Bend over for the soap!

Recently I posed a question to my friends: Fight Club or Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls. There were mixed responses, but the winner was Ace. Naturally, I chose the latter. Sure, Fight Club presents a dark comedy about the corrupting greed and material consumerism that runs rampant these days while at the same time posing as a satire of society with commendable acting and a beautifully written story line, but Ace Ventura is super-mega ultra double deluxe hilarious! How is a mechanical rhinoceros giving birth to a naked Jim Carrey while a family is watching not funny? Both are movies to be remembered, but when it comes to slapstick and Edward Norton, slapstick wins. (Fight Club: Now on Blu-Ray!)
