Who is the better comedian?

clevohardcore - 4-8-2006 at 02:59 AM

and why?

clevohardcore - 4-8-2006 at 03:01 AM

I have been renting comedy dvds lately and laughing my ass off. Chris Rocks bigger and blacker and the last one he came out with called never......I forgot but it is really good. Also Eddie Griffith is one funny ass dude.

thedog - 4-8-2006 at 03:26 AM

Chris Rocks first 2 specials i thought were awesome.
The last one "Never Scared" i didnt think was that good.

Other good comedians to check out....
Jim Norton
Bill Burr
Robert Schimmel ( he is actually on comedy central right now)
Bill Hicks
Kinison
Louie CK
Patrice Oneil
Ron White

but so did I when I was reading the choices. I voted 'other' with Artie Lange in mind. His stand up DVD is hysterical plus he is consistantly funny on a daily basis on the Howard Stern show. His stories are amazing!! He was funny in Dirty Work and when he was on Mad TV too.

I'm going with Mitch Hedberg. I love is style of humor. I love how sometimes you have to stop and think about it for a second at times. I love that type of humor. You have to think.

clevohardcore - 4-8-2006 at 11:19 AM

I got to check out some of those guys. I heard alot about that Hedberg guy.

DaveMoral - 4-8-2006 at 11:47 AM

As much as I love Chappelle, and has hilarious as he really is... I had to go with "other" with Dane Cook in mind... that dude cracks me the fuck up.

sippers - 4-8-2006 at 12:02 PM

im digging carlos mencia dude is real...

XHonusWagnerX - 4-8-2006 at 12:15 PM

Howie Mandel and Robin Williams didnt make the list either.

XnMeX - 4-8-2006 at 12:40 PM

It's Eddie GriffiN with an N by the way

FUNNY bastard! Anyone that has not seen his stand up movie "Dysfunktional Family" needs to see it.

I voted Dennis Leary, but he needs more material. His cd's are funn y shit though.

I was thinking Dan Cook though.... Mitch Hedberg is the shit as well.

There are a bunch of others I have seen that I love.

And by the way....

Carlos Mencia sucks cock, is not even really a "beaner", and steals peoples material.

Ive seen a few bits of him after people were saying how funny his was, and I didnt laugh at a single joke of his. I understood his jokes, but just didnt see why they were so funny.

Other than that... I dont really follow comedians. My girlfriend loves Bill Cosby though.

i heard this too

SHAKO KEN - 4-8-2006 at 06:40 PM

i like steven wright & zach galifianakis for their absurd humor. jim gaffigan is funny but he's been
repeating the same material for years. marc maron has some good stuff. i don't care for carlin.

Steven Wright is awesome too!

DaveMoral - 4-8-2006 at 08:54 PM

Gaffigan cracks me up, he was great on That 70's Show...

joemaconmovies - 4-9-2006 at 02:57 AM

I'm a huge fan of Stella.

crazyfists28 - 4-9-2006 at 11:44 AM

my two favorite young comedians are/were dane cook and mitch hedberg, sucks that mitch died....dane is top of the class for the future of comedy, plus he is rumored to be hookin' up with jessica simpson

JUICE MAYNE MSHC - 4-9-2006 at 11:46 AM

you all should be put to death for forgetting RICHARD PRYOR.

Sam Kinison, Bill Hicks, Chappelle, Eddie Murphy ("Eddie Murphy Raw" is the "Age Of Quarrel" of stand-up movies), Pete Corealle on Sirius is funny as shit too.

F Dane Cook and F Carlos Mencia (real name Ned Holness, like NME said, not a real mexican...he is German & Honduran)

crazyfists28 - 4-9-2006 at 11:48 AM

no love for cook? what gives?

JUICE MAYNE MSHC - 4-9-2006 at 11:51 AM

I don't think he's funny...I'm just being a dick about it

crazyfists28 - 4-9-2006 at 11:57 AM

eh, to each his own, i don't follow comedians but saw him live twice and thought he gave alot of effort and really is an awsome guy in person,

thedog - 4-9-2006 at 02:08 PM

i didnt mention carlin or pryor
cause i figured those were just automatic.

i got the carlin box set and its awesome.

i say fuck bill cosby.

My buddy just hooked me up with some Dan Cook MP3's. Holy shit he is good.

upyerbum - 4-10-2006 at 11:42 AM

I've been a big fan of Dennis Leary for some time now. Not that I don't find the other's funny, but me and Dennis are on the same page.

JUICE MAYNE MSHC - 4-10-2006 at 11:45 AM

a lot of people say that Dennis Leary ripped his whole act off from Bill Hicks.

BDx13 - 4-10-2006 at 12:11 PM

yeah, i don't really follow comedians either. i like chappelle. steve harvey has a tremendous head of hair. not familiar with dane cook. the whole 'carlos mencia making mexican jokes but not being mexican' thing bothers me. don't like eddie griffin.

CR83 - 4-10-2006 at 02:32 PM

Here's a Dane Cook Sample. Just something I had laying around I guess.

You are correct about Rogan. I believe it was on Howard Stern.

crazyfists28 - 4-11-2006 at 06:15 PM

that does sound familiar to me as well. rogan is a goof but i loved that show he was on, news radio or whatever the title was

ENDERA.x - 4-12-2006 at 07:00 PM

crazyfists28 - 4-12-2006 at 07:12 PM

crazyfists28 - 4-13-2006 at 01:47 PM
