Who is excited and waiting for this to come out?
(I think it's Oct. 25th in America, and Jan 24th in the UK.)

― A Nairn (moretap), Monday, 14 October 2002 03:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Jesus, no-one, I would hope. Jackass is the Sex Pistols of stupid, with the added advantage that some of the people who go "Yeah! I could do that!" will end up dead.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Monday, 14 October 2002 08:29 (twenty-three years ago)

Andrew = on crack!!

I can't bloody wait, in fact I've got a mate in Thailand ready to send me a pirate dvd as soon as they hit the stalls in Bangkok.

The trailers look fantastic.

― chris (chris), Monday, 14 October 2002 08:37 (twenty-three years ago)

Okay then, defend it. Explain what is worthwhile about people damaging themselves on camera. Pay particular attention to the distinction between it and You've Been Framed/America's Funniest Home Videos.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Monday, 14 October 2002 09:24 (twenty-three years ago)

see the thread I started ages ago. Everyone needs some mindless fun in their lives and Jackass is it for me. Admittedly I'm not a big fan of the clips where they con or make fun of hapless passers-by, there it steps into the realm of trigger-happy tv etc which you speak of but when they do the stunts etc it can be exhilarating, for example Tony Hawk and Matt Hoffman on the loop the loop jump into the lake, absolutely awesome.

― chris (chris), Monday, 14 October 2002 09:27 (twenty-three years ago)

that other thread:
Jackass c or d

― chris (chris), Monday, 14 October 2002 09:44 (twenty-three years ago)

I actually like the ones with the passers by. I hated when Dom Joly did the sketches with old people though, easy targets and also they all seemed quite taken in.

― Ronan (Ronan), Monday, 14 October 2002 09:47 (twenty-three years ago)

curses, Chris had spotted my secret Cool Thing I Saw On Jackass (the loop the loop)

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Monday, 14 October 2002 10:04 (twenty-three years ago)

has anyone seen the CKY movies?

― g-kit (g-kit), Monday, 14 October 2002 10:09 (twenty-three years ago)

you can't argue with the Loop, dude.

and on that, Bam was damaging himself, yes. But only because he wanted to do the thing so goddamn much.

an infrequently mentioned classic has to be the iceblock sledding, so simple, so much fun!!

not seen cky yet, although when solvent again I will be getting a few.

― chris (chris), Monday, 14 October 2002 10:11 (twenty-three years ago)

Andrew WK is on the soundtrack Andrew with his bestest song yet!!

― Tom (Groke), Monday, 14 October 2002 10:12 (twenty-three years ago)

ah, the CKYs are really great. they're doing another movie called 'Haggard', or so i hear. with actual plot & stuff. hmmmm. not sure if there's gonna be a CKY4. anyone know?

― g-kit (g-kit), Monday, 14 October 2002 10:16 (twenty-three years ago)

yeah, I read about Haggard on one of the fansites. Rake Yohn (long haired bloke who gets antiqued and doesn't like it) is the main character from what I remember.

I did hear about Stevo being arrested for public indecency recently after stapling his scrotum to his thigh in a nightclub.

― chris (chris), Monday, 14 October 2002 10:24 (twenty-three years ago)

i think steve-o's stapling thing was for his own video, imaginatively titled "the steve-o video" i believe. i didn't know Rake Yohn was in it lots, but i heard it was based on Ryan Dunn's (guy with er, shit on his lip) weird love-life. but what do i know?

― g-kit (g-kit), Monday, 14 October 2002 10:27 (twenty-three years ago)

hmm, I may be mistooken, but Tony Hawk definitely place a cop

― chris (chris), Monday, 14 October 2002 10:32 (twenty-three years ago)

I love Jackass, I didn't know they were doing a movie. I won't be able to see it at the cinema though because it makes me laugh too much and then I have coughing fits and I don't want to lose all dignity in public, even if is dark public. It takes me about 5 days to recover from watching each episode.

― toraneko (toraneko), Monday, 14 October 2002 11:36 (twenty-three years ago)

did anybody see the x-files episode where there was a fake jackass? they called it dumbass and some guy on it had his skull collapse in because flies ate his brain at a fantastic rate...
i'd never really watched the x-files - has it always been so comedy?!

