Most talented Wayans Sibling I like all of the Wayans siblings-they're all very talented, but I think that as far as being funny that Marlon takes that trophy  . Also, their big brother Keenan seems to be great in the production area of movies and such  . Do you like these siblings? If so, who do you think is the most talented?

They're good-looking bruhs, but I can't stand what they do. I see very little good in it.
Damon's OK, I guess. All the others can go away, as far as I'm concerned. Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

But usually, I find their humor tasteless and buffoonish. Damon has shown some talent. Marlon did an OK job in Requiem for a Dream (although I wasn't bowled over). And I'm impressed by the volume of work that Keenan gets done. But I just wish they'd lift the bar on content. It's generally useless, IMO. [Edited 7/3/06 20:20pm] Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

I think this can be said about alot of comedians and others for that matter today. Some of the content can be viewed negatively, but I think that they are just making a living off of what they do best . | |

Here's an entire family of handsome, well-spoken young brothers who've had access to the attention of an entire generation since In Living Color. They've broken formidible talent from Jim Carey to Jennifer Lopez to even an Oscar winner like Jamie Foxx. They could totally go on to seize and redefine black comic cinema, if they so chose -- I'm talking the modern-day Marx Bros. or Three Stooges! But they waste the blessing on forgettable, crude humor. 
Just imagine the social statements they could make! [Edited 7/3/06 20:37pm] Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

I feel like we just had this convo on another thread 
Anyway... KEENAN is the best all-around talent - he acts a little, does comedy a little, produces, directs & writes... Marlon is the best actor in the bunch, he's pretty funny & writes as well... Damon is the best standup (if you can forgive his apparently hellish performance on the BET Awards, I skipped past it)... . [Edited 7/3/06 20:49pm]   I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it | |

BET showed an ILC episode the other night that had "the Black People's Awards" - it's super ghetto, even downright SAD at times but I gotta say I laughed my fucking ass off. I love some of the stuff they do, but I also have the sense to know when they go too far & I know everyone doesn't have that. I won't be going to see Little Man though, that shit looks like the unfunniest of the unfunny  I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!!

I hope I don't sound like too much of a fuddy duddy. It's just... they could be INCREDIBLE! But, yeah, people are who they are. I guess we've got to respect that. Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

Keenan and Damon for sure. Makes me glad I grew up with them and not the "Wayans Bros."
like for example.....check this clip out http://www.youtube.com/wa...n%20wayans | |
