Adam Sandler vs. Will Ferrell

Filed under: Uncategorized — ltimbs @ 9:23 p04

When I think of comedy, these two names are the first that pop into my head.  I am a huge fan of both of their work.  Adam Sandler and Will Farrell are both incredibly hilarious.  How can we know for sure who the King of Comedy really is?

I have to be honest and say that I haven’t seen all of neither Sandler’s or Ferrell’s film, but I have seen many of them.  I have seen enough to have developed and opinion on who makes me laugh more.  I personally feel like Will Ferrell is funnier.  He is just so natural and good at what he does.  I’m not saying that Adam Sandler is not, but his style just does not seem as natural as Ferrell’s.  With that said, I prefer to watch most of Adam Sandler’s films over Will Ferrell’s films.  Sandler’s films are just so classic.  I hate to say it, but most of Ferrell’s films have stupid plots.

I love watching Sandler’s movies such as Billy Madison, Big Daddy, Click, Waterboy, and The Longest Yard.  I also enjoy Ferrell’s Anchorman, Elf, and Old School.  I’ve just realized that most of his films alone aren’t as strong as Sandler’s.  Putting the movies aside and just based on the actors’ personal performances, I feel that Ferrell is the King.  He makes his job look so effortless.  Sometimes I think that he wouldn’t even have to speak to make people laugh.  I think that he is the crowd favorite.  At http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/7675709, Mike Miller gives you a breakdown of each Actor’s strengths and weakness.  You will also read about who he believes is the true King of Comedy.

  1. I actually like Adam Sandler is funnier. I loved him in 50 First Dates! I also have to say that his films are better and that I basically love all his co-stars. I think he rocks!

  2. I think Adam Sandler has the potential to be funnier. He has actual talent and is a good actor, most of his movies are great. Will Ferrell just acts stupid on camera. Anyone could do that. It’s not comedy, its stupidity. Adam Sandler is hands down better than Will Ferrell.

  3. I really like both of them. I love most of there movies and they both make me laugh. If I had to pick one I would have to say Adam Sandler because he has more of a range of movies and action. Sometimes with Ferrell it seems like the same movies but just a little different each time. Such as Semi-Pro and Blades of Glory. There both movies about sports and being funny. He needs to change it up a little.

  4. I have seen almost all of their films I think they are both great actors. I do agree that Farrell act stupid on camera, but it always makes me laugh. Sandler is a great actor, and he is also funny in front of the camera. I think Dane Cook should be an actor, I know he has been in a small role, but he is by far one of the funniest.

  5. What about Will Ferrell and the landlord? Is that funny? Or just acting stupid on camera?

  6. I love Will Ferrell. I think he can play many different roles so well, whereas Adam Sandler plays the same kind of character in all of his movies. I especially love Will Ferrell in SNL. And I think it’s perfectly fine to act stupid in front of a camera. Some people can just pull it off better than others.
