I only ever saw him in Billy Maddison in the 90s (which I thought he was funny in) but I watched his documentary recently and didn't most of the clips shown to be very funny at all.
If he was still alive today he would get torn to shreds by the internet.
Nathaniel Morgan
>heres my opinion on something I don't really understand
Adrian Thompson
He had incredible energy for a man his size, he never reached his true potential.
Cameron Cooper
It's because of his work on SNL
Aiden Garcia
>If he was still alive today he would get torn to shreds by the internet.
Really? Consider the fact Tim & Eric and shows like that are essentially the same thing, though more abstract.
Jaxon Jones
As much as I love his comedy movies I think he really wasn't that funny and the best part of his performance is his energy and passion towards selling it. I think if he was still alive he might've really done some good dramatic work.
Evan Barnes
that's possible. just look at how John Goodman's career evolved.
Colton Evans
He was hilarious, are you faggots serious? It wasn't always about his weight either, he was GOAT in Billy Madison, Dirty Work, the SNL Gay beer ad, the Paul McCartney sketch etc. I don't know why I even lurk Sup Forums anymore, you're all fucking faggots.
Nolan Morgan
You are cornered by a fat ninja! What do you do?
Christian Cox
yeah I have no clue why this guy is so highly rated it seems like it's just that single obnoxious character. I've tried watching Tommy Boy so many times and it does nothing for me and I'm a sucker for stupid comedies
Christopher James
he literally got famous because of the chippendale's skit, in which
>lol it's funny because he's fat
i'm trying to discuss whether he ever moved on from that.
Josiah Peterson
ya it was pretty funny
early 90's was last time SNL was good
pre-jimmy fallon, pre-SJW
Ryan Harris
>he doesnt think this is the purest vein of comedykino
Adam Brown
I was born in 1998 and have never heard of this person.
Zachary Campbell
>a celebrity dies, suddenly they are considered a genius for their works.
why dis?
Brayden Phillips
>tfw philip seymour hoffman won't be playing chris farley in the inevitable biopic
Dominic Hughes
he died the year before you were born. he was almost Jim Carrey popular in the 90's as a comedy star, but since he died so quickly, he isn't as well known by young people today. apparently kids today don't talk to their parents much because i find it hard to believe your dad never mentions him.
Connor Miller
It's a good thing being born in 1998 means your opinion doesn't matter then...
Logan Powell
Chris Farley was his generation's Melissa Mccarthy but angry autists will never admit it
Gavin Fisher
He was funny on SNL and in a couple of movies but most of his movies were dog shit.
Julian Bennett
Yes he's the fat man who yells and screams but he actually had the charisma and talent to actually sell it
Wyatt Sullivan
>the decaf coffee crystals skit
what were they shooting up when they made that?
John Ramirez
>I was born in 1998
>and you're allowed to post here
Alexander Wright
DON'T YOU EVER TALK TO ME OR MY CHILDHOOD EVER AGAIN!
Jaxson Edwards
The guy had amazing range and reactions probably because he was on so much of the stuff that killed him. Thanks Andy Dick.
These are great.
Isaiah Kelly
Basically.
Her best role was probably Bridesmaids
Owen Wright
DUDE VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER LMAO
Parker Campbell
Underage b&
Zachary Robinson
underage? that skit debuted back in the early 90's and i'm aware of it. i could be 28 for all you know
Aiden Powell
tfw you realize people born in 1998 are now adults.
Luis Martin
Legally adult =/= adult
Brandon Johnson
Chris Farley was genuinely talented at physical comedy. You can see a night and day difference if you compare him to the likes of Kevin James. The style of comedy he did was not by any means easy.
Benjamin Cruz
>..........I'm sorry, I don't speak Japanese.
that delivery obliterates my sides every time
Landon Harris
The thing about Chris is that he was an actor not a stand up so younger people don't seem to really get that what makes him so funny is his delivery and body language, he's perhaps the best physical comedy actor ever.
His small part in Dirty Work is GOAT. Damn Saigon whores.
Nathaniel Hughes
>best physical comedy actor ever
I mean...I'm a huge Chris Farley fan, but that's a tough sell. Chaplin has him beat
Joseph Nelson
Keaton > Chaplin
Adrian Adams
>Schmitt's Gay
Liam James
...
Nolan Morales
That nigger guy Kramer is even better at physical comedy
Dylan Evans
Hence why I said "perhaps".
Frankly I find his work a lot funnier that Chaplin or Keaton. I have a lot of respect for them but comedy evolves so quickly that those old silent comedies come off more amusing to me than laugh out loud funny.
Ian Morgan
>incredible energy
>cocaine
Pick one
Tyler Flores
youtube.com
He's pretty funny, dude.
