Chris Farley My Essay Is Going to Be About the Actor Chris Farley The Chris Farley My essay is going to be about the actor Chris Farley the actor and comedian. He starred in the movies Tommy Boy, Beverly Hills Ninja, Black Sheep, and ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ more. His parents are Tom and Mary Ann Farley, his siblings are John, Kevin, Tom Jr, and Barb Farley. As of December 18, 1997 he died of drug overdose at age 33. He was born on February 15, 1964. Chris is famous for being a comedian and being on SNL (Saturday Night Live); he also starred in the films in the above paragraph. In the movie Tommy ​ Boy, Chris starred as Tommy the son of a CEO of a ​ brake pad company that was starting to go out of business because Tommy’s dad died. It's up to Tommy to save the company by selling the products to big store people. In the movie Beverly Hills Ninja, ​ a baby is rescued by a clan of Ninja warriors and raised by them as one of their own. But Haru, the now grown man (Chris Farley), as he is called, never quite fits into the clan, nor does he make a worthy ninja. However, the good­natured Haru, in his own way, and with some help from Gobei, manages to prove himself to be a winner in the end. Also in the movie Black ​ Sheep, Washington State Governor Al Donnelly (Tim Matheson) whose only road ​ block on the road to power is his embarrassing little brother Mike (Chris). To keep him out of mischief, Al makes one of his friends, Steve Dodds (David Spade) keep an eye on him during the election. However, this is easier said than done... Chris Farley never really did anything, but make people laugh and smile whenever he was around. He also made some of the funniest movies and sketches that I have seen in a long time. However I do know one thing, that if Chris Farley is up in Heaven, even God is laughing. The influentiality of Chris is extensive. He was a funny comedian, and he influenced pop culture in his time. He also was an amazing writer for SNL; when he was alive and he also starred on SNL. He had his own show, and he had lots of guests, so the bottom line is that he was very influential So in short, Chris was a person who played in movies, SNL, and had his own show. It was so sad that he died to such a poor caus. He was a funny comedian and he is still sorely missed. Then in 2015 his friends and family, after he died, made a documentary about him called I Am Chris Farley. ​ ​.

  • 275. – Part One
    275. – PART ONE 275. Clifford (1994) Okay, here’s the deal: I don’t know you, you don’t know me, but if you are anywhere near a television right now I need you to stop whatever it is that you’re doing and go watch “Clifford” on HBO Max. This is another film that has a 10% score on Rotten Tomatoes which just leads me to believe that all of the critics who were popular in the nineties didn’t have a single shred of humor in any of their non-existent funny bones. I loved this movie when I was seven, and I love it even more when I’m thirty-three. It’s genius. Martin Short (who at the time was forty-four) plays a ten-year-old hyperactive nightmare child from hell. I mean it, this kid might actually be the devil. He is straight up evil, conniving, manipulative and all-told probably causes no less than ten million dollars-worth of property damage. And, again, the plot is so simple – he just wants to go to Dinosaur World. There are so many comedy films with such complicated plots and motivations for their characters, but the simplistic genius of “Clifford” is just this – all this kid wants on the entire planet is to go to Dinosaur World. That’s it. The movie starts with him and his parents on an plane to Hawaii for a business trip, and Clifford knows that Dinosaur Land is in Los Angeles, therefore he causes so much of a ruckus that the plane has to make an emergency landing.

Elon Musk’s company came within 17 minutes Wednesday of launching a pair of NASA astro- nauts for the first time in nearly a decade from the U.S., before the threat of lightning forced a delay.
