Chris Tucker vs Chris Rock

[Tarik One]

Who's funnier? A better Actor?

I'll add this the other many "Actor A" vs "Actor B" threads

Although Chris Rock has a much longer resume than Chris "I only do Rush Hour Movies" Tucker, I'd go with Tucker in both categories. His roles in "Friday", "Money Talks" "Dead Presidents (his best acting role) and even his small role in "Jackie Brown" are superior to anything Rock has done.

[plowking]

Tucker.

Rock now relies on strictly racist jokes aganist whites to get laughs. They just aren't funny.

Tucker was awesome in Fifth Element as well.

:applause:

[Mamba]

chris rock > tucker

rock had his own tv show, alot of great movies, was lil penny (lets not forget) and has some of the best standups ever.

tucker is great.

i like rock better though.

[LJJ]

Stand up it's not even up for debate.

But I do prefer Tucker on the big screen. Ruby Rhod was a great character.

[El Kabong]

I've seen way more Chris Rock then Chris Tucker, but maybe that's why I like Chris Tucker more. He's not as worn out as Rock is. He was the second best thing about The Fifth Element, with Milla Jovovich being the first.

[LJJ]

I just love that movie. This (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JB4AEbj8iww&feature=related)was a great scene.

She was fine in that movie. I think every guy would have given it to her.

[Rasheed1]

it depends....

Chris Rock's commentary is much more relevant politically and socially, plus he is much more clever... But sometimes Chris Tucker is simply more funny..

Chris Tucker is an extremely funny guy...

Chris Rock is very funny and very clever in his jokes

[Jackass18]

Chris Rock just isn't a very good actor, but he's had some funny roles. I was never a big fan of his stand up. It was too much, 'white people this and white people that, blah blah blah.' I'd go with Tucker in movies no question.

[Jenna J]

Chris Tucker only does Rush Hour films....so Chris Rock wins by default

[Hoodlum Science]

Stand up it's not even up for debate.

But I do prefer Tucker on the big screen. Ruby Rhod was a great character.

yeah what he said poppa gives thumbs up

[GiveItToBurrito]

Has Tucker done anything without Jackie Chan this decade? I remember liking him as a kid, but his voice and persona are pretty grating, and I don't know if I can respect a comedian who does one movie every five years. Chris Rock's humor can be predictable, but he's still funny and so good at "white people this, black people that" jokes that I don't even mind it. I don't know who's a better actor, but Rock's definitely had some bad roles, and he seems less likable on camera. I still think Chris Rock is more talented, though.

[El Kabong]

Chris Tucker only does Rush Hour films....so Chris Rock wins by default
So you've just ignored Friday, The Fifth Element, Dead Presidents and some others just because his last 3 films were in the Rush Hours series, with the first one being very good and the second passable.

[Hoodlum Science]

Chris Tucker only does Rush Hour films....so Chris Rock wins by default

do you want to know what you right 'bout?

NOT A DAMN THANG!

[KOLBCTEW]

I'd Prefer Tucker over Rock as well in terms of acting, in terms of standup comedy probably Rock.

[tastystaci]

I'd Prefer Tucker over Rock as well in terms of acting, in terms of standup comedy probably Rock.

This. Besides Rush Hour 3, there probably isn't a movie Chris Tucker did that I didn't like. Friday, Jackie Brown, Dead Presidents, etc. C'mon, all great films. Chris Rock on the other hand, the exact opposite.


Chris Tucker's Acting>Chris Rock's Standup

[andgar923]

Reallly?

Wow


Its no competition

Rock>>>>>>> Tucker

And it aint even close.

Forget movie roles and acting, Rock >>>>>> Tucker

But the GOAT is still this man:

You know, I wish to allmighty Lord vader that you would change that creepy a$$ avi, but I'm with you right now. How is this even a legit comparison. Chris Tucker has been hilarious 3 times in his life.

1. Def Comedy Jam performance
2. Friday
3. Rush Hour 1

Every other time he's been kinda funny. Chris Rock is brilliant every single time he takes the stage. Granted, his movies are trash but standup (the true barometer for comedians) is where he sh*ts on about 75% of every comedian ever. But, like my man Biggie said, Eddie is the GOAT. That dude is funny no matter what. His movies have turned to sh*t yet he is still hilarious. Plus, Delirious, Raw, Coming To America, Beverly Hills Cop, and 48 Hours are greater than anything either one of these guys have ever done.

[The Magic Man]

Chris Tucker's Acting>Chris Rock's Standup

You've been riding the short bus since you joined ISH, I swear. Chris Tucker's acting? GTFO! You gonna list Jackie Brown and say he attributed to that being a great film? Why? Because without all of his 6 minutes of "magic" the movie woulda went straight to dvd? He was funny in Dead Presidents. Great? Come on. Chris Tuckers "acting" is no where near the brilliance of Chris Rock's standup material. And all the b*tching white people saying he is racist, give it a rest. Rock is one of the most respected black comedians of our generation. He's always performing with Sienfield, Crystal, Robin Williams, and other elite white comedians. Dude sh*ts on black people in his comedy more than whites anyway.

