I saw this the other day by myself out of curiosity. I knew what it was going to be about. But I don't know....maybe I just wasn't in the mood for an onslaught of mostly unoriginal jokes about piss, semen, shit, incest and beastiality. All the reviews seemed to indicate that you were either going to be laughing, or gasping for air in between laughs. But I didn't notice myself gasping as much as I was yawning. A few random chuckles maybe. But nothing explosive. Anyone else see this?

I will admit seeing Bob Saget talk dirty was mildly surreal.

Bob's appearance on Entourage was a good time.

It was discussed a little in the Sara Silverman thread.

I finally watched this today. Funny movie, really nails down how important delivery and timing is in joke telling. Endless comedians do their take on this joke and I thought only a handful were really great. Sarah Silverman was hilarious. Martin Mull's variation was awesome as well. I have to admit that after awhile I got desensitized to the shit, puking murderous homo-erotic bestial incest jokes, until they brought race and religion into it. Then I was on the floor.

I was actually impressed. I really didnt expect much and saw some brilliant comedians discussing their craft. Great fun.

I watched some of this over a friend's house like a month ago and some of it was pretty funny (Gilbert Gottfried, Bob Saget). I've had it at home for like 2 weeks now from Netflix and I don't even know if I want to watch the rest of it. I feel like it'll be a waste of time.

Probably works better in a theater. Part of the fun is the shared experience of laughing at shit that is so wrong - and blinking at each other afterwards, baffled at the sick fucks that are around you.

It was decent. The part with Sarah Silverman was pretty good as was their questioning of Joe Franklin over the end credits.

I liked it, but it did get boring toward the end. I liked hearing the comics' deliveries and the variations on the joke.

I could've done without all the extraneous stuff and just listened to each comic tell their take on the joke, which you can do on the dvd. though andy dick's wasn't on there.

also, that puppeteer fucking sucks. it's bad when a mime is funnier than you.
