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

reply

Dane Cook is what would happen if Sam Kinison, in a rare moment of NOT being funny had sex with a nerd woman.

Give me Pablo Francisco anyday.

reply

He has a very teenage boy trying to be cool kind of funny. I bet jocks love him. His humor is stupid and strictly for teenage boys and drunken fraternity crowds. It seems like things we think are funny when we are young we wont laugh at when we are older. I loved Eddy Murphy's stand up act Raw when I was a kid, but I watched the other day and laughed maybe once. Dane Cook is probably making a lot of thirteen year olds laugh their buts off somewhere.

reply

Delirious is way better, so maybe Raw is a bad example. Also Cook has like 3 lines MAX in this movie. If you hate Dane Cook, don't see Employee of the Month, but you can definetly see Farce - he's barely in it.

reply

lmao why are all you haters on Farce's message board? atleast go to Danes page if you want to hate on him. And Dane is funny and its not all crude humour. Watch Vicious Circle and you'll see what I mean. People are just jealous of the fact that he's popular but what is great about him is that he connects with his fans. His site danecook.com is the best site of any comedian on the web. He respects his fans unlike some comics who just exploit them. Continue this arguement on his page.

reply

yes you must be the sophisticated type or just trying to be against the craze because that's the cool thing to do. Yes Eddie Muphy's RAW is not very good but if you were a fan of his then you would have seen delirious, that is a priceless act and should be up there as one of the best stand up acts ever. i am a huge fan of comedy, i love everyone from sinbad and mitch hedberg(RIP) to richard pryor and bill cosby. Dane Cook uses some material from other comedians as does everyone else he is turning comedy into something a lot of people respect and want to do now. He is very funny!!!

reply

I think Dane Cook is extremely funny and I am neither a teenage boy nor a jock. He just had a specific type of humor like "Family Guy" or "Monty Python". I think all three are funny, but some people just don't respond to that type of humor. I don't think you should be elitist and say that Dane Cook is only funny to certain people. It just makes you sound like an ignorant ass :-)

reply

Yes, you are the only one.

reply

Actually, I find him rather annoying. You aren't alone, dear.

reply

yeah you are the only one. and i think you are just stupid and you dont understand any of it...because if you did, you would laugh. hes a silly bitch =)

Well thank you! You just proved my point. He was on Saturday night live and sucked and you know it!! I gave him a chance and I ended up getting embarrassed for the guy. Leave it to a frat boy to get verbally abusive over a silly comment about a loser comedian. HA HA.

Im confused. Are you comming on to me? Dane Cook sucks! There take that!!

reply

I'm not a silly frat boy and I still think you're a prick :-) Oh, yes, how did you put it . . . HA HA.

reply

i was watching Fox and I saw a preview for Mad TV, this guy was spoofing Dane Cook, and one of his lines was, "You know that friend you have that always carries around a ladder? He's always got a ladder."

I laughed to hard, because THAT is something Dance Cook would say. Because he's not funny. Sure, he has his moments, almost every comedian does. But man... he's lame. I will take Mike Burbigs any day over him. Or Greg Hahn.



I will speak for you, and all mediocrities in the world. I am their champion, their patron saint.

reply

Dane Cook is NOT funny at all. He wants to be and I think people find him funny because they feel bad for how terrible he is. Bring on someone who's actually funny back like Eddie Murphy and Dane Cook would be crying like a little faeg.

reply

why would someone laugh at a joke because they feel bad for the comedian? That's pretty much the dumbest thing I've ever heard. I feel bad for YOU.

reply

Dane cook is hilarious.. He rocks forever... the end.

reply

well said

reply

of course your not the only one who thinks hes not funny.

I dont think he is...because he isn't. Simply put.

reply

But I'm 15, not some 45 year old stock broker. I like immature nonsense crap as much as the next person, but Dane Cook is just... not funny. And I have friends who think the same. I know we're a minority but there are people out there who think he's a complete embarresment to stand up comedy.

Ellen Degeneres is a true comedian. To me anyway.

reply

ummm..its spelled isn't...a contraction of is not. what is ain't a contraction of? moron. your point is therefore invalid

reply

Hah, yeah, I'm glad I'm not the only who noticed everyone who has been saying something negative about Dane Cook has horrible grammar and spelling.

reply

Dane Cook doesn't really do it for me all of the time. Everyonece in a while I get a chuckle. I prefer Patton Oswalt for my money right now.

reply

Nope. I'm with you all the way. He's not funny! He's the kind of comedian only a stoned college frat guy would think is funny---he's obnoxious and loud and he talks like a stoned college frat guy and that effing stupid routine he did on Comedy Central where he spent five minutes bouncing around crouching, squeezing his eyes shut, with his hand on his head (showing us way too much of what we wanted of his pubic-hair-looking armpit hair in his ugly wifebeater) while making hissing noises. WTF was that? I think it was some stupid imitation of the Alien from "Alien" or something, but he's just not funny

You people rant about how "Immature" he is and all that other stuff, thats the great thing about him; he can act like an ass and he has fun doing it, and is funny as hell while doing it. Immaturity is a great thing about comedy. Pretty much ALL of the comedians out there stand at the microphone and talk, Dane runs around and he has so much energy and he shows how much he loves to do comedy. Did any of you see "Vicious Circle"??? THAT was some funny stuff.

reply

This is so dumb. Obviously he has more people who like than people who don't like him. That would be why he is over rated. And if you don't like that then shut up, because you are just adding to his fame. You are making people talk about him. If you would just shut your mouth all the hype would die down. But because you have to keep his name in the spotlight he's gonna stick around for a while, the production companies will continue to hire him, and maybe he will even become a legend in comedy. There is obvisouly a good explanation to why he is over rated in your eyes: Because the good majority of our society think he is funny.

I hate the "word" "ain't", you redneck.

reply

Are you trying to say Dane Cook is gay? Because I DO NOT think that is funny. BTW neither is Dane Cook. Waiting was a good movie but Dane Cook sucked in that. Still I don't think you should be saying Dane Cook is a homosexual, because I don't think he is. I could be wrong, though.

i agree he is the perfect example of a hack

Seems like I shut everyone up! How great am I?! Can I hear someone say it?!
