[Scholar]

Anybody else watching this tonight?

Starts at 10 PM PST on Comedy Central.

[CeltsGarlic]

Oh damn sure I will. I forgot about it. Super thanks man!

future rep.

[L.Kizzle]

Who the fck is James Franco? Been seeing adds on this the past week or so.

[DonDadda59]

Who the fck is James Franco?

Long lost Wayans cousin.

These roasts haven't been funny since Flavor Flav's.

[bagelred]

Who the fck is James Franco? Been seeing adds on this the past week or so.

He's Dave Franco's older brother.

[DuMa]

franco isnt nearly old enough or have achieved enough to be roasted imho.

[bdreason]

Definitely going to watch thanks for the heads up.

[L.Kizzle]

Long lost Wayans cousin.

These roasts haven't been funny since Flavor Flav's.
2006, that was along time ago.

[L.Kizzle]

Exactly.


You couldn't pay me to watch this shit.
One reason they are not funny, is because they usually don't even have comics. Give me 8 comics, not 2 comics and a bunch of random people.

[bdreason]

Long lost Wayans cousin.

Charlie Sheen was funny.

[CeltsGarlic]

lol Im laughing all the time :lol

and im not ashamed to admit it.
kroll is my guy

[CeltsGarlic]

[HarryCallahan]

dvring it.. I wish Patrice and Greg Giraldo would be there.


kroll is my guy

:rockon:

[CeltsGarlic]

dvring it.. I wish Patrice and Greg Giraldo would be there.



:rockon:

Sure, Greg was very funny.. Patrice was also good.

You watch the league? Its good, I recommend.

[Scholar]

Yeah, I miss Greg Giraldo.

Anyway, I can't understand how someone doesn't know who James Franco is, but does know who Lil B is. WTF? :facepalm

[HarryCallahan]

Sure, Greg was very funny.. Patrice was also good.

You watch the league? Its good, I recommend.

I've seen the first two seasons, good stuff.

[CeltsGarlic]

I've seen the first two seasons, good stuff.

Catch up last 2-3 ep of 4th season. Hilarious.
You wont regret. Im telling you. Promise you will cause they are very very very funny.

[CeltsGarlic]

Lol, Blake Griffin commercial with Lithuania... How about that? :lol

[CeltsGarlic]

Ross was good :lol

Lol at "you and annie had a chemistry of trayvon and zimmerman :lol

[bdreason]

Funny so far.

[Lakers Legend#32]

Remember the Asian guy's duck in Ted was named James Franco.

[lefthook00]

Why was Aziz getting the biggest applause?

[Scholar]

This roast is hilarious. I don't know if it's because I'm drunk, but this is the best roast I've ever seen on Comedy Central.

[CarlosBoozer]

Can't believe I'm missing this :(

[Mamba]

Samberg made me laugh the most.

[DuMa]

It was funny... another 1.5 hrs of chuckling even though its just a fraternity of jews trashing each other.

Only part that didnt seem funny to me at first was Samberg, then i realized he was just paroding being a funny roaster. I laughed at a few parts but I'd probably have to watch it again to understand it fully. It was still weird after i realized it though.

[Scholar]

DeAndre Jordan was in the crowd, sitting with some white woman who looked like she was easily in her late 30's/early 40's, even with make-up on.

[tomtucker]

it was really live ? they used to censor out some bits before airing these roasts a few days later..........now they showed it live, pretty weird right ?

[Scholar]

James Franco was the least funny guy there.

[DuMa]

it was really live ? they used to censor out some bits before airing these roasts a few days later..........now they showed it live, pretty weird right ?

No it was filmed a week ago. These roasts are never live. they need to be edited in a way so that the camera pans to the person the roaster is currently roasting.

[tomtucker]

okay, thanks, it just that everywhere it said : WATCH LIVE: Comedy Central's Roast of James Franco......and "live stream!" and so on........pretty false then

[Levity]

did andy sandbergs set remind anyone of a less funny version of norm macdonalds roast(cant remember who he roasted)

overall, this roast was really funny. loved seeing actually friends going at it. and loved seeing aziz get butthurt about the indian and kanye jokes.

[ZeN]

Bill Hader killed it.

[HardwoodLegend]

franco isnt nearly old enough or have achieved enough to be roasted imho.

He's gotten quite a few headlines though and for some wildly diverse behavior/decisions, so he made for a good roast subject.

I wish his move to go on Kickstarter to raise funds for his Palo Alto film had been brought up though.

Very entertaining piece nonetheless.

[magic chiongson]

Bill Hader killed it.

Do you honestly think he doesn't know who he is?

[B-Low]

Do you honestly think he doesn't know who he is?

If it wasn't Kizzle I'd call BS. But I think Kizzle is honestly unaware that there's such a thing as white people. He thinks history was just plagued by a strangely high amount of vitiligo outbreaks

[L.Kizzle]

Do you honestly think he doesn't know who he is?
Nope, don't know, I've seen like 10 minutes of Pineapple Express.