― minna (minna), Monday, 14 October 2002 11:45 (twenty-three years ago)

This will be the greatest thing in history. I'm assured of it. Jonny Knoxville is the only man who can challenge Steve Irwin for the title of "Greatest Human Alive"

The movie never gets old, does it?

― milozauckerman (miloaukerman), Monday, 18 July 2005 02:31 (twenty years ago)

The yellow snow-cone scene almost made me barf.

― Rock Hardy (Rock Hardy), Monday, 18 July 2005 02:38 (twenty years ago)

The only bad scene is where one of them takes a dump in the demonstration toilet. Someone had to clean that up, yuck.

I've never really seen the TV show (half an ep here and there) or the CKY videos, which should come next?

― milozauckerman (miloaukerman), Monday, 18 July 2005 02:40 (twenty years ago)

there is a fabulous gay porn out called spunked that unsublimates the totatlly hot homoeroticism of the knoxville.

― anthony easton (anthony), Monday, 18 July 2005 03:22 (twenty years ago)

does anybody else find it funny that it was A Nairn who started this thread?

― kingfish (Kingfish), Monday, 18 July 2005 03:29 (twenty years ago)

the shorter the bits are in this the better. none of them are bad bad but yeah the toilet, the old ppl, the toy truck up the guy's ass, ehhh. the 12-sec one of the guy trampolining into a ceiling fan is one of the most amazing things i've ever seen.

― demonlolver (gcannon), Monday, 18 July 2005 03:38 (twenty years ago)

my fave is still the guys falling out of the ceiling on the "failed jewel heist" thing. I was crying due to laughing so hard.

as my normally stoic roommate said of the movie at the time: "Best $8 i spent all year."

i've never understood that, either. it must be pretty awful. especially people who watch it, but then look away/cover their face during the painful/gross out bits.
why are you watching it at all!?
i watched that episode where they sit there drinking a gallon of milk because i knew they'd spew it up again, not because i like watching people drink milk.
TEH MIND, IT DOES BOGGLE.

what do you people think of 'dirty sanchez'?

― a rapper singing about hos and bitches and money (Enrique), Friday, 8 September 2006 14:58 (nineteen years ago)

i always thought it really funny that the Onion AV Club sent their only female critic to review the flick, who had absolutely no idea how to process it. It's like the editors realized that the movie was critic-proof, so they figured they have a bit of fun by sending the chick reviewer to see it.

sorry didn't mean to be mean - it's just that that movie is exuberant joy personified in all its fucked up, brilliant vicissitudes.

― jhoshea (scoopsnoodle), Friday, 8 September 2006 15:01 (nineteen years ago)

The difference between Jackass and Dirty Sanchez is that the only "entertainment" value in DS comes from them hurting themselves, it's like a skateboarding video writ large. In Jackass, the stuff is funny even if they don't get injured. I'd give examples but, y'know.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Friday, 8 September 2006 15:02 (nineteen years ago)

Perfectly example. The Bounty Hunter skit as well, which is probably the funniest thing they ever did.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Friday, 8 September 2006 15:08 (nineteen years ago)

Dudes, lay off Ned. He is not being patronizing, his favorite movie is the Lord Of The Rings for christ aloud! His sister probably* holds his choices in an equally rubber-gloved manner.

Ned, I tease. I just didn't want to fall prey to the big brotherly vibe.

the guys are hard to like

If only I had this problem.

re: Bam tears - he fears teh snakes and was locked in a pen with a King Cobra. Dastardly. Most of the special I watched last night was the guys complaining about how evil and cruel their director(jeff tremaine) is. Apparantly with the fame all they are left with is pain-inducing stunts on each other and dressing up as old folx.

From the NY Times review, where they usually reveal why it got a rating ("Strong Sexual Content, Drug Use")

“Jackass Number Two” is rated R (Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian). Things you can’t even imagine.