Jackson Gomez
Why would you find that hard to believe? Do you really think anyone would have any reason to talk about chris farley unless a movie of his was on?
Parker James
He was funny but the movies he was in are one-note garbage.
Gavin Walker
Retard
Brayden Stewart
Yea thats exactly what cocaine does, what is your point?
Wyatt Price
>MOTHER OF MERCY, I DON'T SPEAK JAPANESE!!!!!!!!
he might have yelled a lot but at least he was good at it.
James Powell
Tommy Boy & Black Sheep are legitimately funny and great movies.
Parker Williams
i would honestly fucking cry, cause if a fat man can be a ninja u really dont know what the fuck he could do to you
Adam Martinez
I don't see how a mad, yelly fat guy falling down and breaking a table isn't funny 2bh.
Daniel Myers
Tommy Boy is definitely one of the comfiest movies ever made.
>It's the end of the world as we know it and I Feel Fine
Christopher Adams
there are lots of reasons. maybe he sees a commercial that reminds him of Farley or hears a particular phrase that reminds him of something Farley said in a movie once. Farley was very popular back then. he is still in the hearts of a lot of people who were around when he was popular. don't you ever have a memory of something you remember fondly pop in your head and feel the need to mention it out loud?
Camden Hernandez
he hated being "fatty fall down" but felt obligated to give the audience what they wanted
Asher James
it's funny for a minute but gets old fast. it's one of the things he got famous and popular for. he literally walked into a room, yelled a lot, was fat, and fell down and broke a table and the audience fucking erupted. at one point in the skit David Spade put his hand over his mouth to mask his laughing because he was losing his composure. that's how funny everyone thought he was. to this day my dad talks about how he laughed until he couldn't breathe when he saw the Matt Foley bit back then.
Brody Gray
he got such a reaction out of people with that bit that he never got away from it. had he gotten help and continued living to this day he would have though.
Leo Ross
Unlike Adam Sandler
Daniel Hill
He did it well. Not every fat person is funny.
Bentley Diaz
He's the most limber fat guy who ever lived.
Jose Collins
everybody loves you when you're dead.
Xavier Murphy
you couldn't be more wrong
Chase Hughes
He was like John Candy's wild fratbro nephew.
After those two died, fat guy comedy hasn't been the same.
RIP in Reese's Pieces
Juan Thompson
Him and Rob Lowe should have done a comedy. Rob Lowe doesn't do enough comedy. He did that better than the handsome lead thing. They have enough guys for that.
Liam Stewart
Nah, Lowe is a terrible comedian.
At this point of his career, it's just sad trying to see him make people think he is.
Anthony Ramirez
farley shouldn't have wasted his brief career partnered with david fucking spade.
Connor Cooper
at this point he's done plenty of comedy since he was on parks and rec.
Lincoln Parker
Candy and Farley had a very different comic style though, Candy was more subtle.
Ryder Carter
That's what he's saying, Candy wasn't so much a physical comedy guy he was always ready with zingers and comebacks.
Aaron Stewart
>he was almost Jim Carrey popular in the 90's
Lolno.
Jaxon Gray
Hang yourself
Kevin Diaz
you sound like someone who wasn't around when Chris Farley was popular. SNL was huge at the time, and good, and he was their star for a couple of seasons, then he got more exposure with movies.
Ian Cruz
Absolutely this. SNL was actually respected and cared about.
The decline started when Colin Quinn took over Weekend Update.
William Gray
>and good
Lolno.
Owen Bailey
what's good?
Liam Adams
>Sup Forums is full of children
I really don't understand how many times I can forget that.
Oliver Stewart
The Two Ronnies
Hunter Ortiz
>it was huge back then even though all its highest ratings have been recently
Hmmmm..
Joseph Thompson
doesn't change anything. it was still huge back then.
Tyler Collins
But not as huge as it is now.
Which completely and utterly invalidates your entire point.
Owen Richardson
Johnny Knoxville pontificated on his appreciation of some of the golden and silver era physical comedians. The I Love Lucy chocolate factory scene was a genius--the commentary on women entering the workplace--Lucy had decided she wanted a job--is easily lost on modern audiences. It's not as simple as falling down and breaking stuff. Most of Farley's characters were more complicated than that too.
Daniel Campbell
>not as huge as it is now
Eli Mitchell
My problem with that movie is that I live in Ohio, and at the end they need a plane for a 40 minute drive tops
Hunter Gutierrez
Do they teach millennials to use their feelings when determining everything?
Adrian Gutierrez
Overall, that movie was a love letter to the mid-west though.
Cooper Young
...
Easton Stewart
Ive watched it a lot, mostly because of that
Hudson Harris
Are Tommy Boy and Black Sheep the same movie?
Colton Hall
They're both road trips with Farley and Spade.
