Are you looking for a good comedy tonight? How about Naked Gun, Airplane, one of a baggilion Adam Sandler movies? No, why not watch Nightmare on Elm Street! It’s a Comedy because it’s clearly in the Comedy section. No? How about Die Hard? It’s a comedy if you ignore all the murder and violence.

I am so sick of looking for movies and seeing so much crap miscategorized and sitting in the wrong places. Last night I watched “Keanu” (which is a comedy-action) and thought I would add a second similar movie, “Caught Stealing”, because it was also in the Comedy section.

It is not a comedy.

Having a single joke in a movie does not make it a comedy. “Reservoir Dogs” is not a comedy despite some mirthful scenes. So why the fuck are all these movies so badly categorized?

And there’s a special place in Hell for people who add every category imaginable to porn. You got a woman have a 8-way with 7 dudes dressed as dwarves? Clearly that belongs in the “Solo” or “Masturbation” section. /s

    I was ribbing but also teeing you up to make the punchline for the Airplane joke “I am serious and don’t call me Shirley.”
