It all depends on what you think you'll be able to work on for a month, really. In my opinion, fun and epic both have big flaws. Fun can be tacky if the wrong jokes or humorous moments are abused, and epic isn't generally appreciated as well by audiences (too much effort involved in watching it, and often 'too long'). I'd take an epic over a fun movie almost any day, but it depends on the mood I'm in.
There's also the fact that I can't stand most 'fun' movies because they ARE so horribly tacky and mindless. Perhaps the best thing would be to shoot for somewhere down the middle, and maybe have your main character deal with some heavy themes/events but look at the world with a sense of humor. A little like Boondock Saints, maybe?
