Collider has published a ranked list of the ten best comedy films of the 1990s, compiled by writer Michael Block, celebrating a decade the piece credits with producing some of the most enduring and quotable comedies in film history.

– No. 9: There's Something About Mary (1998), directed by the Farrelly Brothers, starring Cameron Diaz, Ben Stiller and Matt Dillon, cited as a landmark raunchy rom-com combining slapstick and gross-out humour
