Test: Chris Farley - funny or no?


I would put Jack Black above Seth Rogan, and I'm not a big fan of Jack Black. But it's not a chubby thing. Will Ferrell is not chubby and he's almost as bad as both of those guys. I may even put him below Jack Black.

Chris Farley had his moments on Saturday Night Live. I would put him in the realm of comedy, whereas Ferrell, Black, and Rogan are all tragedy.

But Chris Farley should not have won the SNL best cast member tournament we had a while back. Fat or skinny, he's not in the same league as Eddie Murphy in his prime.

Whoa. Will Ferrell? Are you a "comedy died with the Three Stooges" guy or something?

Why is it I desperately want to watch this movie while drinking a Boulevard Crown Town Ale???

We might be brothers. Ferrell is awful (except in Stranger Than Fiction and Everything Must Go).

Well, IMO, it was stupid for Sony to allow the film to be made using a real-life dictator, especially when said dictator has shaky relations with the US and Japan.

Ever seen Hot Shots 2? How about Team America: World Police? Is Kim Jong Un regarded in higher esteem than his dad or Saddam Hussein?

Considering North Korea's reaction, I think you have your answer.

No, but corporate America is stocked full of cowards, even more now than ever before.

Y'know, I was in a hotel room at some point and saw about 30 minutes of Everything Must Go, and I have to say I was intrigued. I kind of want to see the whole thing.

1. North Korea found out about this movie and said it should not be made.
2. Sony ignored them and produced the movie.
3. North Korea threatened to respond if Sony didn't pull it from the schedule.
4. Sony ignored them and planned the release, anyway.
5. North Korea hacked into Sony's network and threatened to release info.
6. Sony, again, ignored them.
7. North Korea began releasing embarrassing emails, obtained information about every Sony employees, threatened to post five unreleased films, as well as the $300 million budgeted Bond 24 script.
8. Sony threatens a 9/11 type of response if the film was released theatrically.
9. Exhibitors decided against showing the film.
10. Sony pulled it altogether.

North Korea has followed through with every threat. Do you really believe that Sony should have ignored the threat of violence, with possible loss of life, over a dopey movie?

Yes. But, to be fair, I was born with a working set of testicles.

Apparently, you were born without a brain.

No, that was working fine, too. It still is.

I just don't buy that NK has the ability to do a 9/11 style attack

I don't think Seth Rogan is funny, so...North Korea may be doing us all a huge favor.
