10 Slapstick Comedies That Don't Hold Up Today According to CBR

"In comedies, there are many ways that filmmakers and actors can tell a joke. One of the most famous methods is slapstick, or physical comedy, which is paradoxically easy and difficult to do. It's easy to exact violence on others, but making this funny or even relatable is challenging. Unfortunately, these slapstick movies failed at both. In a best-case scenario, these slapstick movies were funny in their respective time periods. What made them funny years ago may not work today without their original time settings and context. But at worst, these slapstick movies weren't funny to begin with, and they only worsened as time passed." - cbr.com
