Say what you want about me, but this guy can't make me laugh

Only movie I found him hilarious is 'Evan Almighty'. I watched few other movies with him but I haven't laughed on his jokes. I try hard to laugh but I can't. Some scenes make me laugh but only if I try to convince myself that it is actually funny. Although, I love him because he has that type of funnily-annoying voice and makes stupid and ridiculous theories, makes funny gestures.. but unfortunately that's the best he can get from me. Somehow he simply doesn't make me laugh so much.

Movies I watched with him:

Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues
Despicable Me 2
The Incredible Burt Wonderstone
Crazy, Stupid, Love.
Dinner for Schmucks
Get Smart
Evan Almighty
Bruce Almighty (here he had a minor role, but was funny)

Not everybody is going to find the same things or people funny. I think Steve is funniest as Michael Scott. His The Daily Show bits are great too. Actually when he was on The Daily Show, I remember not liking him that much. It was only when he did the first Anchorman did I start to like him. Then he had his banner year with 40 Year Old Virgin, Little Miss Sunshine, and the first season of The Office.

How do you like his more dramatic work as in Dan in Real Life or The Way, Way Back?
