hey fuck you i'm colorblind and i went to art school :( i made this movie too

This movie won an Oscar you philistines.

I don't understand the analogy, but I'm pretty sure that being colorblind would not be a hindrance to doing a paint by numbers.

Because it's BY NUMBERS, you see.

Little Miss Sunshine did this joke a quadrillion times better, as well as colorblind jokes.

that movie really bummed me out because i realized i actually really can't become a pilot. I really don't think that's fair because we make good snipers. Also, we have sharper spatial intelligence because we are ignorant of distracting color patterns. I could pilot a fucking plane. I bet it's just cause the stupid control panels are all red and green. BLUE AND RED, MORONS

right. and the colors correspond to numbers, so....if you can't distinguish colors the numbers are meaningless.

anyway here is the answer key:

setup: child beauty pageants coerce children to behave like sexualized adults.

punchline: child beauty pageants coerce children to behave like sexualized adults.

the only humor here would be having the adults nonplussed by the baby stripper, or intimidated, but what is important here is that knoxville remind us all that he is SHOCKING and TRANSGRESSIVE, even though even at his peak, he was only shocking and transgressive to the most sheltered and privledged mainstream audience, even though real child beauty pageants ( the toddler doing 'like a prayer' in a cone bra) are far more sexual and shocking.

fucking YAWN.

:) You had me at 4:45. This looks charming. I kind of ignored it because of the "Jackass Presents.." and I think my association with Grandma's Boy (!?) Now I get the "Jackass Presents" part.. an entire Hidden Camera road movie is pretty fucking genius, even if Borat and the rest kind of covered that ground. I'll check it out.

I don't really get the Christopher Guest comparison: As far as I know, everyone in those movies is in on the joke, like TPB it just looks very real. From what I can ascertain here (and correct me if I'm wrong) very few people are in on it (or are but find out later), which makes a Sasha Baron Coen comparison more appropriate. I liked both those films but deep down they lacked heart, substituting a story for a bunch of "oh no they DIDN'T" moments from two characters whose segments on the show were only five minutes. From what I can see here, this one does.

Also it says it lost to Dallas Buyers Club for Hairstyle and Makeup

Well, that's not the way I remember it. They don't TELL you what the colors are. They sell you a bunch of little jars of paint with the number stamped on the jar.

Is it obvious that I didn't watch the whole clip?

There is a certain skill to painting by numbers. A presbyterian church on the South side of Binghamton still has a paint by number picture of Jesus surrounded by children that was painted by my Great Grandfather, no later than the 1950s. It's actually very nice.

Great use of that song.

"Because it's BY NUMBERS, you see."

Everybody knows grandpa is dyscalculic. Being colorblind just means he can't check his work.

Reply to buns.

Goddammit, I'll figure out how the reply system works one day.

Five stars purely for upsetting the screwed up sensibilities of terrible pageant mothers.
