Anna Faris was in the Scream horror parodies. I think she looks clueless and gets hit on the head a lot.

Yea, loved him. Also, the Our Gang comedy. It used to be in re-runs everywhere and now I can’t remember the last time I saw them on TV. I would also add Don Knotts. Loved him.

Ted Kennedy, but Max Baucus is showing some serious potential.

Ana Feris is funny! She was in “Just Friends” and was hillarious as a Britney Spears like pop tart.

Dittoes on Soupy.

When he died just last October, hundreds of FReepers recalled his comedic brilliance.

“It’s twue...It’s twue!”

They start by reciting Byron and Shelly, then jump on my belly and bust my balloons. I’m tired.

I’m not a wabbit.

She is a hoot on camera, and obviously pretty easy on the eyes

Chris Farley could take a fall -- and once collapsed a non-collapsible table on SNL in one bit -- but he's hardly in a category of The Three Stooges or Buster Keaton. He just wasn't that physical, he (literally) couldn't move that much.

Lucielle Ball and John Ritter was good at physical comedy, although Ritter was a long way off from Ball's ability.

Johnny Depp? I guess they’re talking about movies I’ve not seen.

I agree about Depp.

But scroll up. Some FReepers thing he deserves it based on Benny and Joon.

I guess I’ll put that one on my “Movies I gotta see someday” list.

Buster Keaton should be #1

What about Harold Lloyd? He should be on the list.