― kingfish prætor (kingfish 2.0), Friday, 22 September 2006 15:33 (nineteen years ago)

the Onion sez

Just about the only thing that could make this movie any gayer would be cameos from John Waters and Rip Taylor and a closing Busby Berkley-style musical production number. Oh wait, it's got those too.

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Friday, 22 September 2006 18:01 (nineteen years ago)

When Waters gazes over the American landscape and sees what his revolution in bad taste has wrought—vast armies of suburban teens lining up to see grown men drink horse sperm, do sadistic things with dildos, and vomit profusely—he must feel awfully proud.

Homoeroticism does have a long history in suburban skateboarder culture(where all these guys come from). hell, my best friend from high school would talk about the weird shit at skateboard camp.

― kyle (akmonday), Friday, 22 September 2006 19:23 (nineteen years ago)

I did not see the first one in the theater as I had yet to have my jackass-guys-are-hot eureka moment. So I'm very much looking forward to it tomorrow. Also we are seeing it at the Alamo Drafthouse which means food + beer with movie. yay.

John Waters, Johnny Knoxville and "Steve-O" Stephen Glover in Paramount's Jackass: Number Two - 2006

― kingfish prætor (kingfish 2.0), Friday, 22 September 2006 19:49 (nineteen years ago)

Easily the funniest thing I've seen all year, BUT:

1. Not enough Johnny Knoxville. Bam and Steve-O get more screentime, and the other players get even more than them. I don't mind Steve-O and a couple of the bit-players, but Bam is a bitch for the most part.

2. The Spike Jonze bits suck.

3. Much more mean-spirited and sadistic than the first movie or the TV show. The first one was defensible as physical comedy, pure and simple - I could recommend it to my parents and they loved the movie. This one, not so much, it's got a much harder edge, more gross-outs, and you have to get off (to some degree) on watching people be miserable.

4. Bodily fluids AHOY

― milo z (mlp), Friday, 22 September 2006 21:03 (nineteen years ago)

I'm glad I hadn't read a review that spoiled the Berkley ending.

― milo z (mlp), Friday, 22 September 2006 21:03 (nineteen years ago)

3 follows from 1 presumably. WIldboyz and the Bam Show were both pretty awful.

― milo z (mlp), Friday, 22 September 2006 21:04 (nineteen years ago)

hilarious

and there seemed to be a normal amount of johnny knoxville, unless you are in love with him or something.

and i didn't think it was mean-spirited at all. i mean comparatively.

― s1ocki (slutsky), Saturday, 23 September 2006 03:52 (nineteen years ago)

I've never seen any Jackass, but I saw the Bam show and loved his mom's astonished reactions, and the subtitles for the slob uncle.

I'd also gladly make Bam my bitch IF I could tape his mouth shut (or otherwise plug it).

― Sam: Screwed and Chopped (Molly Jones), Sunday, 24 September 2006 19:35 (nineteen years ago)

well, they've already made a profit on the flick, since this thing pulled in $28M over the weekend.

― kingfish prætor (kingfish 2.0), Sunday, 24 September 2006 19:57 (nineteen years ago)

I think I might join the chorus of gay gays going "mmmmm...homoerotic!" if I didn't faintly suspect some of Jackass crew weren't the victims of sexual abuse as children.

Actually, I'm not sure I really believe this but I kinda do like saying it for the buzzkill.

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Sunday, 24 September 2006 20:18 (nineteen years ago)

that doesn't make any sense.

― Sam: Screwed and Chopped (Molly Jones), Sunday, 24 September 2006 20:21 (nineteen years ago)

My understanding is that self-injury is one later manifestation of sexual (and other kinds of) abuse; whether it is in fact in a league with things like cutting, bulemia, etc. is something I know nothing about.

One key difference between what happens in Jackass and things like cutting is that people who self-mutilate tend to do it in private.

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Sunday, 24 September 2006 20:31 (nineteen years ago)

yes, I would keep your broad generalizations to yourself.

― Sam: Screwed and Chopped (Molly Jones), Sunday, 24 September 2006 20:33 (nineteen years ago)

I'm not sure what broad generalization I've just made other than "people who self-mutilate tend to do it in private," which actually undercuts whatever argument I've made.

