BLEEDING HEART CONSERVATIVES: The Daily Standard has published my review of Jackass 2, a film of profound signifiance.

The WaPo film critic actually wrote that there is no "significant moral difference" between the Jackass crew and "dedicated ballerinas who damage their feet in the highfalutin interests of art." Hmmm. I'm not so sure about that. But what I can say for sure is that ballerina won't make you laugh so hard that your stomach hurts.

Yes, hello there, I read your article which was also posted on the weekly standard. I sort of disagree with your take...more than anything, the film is a hedonistic celebration of gay culture.
 
did you actually use the term 'reproductive organ'?


Ye Gods
 
Anon, I agree that Jackass' obsession with the male anatomy seems fairly homoerotic, but I would hardly call the film a celebration of gay culture. Its more like ballplayers who constantly scratch their packages and pat each other on the behind.
 
What a ridiculous and pointless article.
