In my last post, I talked about what we laugh at and how our laughter exposes what we truly value.

Well, this movie review of the new Land of the Lost movie serves to highlight my point.

And I suppose Will Ferrell himself highlights my point. For although I think some of what he says and does is very funny, the majority of what I hear and see from him probably should not be considered funny. The fact that people (myself included at times) laugh at most of what he does reveals more about the people than the material itself.

Sure, many people think he is hilarious, but I can’t help but be sure that most of what he says and does will never make for good comedy on the New Earth. In the end, I feel more comfortable being offended by much comedic material than I do laughing at it.
