Bob Hope...how can one truly describe Bob Hope. He was a hilarious man. He made so many funny movies that I cannot count them, that is without really thinking. His style of humor is very history based. If you don't know what was going on when he said something, then you won't understand the joke. This means that it takes intelligence to find him funny. I feel that he is one of the best comedians ever.
He never won an Academy Award. That, in fact, was one of his biggest jokes. He used to pretend all the time that he was doing something only to win an Academy Award. He should have. He is without a doubt, one of the funniest men who ever lived!
