Me and a date snuck a bottle of wine into "The Aristocrats" last night, I don't know if it was the wine but that shit is pee in your pants funny. I hella wanted to see "40 Yr Old Virgin" though. :/
right on... the aristocrats just won the afternoon matinee coin-toss v. 40 yr. old virgin. looking forward to both...
aptow did amazing work with both freaks and geeks and undeclared so i expect great things from the film. If memory serves, Del and Fu Shnicks were playing on the primiere episode of Undeclared... bizarre for a Fox sitcom, no doubt.
Steve Carrell owns the nerd look.
what'd u think about the aristocrats?
Just saw this today, 2 thumbs up. Extra points for having the dude who played MC Hammer in that VH1 movie in the film.
damn, that's
mixed feelings overall... but it was fun... Saget and Sarah Silverman stole the show for me, but that's nothing new.
... then his eye popped out... which he viewed as an opportunity...

ps does it have anything to do with the movie? i haven't seen it yet.
i like how your avatar looks up at my avatar like "wtf is wrong with him for linking that shit"
The whole movie is this joke being told in a bunch of different ways by diff comedians.....if that's what your asking. Not sure where that South Park promo could be played. Was it actually on TV but bleeped?
Yea, the idea is that this is an old joke that comedians tell eachother, but wouldn't ever really do on stage. The idea being improv. The only required lines are "Family walks into a talent agent............the Aristocrates" Everything in between is made up and the nastier the better.
Side note, it's funny a lot of people didn't know that Saget did some pretty dirty stand up before he got the Full House gig. Even now he' still pretty dirty with his solo stuff.
i've been trying for ages to track down his dirty stand up. i think he put that stuff to rest once he joined full house, but once that gig was over, he started stand up again, and for two minutes he said every sexual/curse word u heard in your life as his intro. i got to hear that stuff.
The first 45 minutes are brillant then it becomes a slow spiral down, deevolving into a fuckin' yuppie date love story.
Loved the superhero doll references though.
From a recent Village Voice/Michael Musto column:
>>Finally, I spoke to BOB SAGET, who's corrosively funny in the film, a far shriek from the Saran-wrapped Ken doll he's played on TV. "People won't want to see me pick up the kids on Full House reruns anymore, will they?" he smirked. After some banter about how Saget supposedly shits every 15 minutes and how Warhol would have loved him, we got down to business: Fisting versus felching, please? "If you're able to do both," he obliged, "if you can reach into a man's ass and take out the felch material, then you're like a monkey in a zoo that throws things at people. It's all wrong!" Yeah, but has he ever felched the
OLSEN TWINS? He looked stricken. "I will not use curse words in the same paragraph with their names," Saget said, respectfully. Depressed, I went home and fucked my goldfish.
this has been saget's schtick since that show ended. it's not particularly shocking after 10+ years. it's just sad.
I just learned about this joke when I found out about the movie. I love the whole idea of just trying your damndest to cross every line possible. Pretty interesting how this joke has supposedly been around since Vaudeville. Phyllis Diller passed out when she first heard it, and it's that Gilbert Godfreid did this joke as he was starting to bomb at the Hugh Hefner roast.
Here's a site that is a database of variations of the joke, all rated:

I've actually caught Saget's stand up and it is incredibly dirty and hysterical. For a while he was playing every now and then at the Comedy store in LA, he might still be there.
haha yeah, also noticed the Fear Of A Black Planet shirt.
it will be hard to top Wedding Crashers for me, that shit is funny as hell
HA! I guess she's not credited as "the girl with big tits at Speed Dating session" then.
I liked this film, but somehow enjoyed "Wedding Crashers" more.
