I dunno about Dodgeball - it was amusing enough but total crapola compared to, say, Baseketball, in the "dumb silly-sport movies." (Though the Mr. tries to convince me that Baseketball is the most profound commentary on the destruction of sports at the hands of professionals ever made.)
And, while it is no Office Space, Something About Mary was pretty damn funny. It's not fair to compare anything to Office Space - it is one of those defining Ur movies for our generation, like South Park, and nothing is really comparable.
Still, I, too, reject the Stiller Theorem. I quite liked Zoolander - I'm shocked they didn't get sued by Karl Lagerfeld and Anna Wintour. (Not to mention John Galliano and Dior, 'cause they totally knocked off his 2000 collection.)
