Jackass: Number Two (full-blown open spoilers)

Ok, those aren’t funny. The CKY videos left a bad taste in my mouth when Brandon DiCamillo (IIRC) threw a drink on a fast food employee in the name of “humor” (I would’ve clocked his spoiled-brat ass.)

But CKY does not equal Jackass. It has little to no Johnny Knoxville and AFAIK MTV has nothing to do with it.

Yep, that looks like what I saw. That must’ve been it.

I couldn’t find so much as a list of Jackass pranks, though there’s probably one out there. Anyway, I already admitted I was probably wrong four hours ago.

Hey, look, you’re wrong too! It was very considerate of you to volunteer misinformation just so I wouldn’t feel so bad about my mistake. Thanks.

Let’s not forget the sketch on CKY where Bam IIRC wiped his ass with a 20 dollar bill and dropped it in front of an ATM machine.

I would classify that as crossing the line (duping others into touching your feces) but it was funny as hell (i was a bit ashamed for laughing at that). They also included the footage of them giving the guy some money for signing the release.
For the record, I love Jackass and thought the movie was absolutely hilarious. The sketch where they pulled the prank on Danger Ehren with the cab driver had me in stitches.

I don’t understand the vitriol some express toward Jackass. As long as they’re hurting themselves, what’s the problem? Besides, they actually show how terrible painful it is; Johnny Knoxville spent half of the first season in a cast for a broken ankle, and we got to see what Butterbean would do to a man. Ouch!

It would be hard to argue that humor always has to be highbrow. Hell, even ancient Greek comedies were filled with potty humor.

It did look fun! Minus the bleeding rectum. :stuck_out_tongue:

Well stainz and I went and saw this last night…

It was freaking hilarious!!!

I loved the first movie, but I think I enjoyed this one more.

Some of my favorites:

  • Love letter boxing glove
  • Air bag door bell
  • The gauntlet
  • The switcheroo

I was a little worried, earlier this year when I had my tonsilectomy I watched some earlier episodes and didn’t really laugh all that much. But I had seen most of the stunts many times and I was on some funky-meds!

BTW I’m:

  • 31 years old
  • A Senior Network Analyst at a multibillion dollar corporation
  • Scrabble fanatic
  • Fly fisherman

MtM

Yeah, I was probably the oldest person in the theatre (I’m 36) but I enjoyed a lot of the movie.

I saw the first “Jackass” movie when I was drunk, so I laughed my ass off but forgot most of it. :cool:

The scenes I couldn’t watch were:
anything to do with poo
Steve-O putting that fishhook through his cheek
the leech and the eyeball

That was about it.

(btw, McDeath forgot to mention that he was laughing so hard he almost threw up!) :slight_smile:

The thing is, you really don’t need an excuse to clock someone on Jackass. All you have to do is say, “Hey, Steve-O! Mind if I punch you in the face as hard as I can?” Odds are, he’ll be more than happy to let you do it.

Kinda takes the thrill out of imagined retributory beat downs.

Or he’ll suggest something more painful and creative.

“Why don’t you brain me with a frying pan instead? It’ll be funnier…and go ahead and kick me in the balls while you’re at it.”

“Full-blown open spoilers,” right? So what was the terrorist gag? I’m dying to know.

[spoiler]All the guys were in on it except Danger Ehren, and it was sort of a prank within a prank. Ehren thought the prank was that he would dress up like a terrorist complete with a belt of dynamite strapped under his clothes, get into a taxi cab, and ask to go to the airport (while dropping cheesey hints about his terrorist intentions.) The REAL prank was that the cab driver (played by Broken Lizard’s Jay Chandrasekhar?) would flip out, drive the cab into an alley, and pull the “terrorist” and camera man out at gun point. Ehren freaked out and the cabbie shoved him in the trunk, and the rest of the cast made it sound as if they came to his defense and were shot by the cabbie. Then the cabbie drove around a bit more and you can hear Ehren freaking out on his mic. Finally, they let him out and reveal the truth.

Oh, but that’s not all. They also reveal that the fake beard that was spirit-gummed to his face was actually a pile of pubic hair collected from all the other Jackass guys.[/spoiler]

:smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

Absolute genius. To the point where I kept silently wishing it would end because I was sure they’d never top the last bit and didn’t want it to end on a low note. Then there’d be another funnier, crazier prank. And another. The entire theatre was in stitches. I was in tears, and I rarely even like physical humour/ball to the groin frat boy humour.

How on earth are these guys still alive? I think we’re going to discover in a few years that Knoxville is an immortal/Jesus.

I just watched this last night. I couldn’t look at the leach/eyeball scene, and I don’t think that I’ve gagged so much in a month, much less an hour and a half.

When they first started with the terrorist prank, I was taken aback, but it ended up genius.

“There’s a card throwing machine!”

“Yep. That’s semen.”

I don’t find that sort of stuff amusing. What if he’d gotten an opening and killed the cabbie or gouged his eyes out? It’s not really that funny. I don’t want to pay to see grossout humor either. If they’re tricking people into drinking things or something that’s a serious bodily assault in my book.

The semen drinking wasn’t a trick. It was totally voluntary.

The cabbie was an actor, by the way. There were no civilians involved in the cabbie skit.

What about tricking someone into pasting your pubes onto their face?
The best part was after they told him and an enraged ehren suddenly remembers and screams “THEY WERE IN MY MOUTH!!!”

I was laughing so hard it made my sides hurt.

I saw the last show of the night on the 22nd. All shows before that were sold out. Our big cinema, who usually restrict rated R movies to age 18 and older only, relaxed their rules and let in 14+ with photo ID. The squeals that high schoolers produce kind of scare me.

We had a black censor box over duder’s mouth touching the glass of horse semen. I was glad for that. Was that so for other theaters? I did wonder at the time if Johnny let him off the hook for the next stunt he didn’t want to do.

I love Bam’s parents. I was the tiniest bit surprised Bam wasn’t disinherited and/or banned from the family after the gator stunt in number one. The question I posed to my sister on the way out of the theater was if our parental units would be so accepting if our young brothers opted for a Jackass-type career. We decided they wouldn’t be thrilled, to say the least.

I laughed so hard I cried. No retching, though. I look forward to the DVD release.

Phil Magera actually seemed to enjoy being in on a prank for once instead of being the butt of it.

I question the scenes shot at Bam’s house. In the 2nd or 3rd season of Viva la Bam they moved out of that house. This makes me suspect that those scenes were staged.

Does anyone know if his parents continued living there? The series suggested that they moved out with him but that could have been BS as well.

Should i be embarrassed that i know all this?
