You have to be Mexican to get most of what Lopez is saying though. People that arent our race wont finda lot of his shit funny, but let me tell you some of the shit he says is ****ing halarious, because its true.

He talks about our race more then anything, again, its like you have to know what he's talking about.

For what its worth the first (and only) time I saw Mind of Mencia I chuckled a bit. There were a couple funny skits but I had no idea he was a joke stealer. Once I found that out I grew to despise him. And I also agree that George Lopez isnt funny at all...not even a little bit. My daughter loves his show and I watch it with her sometimes (to make her happy) and its gotta be one of the dumbest things Ive seen since Full House.

That's a bullshit excuse, because not everybody steals material. Carlin didn't steal material. Pryor didn't. Martin didn't. Louis CK, Patton Oswalt and Zach Galifianakis don't. BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE TO. They can come up with shit on their own. Only comics who don't have the wherewithal to write their own jokes steal.

And the comparison to music is bullshit too, because there's a huge difference between using a sample to create a new song and stealing a joke word-for-word. And look at the Coldplay-Satriani controversy: when musicians straight-up steal (as opposed to sample, which is a part of the artform these days) they get called out on it.

JUST BECAUSE OTHER PEOPLE DO SOMETHING DOESN'T MAKE IT RIGHT. I'm sick of people saying Mencia and Cook should get a pass for stealing because other people steal. It's ****ing reeruned.



This is bullshit, too. Stand-up is a COMBINATION of writing talent and performance talent. Stealing shit and saying it louder does not make you a good comedian. It makes you a hack. And it taints every ****ing dollar you make.

Your most successful music acts are always going to be the Britney Spears' Katy Perrys and Coldplays of the world.

Your most monetarily successful writers will always be the cock****ing John Grishams, James Patterson, and Dean ****s of the world

Now, your most successful standups are the Dane Cooks and Carlos Mencias.

It ****ing sucks, but you have to realize that most people are vapid and moronic and appealing to the lowest common denominator is the most successful from a fiscal standpoint.

His audience is women who think he's hot and dumbass frat guys.

I don't like him because he just seems to tell stories. It's like listening to some drunk at a party recount his escapades. I just don't care. You need to listen to a five minute story just to get one joke out of it. I prefer guys that actually make jokes.

Originally Posted by Mecca (Post 5591391)

That's how Carlin did comedy aswell, he just talked about more relevant things.

I've laughed at some of Dane Cooks jokes I won't lie.

I was listening to Cheech and Chong, George Carlin, and Flip Wilson records when you were barely an itch in your daddy's pants!
So don't try to ****ing tell me what constitutes cerebral or high-brow comedy; I was ahead of the curve when you were still in diapers young man!

If he would stop with the three warnings and the one congratulation for being edgy, he could cram three more jokes in there. Does he realize that? The truly edgy and dangerous are the ones that are puzzled by people’s reactions.

Because the guy has no boundaries; everyone get's equal love and hate. His overall shtick is at the very least a fork in the road compared to George Lopez.
I like his skits more than I like the stand up, but unlike Dane Cook; I can actually finish watching his stand up.

Tell me that shit he does Mario Lopez isn't funny. Tell me "person of Hispanic heritage Man" isn't funny. I grew up watching SNL from the beginning. From the original cast to Murphy, to Farley, Carvey, Myers, Meadows, etc., and I think I have a pretty good bead on what constitutes "funny".

See above.



You must not know a lot of places.

No, I must not hang out with a bunch of wannabe or failed comics.

Patton Oswalt sums up why Mencia sucks pretty well:

It always annoyed me that black comedians got a pass for making fun of whites while white comedians didnt have the nerve to throw it back because they didnt want to be labeled racist. That shit she said about Warren Sapp being so hot if she owned him she would even let him come into her house almost had me on the floor. ROFL

Patton Oswalt's stand-up albums are brilliant, and to dismiss his spot-on analysis of Mencia's shittiness because of three minutes he did at the roast of William Shatner is reeruned.

Also, you're reeruned.

Also, from what you said above that this is the only site you visit frequently that has hate for Mencia, wtf kind of sites do you visit? Every site i have been to all pretty much agree Mencia isnt ****ing funny at all.

I am sure some of his shit is funny, but everytime i have tried to watch him, all i can think of, and this reerun is making money off this shit. Well, shit.

You defend Mencia, you lose all cred when it comes to conversations about comedy. That's just how it is.

It's a huge challenge to overcome stage fright, remember your lines and get your timing down. What Menstealya and Cook do is unforgiveable. While I do think Larrys act is the epitome of lowest common denominator he has found his niche audience of yokels that are willing to show up in droves for his shows.

Yeah, Patton Oswalt is a cocksucking prettyboy. Elvis Costello skated on his Britney Spears sexiness. Artie Lang has a bestseller because he pumps out pablum for the masses.