Funny you mention Rock and white people, since his writing partner is this dude:

http://www.esquire.com/cm/esquire/images/louis-ck-WI-0807-lg.jpg

And like you mentioned Seinfeld is one of his boys/writing partners as well.

Speaking of the GOAT (Eddie Murphy):

[blasian]

Tucker's a better actor(his performance in Dead Presidents makes me wish he did more dramatic movies) but Rock is FAR better at standup, it aint even close

This is still one of the best standup bits of all time
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7b2oCYgfik

And I dont agree with whoever said that Rock's whole shtick is racism against white people. If you've watched his standup specials you'd realize that

1) He's far harder on black people than he is on white people
2) He talks about other things outside of race(ie. gender roles, relationships, society in general)

[Jackass18]

The quick, shortened version would be:

Stand up: Rock
Movies: Tucker

Any dispute with that?

Man, even in the OTC you Lakers guys are f*cking mind numbingly stupid and annoying. Nobody said he carried Jackie Brown, but he was great in his limited role. I can't think of one thing Rock added to any movie.

Dogma-sucked
Pootie Tang-sucked
Osmosis Jones-sucked
Bad Company-sucked
Head of State-extra sucked

The list goes on and on. Great stand up comic, horrible actor in horrible movies. The laughs he gets in stand-up don't make up for the hours on end wasted while watching his horrible movies. I'm a movie guy. For me Chris Tucker>Chris Rock. Don't like it, then eat my ass...like all Chris Rock movies do. :lol

[Jailblazers7]

Nope, I agree.

[blasian]

I think Rock is a better actor than some of ya'll are giving him credit for. He's just had bad roles for the most part.

But he was great in New Jack City and Nurse Betty(I can't be the only person here who's seen this flick lol)

First off, muthaf*cka, YOOOUUU listed Jackie Brown as a great movie on Chris Tucker's resume. Let's watch, shall we?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGe9FU-bBlM

Damn, look at how he holds that joint. That's the stuff acolades are built on.
Now, the continuation of his Oscar worthy performance...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2iPbfEEEvM

So many emotions in that scene. Disbelief. Anger. Street hunger. Yup, you sir are right. Chris Rock has nothing on this man. :rolleyes: Now the question should be is Tucker's acting better than Rock's stand up? Not even a little bit. Now, let's talk about movies. Yea, Rock makes bad choices in movies. That said, are you gonna tell me that he still isn't funny in those bad movies? What about HIS small roles?

Beverly Hills Cop
Boomerang
I'm Gone Git You Sucka
CB4!!!!!! (tell me that sh*t wasn't funny)
Leathal Weapon 4
Down To Earth (funny sh*t)
The Longest Yard

What about his tv show? That sh*t was golden. Dude, I like Tucker but he is no where near Rock. All Tucker does is niqqa srereotype acts. Loud a$$, ignorant black dude who curses a lot. Rock is smart and will hit you from all over the place with his comedy. Staci, you have been dead wrong in just about every thread you've posted in. Give up man...or woman.

[L.Kizzle]

Chris Rock is considered one of the greatest comics EVER. I love Chris Tucker, but is e proven to have a complete special on his own ...

Rocks stand up specials inculde

Five specials of his own:
1994: Big Ass Jokes
1996: Bring The Pain
1999: Bigger and Blacker
2004: Never Scared
2008: Kill the Messenger
And Four other appearances on HBO/ect:
1987: Uptown Comedy
1989: This is Chris Rock
1989: Evening at the Improv
1996: Def Comedy Jam

Not to mention his work on SNL And ILC and The Chris Rock Show and Everybody Hates Chris.

-----

Chris Tucker only has:
Two Def Comedy Jam appearances in 92' and 93'


Rock > Comedy big time, not even up for argument


Tucker has also only done a few movies, not even lookin up on IMDB, he's done House Party 3, Friday, Dead Pres, Fifth Element, Jackie Brown, Money Talks, Rush Hour 1,2 and 3, that's it, TEN films. Five of them he was a main character.

I'll admit, his roles are funnier than CR is films, but he hasn't done enough. I could probably think of five main roles CR has done that are funny. CB4, I Think I Love My Wife, Down to Earth, Pootie Tang, ect.



So Stand up comedy, out of 10: Rock 10 > Tucker 2
Films, out of 10: Rock 6 > Tucker 7

[GiveItToBurrito]

hahaha I loved the episode of The Office where Michael Scott quoted that bit. Hilarious.

