It’s easy to mock celebrities, actors in particular, who stress to the public how difficult and important their lives are and how much fame belabors those facts. Especially when we see them living such pampered and extravagant lives. I’m here to discuss five men in Hollywood who actually DO live rather industrious existanses and yet fail to ever complain about them. In fact, most are as hard-working as they are due to their love for what they do, and wouldn’t have it any other way. Now, check all your false pretenses at the door, this list takes NO monetary statistics into account to tabulate this list. I’m simply conducting an opinionated grouping of five actors who I feel have taken on more than most men can handle in the show biz…biz, and I’m compiling this list in relation to this point in time, Autumn of 2009. Yes, Seth Rogen has appeared in MULTITUDES of films over the last five years, but after Funny People and Observe and Report of this year, the guy has been laying pretty low. This list tabulates the mainstreamers who have been racking up leading role credits in muliple expansive flicks. So, without further ado…
5. Johnny Depp
To say that I respect this man would be an intense understatement. His acting prowess is some of the best of our time, so it makes me EXTREMELY happy to see him inundated with work. If you’ve been living under the sea (visions of The Little Mermaid just popped into my head. Walt Disney prevails) for the past year then you probably haven’t heard of Depp’s numerous forays into film he has recently undertaken. Public Enemies was the only work he appeared in that was released in ’09, however, he has been fast at work on massive cinematic staples of the 2010 movie-going season that will almost-assuredly dominate the market. The first being Tim Burton’s reiteration of Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland. Depp plays The Mad Hatter in Burton’s CGI-laden could-be-wonderful-could-be-terrible still up-in-the-air retelling of the classic story. Headlining next to Anne Hathaway, Helena Bonham Carter, Matt Lucas, and Alan Rickman, the film has all the makings of a complete cinematic win, the screenshots and trailers, however, leave doubt in my mind, as CGI-laden, as I said before, is putting it nicely. Time will tell. Depp also was involved in Terry Gilliam’s The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus, filling one of the three roles created after lead actor Heath Ledger’s passing. Depp, along with Colin Farrell and Jude Law, will stand in for Ledger as alternate versions of Ledger’s character, to help the stroy along despite the events that took place prior to the film’s completion. The next chapter in the Hunter S. Thompson chronicles, The Rum Diary, is also in post, in which Depp will reprise his role as the gonzo-journalist.
In addition to these films that Depp has finished, the newest film in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise is slated for a 2011 release date and is currently in the earliest stages of pre-production. Sin City 3, which Depp has been rumored to be involved with basically from its inception, is also geared up for a 2012 release (funny considering Sin City 2 is still stuck in developmental hell).
And here’s the kicker. IMDB lists Depp as in development with FOURTEEN new titles, as well. Among them, a Dali biopic and The Lone Ranger. Wow, simply wow. While these developmental deals can fall through at any time, they can also usually indicate desire and co-involvement between the parties of the actors and the producers. It will be interesting to see where Depp’s career goes looking towards these titles.
4. Brad Pitt
Here’s another guy with developmental deals in spades. The ‘ole rusty, trusty IMDB has Pitt pegged with sixteen deals, the most I could find. In addition to being attached to The sequel to Downey Jrs Sherlock Holmes vehicle, Pitt is also listed with World War Z and a Steve McQueen biopic. Goo.
Pitt tore up the screen in Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds this summer, and has currently been attached to the fledgling project Moneyball, which is listed as being in the earliest stages of production, despite the fact that it has no director. Pitt is further attached to The Tree of Life and The Lost City of Z, as well as providing a voice to the upcoming animated flick Oobermind. He’s also rumored to be apart of 2012′s upcoming The Odyssey and The Sparrow.
3. George Clooney
The former Sexiest Man in America has never slowed down since his rocket-propelled rise to fame in the mid-to-late 90′s as well. Clooney most recently has released The Men Who Stare at Ghosts, a loosely based adaptation of the book of the same name which regards a 1970′s to 1980′s military experiment that documented telepathic phenomena. In addition to this recent film, though, Clooney finished up providing voice work for the titular role in Wes Anderson’s upcoming The Fantastic Mr. Fox, alongside Bill Murray, Meryl Streep, and Jason Schwartzman, as well as polishing off his role in the Jason Reitman-helmed Up in the Air, which is also currently in post. These are merely his acting credits for 2009, though, the man also executive produced the Matt Damon vehicle The Informant! and Playground, a movie I honestly couldn’t find too much on. As far as his queue list goes, IMDB has him cited with ten in-development deals.
