I finally saw "The Aristocrats" last night
There were a few moments when I was laughing so hard I had to stop to catch my breath. The the extra jokes feature was almost better than the movie.
What was your take on the movie?

2. I loved it!
Not for everyone-- can't see my mom enjoying it, as she's always saying, "Why do those stand-ups have to say 'fuck" constantly?"-- and this makes most of those stand-up routines look tame!

But it was beyond hilarious-- and so great to see how each comedian put his or her own spin on it, all depending on what sludge they could dredge out of their particular psyche.

5. I'm not a huge Sarah Silverman fan, but her bit in that was
laugh-out-loud-til-you-run-out-of-breath funny :P

6. Same here - not a fan, but LOVED her bit
delivered with a COMPLETELY straight face (and funnier once the movie had clued you in as to who the agent was)

7. Why would you watch a Disney movie?
Edited on Thu Oct-05-06 11:21 AM by Benfea
Disney is fucking evil and they support the neocon agenda in a very big way. Shame on you for giving them eyeball time.

Edit: Oh wait. You're not talking about the stupid cat cartoon but the one about the dirty joke? My bad.

9. I agree, it was horrible
I heard it was the funniest movie ever, then I put the DVD in and discovered the truth.

My wife and I got about 10 minutes into it and just looked at each other wondering what the hell about this was supposed to be funny.
We fast forwarded a few times to see if it was consistantly bad throughout the whole movie, a few minutes later the credits started and I was done with it.
