Conan O' Brien

[Mr.Matinee]

Conan!

[Alien]

I've never heard of Conan O'Brien.

[Mr.Matinee]

Let's see,host of Late Night with Conan O' Brian,which is on NBC,cousin to Dennis Leary.

[Alien]

Well I live in a whole other country and so don't get NBC. Ok we get Jay Leno's show on ITV2 sometimes and I've heard of David Letterman. Is Conan O' Brian the guy who was dancing on the Simpson’s "I Didn't Do It" Episode?

[Hitman]

Conan! The REAL King of Latenight.

[thebtskink]

Letterman.

[Citizen Kane]

Does that mean Letterman wins?

[killercowboy]

i guess so

[dr_evil]

yay:D

[Original]

woah that was a close one, Letterman wins 5 to 4 to 0

[tman662000]

How can anyone like Letterman better than Conan. Lettermans stupid games he plays are not funny at all, like WILL IT FLOAT or IS THIS ANYTHING?? Is that what passes for comedy these days, droping something in a tank and see if it floats. Conan is original, and while he may not have the best guests, he is the best at making stuff up on the fly. Conan is 10 times better than Leno, who is 10 times better than Letterman.

SURVEY SAYS.......this forum is rigged.

[Original]

Next Round is the Hollywood Greats turned Comedians.

Jack Nicholson vs. Robert Deniro

Nicholson.

[PapaGeorgioSmrf]

Deniro's character in Meet the Parents was perfect and hilarious, its nice to see he can do comedy as well as everything else.

but i would go with nicholson, if you've ever seen As Good As It Gets you'll see, he's awesome, also in anger management of course

[FunnyBone]

[jorich]

Deniro

Martin Lawrence. I guess some of you haven't seen Def Comedy Jam.

[Balrog of Moria]

[sphericthor]

Will Smith

[Rebecca]

Will Smith

[Tenafly Viper]

Martin Lawrence is a better comedian.
W. Smith is the better actor.

[jorich]

Will Smith. Although Martin Lawrence started-off as a comedian, he has become less and less funny. Will Smith is always a good interview.

Original got banned? Dropping like flies lately...

[Boods]

will smith

[originalz]

Will smith wins, 6-3, yes im back

[PapaGeorgioSmrf]

[jorich]

IT"S ALIVE...reviving this thread. Choose whomever you think is the funnier comedian between the two listed. I'll start with 32 total comediansHere's a recap of the few battles completed thus far:

Adam Sandler vs. Jim Carrey (Carrey)
David Letterman vs. Conan O'Brien (Letterman)
Robert DeNiro vs. Jack Nicholson (Nicholson)
Will Smith vs. Martin Lawrence (Smith)
Steve Martin vs. Martin Short (S. Martin)
Mike Myers vs. Dana Carvey (Myers)

So, without further ado, here's the next match-up:

BILL MURRAY
http://images.allposters.com/images/54/039_31742.jpg

vs.

DAN AKROYD

[Scarface]

Billy

[Darrin1]

Bill

[sabin26]

Two great comedians, imo, it's very hard for me to pick.......so with a flip of a coin.........Murray.

Btw you going to have Dennis Leary in this?

[sphericthor]

How can you do this to me!?! Just like Sabin, I'll flip a coin

*Flicks coin* Heads Murray wins

[Tenafly Viper]

Bill Murray

[obsessedwithsnl]

so hard to pick one.....Aykroyd

[Mr.Matinee]

There's no decisive winner in my opinion,so I vote for both.

[dr_evil]

Bill Murray

[jorich]

Bill Murray romps with a 7-1 bashing. Must've been his SpaceJams appearance ;). But honestly, Akroyd's resume over the past 10 years has pailed in comparison to Murray's, so no big surprise here.

I saw Denis Leary's name mentioned, so without further ado, here's the next battle...The Battle over "How to Spell Den(n)is":


Denis Leary
http://www.comedy-zone.net/images/comedians/leary.jpg

vs.
Dennis Miller

http://www.ohiounion.com/welcomeweek/images/dm.jpg

[sphericthor]

Leary

[Neo21]

Leary

[jorich]

The Ref rules as Leary puts a 9-3 whipping on Mr. Miller. Onto the next round Leary goes.

Next:

BERNIE MAC

http://www.newberrystar.com/bernie_mac_great_.jpg

vs.
EDDIE MURPHY

http://www.interinfo.co.jp/eddie%20murphy.jpg

I figure this one will be a tough decision since the "old" Eddie is one of the best ever...