OK, the thing about gay men approving of Jackass is also something of a broad generalization but it's one played out in my small cirlce of friends and...other places.

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Sunday, 24 September 2006 20:38 (nineteen years ago)

Although you admitted that you were trying to be a buzzkill assuming that the jackass guys must have been abused children b/c of what they do now is making some pretty broad assumptions and just a generally sucky thing to say. Is every adolescent who skates handrails an abuse victim? You think you can pick out people with fucked up pasts so easily?

― Sam: Screwed and Chopped (Molly Jones), Sunday, 24 September 2006 20:42 (nineteen years ago)

Actually, I kinda do think that violence directed towards the self really does strongly suggest past trauma, even if it's not a universal or a given (nb: I said "faintly suspect" earlier).

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Sunday, 24 September 2006 21:00 (nineteen years ago)

Actually, I think I'm gonna drop the subject because I fear this all could get rather heavy in the wrong way rather fast.

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Sunday, 24 September 2006 21:11 (nineteen years ago)

To summarize my feelings I shall very poorly paraprahse a Dave Chappelle stand-up bit:

Dave orders chicken in some deep south restaurant. The man says he knew that's what Dave was going to order. "How did you know that?" Dave asks, surprised. "Because everybody knows black people and chicken go together." Dave says, "I was very upset. I was not ready to hear that. Here I was, thinking I liked chicken because it tasted delicious. Turns out it's because I'm genetically disposed to like chicken. Now I'm afraid to eat it in public. 'Look at him. He sure loves that chicken'"

― Sam: Screwed and Chopped (Molly Jones), Sunday, 24 September 2006 21:25 (nineteen years ago)

Steve-O is pretty self-destructive in real life, it seems, what with his heavy substance abuse. I predict he'll pull a Chris Farley any day now. It's a wonder he hasn't already.

Jackass 1 = funny prank movie
Jackass 2 = pinnacle of art, Matthew Barney on his best day wishes he could make a movie like this

― I DIED, Saturday, 17 October 2009 21:17 (sixteen years ago)

both jackass 1 & 2 are 5-star classics, maybe the funniest movies of the decades

morbs also otm re paper cut scenes - whenever i re-watch it i never ever watch that scene

MoMA is winding up a Spike Jonze retro, and he coproduced it.

From wiki:

One of the stunts Bam Margera stated he intended to film was entitled "The Worst Wake-up in the World" in which himself and Ryan Dunn would wake up Bam's fellow friend Brandon Novak with "Defibrillator's, then urinate onto his face, throw flour on him to cake the urine, punch him in each eye, and then release six vampire bats into the room, and lock the door".

― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 24 March 2010 09:27 (sixteen years ago)

kinda want to see bam margera on the end of some cruel shit. maybe film him walking in on the rest of them in flagrante with his mother & wife. then he be like....damn

I would've watched #2 a lot sooner if I knew how much succulent Bam ass was in it.

Def sicker and meaner than #1, I flinched and cowered more. Partial to "Fart Mask."

ah it looks so stupid i cannot wait :D

i watched the shark week thing they did on discovery, it was kinda forced & stupid as hell as expected but i kinda loved it

― terminators of endearment (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 20 July 2021 17:09 (four years ago)

There was no shark bite follow-up?

― Josh in Chicago, Tuesday, 20 July 2021 17:11 (four years ago)

they kinda follow up within the episode? he shows back up with his forearm in a kind of soft cast thing and they do a straight forward dive after the bite segment to show that sharks wont bite you if you dont cannonball into their hood

it was basically “all’s well that ends well dont do dumb shit around sharks”

― terminators of endearment (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 20 July 2021 17:15 (four years ago)

I would so love to watch this with my soon to be 7 year old but realize that would probably make me a terrible parent. But man would it be hilarious.

― joygoat, Tuesday, 20 July 2021 23:25 (four years ago)

or the BEST parent…?

no, terrible parent, you’re right lol

― terminators of endearment (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 21 July 2021 00:42 (four years ago)

The whole series and all the movies should be in the Criterion Collection. In packaging at least as fancy as their Godzilla set.