[Richie2k6]

I prefer Tucker but Rock is better. Chris Rock standup just doesn't make me laugh a lot for some reason though.

Other comedians I prefer over Rock: Murphy, Lawrence, Ced, Harvey, Bruce Bruce

Thanks for the clips, I forgot how hilarious that scene was, and how Chris Tucker f*ckin killed it. And thanks for backing me up in our argument. As usual, Laker fans never disappoint on the level of stupidity they will stoop to.

It's hilarious how you clown me for using Jackie Brown on his resume, then you bring up Boomerang and I'm Gonna Get You Sucka where Rock's characters didn't even have names, just rib joint customer and valet. :roll: You, like all the other Laker f*cksticks are such epic failures, all one can do is laugh. Look, this is me laughing at your dumbass :roll:

Give me Friday, Money Talks, Dead Presidents, Jackie Brown, Fifth Element, Rush Hour. You can have some standup and a sitcom on the WB. Now STFU and watch your Lakers get dug into tonight you f*ckin clown.

And I'm gonna hammer this sh*t out :hammertime:

Typical Ishiot. Still arguing even though you've proven to be an idiot. Some standup? Okay. A sitcome on WB? Yea, cus all the awards his HBO show won doesn't count. And I shall watch my Lakers tonight. I'm glad you pick us to lose. With your track record, looks like we should get a win tonight. Thanks man....or woman.

[L.Kizzle]

Rock and Tucker come from that late 80s' / to mid 90s' Def Comedy Jam, In Living Color era of black comics (Rock slightly early but what the hell.) He's in that first tier of these comics though but at the very bottom of that tier.



Comics from that era I'd rank over Tucker, (no hate, I love CT!)
Damon Wayans
Martin Lawrence
Dave Chappelle
Eddie Griffin
Cedric the Entertainer
David Alan Grier
Tommy Davidson
D.L. Hughley
Bernie Mac
Bill Bellamy


Hmmm: Tucker is some where around here
Mark Curry
Steve Harvey


He's better than:
Jamie Foxx
Joe and Guy Torry
Tracy Morgan

[Killer_Instinct]

Easy.

Chris Rock in standup.

Chris Tucker on film.

[DeuceWallaces]

Anyone trying to defend Rock's movie career is retarded. He has several of the worst films of the past two decades.

[No_Look604]

Chris Tucker only does Rush Hour films....so Chris Rock wins by default


that's the problem!! It's a shame he doesn't do more work.


"Smokey" & "Day-Day" together in Friday 4 would be ill.

Everything you said was dead on...but better than Jamie Foxx??

Movie-wise I'll agree....stand up? No way, seems like Tucker just did def

jam and that was it.

I think Jamie Foxx wins by default because of his sitcom.

That show is golden.



I think stand-up wise Bernie Mac might be the best. Original Kings of Comedy proved that

Chappelle Show>>>Martin>>>Jamie Foxx show>>>everything else shiiite (sitcom wise)

[rawimpact]

you mean it isnt the same person?

wtf

[kidachi]

rock all the way

[Tarik One]

Everything you said was dead on...but better than Jamie Foxx??


Jamie Foxx is not that funny and he was nothing more than a poor man's Martin Lawrence on his sitcom.

[Rasheed1]

Bill Bellamy? c'mon Kizzle :oldlol:

Bill Bellamy aint better than Chris Tucker..

Eddie Griffin
Tommy Davidson

Needs to be switched with

Tracy Morgan
Jamie Foxx


Tracy Morgan is a funny cat.... Him and Jamie gotta be above Eddie Griffin and Tommy Davidson

[Dasher]

Chris Tucker has nothing on Bill Bellamy. Bill is the best pretty boy comic of all time.

[Rasheed1]

Chris Tucker has nothing on Bill Bellamy. Bill is the best pretty boy comic of all time.



not you too!:roll:

God Damn I hate bill Bellamy.... the guy is wild corny....


Alright... then whats the math on Eddie Griffin and Tommy Davidson?

them 2 are corny mofos too....

I'll give David Alan Grier his dapz.. he is funny ..... but them other 2 are ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ :sleeping

[Dasher]

Bill Bellamy made "How To Be A Player". Which was at the time a groundbreaking film.

I don't do Tommy Davidson. I never got his appeal. Eddie is hit or miss also. Chris doing stand-up was always terrible to me. He should stick to films.

Chris Rock has had a couple of good films. When you factor in his TV stuff and stand-up, it makes a comparison to thread to Chris Tucker seem a bit silly. This is Pookie we are talking about. He played the only crackhead/junkie that I have ever pitied on film.

[Tarik One]

How to be a Player was a ripoff of Thin Line between love and hate.

Eddie Griffin is way overrated. Other than that "Michael Jackson is on crack" impression his whole schtick is bland.

