General Discussion / A Gripe about the Curly-Shemp Wars
« Last post by Paul Pain on April 06, 2024, 08:48:18 AM »I love seeing that so many people, even younger folks, still love the boys. Last Saturday, March 30, WOMAN HATERS completed filming 90 years ago, and almost one month from today is the 90th anniversary of the short's release.
It makes me sad, though, to go anywhere on the internet, whether social media or just websites in general, and see a person say they "only like Curly" or "only like Shemp" to the extent that they won't watch shorts with the other one in it. It's offensive to my sensibilities because...
These people are throwing Moe and Larry under the bus with a vengeance. If you cannot see that Shemp, in his own way, works with Moe and Larry just as well as their baby brother, then you don't really like The Three Stooges but just like one actor. Moe and Larry deserve better because they were amazing in their own ways. Shame on you folks .
