Why is schumer seemingly untouchable when it comes to stealing?

56  2017-03-26 by [deleted]

No one, amongst comedians at least, calls her out and everyone defends her. On the most recent legion of skanks Dave Smith made a joke about her stealing and they all just groaned and acted like he insulted a king pin. It's pathetic. Mencia was huge at the time rogan called him out and people still said something, so I don't think it's her popularity. She can't be that big of a gatekeeper in the industry, so why does everyone kiss her ass? Especially now with bits from attell and chappelle you'd think that would be crossing the line, but she still gets away with it. What is it?

because her uncle is a senator.

Unlike mencia she's actually friends with/well liked by a lot of comics, believe it or not... And if you have a friend in that high of a place (sadly she is one of if not the biggest name in comedy right now) you'd be a fool to try and tear them down and close the door on them ever doing anything to help your career

biggest

Can't disaglee with that.

John Pinette dying moved her to number one.

It's not just that, she's made now.

It's been decided that she will be successful.

Thats why i miss patrice o neil

If what Rogan said is true, Mencia was stealing jokes from open micers and shit. Schumer is stealing jokes that cellar legends said 15 years ago.

He stole jokes from Bobby Lee and Ari Shaffir.

He stole jokes from established comics as well (George Lopez and Bill Cosby most famously). But Rogan also said Mencia would sit in the back of the club on open mic night with a pen and paper and nobody could do anything about it. That's the real reason they were so eager to fuck him over.

Eeeeseee why u tryin to keep a beaaaner down

Which is why it's so baffling. At least Mencia was discrete

Cawksuka

Because everyone thinks they can ride her coattails

Sober up and then rewrite this post.

Haha, yikes

haha Ian, you so sirry.

rewrite this post.

He doesn't have to rewrite shit, just delete everything after the first sentence.

I almost gave the retard his first upvote in 6 months. I knew he was going to ruin it before I scrolled lower down.

You ruined it by being a fake ass SOSITCH, boy

Oh you're doing the...thing. How's that working out for you.

what a gay

I'll give you one (((hint)))

If it's not Hollywood Jewish nepotism then I don't know what it is. I remember when she rose to fame it all seemed very artificial. She was forced on us. It looked like every media outlet colluded to propel her into household name status.

Burning bridges with a powerful Jew in the entertainment business is basically career suicide

Mencia would strong arm people, Amy on the other hand probably acts nice to all of the other comics. It is odd though, why she hasn't been taken to task over this and makes Rogan and the rest of the comics seem like hypocrite pussies.

Mencia also stole jokes word for word so he had no wiggle room for denial. Schumer is closer to Dane Cook where she makes a minor change to the joke so she can claim they just had similar ideas.

And Cook's career ended more because he was a flash in the pan for 3 or 4 years more than the Louis CK stuff. Most people didn't even know about that until his career was pretty much over and CK got popular around the same time.

As for why they don't call her on it, it's because she uses feminism as a shield. Bash her and you must be alt right. Mencia could have played the race card, but it wouldn't work because his whole act was bashing political correctness.

Even the Dane cook comparisons aggravate me. He definitely stole jokes but also had a lot of original material and some semblance of a good delivery. Amy literally steals the majority of her material and even butchers that, cause her delivery is so fucking terrible

He certainly has better delivery and stage presence, but his original stuff was hack shit just like Amy. Annoying girls at clubs, the SuFi, bad arguments with your girlfriend. He didn't have talent beyond his energy and being a good promoter.

How is yelling the punchlines at the audience better delivery?

she fat arms people

Jews stick together and she's at the top of the kike foodchain.

She's not even close. Don't you realize (((they))) control the financial industry?

Redpill for you my brother

You are the first person here to express this thought

Boo hoo faggot

You're mad fag

She just runs off and cries to her Jew uncle

"...and then they called me piggy!"

"Aw, Don't worry sweetie, soon we'll take away their guns and enslave them for all eternity."

