We all miss funny comedians like John Candy, Bernie Mac, John Belushi, Gilda Radner, Sam Kilsen and many...many more. One of them happens to be a funny that died young but lived his life and his name was Chris Farley.
He would always crack jokes, and when he was SNL, he was hilarious. Made friends with Phil Hartman, Adam Sandler, and definitely David Spade who he made some movies with after leaving SNL. But his life wouldn't last.
One of his memorable skits was with the late Patrick Swayze. They were Chipndale dancers trying out. The skit made me laugh so hard. I bet they're now doing this skit in heaven.
His movie career wasn't huge, but it was memorable.
One of them being the Wayne's world franchise. Never seeing either, he portrayed a security guard in one and a guy named Milton in the other.
Never seen the movie Tommy Boy, but it was considered a buddy-buddy movie that he starred with his pal David Spade. I guess Chris Farley's character is named Tommy. It was an ok movie, but it wouldn't be the only movie and David Spade would be in together.
In the movie Coneheads, based on an SNL skit, he falls in love with the daughter of a family that have all cones on their head. They really are aliens. David Spade stared in this as well, but he was in a minor roll as well as Chris.
Another movie he starred in was called Black Sheep. Chris' character played the black sheep in a family that running for congress in the state of Oregon. He does everything he can to help his brother (played by Tim Matherson) get to winning, even if it means humiliating him as well. It was a good movie
One of his final movies, well it wasn't great, but it was ok. He portrays a white ninja that lives in Beverly Hills. I don't really remember much of the premise, all I could remember is Chris Rock acting like an idiot most of the time.
He even starred in a skit on All That, but it was the last time he would be seen on the small screen.
At the age of 33, Chris Farley overdosed, and passed away. He may be gone, but his legacy is strong.
He even has brothers that still remember his comedic genius. There is a biography of his life that his brother, Kevin, made in honor of his fallen brother. Chris had another brother named John, and both starred in movies with him. They usually would end up behind the scenes or having minor rolls.
He was a sweet man, and believe me, we all miss him. When Adam Sandler came back to SNL, He sung a tribute song in honor of his best friend. And what I think was, it was heartwarming, and I even cried.
WE MISS U CHRIS 23 years gone, and it still hurts. We love u.
