Some good current comedies?
I want to laugh some. So what are some good current (last 10 years or so, the newer the better) comedies? I also enjoy "adult cartoons" like Cars.

A couple that come to mind right away are Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle, and Waiting. Also, pretty much anything by Wes Anderson if you like his style.

The Producers
Clerks II
Team America: World Police

I think over the past several years there's been better comedy on television though, with Arrested Development, Chappelle's Show, and South Park being highlights. They seem to take more risks.

I'll second all of those. I think The Producers is a little too over the top at times, though.