It's so funny, now that information spreads like wildfire about every corrupt thing governements around the world participate in, now they want to take away rights and guns. "Oh no, they know too much....we thought they would never notice how phoney this shit has been since the industrial revolution...."

you mean her uncle that she stated in the past she never had contact with until she got famous and they can use each other for power?

Mofo must be od..ing on red pills lmao

She shares the same agency as Jim Norton, Marc Maron and a bunch of other comics. Probably a few publicists in common too.

I thought it's because the majority of those bits seem more hack than stolen.

Mainly because they don't want to have their careers fucked with.

On the first episode of his new show Kevin Brennan said that after Tammy Pescatelli came out with the first accusations of Big Amy's joke thievery her agent and manager fired her.

So after hearing that most comedians not dared accuse Piggy lest suffer in their own careers.

Was Tammy ever back on O&J or Bennington after that?

She still goes on Bennington

her agent and manager fired her.

You mean quit? I'm pretty sure the talent hires the agent/manager and pays them for the service they provide. Not the other way around.

I fired my last boss because he didn't like me being late.

They can leave you. Especially if you're a no name anyway like Tammy.

me and big fat amy got an understanding, ok? we both know some unsavoury facts about the world and while she believes she's capitalizing on it, I am the one who knows what's really at stake. ok? Ok big fat stupid disgusting ugly amy? Ok hun?

(((not sure)))

Oh, so that's what that means. I've been pletending to get it for rike a year.

πŸ˜ŽπŸ•΄πŸ•ΊπŸ’ƒπŸ‘―πŸ‹πŸ‘»

your chinaman gimmick is starting to wear thin

Starting to?

Started thin

I stir rike it

You used an "L" you piece of shit.

She's a cunt.

Louis Gomez made a joke about it at Rons Live Street Jokes and it got a laugh. I think it's because she's a female and most comics (Jim) are surprised she made it so big and want a career boost from her.

The Puerto Rican Opie

Well she has always been really good to fellow comedians from the new York "club scene".

But it's really because she is using hacky bits. And you can't really steal hack shit. Everyone comes up with it because it's hack.

But they can't say that either because she's always been good to them. Lots of hacks aren't good to them.

She's more of a hack than she is a thief. But that's still not a very nice thing to say so they stay quiet.

Say hack again. I dare you. I double dare you motherfucker. Say hack one more Goddamned time!

"Let me ask you a question artie, what does the word hack mean to you?"

Anyone remember when shuli said that to opie? It was in response to artie calling the killers of comedy the hack pack. Shuli was almost crying.

Funniest thing shuli has ever done in his entire career

Who in fuck is shuli

Good.

He was a caller from Ohio

I can answer the untouchable bit

It was a rather involved, roundabout set-up, but you got it. And subtlely, to boot. Impressive.

I think we'll see more turning on her now that she will be less likely to help them. They're only this nice hoping she'll throw them a bone and put them in her latest movie or show. The second she stops having anything to offer people will be less afraid of her. Losing Barbie is the first step. Once Snatched crashes and burns at the box office she'll be done.

What really sucks is that even after 99% of everyone else turns on her, Jimmy still won't because he's loyal to a fault. He'll never say a negative thing about her no matter what. And not because he's a "worm". He's no different from Bill Burr the Monday after Carlin released his last special, which was a massive drop-off after everything else he did before. Look up the show if you can find it, he was the same way. The "soldiers" have to go to bat for each other.

They want a spot in her last movie?

The main reasons she is left alone; 1: she's braver than a dozen fireman or 50 war vets. 2: she has something (incase she hasn't told you) call 'uh vaagina'

All her security have guns.

comics likely don't want the trouble, and she's likely nice to many comics and help them out.

Also like what freeway rick ross said about rapper rick ross, It's hard to stop them if they want to push you.

A pussypass at it's finest

Dave Smith made a joke?

You didn't hear it from me, but she's part of a small cabal of select people who control the entire entertainment industry.

The Irish?

I fucking knew it...

Dont forget us foreign policy

Let me tell you about the jews...

It's all about being an ugly hog with a vagina in the age of the vagina-grievance-industrial-complex and throwing paid work to people who typically make $40 for a stand up set.

