And it will never be topped in our lifetimes. Here's a sample of the R-rated comedies that were released in theaters that year:
Step Brothers
Tropic Thunder
Role Models
Pineapple Express
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
Burn After Reading
Hell, even movies like Zack and Miri Make a Porno and Semi-Pro are pretty enjoyable too. And while I don't think any of these aforementioned movies are the best R rated comedy of all time (Step Brothers could be in the conversation), I think the overall lineup of comedy hits from this year beats any other. Furthermore, the way comedies are released these days, I highly doubt we will ever have a comedy year, regardless of age rating, that will come close to the quantity and quality of the 2008 comedies.
