What is your favourite comedy movie?

If it airs with a woke disclaimer in front of it, it's probably in my top ten. For example, I turned on Blazing Saddles the other day on HBO Max and it had a lengthy (I don't know how long, I fast-forwarded through it) racial sensitivity diatribe in front of it.

Who's your favourite stand up comic?

Similar to above. If they aren't already dead, they'd have been cancelled by now. No one will ever top Carlin and Pryor.

Sean was one of the funniest blokes I've seen. Even his banter was top notch.

Shame the universe decided to take him so early..

Damn, all the good ones. Thank goodness they've been captured on audio and film for all to see.

It was way back in 2005 when I saw Mitch Hedberg here in Pittsburgh for the first and my last time.
Less than a month later he passed away. I was amazed at how incredibly shy Mitch was. And he hated repeating his jokes.

Hands down - Bill Burr

Runner up - Dave Chappelle

Honorable mention - Chris Rock

Possibly Rock wouldn’t have got slapped if he’d had a gun.

The best drunk comic! I've always found drunk jokes funny as hell too.

Would have loved to have seen Mitch live... and alive. His delivery was great, made it even funnier.