Never seen any of those other movies B-Low listed.

Nope.

I'm just gonna bank on the fact that with all the threads on here about movies, you're bound to have posted in a semi James Franco related topic. Not to mention, you're probably in the 25-30 year old bracket, so you more than likely know who he is. Add in the fact you try really hard to be different on here, and it fits in perfectly that you actually do know who James Franco is.

[CeltsGarlic]

Dude, even me, stupid euro, knew some stuff about James Franco.. You cant be serious.

[plowking]

Dude, even me, stupid euro, knew some stuff about James Franco.. You cant be serious.

Hes not. Its his shtick. Dude tries too hard.

[DonDadda59]

franco isnt nearly old enough or have achieved enough to be roasted imho.

I agree, moreso on the age thing. He's accomplished plenty but too young to be roasted. The idea is to do a sort of comical retrospective on someone's entire body of work when they are basically has-beens. Franco is in his prime right now, just did a dozen+ movies this year alone, one being a $100 million grossing comedy and another being a 1/2 billion grossing Wizard of Oz prequel.

Not really much material to rag on him with. Guy is at the height of his powers and popularity and still going strong. That's why they told the same lame 'Franco is gay' or 'Franco wasn't such a great Oscars host' jokes a million times. Hard to actually roast a guy in his prime.

Gotta wait until they're old, washed up, and been through a few epic drug binges and tabloid controversies.

[2013 Lakers]

Is he the youngest person to ever be roasted on CC?

I wonder who the second youngest was. Sheen? Saget? Pretty big jump in age.

Edit: forgot about Pam Anderson. Roasted at like 38.

yes i mostly agree. i do wish comedy central did more of these roasts, but the candidates gotta be old and nearly retired. their entire body of work of why theyre famous has to be judged. otherwise the jokes will have no variety or the roasting statements have no shock and awe. Franco's roast was funny but it was severely missing the variety and the shock/awe. It was more about a bunch of jewish friends getting high or drunk and talking about each other, which probably happens once a week for them anyway.

old guys who are very secure with their legacy and wont give a shit about a couple of roasters digging up shit from the past saying shock and awe stuff.

Guys like Shaq, Jordan would be prime candidates to be roasted. I remember watching Wilt's roast on youtube. It was classic. its just a model of how a roast should be done.

Theres so many other great candidates too. Stars like Mel Gibson, or Sean Connery too.

You are right there were to many of his friends who probably did not want to be to insultihng they needed more comics someone like Anthony Jeselnik who is not afraid to go to far.

[JEFFERSON MONEY]

Solid.

Another addition.

So far I'd rank

Norm Macdonald - Bob Saget NUMBER 1.
then
Jeff Ross - Emmit Smith
Gilbert Gotfried - Roseannne
and the Brady Bunch Girl - Larry the Cable Guy
Snoop - Donald Trump
Patrice - Charlie Sheen

as the top 5.

It'd be awfully nice to have these venomous exchanges in the real world .

[rezznor]

Freaks and Geeks?
Oz the Great and Powerful?
Spring Breakers?
Pineapple Express?
127 Hours?
This is the End?
Planet of the Apes?
apparently, he has never seen a movie unless it was featured on BET or produced by a Wayans.

[OldSkoolball#52]

Came into this thread because I saw Jefferson Money made the last post, wanted to see what his azz done said. But now I gotta stand in solidarity with Kizzle.


I am very peripherally aware of who James Franco is primarily through hearing him mentioned in news and entertainment headlines. I realize he is a friend of the most over-rated, over-credited, over-everything 'comedian' in world history, Seth Rogen. They do movies together and blah blah, Jonah Hill is fat ZOMG FUNNY FUNNNYYYYYYY.

I've never seen any of the Spidersmans or Pineapple Express. I watched Murder on the Orient Express the other day which is a different and superior movie, but that's irrelevant. Sorry I have taste. Sorry L. Kizzle has taste as well. We don't even have the same exact taste but I can vouch for the fact that he doesn't include trendy pop crap on his radar. He's a dude that loves to dig through the crates and find gems, just like I am. He put me on to dudes like Jackie Wilson and Joe Tex in the music arena, and for that I am extremely grateful. Nobody else on this site ever gave me an entertainment suggestion that ended up worth a damn. His taste in music and comedy is a bit more "black-centric" than mine but let's face it, historically blacks have done the best music and comedy. So can't really fault him for that. My point is that if I really do BARELY know who james franco is, it's very possible Kizzle doesn't. And it's not because we're trying harder than "plowking" its because we have taste that exceeds PLOWKINGS by a factor of 10 to the 5,000th


James Franco appeals to the same audience of trend-chasing posers who like to raise funds for Democratic politicians, talk about how stupid George Bush is, act pretentious about politics and social issues, then if you actually probe them for real opinions and thoughts of substance, they have absolutely none. It's a total hipster pose-fest of people trying to fit in. Sorry but the crowd of nerds that Franco runs with is not funny, and all these excerpts I've read in the last 5 years about how James Franco is involved in his own excessively tedious "artsy fartsy" projects gives me enough assurance to confidently guarantee he is not funny and is a vastly overrated douche.


edit: I'm speaking in generalities of course, there could be some reasonable people who happen to like Franco. But everyone knows exactly what crowd Im talking about that makes up his general supporters.

