Am I the only one?

I liked (laughed at) every movie you mention but I admit Holy Grail is a completely different type of humor than Hangover or Dodgeball. I would say Holy Grail is more akin to the Marx Brothers (word play for humor) and Hangover/Dodgeball is more akin to the 3 Stooges (more slapstickish). I personally like both.
P.S. Like the word I made up (slapstickish). -

I think people take it too much on the U.K. vs U.S.A. "rivalry", generalizing "Americans are 'this'" and "British are like 'that'". I found the holy grail really funny, I couldn't stop laughing during some points, I like comedy in general but that's the type I like most. Kind of makes me remember of Mel Brooks' movies(some people will probably want to kill me haha).
I'm not from either country and English isn't my native language, but I enjoyed it.

I personally loved it, and I love Monty Python's humor in general. But I did like The Hangover (didn't like Dodgeball, though). The thing I don't understand about this feud between British people and USAmerican people is this: why do British people (I don't mean everybody, but if you are one of those people, you know) think they are the only ones who can make a satyric movie? Woody Allen is my favorite comedian, and many of his best movies have a very inteligent satyric humor. And if you guys think American Humor is stupid, you should come to Brazil most comedians over here are idiots, and if you stand in front of TV here, your IQ points begin to drop.
