Am I the only one to think Dane Cook aint funny.
When Dane says his jokes and stuff i dont think its funny and everyone who laughs i think is imature
shareDude, you have to be crazy not to think he's funny!
sharehe is an above average observational comedian. but, his shtick is tired and overplayed. I've seen ameturs copy it easily all the time. all he does is move alot, quickly makes decent sound effects, and emphasis a few words so dumb ppl know when to laugh, kinda like carlos mencia or the guys on telemundo. And now that everywhere i go i hear how girls want to marry him "cuz he soooo gorgeous!! omgee" it makes a little red flag go up in my head that tells me we will look back on this craze 10 years for now and shrug. like ppl who liked the backstreet boys, gallagher, carrot top, and limp bizkit.
Lewis black, on the other hand, is a very good stand-up comedian with out sex appeal and gimmicks, and (beyond his sometimes uncontrollable shaking from rage) does not employ physical comedy as much as dane cook.
I agree fully.
shareI think Crimson Viper covers everything that I wanted to say....well, except that I don't consider Dane Cook to be "above average." He's not terrible. I'm a big stand-up fan, and have seen much worse comedians than him. But I deeply wish that people would stop viewing him as this generation's George Carlin. I think the fact that he's one of the few comedians who women can actually fantasize about without blowing chunks has something to do with his popularity. Women can finally say, "See? I told you I like a guy with a good sense of humor." I like the classify this generation as the A.D.D. generation. Young people spend less time reading and more time playing video games and engaging in other cerebrally devoid activities. So watching a comedian like Dane Cook who simply leaps around stage, mugging and doing crazy voices makes most young people roar with laughter...because it involves no thinking! On the other hand, watching a intelligent, witty comedian like Lewis Black doesn't appeal to most young people. I'm an exception, of course. I love Lewis Black. He has more talent in his left eye than Dane Cook will ever have. I always say comedy is played best by comedians who don't appear like they're trying to be funny. Black is angry, irritable, and never cracks a smile. That's how to do comedy!
shareLewis Black sucks - badly.
Regardless of what you think of Dane Cook, Lewis Black is an idiot.
He is so not funny
There are far more funnier than he. I like the description I have heard that he is the idiot's comedian as opposed to sophisticated comedian.
Same thing we do every night try to take over the world
