Dave Chappelle, Bill Burr and Ricky Gervais are three of the world's most successful comedians.

Last year Taika Waititi made a film that turned Hitler into a child's loveable best friend.

Borat 2 literally just came out, to mixed reviews, but it came out.

The problem here isn't that edgy comedy movies can't be made anymore. The problem is that the world moved on from american pie style comedy about 10 years ago and joe rogan didn't.

If you get people to laugh, nobody cares how "edgy" your joke is.

The problem is that a lot of comedians and "anti-SJW" internet personalities simply aren't funny, and try to use edginess as a crutch for lackluster material.

Joe Rogan is like the Stiffler of the American Pie cast.
He just can't move on.

Imagine if they tried to get Tropic Thunder greenlit in 2021. It'd never happen.

Nothing you just named is edgy at all.

Maybe Ricky Gervais but I think he's genuinely shocked anyone in years

And he asks can you make a "good" comedy today, not an edgy one. The video title is misleading af

there's this movie called Good Boys, which is like Superbad, but with actual kids, and it's hilarious, IMO.

came out in 2019.

Bad Trip is also really wild, and it came out this year.

anyway, I feel like (from the short amount of time that I saw) he's using his ignorance to support his argument. like, because he can't think of any recent "edgy" comedies, it must mean that you can't make movies like that anymore.
