Dave Chappelle is king of stand-up. (at least for our generation, it would have been interesting/awesome to witness George Carlin and Richard Pryor as we were able to with Chappelle)

Almost kings (taking what I just said in to consideration)…

-Ron White
makes me laugh just as hard as Chappelle. Absolutely love this joke and laugh every time I hear it.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0gxKStPXyn8

- Louis CK

I don’t know of many, but of those I do, Bill Hicks and Demetri Martin are my favourite.

Carlos Mencia

I think nobody mentioned them, which is surprising… You should check them out!

Carlos Mencia, thumbs down, imo. Richard Pryor anyone? He was the man, and not to mention Eddie Murphy was a wonderful stand-up in the day.

@Josh
Eddie Murphy – RAW… Top 10.

Carlos Mencia?? I’m sorry I can’t agree… I’m ok with blacks making fun of blacks. Whites making fun of whites. But Guatemalan’s making fun of Mexicans?? That’s just racist. I can’t stand that fool.

what do you guys think about this list? Would you subtract from it? add to it? or Just Re-Do the whole thing?

@Tony There’s a bunch of films in there I haven’t seen. Animal house definitely deserves a higher spot, Beverly Hills cop isn’t that funny, Lampoon’s vacation isn’t that funny either.

Most of the films on that list I would call “ok.”
