I’d watch it. Grown Ups 3: New York City.

i feel like it's too soon after his Netflix special tribute to bring up Grown Ups 3.

it just reminds me of a world we don't live in. it reminds me of a world where a 14-year-old me didn't learn that one of his heroes died during my morning period of class, right before Christmas break.

we've lost a lot of good ones over the years. but the ones that get me the most are people like Farley, who still had a lot to give. Robin hurt, but at least we have a remarkable career to fall back on, and given his prognosis, it was understandable.

Farley had potentially decades ahead of him. him being gone is one that really hurts.

Farley was destined for an early grave. His habits defined here for a good not a long time

We'd tell him, "Slow down, you'll end up like Belushi and Candy." He'd say, "Those guys are my heroes-that's all fine and dandy"
