OT- The Aristocrats

[crimgoddess]

"So a guy walks into a talent agent's officeand says 'Boy, have I got the act for you' ".


For those who aren't easily offended, I would highly recommend a little documentary called "The Aristocrats". It's basically a joke that most comedians know, but few actually ever perform, the main purpose being to draw it out and make it as offensive as possible. Some people use vomit in the way they tell the joke, but it's just words, no visuals.


I honestly laughed so hard I nearly wet the couch. Bob Saget is probably one of the dirtiest people alive- and I LOVE IT. One of the female comedians mentioned that one year for Hannukah he gave her a box of slim fit tampons to display in her window so guys wouldn't think she was easy. LOL- who does that?


The funniest, must see part of the movie is Gilbert Gottfried telling the joke at a televised roast for Hugh Hefner, right after 9/11. Apparently right before he told a joke that had a reference to 9/11, and was booed, people yelling 'too soon'. So, his reaction was "well, if you were offended by that, wait until you here THIS!". The fact that his voice is so god-awful annoying just made it even better.


So.....if you are in need of a laugh, this definitely gets the patented Amber seal of approval. A must see as far as I'm concerned.

Ontariogirl- It's at Blockbuster (yes, the evil corporate giant). Definitely head out and get it if you can!!


For others who are curious, here is a snippet from one of the reviews:


Readerslooking for a recommendation to see The Aristocrats deserve fair warning. This movie is not for thosewho react squeamishly to long strings of obscenity, who are uncomfortably sensitive to verbally graphic scatological and pornographic humor, and who may not want to watch some well-known actors and comedians talk with potty mouths for the length of an hour-and-a-half. Even if you arenot put off by such vulgarity, you probably shouldn't take your motherto see this film --if she finds you laughing throughout it, she might not know what to think of you anymore. (Unless, of course, she's fine with what's going onandstarts laughing too.) Butfor anyone who can take it, this is one of the smartest and funniest movies of this year.


SWEEEET
