From the start of the decade right up into the 1940s we had the best comedy in the world! Groucho, Harpo, and Chip Marx! The Three Stooges! Abbott and Costello! Laurel and Hardy! Charlie Chaplin!
Now we have...Will Ferrell, who's just a worse version of Jim Carrey, who's just a mor obnoxious version of Robin Williams, who's funny but is a horrible movie actor in all films he's not playing a great glue genie!
@obiwanobiwan13 Hang about! Laurel and Hardy were half British...(Stan Laurel born in Ulverston, Lancashire).. and Sir Charles Chaplin was 100% British if you don't count the fact that his granny's mummy had gypsy blood... ( Charlie Chaplin born East Street, Walworth, London -1889).
@rz625 no the British ain't to dumb to realize that, it's just funny how ignorant they are anyway lol. And what did the romans ever do for us? you're a retard if you think they did nothing, probably american
I know he meant "He ranks as high as any in Rome" in the second bit. But the Legion bit i don't know what he's meant to be saying. Can someone else understand what he says?
for those of you who don't get it. that joke is more than just a speech impediment. Wanking is another word for masturbation in the uk. So adding the speech impediment plus the actual word of wank just makes it funnier
@stacey24689, Comedy is comedy. No matter what nationality you are, you can always be as witty and irrevrent as good 'ol Monty Python. Even If you're an american.

He says 'this man commands a quack legion' right? That because he has a lisp or something and has trouble pronouncing the letter 'r' .
What he means is 'a crack legion', or really good legion of men
