I remember not being that impressed with Martin's stand up specials. Even though while I was in middle school through high school, I thought he was the funniest comedian alive. His Def Comedy Jam hosting and his show was wayy funnier than his actual stand up. "You so crazy"had a few moments but "RUN Tell Dat" was cheeks. I think there was an HBO special he had before he really blew up that was hilarious though.

The truth is Martin strengths in standup were crowd interaction and his energy and delivery. His actually material was funny at times, I personally found his bit on The Fly and the Road Trip to MD hilarious, but a lot of his material was just shock value and re-wording Eddie and Richard's old material.

Take away the crowd interaction and the energy and you got Martin now.

IMO Martin should be home and on vacation enjoying his money. Not doing a damn standup tour.

:francis:I'm sorry but Martin's best standup of all type was You So Crazy. I tried running "Run Tell Dat" and now these clips, but it just feels like dude fully transitioned to the movie set, and let go of the stand up steez. No issues at all about it, Eddie Murphy is the same way with going to the set and not falling back into the grind of stand up.

Some comedians are born actors, while others are going to be stuck on the stage like Gred Giraldo, who couldn't grasp that his passion is standup and not so much television and movies.

It is what it is. But sadly this is not it :flabbynsick:

“That’s when I knew I was gonna be an actor”

- he’s used this many times. Albeit, this time, he goes into more “details”. He is always gon be funny. That’s a gift his maker endowed him with. No real effort needed.

Honestly, I didn't even think You So Crazy was funny, RunTelDat was terrible.

I never really thought Martin was a good stand up comedian, Martin is much funnier on screen. His physical comedy was great on tv. KATT had much better physical comedy on stage.

Katt was my favorite standup for a minute. But his last few have been meh at best.

Going this weekend to see that nikka Ali Saddiq on Saturday. HIs youtubes snippets are pretty good.
