I love comedy! I've already said that but it's just a wondrous genre of movies and shows that there are to watch. A big example can be Mr Bean On an Adventure, An American Pickle, and Peewee.

What do I not Like about Comedy genres?

        Some Comedians by themselves are just trying way too hard to make jokes that end up unfunny or just completely random. Comedy can't simply be comedies, then need to have other genres uphold it keeping it glory. Without another genre to keep it up, it turns into a compilation of excessive zoom shots, over-told jokes, etc. One example of comedies not being funny being spoof movies because they became over saturated which caused one movie to break the rules of comedy which are as followed

1. Joke On a Joke: When two or more jokes are at the same time they cancel each other
2. Acknowledgement: when a joke happens in the background the actors in the foreground can't comment on it 
3. Unrelated Background: A joke in the background must relate to the action in the foreground
4. Breaking the Frame: The movie can legally can but movie normally can't remind the audience is watching a movie.
5. Trivia: A joke only a few hold get
6. Jerry Lewis: Don't have a comedian as the straight man role as it would go to rule 1
7. Axe Grinding: don't over foreshadow a joke as it gets boring fast
8. Self Conscious: A movie can't make jokes on itself movie business or comedy as it pulls the audience out of the movie.
9. Straw Dummy: If the target is set up by the writer instead of real life if the target gets hit the joke doesn't lead.
10.  Can You Live With It?: once a joke happens it can't last after initial laughs as it gets to a point were it gets old.
11. That Didn't Happen: If a joke that defies logic but is on and off scene fast enough the audience won't question what happened in that moment.
12. Late hit: know when a target had enough.
13. Technical Pizzazz: Special effects don't always mean funny.
14.  Hanging on: don't hold on a punchline when the joke is said and done move not.
15. There are no rules: is means there is a way to break this rules and it still works for example in the Princess Bride there is a scene where Robin Hood is in an archer contest and loses so he pull out the script to check and calls out on it.