2. Jim Carrey
Jim Carrey is a man of many faces. The actor became famous for his rubber-faced persona that landed him a slew of comedic work in the mid-to-late 90′s and a career launching pad that ANY actor would be proud of. By the turn of the century, however, Carrey was becoming far more versatile as an actor. Already dabbling in the dramatic with The Truman Show, Liar Liar,, and the INCREDAMAZING Andy Kaufman biopic, Man on the Moon. Carrey then went on to tackle the serious side of life full-tilt in Charlie Kaufman’s magnificent Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, opposite Kate Winslet, The Majestic, and the box office blunder The Number 23. He has returned to comedy in recent years, however, and, as always, has fully immersed himself in his roles. Recently released is the Zemeckis-penned adaptation of Dickens’ A Christmas Carol in which Carrey provided the movements and voices to Scrooge at all ages of life AND the three spirits that visit him! Encompassing multiple accents, multiple ages of life, and multiple SPIRITUAL BEINGS, Carrey tackled the project head-on while keeping busy with multiple other projects, such as I Love You, Philip Morris, the tale of an escaped homosexual convict who goes on a quest to find his lover that was released from prison before he was. The film has been receiving stellar reviews and co-stars Ewan McGregor opposite Carrey in this bold and self-titled dark comedy. All the while that these two flicks have been in post, Carrey has both been bulking up and studying up to play Curly Howard in the upcoming Three Stooges revamp with Paul Giamatti and possibly Benecio Del Toro. This was all considered fact for the longest time and was referenced multiple times by Carrey’s apparent weight gain in the tabloids and public citings, but, as of late, Carrey has been described as withdrawing from the project. It doesn’t negate the fact that the man was taking on multiple roles immediately after finishing his previously mentioned two. Further, IMBD.com has Carrey listed in FOUR different upcoming development deals. Which may seem normal for a star of his status, but when you consider the work load he will indefinitely take on with these upcoming roles, it makes a profound statement on his desire to never be bored.
In addition to his films and the launch of a fully-functioning personal website that has actually made the rounds and received a warm/geeky reception from the film/internet blogosphere, Carrey and his wife Jenny McCarthy have consistantly maintained their involvement in the charity Generation Rescue, which strives to find alternative ways to treat autism in children. Not bad for a man who was talking with his butt a little over 10 years ago.
1. Nicolas Cage
Go ahead and laugh (you’ve earned it) but the man has yet to produce a dull movie (I said ‘dull’ not ‘bad’) and his work output is something for ANY actor to admire, regardless of how badly he phones roles in. Before I continue, most of you know, but for those who don’t, everything I joke about Nicolas Cage comes from a place of sincere reverance. Yes, the man takes part in AWFUL movies (which, given his current economic situation could just be to keep the lights on) but in each film he’s in he is always FULLY committed to the story being told. And I’m sorry, but I’d rather watch Cage run around in a Bear suit any day FULLY EMBRACING THE ROLE than see Tom Hanks win ANOTHER Oscar for appearing in some adaptation of a story set in the 1940′s. ALL TANGENTS ASIDE, Cage has kept himself QUITE stacked as of late. In early 2009 the CGI-Fest known as G-Force dropped with Cage providing a voice as well as Cage’s vehicle Knowing, in which he played the lead. Throughout the remainder of the year he has worked on The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, Matthew Vaughn’s Kick-Ass, Season of the Witch, and Werner FOOKING Herzog’s Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans. Did I mention the voice that he provided for Astro Boy? No? Well, lump that in there as well. IMDB has him attached to 4 deals in development, one of which being (GET READY!!!) Ghost Rider 2! Which creators have said will distance itself from the original as a revamp, not a sequel. Yet, it still stars Cage as the lead. Oh, how I LOVE this man! It simply amazes me what Hollywood will greenlight.
And speaking of hard working, (and by hard-working, I mean shameless self-promotion!) visit my sketch troupe’s Youtube or Facebook and comment/subscribe/hate/love/befriend/never talk to us again/enjoy our attempts at making you laugh!
