The Great Outdoors is still one of my favs.

His run from 1980 to 1993 was great. So many classics. Maybe not all award-winning but good to great movies that you remember his characters.

It freaks me out that he’s been gone so long and that many people don’t know who he was.

Wish he would've included some Canadian Bacon material

My top JC movies. I make a point to watch movies I grew up on with my boys. They love Spaceballs and Ghostbusters.

Just watched The Great Outdoors today with the kids. I remember going to the movie theater and seeing it as a kid. Can't believe it's been 25 years. Thanks for the laughs Mr Candy.

Summer Rental had a pretty good scene with the female neighbor that just had breast implants:
Neighbor: Can I ask your honest opinion?
Candy: Sure
Neighbor removes her bikini top: How do these look to you?
Candy: Umm...Similar?

Candy was great but Chris Farley is tGOAT
LOL no. The opposite, by many miles.

Farley is nothing more than a bad carbon copy of Candy.
Thats one of the dumbest things ever posted on here. Besides being large men there wasnt a lot of similarity in their styles of comedy. I would be hard pressed to pick a better of the two. Both were comedic geniuses in their own right.

Anvil, maybe if you read that was a response to someone saying Farley was the GOAT you would understand.
Let’s not trade dumb posts... seriously, Learn to read in context. Go have an orange whip, son.

Candy was an excellent actor, Farley was not much of an actor at all. He pretty much had two speeds, awe shucks man child and crazed manimal. Candy was subtle and diverse with a wide range
Both gone but not forgotten

Candy is the GOAT
Probably the most beloved deceased actor of all time. No doubt on TD. He is always mentioned here
