His first standup film, Delirious, remains the funniest I have ever seen.
Raw was okay, but that debut was sensational.
The bit about the 'house burger' ( I think it's in Raw) where his mum says she can make burgers better than McDonald's is one of the funniest things I've ever seen. I watch it all the time. Never gets old.
I also love the scenes in The Nutty Professor with the whole family at the dinner table. Absolutely hilarious.
The "cook-out" (BBQ) from Delirious.
That entire sequence, when he plays his drunk dad, the brontosaurus burgers, Aunt Bunny, etc .. same effect on me.
Twenty minutes of absolute genius.