After two years of running the festival circuit with Mystery Team (which is still trying to get an expanded release, which you can help with by going to their respective sites and demanding it) Derrick Comedy is back to putting out sketches!!! This one comes in the form of a pseudo-Behind the Music of a certain scandalous boy band. What I loved about the clip is that I ended up singing the chorus by the end of the video. Ask yourself; Is that wrong?
Forgive the COMPLETELY non-sequitur picture of The Mighty Boosh above, but I am 1. completely infatuated with them 2. currently writing a research paper on them and 3. clueless as to what else to make the picture! So YAY! for the Boosh! Anyway, there are a plethora of cover artists on Youtube. Just as there are a multitude of people with webcam shows and sketch comedy troupes (who would do THAT?). But below is a list of the few that have stood out to me in my internet surfing. Becca Cole (or Becca de la Musique as she so likes to be called) is a lovely little British thing with a lovely little voice to match. I listed her first as I absolutely ADORE her version of Bloc Party’s Flux (Did I mention I have a thing for British girls?). It helps in this instance that she is covering one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite artists, but if you go to her Youtube page, she has a PLETHORA of covers that are just as magnificent, just not my particular genre. Pomplamoose (sounds like a Dr. Seuss villain) is an INCREDAMAZING No-Cal-based duo that crank out wonderful covers/videos of “performances” that encompass a mastery of the visual and audible arts. Their cover of Beyonce’s Single Ladies is so good it actually improves upon the original (a LOT). Below the Single Ladies video I have included Jack Conte’s (the male half of Pomplamoose) rendition of Gorillaz’s Feel Good Inc. The maestro pays great homage to the song while adding in a bit of his own element. And finally, ZanyClo is another acoustic cover artist much in the vein of Becca Cole with a beautifully spirited voice. The girl conveys so much with just her magnitude and strength that she puts into every song. Her cover of MGMT’s Electric Feel is fabulous.
There, I feel better. Nothing like an obsessive-compulsive listing of random endeavors to brighten my day! The interwebs can feel like an inundation of content at times, but if you just dig, you can always come up with chunks of gold. For instance, I hear there’s this group called Bears With Sparklers…
Becca Cole: Bloc Pary’s Flux
Pomplamoose: Beyonce’s Single Ladies
Jack Conte of Pomplamoose: Gorillaz’s Feel Good Inc.
I wasn’t even going to cover this issue as it was beginning to die down in the media and opinion seemed to be swinging more to the side of reason. However, it takes very little to ignite the powderkeg of nerd-roided fury I always keep at a simmer, and an article on /film is perfectly fitting. There had been a bunch of hubbub recently about the DirecTV ad featuring David Spade re-enacting a classic scene from Tommy Boy in which the late, great Chris Farley’s image is imposed. As you can well imagine, the ad had been in contention from the very moment it was launched. In fact, the first time I viewed the ad was in a response post on /film. While it may be an eyebrow-raiser at first, the ad does nothing maliscious to Farley’s image and even seems to celebrate it with Spade delivering a fourth-wall-breaking “It never gets old” to the camera. Let’s also take into account the oft-pointed to fact that Farley’s family themselves are the only ones capable of signing off on this endeavor. They agreed to the promotion along with Spade, one of Farley’s best friends up until his death, and they are the ones reaping the benefits of Farley’s image.
