Comedy movies have basically been dead for over a decade now. Aside from random independent ones that pop up once in a blue moon, there are no big budget comedies that are actually funny and haven't been for years.
You can't really make them properly when you have to ignore 50 elephants in the room to make fun of Drumpf or something or do a phoned in romantic comedy slopfest disguised as an actual comedy. Same reason South Park's crash out 2016 election season that ignored all the many funny things happening around Hillary Clinton was a massive flop and basically killed their show.
