I think peoples taste among the top comedy's has sooo much to do with the theme relative to their own experiences.
If you had a bunch of crazy roommates in college maybe Old School really speaks to you and you recall all of your own antics? Maybe you just broke-up with your serious girlfriend 4months before watching Forgetting Sarah Marshall and it really speaks to you (as happened with myself), or maybe you have been to Vegas a bunch of times with all of your best guy friends and have those hard to remember surreal moments of your own to add to the comedy of the actual movie (again, as I know I can relate to).
I imagine if you hate Vegas, it is not your scene, etc, then The Hangover is not going to be as funny to you.
If you have never really invested yourself in a relationship only to see that girl run off with someone else you might not relate to a lot of the 'truth' behind Forgetting Sarah Marshall, etc.
But I don't know how anyone who has partied hard in Vegas could not love this movie!

I absolutely agree. I'm not sure what that says about me seeing as "the 40 year old virgin" is my favorite comedy, but you're absolutely right.