While everyone is up-in-arms over the usage of a dead celebrity’s visage, let’s take a few things into account here. Farley’s image is not doctored AT ALL. It is the exact clip from Tommy Boy even in its original context of the joke. Far from being derogatory, the clip is actually a celebration of the work of Farley and seeks to advertise DirecTV through the love and fanbase that this movie has established. What Farley produced, his works, are in the public consiousness now. Though he is gone, Tommy Boy lives on forever in the hearts and minds of its fans (excuse me while I get down from this tall soapbox). Understandably, utilizing Farley’s PERSONAL image to increase revenue would seem dubious, but replaying and reopening an old work that he did is far from mistreatment. In fact, it runs more along the lines of enforcing admiration for Farley’s craft. If this commercial had never been produced no one would have taken a moment out of their day and said, “Wow, it sure is great that Chris Farley’s image is being upheld through its non-usage in the public sphere.” No. No one would have even thought of it, save for someone who randomly remembered a snippet from the film and went home to rewatch it. What the DirectTV ad is doing is channelling the public love and reverence for this movie into marketing and sales. Sure, Farley’s work is being used to push product, but what do you think it does on cable, in syndication? With over 30 MINUTES of advertisements juxtaposed in? This ad is doing nothing worse than running a movie on basic cable. Actually, it’s doing one better, as it is creating a symbiotic relationship with the original work in that it is bringing it back into the forefront of public perception quickly, efficiently, and repeatedly. Tommy Boy has seen more press coverage and attention in the last few weeks than it has seen in the last few years. And when it comes to classics like this, preservation and celebration of the work IS what counts. Do you really think that in 25 years, kids will have a DIRECT connection to Tommy Boy? Think of other classics from 25 years ago. Most of Mel Brook’s more obscure but arguably better canon (Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, History of the World, etc.) is unknown by today’s generation. The only way they come to knowing these works is through interactions with older generations that pass these tomes down to them. These commercials bringing Tommy Boy back into the public consciousness are as crucial to keeping the movie relevant as any other form of preservation. They provide quick, continual reminders of the film as it was. Not doctored, added to, or subtracted from, just a short segment from a true American comedy. How can this downplay the legacy that Farley left on this Earth? If anything it enforces it by creating conflict and reentering the late comic into the sphere of relevance.
Apparently, I was a bit impetuous with my previous post, as there are a LOAD of She Wolf spoofs out there. Below are a few of my favorites. Granted, some of these are FAR better than others. Oh, just make sure to watch the She Worf one. It’s amazing and actually kind of catchy in its own right. I can’t help it, I’m a sucker for Auto-Tune.
After a lackluster-at-best summer movie season, we have all been (strangely) blessed with an incredible 09-10 season to look forward to. I seriously haven’t been this jazzed about movie-going in a few years. It seems that an amazing new debut is announced weekly at this point, which is really cutting in on my Hollywood bitching time. Below, I’ve created a haphazard, make-shift rundown of what I am absolutely chomping at the bit to see in the upcoming season:
The Road-Cormac McCarthy’s novel’s big screen adaptation was recently pushed back to Thanksgiving, frightening me all the more as I fear that studios are losing faith in its bankability.
Alice in Wonderland-Tim Burton’s CGI-fest update of Lewis Carrol’s classic. Though I am EXTREMELY skeptical, Depp as the Mad Hatter with Matt Lucas, Helena Bonham Carter, Anne Hathaway, Michael Sheen, Crispin Glover, Stephen Fry, and Alan Rickman are keeping my cries of “CGI-FOUL!” at bay.
Iron Man 2-I’m intrigued to see Downey fight Mickey Rourke. Intrigued enough to include this entry on this list. Past that, to be honest, I don’t see this film panning out much differently than its predecessor, but, as long as they deliver on some great Downey/Rourke headbashing, I’ll be content.
The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus-This is, hands down, the crown jewel of this list. Terry Gilliam’s fantasy epic starring the late Heath Ledger had to improvise with its script as Ledger passed away during filming. So what is one of the most revered directors in Hollywood to do when he loses his lead actor? Simple, he calls in Johnny Depp, Jude Law, and Colin Ferrell to replace him. All in one movie. Johnny Depp, Jude Law, Colin Ferrell, and Heath Ledger all play the same role. I was trying to come up with a new word to describe this event, but I simply can’t.
Zombieland-I’m not even a self-professed zombie-buff like many of my co-horts, but the trailers for this endeavor look too astounding to pass up. Watching Woody Harrelson annihilate zombies while taking the less-than-menacing Jesse Eisenberg under his wing is all I wanted over the summer ’09 movie season. Was that so much to ask?
I Love You Philip Morris-Jim Carrey and Ewan McGregor in a dark comedy about an inmate who breaks out of jail once his lover is released from the same prison. I love Jim Carrey. I love Ewan McGregor. I love the premise. I Love You, Philip Morris. (I’m sorry, I couldn’t resist.)
A Christmas Carol-Robert Zemeckis retells Dickens’ classic utilizing Jim Carrey as Scrooge and all three ghosts. Need I say more?
Fantastic Mr. Fox-Wes Anderson helms this Roald Dahl retelling with a cast the likes of Meryl Streep, George Clooney, Jason Schwartzman, Bill Murray, and Owen Wilson. CAN. NOT. WAIT.
Inception-Christopher Nolan’s first at-bat (no pun intended) since The Dark Knight. A sci-fi/thriller starring Leo DiCaprio. How many good things can we combine into a single movie?
