Anyone here seen "The Aristocrats"?
If you haven't, I'm not going to ruin it for you. But picture this: over 100 comics putting their own unique spin on possibly the most offensive joke ever told. It's disgusting- but undoubtedly hilarious!
I mean, c'mon, it's independently made so you KNOW it has to be good.

Anyway, anyone who's seen it, sound off here about what you thought. Anyone who hasn't, what are you waiting for?

1. I want to see that...
I need to find out where it's showing.

Thanks for not ruining it, but haven't we all heard some variation of the joke by now?

2. You might have.
You might have not. I know I didn't even really recognize the origin of the joke until well after I watched the movie. The beauty of the joke is that it is ALWAYS different, depending on the depravity of the mind telling it.
But imagine the best comics in the world telling it. Doesn't get much better than that.

8. Saget is surprisingly dirty
I hope he didn't pass that potty mouth onto the Olsen twins while filming Full House.

3. Only a few of them.
I met Earl Howe recently, plus a few Bishops (some of whom are members of the House of Lords). I did meet a German Prince once - he is also the chap who sorts out the finances for the Rolling Stones (I met him through his son who is a Priest).

6. I was interested in seeing it, but then I saw
the South Park version of the joke online, and I thought the joke was totally stupid. I love raunchy humor--hey, I even enjoyed the Diceman-- but I get the impression this is just people trying to outdo each other with greater levels of disgustingness just for the sake of being disgusting. I thought there might be some creativity to the joke, but I'm getting the impression there isn't. I'd rather see them get disgusting in a plausible way, not in a ridiculous way. :shrug:

If I'm wrong about this, let me know.