White woman from NYC who is related to Democrat political blue bloods?

I have no idea.

Half white

just look at her last name it says it all

Because she handed Metzger a writing gig, and even pros were like "damn, that could be any of us."

Trainwreck sweetened the pot. She did the smart thing of putting Colin and Attell (I heard they had cameos, still never watched it) in the movie. She aligns and shields herself with some actual names within comedian circles so she can present false credibility despite the fact that she was an 8 year comic that got thrown into sold out arenas and "blockbuster" (shitty lib agenda movies with boring humor and shiny characters. Just as bad as shitty, valueless, and never worth revisting comic book money grabs) movies.

Amy actually was pretty good when she first appeared on O and A and had a club act. Then she pressed the "tell my cousin to make some moves" button, and now she's a stressed out liberal loser that ate her stress away with an inability (doing too much at once) to create worthwhile material. Hell, I never saw a single episode, but her show was getting great genuine reviews from people I read and listen to consistently. By the final season, most review articles read like a Libtard Anarchist Cookbook, with no sort of criticism at all and childish jabs at us "blind losers" who refuse to call her Goddess.

Fuck Amy Schumer and her political fag cousin. Her fame was definitely bought and paid for, and I love seeing it backfire into her cake cheeks. She pressed the "fame" button too soon. Good.

I don't think Chuck Schumer has much influence in Hollywood - I think it's the other way around, he latched onto HER to push his anti-gun campaign.

The one person we can blame for Amy is Judd Apatow. He made Trainwreck happen. If not for that, she would not be where she is now. Judd was setting himself up to be a starmaker, first pushing Lena Dunham on everyone, now Amy. That launched them both into circles with people like Amy Pascal, who single handedly almost destroyed Sony Pictures with the Ghostbusters debacle and the failure of the Spiderman franchise - and who was behind the Barbie picture.

People don't give her shit, you're right, because their paychecks are at risk. A LOT of shit goes untalked about in Hollywood, because of that - it works in sports, it works in music, and it works in movies - keep your mouth shut if you want to keep your job.

We'll see what happens, now that her show tanked, her special tanked, and Snatched will tank. People's careers in Hollywood end fast. Amy is becoming known more for being hated than her work. She's not at Dunham levels of hatred yet, but she's on her way. Dunham is another one who will fade away fast, unless her fat ass is hired onto a movie or TV show soon...but who's gonna hire her? Judd Apatow - bet on it.

Amy was never "pretty good". She was just a chick with a foul mouth. Her best material, like at the roasts, were written for you. She was a borderline hole when she was on O&A. When she was on Rogan, she literally had nothing to say. She has no acting abilities, she never put in the work to be funny. Her special would be the same for any fat woman her age if you put her on a stage. For all the money she's making, she couldn't hire better writers? Hell, Chris Rock has writers who help him develop his specials, he admits it - the part that makes me watch is how Chris does the material, because he's really good at it. Even Carlin had to take his material on the road to develop it - watching the first ten minutes of Amy's special, she wrote it all down once, and never practiced it.

If she'd earned her accolades, that's one thing - but she hasn't, and that's why her fall is satisfying.

untouchable?? she just lost out on a barbie movie, her new special has shit rating... that's as bad as it gets when you were at her previous height of celebrity status hanging out with jennifer lawrence rising to the top.

Because comedians wait for opinions to become safe and jump on bandwagons. Cosby has been raping since the 70s and everyone in show business knew it, but Apatow and Patton Oswalt didn't start their faux outrage until everyone in America was against him

Anybody got a link to the legion of skanks episode?

I remember reading an interview with Colin where he talked about the Mencia ordeal. Ari Shaffir accused Carlos of stealing his joke about illegal immigrants building a border wall and Colin said he was doing the same joke in New York and had no idea about either of them doing the bit.

Rogan claimed Carlos stole "licking an asshole is like licking a battery" from Rev. Bob Levy, now I just heard that joke in Norton's latest special.

Bottom line: A lot of these theft accusations are a bit of a stretch and/or just unoriginal jokes.
