Bill Hicks, Comedy Special
Honestly, I do not remember this guy being funny at all. This is one you can skip in my opinion. I do not even remember what kind of humor he does. I think it is crass.
I fell asleep watching this and turned it off. I didn’t like this one at all.
Apparently someone likes Bill Hicks.
I give this one a 2/5 because I know someone who likes this.
The Aristocrats, 2005
The Aristocrats is an entire film exploring a single joke. It is a joke no one ever tells, but when they do it is a competition to see who can make the most insane, dirty version.
This film interviews comedians about their experiences with this particular joke. It is the world’s dirtiest joke, The Aristocrats.
This is a rather interesting film all centered around a single joke. A joke all comedians seem to know and few are willing to tell. At least not in polite company.
I give this one a 4/5 for its informative value more than the joke itself.

Eddie Izzard, Dress to Kill, 1998
Eddie Izzard might be a transvestite, but he is an executive transvestite.
Eddie Izzard is hilarious. Laugh until you cry funny. Even the bits in French are roll on the floor funny. Eddie makes everything flow together and circles around with his comedy. He sets up a laugh for a while before he drops the punch line.
His clothing adds to the humor, but is not funny unto itself. Eddie can tell a story and draw you in. Eddie can make fun of the audience and not be cruel.
Check out this comedy special because it is so incredibly funny.
I give this one 5/5.
