Delirious is better than Raw
Ooh, I love the part in 'Kings Of Comedy' when Steve Harvey talks about old school music Martin Lawrence is, unfortunately, not even close to deserving a spot in the top five. He has his moments, but overall, he is not that funny. It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

Chris Rock's "Bring the Pain" is way better than Martin Laurence. It made him a household name.
I would also replace Kings of Comedy with Steve Martin's "Wild and Crazy Guy". Of your five? Richard Pryor. Without him, none of the other 4 would even be here. Studies have shown the ass crack of the average Prince fan to be abnormally large. This explains the ease and frequency of their panties bunching up in it. |

I really love Whoopi Goldberg's Direct From Broadway film.
I bought the 2-DVD set when it was released. So mad I missed her Back on Broadway show in 2005. | |
