretty much sums up, you know, like the faults in, uhh, my own accent, man.
Also, as you pointed out Ornthoron, the borrowing of cliche lines from external sources is an important part of the humor, which becomes even more apparent when the Dude hears Bush Sr. on television say, "This will not stand", then later uses the same line in a conversation with the Big Lebowski.
Great flick. Absurd but also very subtle humor.

Its ridiculous. And its perfect for the character... with the time-stalling ("like, uhh") and the pointedness ("man") at the end... its said like its the meanest thing he could think of to say, and its just this harmless, dismissive pseudo-rebuttal.

Anti-comedy at its finest - Norm MacDonald
>> ^imstellar28:
Three men walk into a bar. Two go and find a seat while the other heads to the bar to buy the first round. As he approaches the barman, the barman can't help but notice how well-to-do this man looks. He is covered head to toe in the finest garments and jewelry, he is even wearing a crown, a monocle, and carrying a scepter. In short, all the trappings of a cartoon billionaire. As the bar man is pulling the pints he remarks to the gentlemen: "I hope you don't think I'm prying, but, I couldn't help but notice you seem pretty well off. How, may I ask did you come into such a fortune?"
the man replies:" Well, me and my friends over there found a genie in a beer bottle outside, and he granted us each a wish"
barman:"So, I take it you wished to be the richest man in the world"
The man puts one finger on his nose, and points at the barman with the other hand, as you would in a game of charades
barman:" Not a bad choice at all if i do say so"
The man nods politely, pays for the round and goes over to his friends
After a while, the second man goes up to the bar. This man is notable only insofar as he can barely be seen for all the beautiful woman draped around him, seemingly caressing every available inch of his body. He orders another round which the barman dutifully pulls. As he finishes off the last pint he can't help but comment: "I hope you don't mind me asking but, you are a friend of that wealthy gentlemen over there aren't you?"
"I am indeed" murmurs the man from beneath the pile of beauties.
"And you wished to be the most attractive man in the world"
"Pretty much, yeah"
"Excellent choice sir, enjoy your round" says the barman with the kind of knowing smile you tend to see on people vicariously appreciating the implied sexual exploits of a stranger. So he shuffles back to the table and him and his friends have their drinks. Not long later the third man approaches the bar and asks for another round. The barman cannot help but notice this man has an orange for a head. But he carries on pulling the pints in silence, until he cannot contain himself any longer and asks
"You found the genie too right?"
"That's correct" replies the man with an orange for a head.
"And what did you wish for, if you don't mind me asking?"
"I wished to have an orange for a head"
That's so funny I forgot to laugh!

you idiots, this is not anti-comedy or whatever you're trying to label it, it is the result of too much drugs and alcohol.
Mcdonald was famous for his style of comedy before, why do you think he would dump that so he can no longer have any more movies or tv shows?
he gambled all his money away and now he is trying to hang on to the few braincells he still has left.
he used to be my favorite but now even his closest friends feel sorry for him, just watch the video.

Turns out I can't stand anti-comedy. Of the few jokes I could get through, I did recognize some from old-timey roasts. But I just don't see how this could be anything but painful to watch, and ya know what... I don't like pain!

eh he's not doing anything original or funny. roasts are an easy target. it's a lot harder to actually write good material than to just mock something stupid.
i think norm mcdonald sucks.
I guess you fall into the "too dumb" category.
