Doom
Incompetence is never funny in comedies. Never. There's a scene in The Intern where the getaway car's driver has locked all doors, is listening to loud rap music and is singing with his eyes closed as the gang tries to get his attention to open the doors. It's not plausible - who locks their doors to a getaway car, blasts music and closes their eyes to sing DURING A HEIST? It's bullshit and it's not funny at all. It frustrates the viewer, but does not make them laugh. Misunderstandings are funny, confusion is funny, accidents are funny, but not someone seemingly intentionally sabotaging something with implausible incompetence.
