They had a run in the 90s-early 00s that places them as possibly the best comedic director duo/singularity ever. Tonight the highly underrated Me, Myself and Irene was on and now There's Something About Mary is on. Thus this thread is made.

So for me it is:

1. Dumb and Dumber (1994)
2. There's Something About Mary (1998)
3. Me, Myself & Irene (2000)
4. Kingpin (1996)


The rest isn't worth ranking. But those are some of the best comedies of all time, especially the top 3. Sad that it has become a completely dead movie genre.
 
Almost have to put There's Somwthing About Mary at #1. It has so many well setup running jokes in the movie that really payoff later with the plot.

Hate this movie.

I'd replace it with Shallow Hal


Shallow Hal was a major let down and a clear sign that their era was over.

I think Me, Myself & Irene is the most underrated comedy ever made. Never gets mentioned among the great comedy films but it is. The last great comedy of both the Farrelly Brothers and Jim Carrey. By far the raunchiest film that Jim Carrey has ever done and he was fantastic in it.
 
I don't know if this was based on the Paramount+ movie Dear Santa, but I enjoyed it more than I thought I would, it was entertaining enough for a platform I watch nothing on, but my mom needs it for her bullshit.
