Chris Farley’s younger brothers Kevin and John are making a movie.
"Hollywood and Wine" [Ugh... -Ed.] is about a Hollywood chef and an aspiring actress who embark on a get-rich quick scheme that results in mistaken identify and a run-in with the mob.
Actors Kevin and John Farley, and John’s wife Jennifer Farley, collaborated with scribe Matt Berman on "Wine." Kevin Farley is co-directing the independently financed project with Berman.
Several former "SNL" cast members will appear alongside the brothers in the comedy, including Chris Kattan, David Spade, Norm MacDonald, Horatio Sanz and Chris Parnell. [AP]
I was a bigger Chris Farley fan than just about anyone, but I’ve compiled a list of reasons why this might not be such a good idea:
Jim Belushi
Frank Stallone
Stephen Baldwin
Daniel Baldwin
Billy Baldwin
Ron Gallagher
Jeb BushCasey Affleck
Jake Busey
Mookie Hartman
Chet Van Damme
Okay so I made those last two up but you get the picture.

Dor sho gha! You left Worf’s son, Alexander, off your list!!!!
You had me at Chris Kattan.
I find it disgusting that these guys have careers living off their dead brother. Did they eat his corpse to gain his power?
This movie gettting made is so embarassing that no one has anything to say.
What kind of wine do they serve in Hollywood? HASBEENet SUCKvignon? *snort snort*
You are correct Brimley. In fact, most movies that are getting made are embarassing. I cant even make fun of them, cause its like making fun of a retarded kid. They dont know, and its just sad
One thing’s for sure Fek. They’re not drinking Merlot.
God, I hate that fuckin movie.
I hereby solemnly vow, that if and when I have a son, I will name him Chet Van Damme
It was better when I mistakenly read it as:
Farley is co-directing the independently financed project with Batman
wow McCarthy, then this? Apparently I really can’t read.
That would be an awesome name jim
and yet, they keep doing it. and people go. people go… I just… how…
*brain implodes*
During filming, all of the Farley siblings will eschew the traditional trailers to prepare for their roles in A VAN, DOWN BY THE RIVER!
WHO THE FUCK STILL HAS RUN-INS WITH THE MOB?
John Farley looks a bit like Niklas Lidstrom. I don’t expect any of you fuckers to know who that is, I’m just saying.
Al, can you back me up here?
I hear ya Donkey, and I agree.
And I do like the way he’s looking at me, too.
Yeah Donk, ‘cept John’s got more of a "I wanna fuck you" look, where Nik’s look says, "I wanna fuck you up".
And why does Chris Parnell associate himself with this crap? He’s arguably the funniest non-lead in SNL history.
Yeah Donkey. I didn’t see it until you mentioned it, and I’m a pretty big hockey fan despite my geographical impairment.
GRRR . . . PARTIAL DENTURE SET!!!!
*because they’re all missing teef. you know what? fuck you guys.
God, I hate that fuckin movie.
Yeah, I thought I hated Giamatti before…
I more or less hated everything Paul Giamatti stood for until I saw HBO’s John Adams series.
Respect.
"Hollywood … aspiring actress … get-rich quick scheme … mistaken identify … run-in with the mob"
They have one of those machines from Orwell’s 1984 that pieces together boilerplate novels, don’t they?
Kevin should stick with Hertz commercials, and John should stick to, uh, whatever it is he does.
I just think this is a really good idea. I mean, it’s a weak plot, filled with the best SNL dregs you can dig up. That formula is golden, just look at
Wayne’s World 2 Stuart Saves His Family Deuce Bigalow Dirty Work The Ladies ManConeheads!Eib, that av always kills me.
Did I Durst it with my innappropriate feelings towards Eibs av?
Who here wouldn’t think it would be fucking hilarious to see David Spade in blackface?
Tim Meadows is David Spade in blackface.
Four out of five times, I would accidentally call Tim Meadows "Don Cheadle."
This storyline sort of makes the manatees in a ball tank theory seem legit.
The fifth time, I would accidentally call him "Bus Boy."
New post. Wiff Ratner! I know, depressing.
At some point during the early 1990s, Gallagher’s younger brother Ron Gallagher asked Gallagher for permission to perform shows using Gallagher’s old routines, and also using Gallagher’s trademark Sledge-O-Matic routine. The idea was that Ron Gallagher, who was unemployed, would tour the country working small venues that couldn’t afford a show put on by Gallagher himself. Since Ron bears a strong familial resemblance to his older brother, the show would be almost like having a real Gallagher show.
Gallagher granted his blessing to his younger brother on the condition that Ron and his manager would make it clear in their promotional materials that it was Ron Gallagher, not Gallagher himself, that was putting on the show.
After a few years of complying with Gallagher’s conditions, Ron began blurring the line between his act and that of his brother. He would often promote his act as “Gallagher Too,” a moniker Gallagher felt was insufficiently informative. In some instances, Ron’s act was promoted in a way that provided no clue to prospective attendees that they were seeing someone other than Gallagher himself.
Gallagher initially attempted to get his brother to stop these activities by requesting that he stop using Gallagher’s well-known Sledge-O-Matic routine. These efforts proved futile, and Ron kept touring as “Gallagher Too” while using the Sledge-O-Matic routine his older brother had made famous. Consequently, in August 2000, Gallagher sued his brother for trademark violations and false advertising. The courts ultimately sided with Leo Gallagher, and an injunction was granted prohibiting Ron from performing any act that impersonates his brother in small clubs and venues.
During the lawsuit, all of Gallagher’s immediate family sided with Ron over the controversy. As a consequence, Gallagher is now estranged from his parents and siblings.
Doesn’t that bring a tear to your eye?
Is Horatio Sanz a man or a woman?
BTK-Farley’s bra was the balls in 2gether.
WTF was that ^ all about??
I think Gallagher should be the villain in a Black Superhero movie.
Jake Busey is not Gary Busey’s brother, he is his son.
Unless he impregnated his own mother, at which point he would be both his son AND his brother.
Now that I thik about it, it is likely that actually occurred and I now stand corrected. Carry on.
SuckMeBeautiful is right – you can’t bash the Farley from 2gether. He also had a small part in Love Stinks which is the best movie ever made besides maybe Deep Blue Sea.
The other one is fair game based solely on his eyes.
I still rock out to Pegasus.
I think Sean Penn is really riding the crest of Chris’ death.
Fuckin dick!
