    <p>Chappelles show was sensational. Charlie Murphys true Hollywood stories and The ****** family are the real standouts to me. I also liked the doco when he organized a block party, seems a really nice bloke too.</p>

    <p>Eddie Murphy pretty much stopped being funny the moment the 80s ended but Raw....Delirious.....Trading Places.....Beverly Hills Cop.....Coming to America.......that there is a collection of comedy genius.</p>

    <p>Reckon my favourite comedian at the moment is probably Louis CK, loved his piece at the Oscars and find his stand-up really good too.</p>

    <p>I can see why people may hate McIntyre. His face and voice are incredibly annoying. His piece about kids is absolutely brilliant though.<br><br>
    IMHO the king of comedians is Dave Chapelle. Best since Murphy.<br><br>

    <p>I saw the kids piece..did nothing for me at all. But I don't have kids so maybe that's got something to do with it.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Agree on Chapelle, HalfBaked was my favourite stoner movie, not sure if it still holds up now..</p>

    <p>Can't go through this thread without mentioning the boys from Broken Lizard. Super Troopers is their undisputed masterpiece but Beerfest and Slammin Salmon are top quality comedies too.</p>

    <p>I'm not surprised.  When he turned on people who just did their zips up easily, I completely lost it.  Tears, farts, couldn't breath.  Proper piss myself laughing moment.</p>

    <p>Halfbaked is a classic - right up there with Harold and Kumar Pt 1. Billy bong Thornton and Wesley Pipes  = fucking epic. </p>

    <p>I always assumed that her fanbase is women, I saw an episode of her tv show and it was fairly excruciating .</p>

    <p>Ha well I get this one too now. I have a female friend who is absolutely lovely but to put it nicely is a bit of a mess, not in a terrible way, just is always victim of circumstance and not willing or able to be self-responsible for day to day life. This humour resonates with her massively.</p>

    <p>Genuinely sad when Dave walked away from comedy. Grew up on Raw and Delirious so Eddie will always be a favourite. Can still quote chunks of either show.</p>

    <p>Yeah Louis is excellent. Reminds me of Carlin who was a massive influence on Louis.</p>

    <p>Just watched Bill Burr on Netflix and I recommend that for a laugh. Great show.</p>

    How anyone found Arrested Development worth more than one light chuckle per season is beyond me. I watched part way into the second season and quit.<br><br><br><br>

    <p>It's all OK now, I have just read that Harrison Ford has confirmed a new Indiana Jones movie!</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Yay. Hopefully his long lost son won't kill him.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>For once the stupid newspaper habit of replicating reaction tweets has uncovered something funny....</p>

    <p>Jobs. This movie could have been renamed 'Asshole'.</p>

    <p>Might have been interesting for Apple lovers for the techie side of things, but the way he treated people closest to him turned my stomach.</p>

    Which one is that? He came across as a colossal cock in the Ashton Kulcher one but they've made at least one more film about him .