[Hitman]

Jesus Christ. I get back from vacation and I already missed 2 good battles.

Eddie

[Neo21]

Eddie Murphy. Delerious is my all-time favorite stand-up!

[Balrog of Moria]

Eddie

[Rebecca]

Eddie.

[sphericthor]

EDDIE MURPHY, no competition

[dr_evil]

i like Bernie Mac better

[Artist]

Bernie Mac

[Chim-Chim]

Eddie Murphy

[Skywalker]

Eddie

[sabin26]

Eddie.........no contest

[Dogbert0228]

Steven Wright

[jorich]

Eddie wins 8-2 despite recent trash like Pluto Nash...he is undoubtedly one of the funniest ever if you go back to his SNL and stand-up days. Here are the results thus far as we've completed 9 of 16 first round match-ups:

Adam Sandler vs. Jim Carrey (Carrey)
David Letterman vs. Conan O'Brien (Letterman)
Robert DeNiro vs. Jack Nicholson (Nicholson)
Will Smith vs. Martin Lawrence (Smith)
Steve Martin vs. Martin Short (S. Martin)
Mike Myers vs. Dana Carvey (Myers)
Bill Murray vs. Dan Akroyd (Murray)
Denis Leary vs. Dennis Miller (Leary)
Eddie Murphy vs. Bernie Mac (Eddie)

The next match-up is a tribute to the old school...some of the cats who paved the way for today's comedians:

RICHARD PRYOR
http://www.kennedy-center.org/programs/specialevents/marktwain/images/pryor.jpg

vs.

GENE WILDER
http://devon.trigmafall.com/goodies/fox1.jpg

[Desperado]

Richard Pryor. My All-Time favorite comedian.

[Hitman]

Richard Pryor

[spiderman_2k]

Richard Pryor

[PapaGeorgioSmrf]

Richard Pryor all the way

[Sensation14]

Pryor.

[sabin26]

I like Wilder he was great. I like Pryor as well but I'm going with Wilder on this one.

[Rebecca]

Wilder

[sphericthor]

Damn that's a tough decision, it's a coin toss situation
Heads - Pryor
Tails - Wilder

*Tosses coin in the air*

Heads - Pryor gets my vote

[Tenafly Viper]

I luv ya Gene, BUT PRYOR is the MAN!

[dr_evil]

pryor

[IdahoMR2man]

My vote is for Wilder. Just good comedy.

From Richard Pryor:

On the set of Hear No Evil, See No Evil, he was talking about them being in a prison for weeks on end with real inmates. So Gene Wilder said one day that he wondered what would happen to them if they were really imprisoned. And Richard Pryor said, "Man they'd **** us". And Gene Wilder said, "Why would they do that? I'm not homosexual." And Richard Pryor said "They don't do it because YOU like it."
Gene Wilder was blazingly funny and he did it all with a wide eyed innocence to the world and was always a very kind man. Pryor was funny, but I respect Wilder more.

[jorich]

Richard Pryor beats out his ol' pal by a 9-3 score. It'll be interesting to see if Pryor can make it to the top of this battle despite his lack of awareness among the newer generation.

I was glad to see a good number of votes in a match-up featuring some of the original comics. Along those lines, we'll pay respect to a few guys who are no longer with us in this next match-up:

JOHN BELUSHI

Robert DeNiro vs. Jack Nicholson (Nicholson)

Robin Williams

[IdahoMR2man]

Robin Williams. Lesser of two evils...

[Tony Montana]

Robin Williams

[dr_evil]

Robin Williams:D



i just wanted to ost these:p
here are some robing william quotes:p

Robin Williams: Michael Jackson's claiming racism, I'm like "Honey, you gotta pick a race first!"


Robin Williams: Who would want to be Jerry, the brother of Christ? That's a tough gig...he ends up in a bar at the age of 30 going "Yeah, I'm Jerry Christ. Whoop-dee-doo." And people tell me Jesus wasn't Jewish... of course he was Jewish. 30 years old, single, living at home with his parents, come on. Working in his father's business, his mother thought he was God's gift, give it up!

Robin Williams: This whole winter was so bizarre! The temperatures were like "80, 20, 30, 50". The weathermen are going "I don't know what's ****ing going on! Let's just wait and see." The spring flowers are like Anne Heche going, "I'm in, I'm out, I'm in, I'm out."

Robin Williams: God gave man a penis and a brain. And only enough blood to run one at a time.
