He is the Goat he took social commentary to a level all his predecessors couldnt and he never fell off.

all them other dudes did.

Is this solely based on his stand up? or do you think his tv shows and movies compete with the likes of Eddie, Martin, Chappelle, and others?

I would say Chappelle surpassed Rock as far as social commentary as well.
 
Adding in things other than standup is going to complicate things.

Is being a standup required as part of the criteria for even being in the discussion?

To me it's a requirement. Kind've like debating the best musicians of alltime and bringing up a nigga with no albums

Nah you know why because you couldnt just wash over Chris Rocks social commentary the way certain people (specifically others)do chappelle it was just funny to them. Chris Rock just smacked you in the face with it.
 
Jim Carey Leslie Nielsen and Chevy Chase while not stands ups have that type of quality where you could just look at them and laugh also their physical comedy

Eddie Griffin bottom 390

nah that spot belongs to mike epps whos only funny in small spurts. I remember I saw a show on Netflix a while back. the venue looked like hole in the wall after hours club. it was just a bunch of niggas at tables nobody wasn't paying any attention to him. he was telling recycled jokes from his other stand ups.

Yea Jim Carrey is a stand up comedian

He had some i never seen but he isnt known for it

His name is on the wall at the comedy store. Ive heard older standup say he was something special back in the day.

I was thinking of checking it but i was never really a Jim Carrey fan in the 1st place