Youth in Revolt-Michael Cera adopts an alternate persona all in the hopes of wooing a love interest. My description doesn’t do the title nearly as much justice as images of Cera with a faux mustache.
Bronson-Having been called A Clockwork Orange of our time, Bronson chronicles the true story of Charles Bronson, the prisoner, who attained superstar status from simply being an unruly inmate.
(Untitled)-An art flick commenting on the absurdity of art flicks and art in general. Seems to be everything Art School Confidential promised to be but failed to deliver on.
Gentlemen Broncos-Jared Hess’ latest directing forray is a surreal fantasy about a down-on-their-luck sci-fi writer who steals a young boy’s manuscript and profits greatly. I was sold upon reading “A surreal fantasy.”
The Box-Richard Kelly (who I’m STILL giving credit for Donnie Darko) directs James Marsden and Cameron Diaz in a thriller about a married couple who discover an obscure box left on their doorstep. Try to forget Southland Tales for just a minute and remember: James Marsden.
World’s Greatest Dad-This could very well be the role that brings poignancy back to Robin Williams’ career. Williams plays a failed poet father who finds his son dead due to auto-erotic asphyxiation. To lull his son’s unfortunate fate, he writes a beautiful suicide note that gets absurd publicity and paints his son as a genius. Williams then must decide whether to out himself as the genius or maintain his son’s newfound celebrity. Did I mention that Bobcat Goldthwait is helming the project?
The Vampire’s Assistant-All production stills simply do not do this flick justice, you HAVE to check out the trailer. Otherwise it just looks like John C. Reilly attempting a recreation of Nic Cage’s The Magician’s Apprentice, and that isn’t even out yet! This quasi fantasy-quasi comedy-quasi drama seems to be perfect for John C. Reilly who stars in the lead role. After pulling schlock duty at the Apatow-Factory for the last few years, it will be good to see him be able to stretch again and actually play with something with some meat to it.
Where the Wild Things Are-Spike Jonze’s adaptation of everyone’s favorite children’s book looks amazing and I’m very curious to see how good/bad it pans out.
9-Back to John C. Reilly! This voice cast is amongst the best I have seen in years. Christopher Plummer is a catch in any medium.
The Lovely Bones-The trailers all look AMAZING and have kept my appetite satiated for this neo-fantasy thriller involving a young girl slain before her time and her attempt to reach out from beyond the grave.
Big Fan-Patton Oswalt has put down a show-stopping dramatic performance that has stunned and stupefied most critics with its un-abashedly powerful and sincere dramatic intent. Oswalt steps out of the image he has been stereotyped with and fully explodes on the scene with a (hopefully) attention grabbing portrayal.
Not Quite Hollywood-A documentary (which I am usually a sucker for) about the explosion of the Australian film market in the ’70′s. Pure. Genius.
Kick-Ass-Michael Cera and Nick Cage star in Mark Miller’s adaptation of his own graphic novel in which an everyday kid takes on the mantel of the superhero. Miller’s graphic novel has a die-hard, monstrous fan base while being a relatively new title. Plus, Nic Cage.
Cold Souls-Paul Giamatti plays himself in a Being John Malkovich sort of drama, in which Paul, a successful actor, takes part in a breakthrough soul-removal-procedure.
This entire effort seems fairly frivolous, because, while this is all I can think of now, as soon as I finish writing this article, fourteen more trailers will be released and will stupify me. I’m FAR from complaining, however, as it has been years since I’ve been anywhere near this excited about anything Hollywood has done. Happy movie-going everyone!
It’s been a long time. Shouldn’t have left you, without a dope beat to step to…I really need to stop quoting old Timbaland songs. Anyway, I intend on writing much more. I’ve been trying to get my life in order so the ‘ole Shwayblog was a bit on hiatus. During this time, though, I’ve been watching a ton of The Mighty Boosh to keep me going. The Boosh are an institution onto themselves that continually churn out and discover the best comedy, live performances, and music. For this post, we shall focus on the music. The Boosh are big fans and advocates of electroclash outfit Robots in Disguise, which, after hearing about them, I became a big fan, as well. Robots in Disguise consists of Dee Plume and Sue Denim. Their music is fast-paced, poppy, and capable of making you dance whether or not you want to. It’s fascinating. And their videos are on a whole ‘nother level. They are absolutely hilarious, appropriately almost always contain robots, and sometimes involve members of The Boosh, themselves. Below, I’ve listed my two favorite videos and below that, one of my favorite songs by them without a video. Extra credit for those of you who can spot the Fielding brothers in one of the two videos!
