More on the issue of slapping cheeks

E3. Come and gone. Did anyone care? I don’t think so. E3 has always been a bit of a farce, but to strip it of the only thing separating it from a press conference makes it nothing more than a big hyped press conference. I give it two more years tops before they actually notice that and pack it up.
Anyway, the reason I’m blogging about this is because of the personified nail in the coffin that was apparently the “comedian” for the show: Jamie Kennedy. I strongly suggest you go take a look at this video of him at E3. After every single (pathetic 1997 stoner teenager) joke he had to point out a single person in the audience who found it funny, it was that awful. All his responses to heckles were poor allusions to or the word for word stating of “um, you all never leave your bedrooms, nerds’. You’re not in ‘Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back’ your entire life, Jamie.

This sucks.

    “Uh….video games….where my JOKES?”

    Tough gig, BUT…being a dick about *everything* will not help you.

    Anyone who allows themselves to get topped by, “Aren’t you doing that ALREADY”…NO POINTS.

  2. Paul:

    Actually, I take back any modicum of sympathy I had for that guy when I found out he did The Jamie Kennedy Experiment, which is the worst fucking show ever.

    Admittedly, that didn’t take too much detective work, given that he lent his name to the title. It’s late; I’m tired.

    That caused me to click on this – http://youtube.com/watch?v=a5IbeqLhi7Q&mode=related&search=

    Tom Green is old, fat and a bit tired now.

    It happens to the best of us, but really, zaniness doesn’t work in that context.

    Oh, and then WORST SKIT EVER:

    But at least he can still drop some mad skillz:

    “You watch the OC, because you’re a pussy / I hit you with 500 tonnes of George Bushie…”

    Quite.

    Also, this was his old rap group (really). Anyone who rhymes thespian/pedestrian/equestrian/Lando Calarissian…rules.

    Actually, basically, best song ever.

  5. malakian:

    hah, equestrian…Lord above.

    Paul loves the O.R.

  6. Paul:

    Flip women over like a pancake

  7. malakian:

    “I lay more chicks than mother goose.”

    Best sentence EVER.

  8. Paul:

    I’m still going for the pancake one. And he says something about Polydent…I believe he rhymes it with “content”. Wow.

    I watched Freddy Got Fingered again last night – I’ve been trying to get Ian to watch it but he’s not sure he can deal with it. He’s probably right.

    Tom Green’s DVD commentary is pretty amazing. Over the end credits he starts screaming “MOMMY! MOMMY!” …when he gets bored during the movie, he just starts reciting all the dialogue from the scene you’re watching in a stupid voice.

    He also makes the point, which I’ve long maintained, that the movie is parodying gross-out humour rather than trying to embody it. Anyway, it’s probably hard to take that seriously coming from a man who is then depicted crawling down a conveyer belt on his hands shrieking, “YOU CAN’T HURT ME! NOT WITH MY CHEESE HELMET!”

    Hah, all I remember from that film is a disgusting reattatched umbilical cord. Next time I’m in DSL we should force Ian to watch or at least absorb the film. It’s a learning experience, in a way.
