Chris Farley's a genius
 

Everytime he's on SNL i know i'll be expecting comedy gold. Unlike others who i like certain bits that they do, Farley can do anything and i still laugh, not just cute laugh, but a serious laugh (kind of a paradox??), like a real laugh. He's also my favorite long term cast member, i do recall he was in it as early as David Spade and up to Ferrell's days.

When Farley was a boyfriend on the Melrose Place sketch replying to Mike Myers' questions: "What are you trying to say?" "i'm saying i had sex with your girlfriend in various positions for hours" "What are you getting at?" constantly waving his large beach boy "Ace Venturish" hair-do back.

Even when he's serious, playing the cameraman part on a morning show with Ferrell and Cheri Oteri when Farley hosted SNL, every single time they cut to him i laugh so hard.

Oteri: -biggrin- When did you run into Will Smith?

Farley: I ran into Will Smith over the weekend. -biggrin-

Oteri: When did you run into Will Smith, when did you run into him? -biggrin-

Farley: :whofart: ..... OVER THE WEEKEND YOU STUPID BITCH!

I do miss him and good SNL episodes.

He was a great actor, I thought he was friggin hilarious, when he was the bus driver, in a scene in billy madison, that was just classic.. see the movie if you havent, to see what i mean..

I know I'm in the minority, but I didn't find him anything spectacular. There were a few skits that are now classic (Chippendales, Slitz Gay, Motivational speaker). But for the rest, he just tried to hard and everything seemed forced to me. Didn't find any of his movies all that great either. Kinda meh. Take it or leave it. Way overrated, IMO.

That Veronica Vaughan is one peeeeece of aisssss!

I think sometimes he relied too much on being the fat guy yelling and going crazy to be funny, but most of the time he was hilarious...

one of my top 10 from SNL all time I would say

Wasn't smart enough to stay away from the drugs.

You think?

One of my last favorite memories was Farley doing a guest spot on snl before he died. He appeared in a skit about the "super bears fans" in which he is told by Ditka that he no longer coaches the bears, he coaches the saints, and they suck.

As opposed to him doing a guest spot after he died?

Farley was a decent physical comedian, but that's about it. He was certainly no actor, but he was a fat guy willing to take off his shirt or go through a table. I wonder how he would've matured as a performer if he hadn't shit his life away on drugs.

Tupac Shakur's on the phone for you, shall I tell him to leave a message?

I think people who don't know Chris Farley shouldn't be talking about him!

"I am EL NINO! It's spanish for... THE NINO!" :lol:

From "Tales of Little Women:"

Toby Adams (Farley): [sounds of ice cracking, followed by screaming] Gooooodd!!! Oh, my Gooooooddddd! Sonofabitch! Ohhhhhh!! Sonoabitch!! I can't feel my legs! Oh, Mother of God, help me! Don't just STAND there! DO something, you bastards!! Pull me out of this icy hell, you little pillow biter!
