The Aristocrats

Last night me and Cin went and saw The Aristocrats. This is a documentary about the "insider" comedian joke of the same name. Read more about the joke itself here. The movie was really raunchy and really funny, but not as funny as it could be. There was definatly alot more talking about the joke (and other things) than telling of the joke itself. Both me and Cin liked alot of the other, similar, jokes that the many comedians all told. What's interesting is the crowd response to those jokes. We were in the smallest of all theatres at the Anundel Mills Muvico - it had a capacity of 101 seats and maybe a third of them were filled. Everyone laughed at many of the jokes, the more vulgar they were. Noone really laughed at the more racial jokes. They even discussed that in the movie - that racial jokes are now the older sexual jokes - they still make comedians nervous to tell them. Interesting. All-in-all, this was a funny movie. My score => 7/10. BTW, Cartman from South Park had the best telling of the joke - we think largely because of the delivery and Kyle's interruptions.
