I can't believe that anyone would think this was funny. This movie adds new meaning to the word smarmy. At least the so-called witty commentators ended up nobodies while the people they lambasted are still remembered. The part that was supposed to be a homage to the silent stars was made ridiculous by who was left out: Paulette Goddard, Harry Langdon, Charlie Chase, Theda Bara and Buster Keaton! Take my advice and search out the silent classics to watch and not this.