― terminators of endearment (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 21 July 2021 01:04 (four years ago)

i watched all of these recently and while the fellas are physically running out of gas by 3 it's all still up there with my favorite cinema of all-time

― Clay, Wednesday, 21 July 2021 01:10 (four years ago)

i think it has a lot to do with how much they genuinely like each other & the inherent youthfulness in the stupid joy they give each other & the audience. i think that makes it weirdly eternal

also nut shots

the GQ article/interview recently was amazing

― J Edgar Noothgrush (Joan Crawford Loves Chachi), Wednesday, 21 July 2021 02:19 (four years ago)

One thing I also love about Jackass is that they nearly always pull pranks on each other rather than random people, and it has a remarkably KIP vibe for what could easily get ugly

I tried to rewatch one of Bam's CKY movies recently and had to turn it off. The vibe is gross, lots of slurs, mean pranks on strangers. Even though it has a bunch of the elements I like about Jackass

― Vinnie, Wednesday, 21 July 2021 23:31 (four years ago)

100% agree

It's ok to punch up

― Vinnie, Thursday, 22 July 2021 00:23 (four years ago)

But I think I am probably underestimating the number of pranks they pull on strangers. Maybe it's better to say they save their worst stuff for each other

I've showed my kids a couple of clips here and there and they just don't really get it. I've gotta assume a steady diet of tik tok et al has innured them to some of it's charms. At the same time, there are some Jackass gross eating gags I just don't think I can stomach anymore. Downing freshly expressed horse semen? Eating a vomit omelette? I dunno, man ...

― Josh in Chicago, Thursday, 22 July 2021 12:16 (four years ago)

I don't remember if they're from the show or the movies but I can't watch the fishhook or paper cut sketches

― Vinnie, Thursday, 22 July 2021 13:05 (four years ago)

yeah the paper cut bit is by far the most upsetting one for me, have never been able to watch it.

thats interesting about your kids josh. never thought of it that way but i guess that raw skate video clip look that felt so fresh and exciting at the time (no host, no sets, not plot, no point) is the dominant format of online video now & must not look special at all to young eyes.

― nobody like my rap (One Eye Open), Thursday, 22 July 2021 13:23 (four years ago)

first time I saw the first movie was in high school with like 15 other people, literally no one could watch the papercut scene. its annoying but I guess that's part of their thing, it's not Jackass if they can't freak out the entire audience

― frogbs, Thursday, 22 July 2021 13:53 (four years ago)

Mentioned before, but a hunk of the Jackass crew was maybe two years younger than me at my high school. Lots of the show and movies feature destruction of/at sites in and around my home town. Couple of the jackasses bullied my younger sister so bad (I was gone by then, iirc) she left school early.

― Josh in Chicago, Thursday, 22 July 2021 13:59 (four years ago)

first time I saw the first movie was in high school with like 15 other people, literally no one could watch the papercut scene.

Because it's a lot more relatable than some of the other stuff. Croquet ball in the nuts? A rare experience. Savage paper cut from a manila envelope? We've all felt that pain.

I am so excited for this movie. Hope Wee Man gets a decent amount of screen time. I rewatched two of these recently and honestly I think my favourite scene was him not getting that the chair was electric and that he was convinced they had a secret card throwing machine.

I'm all in, but why so many archive clips in the trailer? I think I read that there would be archive Bam, to get around the bad blood, but seemed like a lot of old stuff I recognized in there, too.

― uploading this content requires perseveration (sic), Monday, 27 April 2026 17:25 (one month ago)

tangentially related to this revive, also bcuz i don't know where to post about this on ILX -- did anyone see the movie The Piano Accident (2025) starring Adèle Exarchopoulos? not to give away too much but the lead character and conceit of the film is inspired by 'jackass' -- and i mean that literally, in flashbacks we see the lead as a young girl watching 'jackass' episodes w/ her father. it's more of a satire of mr. beast core but also touches on something real about 'jackass' culture that i haven't seen woven into the plot of a fictional film, great movie and Adéle is incredible, i think johnny knoxville would be proud