Comedy is a very delicate art. Everyone laughs differently at different things, and yet, some humor just seems to be universal, like Lindsay Lohan being reduced to made-for-TV-movies on ABC Family. Anyway, the guys over at 5secondfilms.com seem to have the formula for funny. As the name suggests, each sketch they produce (they put out a new one every weekday) is merely 5 seconds long. This produces a wonderfully quick, concise, and usually absurd punch line that always manages to make me laugh. I’ve been meaning to promote these guys for awhile now. Follow your nose!!!! Uh…I mean, the link below.
I was really on a “no-bitching” streak there for awhile. Oh, well, all good things must come to a bloody, screeching end.
If you’re anything like me, then you can be sent into a violent bloody rage in an instant simply by hearing the words ‘Laguna Beach’ or ‘The Hills.’ I have more virulent contempt/rage/hatred/jealousy stored up towards those shows than we would need to power the western world if it ran on hate juice. Just seeing or hearing about anyone actually on the show or in the production team that make that mindless dribble possible makes me want to cut myself out of frustration. The fact that these mindless walking billboards are given jobs or money of any kind is an absolute insult to the rest of the human race. So, when I see Audrina Partridge’s ad campaign she’s recently been doing for Carl’s Jr., I get flustered, to say the least. If by flustered you mean a neon haze of scene kid kicking and flailing. It’s enough to make me boycott eating at Carl’s Jr….if I ever actually had eaten at Carl’s Jr. But one of my favorite Comediennes, Iliza Shlesinger, has taken all my bitching and moaning and actually created some pretty clever comedy out of it. The season six winner of Last Comic Standing (and the comedic ambassador to Cutesville (I hear it’s beautiful this time of year)) has served up a mock-u-tisement of Partridge’s Carl’s Jr. promotion and she seems to have beaten Audrina on two fronts. Her video successfully lampoons Partridge as the lifeless ape that she is and her stupid fast food financier AS WELL AS shows Shlesinger as having the better body. And as sexist and trite as that sounds, I don’t care. Audrina’s sole purpose and reason for being employed by anyone at all is that the American public has (foolishly) placed the mantle of “attractive” on her and advertisers have seen the marketability she draws from her supposed good looks. Shlesinger (a comedienne who actually relys on her talent to pay the bills instead of genetics and a diet plan) not only makes Partridge look like the tool that she is, she also manages to show her up in her own arena. While you can understandably call me shallow, trite, misogynistic, whatever, the fact of the matter is that there’s nothing better than beating someone at their game while subsequently beating them at yours. Follow the link before to watch the clip on Funnyordie. GO TEAM SHLESINGER!!!
I’m a huge fan of Andy Samberg and The Lonely Island, along with the work they produce. Comedy and hip hop fit together so well, and I can only assume that it’s because you need NO musical talent whatsoever to work a beat machine and write a few rhyming lyrics that these two genres have managed to compliment one another so often. That being said, the whole, comedy/rap gimmick has become QUITE played out and stale in the past few months. Jon Lajoie, however, manages to do what so many people have done before him, without seeming played out or generic at all. In fact, I would put Lajoie ahead of Samberg any day. Granted, Lajoie’s work is FAR more NSFW, and doesn’t have the polished and refined sound that Samberg is able to afford with his backing. Nor does it offer the snazzy videos featuring T-Pain or Justin Timberlake. Yet, despite all that, Lajoie garners far more laughs per minute by unleashing the most committed, insane, leashes-off, free-flowing rhyme fest I have ever heard. I Kill People is probably the most tame, and the best way to get your feet wet to his style, however, the most hilarious vid has to be Show Me Your Genitals, the unabashedly un-PC sexist romp that holds absolutely NO punches and never even flinches in its ridiculousness. It’s SO unwaveringly awful that words will do it no justice. It simply must be watched to be experienced. So add a view to his tally of already 15 million views on Youtube and check out the videos below. Just remember, if there was ever a comic not safe for work, it’s this guy. Oh, and he’s also on iTunes.