Guy Torry is way funnier than his brother

One guy i can't stand is that AJ Johnson dude. He played the crackhead in "Friday"

[Dasher]

How to be a Player was a ripoff of Thin Line between love and hate.
No it was not. Thin Line Between Love and Hate was a rip off of Fatal Attraction. How to Be A Player stands alone as a cinematic masterwork. If it borrows from any movie heavily, it was Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

[Tarik One]

What I meant was they were cashing in on that particular theme of "players" and guys chasing 'tang. There were other movies of that ilk that came out at that time like Booty Call and Sprung. Boomerang was the first.

[Jackass18]

When has David Alan Grier ever been funny?

[L.Kizzle]

Bill Bellamy? c'mon Kizzle :oldlol:

Bill Bellamy aint better than Chris Tucker..

Eddie Griffin
Tommy Davidson

Needs to be switched with

Tracy Morgan
Jamie Foxx


Tracy Morgan is a funny cat.... Him and Jamie gotta be above Eddie Griffin and Tommy Davidson
-Don't hate on Bil Bellamy. Dude is the creator of the term "Booty Call" that has to go down for something. Also, his comedy specials are hilarious. 1994s' Booty Call I haven't seen in ages, but from what I remember, as great as was 2005's Back To My Roots.

-Eddie Griffin is also very great. I didn't really care for his Freedom of Speech from last season by Dysfunctional Family and VooDoo Child are gold. HIs 2 HBO specials from the early 90s were some of the best from each series.

-Tommy Davidson is very underrated comic. He had 3 special in the 90s'. Takin' It to DC from 90, Illin' in Philly from 91 (which is available on youtube check it out for yourselves) and On The Strength of New York in 96.

-Tracy Morgan is hilarious, his One Mic from Comedy Central back in 02 was great, but he's isn't above Tucker.

-Jamie Foxx is a very overrated comedian. He's funny, but that's about it. I've seen two of his three specials from HBO. His sitcom was nothing to brag about either. His best episodes came when Mark Curry was a guest or the later seasons when he was supported by Chris Spencer and Alex Thomas.

[Tarik One]

You mean BET level comic. They come a dime a dozen and talk about the same stuff

[L.Kizzle]

Bump

[clipps]

Both of them are overrated and annoying as hell. Neither are any funny. Both have annoying voices. Neither one makes a positive contribution to black comedy

[BRabbiT]

Chris Rock






There are only three things women need in life: food, water, and compliments.




classic.

[L.Kizzle]

Both of them are overrated and annoying as hell. Neither are any funny. Both have annoying voices. Neither one makes a positive contribution to black comedy

possible the funniest thing I have heard all day:roll:



@whoever said he wasnt a positive contributor....

what do you actually know about Chris Rock to say he isnt a positive contributor to the black community? please enlighten me

[L.Kizzle]

You tell me
You bought it up, I thought you had a list prepared?

[clipps]

Will Smith
Martin Lawrence
Mike Epps
Guy that played Craigs dad
Guy that played Craigs uncle
Eddie Murphy

I'll admit that Chris Tucker isn't bad on film, until he starts talking all fast. Chris Rock is better off doing stand up. I just think those 2 are overrated

[L.Kizzle]

Will Smith
Martin Lawrence
Mike Epps
Guy that played Craigs dad
Guy that played Craigs uncle
Eddie Murphy

I'll admit that Chris Tucker isn't bad on film, until he starts talking all fast. Chris Rock is better off doing stand up. I just think those 2 are overrated
Will Smith is not even a comedian. Mike Epps, seriously. "Guy that played Craigs dad and uncle" lol.

[DeuceWallaces]

Chris Tucker

[clipps]

Will Smith is not even a comedian..

My point exactly. The 2 chris's are overrated

[L.Kizzle]

http://images.rottentomatoes.com/images/object/event/wireimage/14/750/773_g.jpg

Tucker: "Hey man, these muhphuggas think I'm funnier than you."

Rock: "They think Kevin Hart is funnier than both of us ... haha"

[andgar923]

Who's funnier? A better Actor?

I'll add this the other many "Actor A" vs "Actor B" threads

Although Chris Rock has a much longer resume than Chris "I only do Rush Hour Movies" Tucker, I'd go with Tucker in both categories. His roles in "Friday", "Money Talks" "Dead Presidents (his best acting role) and even his small role in "Jackie Brown" are superior to anything Rock has done.



As an actor Tucker kills Rock.

But Rock kills Tucker as a comedian.

[L.Kizzle]

As an actor Tucker kills Rock.

But Rock kills Tucker as a comedian.
I like Tucker, but Tucker is not a great actor. Tucker's roles, he plays himself. Loud, fast talking, just like his stand up.

I mean, Rock is not a great actor but he takes on different roles. A crackhead, a rapper, a white guy, ect.

Only role Tucker played out of character was in Fifth Element.