[rufuspaul]

Sounds like you're a little more than peripherally aware.

Andy Samberg...didn't get any of his joke. What was that about.

I agree. In all honesty, it was quite a transformation and a great performance.

[bdreason]

Andy Samberg...didn't get any of his joke. What was that about.


He was tanking on purpose. Roasting himself. I didn't think it was funny either.

[alenleomessi]

tbh none of this jokes were as insulting as some of the previous roasts on donald trump or pamela anderson for example... but franco is too nice to be roasted i guess

[tomtucker]

when do you think we can see it uncensored ?

[Scholar]

Andy Samberg...didn't get any of his joke. What was that about.

He was garbage. I don't know why people found him so funny. His jokes were just, "Hey, I'm not going to actually roast anyone! You have hair that's curly! Ooh! Roasted!" Not even remotely funny.

I'll admit I laughed at his first joke, which was so forgettable that I can't even recall what it was, but it was because I thought he was choking. Then I realized within a few seconds it was all a part of his act... :facepalm

yeah his was the worst of the bunch, followed by Franco himself. This was actually pretty tame compared to past roasts. Pam Anderson's was brutal

[CeltsGarlic]

andy was pretty bad. I did smile and cringe but it was not that good. I liked when he said "jesus" couple times after some very inappropriate joke by that chick. It was funny. I dont remember the joke but I was laughing.

[joe]

James Franco was amazing in Freaks and Geeks. I don't think I've seen him in anything else.

[Levity]

was it when she called Bill Hader the new phil hartman, and said she hopes he ends up the same way? Cause i remember someone having an "Oh Shit" reaction. it might have been hader though.

God damn you talk too much. Stop talking so much


But I actually agree with DuMa. I don't think Franco was a good roast choice. That should be reserved either for legends who are so respected that it's nice to see people make fun of them for once, or for guys who are easy to make fun of that people wanna see get blasted (Flava Flav, Saget, Pam, Sheen)

Franco's always seemed like a cool, laid back guy. Not dorky, not really weird, not hideous, not a trainwreck socially...so it was just a weird choice IMO.

[2013 Lakers]

Yeah, Natasha had a couple harsh jokes.

Something about Andy Samberg with Lorne Michaels in an open casket funeral, and one about hoping Bill Hader will be the Phil Hartman of this generation.

[HardwoodLegend]

was it when she called Bill Hader the new phil hartman, and said she hopes he ends up the same way? Cause i remember someone having an "Oh Shit" reaction. it might have been hader though.

The joke where the camera showed Andy clearly saying "Jesus" was when Natasha said something like, "I can't wait for you to play your acoustic version of 'Dick in a Box' at Lorne Michaels' open casket funeral". I think there was another moment, but that's the one I vividly remember.

I thought Andy was funny. He decided to portray the character of awkward guy who doesn't know how to roast, and it made for a funny performance in itself especially with his nervous, unsure mannerisms.

[OldSkoolball#52]

God damn you talk too much. Stop talking so much

Wow... never thought Id be saying that to someone like you.

A lot of people out there would like to see Franco get roasted. He's constantly ridiculed on-line for being pretentious, attention-whorish and weird.

The problem was the roasters didn't focus enough on this aspect. There was plenty of material there already that made minor headlines, but they either decided they wanted to be tame or not make too obscure of references that the general populace may not get for the most part.

[rezznor]

Yeah, Natasha had a couple harsh jokes.

said he would be performing dick in a box (i guess inferring that Lorne is an asshole?) :oldlol:

never heard of that chick before but she had some of the best lines.

[HardwoodLegend]

Chelsea Lately on E! is a good show to watch for largely unknown comics. Natasha Leggero has ripped it up on the roundtable on that show quite a few times.

"Acting, directing, producing, writing, painting... is there anything you can do?"

If memory serves, she was the only roaster who called out Franco for having no talent. That's another thing Franco gets ridiculed for on the net and could have provided material if his friends wanted to take it on. Being a "talentless jack-off of all trades, and definitely a master of none". I personally think he has talent, but he has sleepwalked and been lackadaisical with many of his roles.

[NuggetsFan]

I found this pretty funny. What are some other good roasts? Only seen the Sheen/Pamela Anderson one's and some youtube clips of others.

Holy shit you're a f@ggot.

We just watch his movies. The fact that you can make an analysis like that from someone watching mainstream movies tells me you're a try hard. You basically said nothing with that post.

Run along fcuk boi.

He's constantly ranting about how "liberals" are bitter towards "successful conservatives who picked on them in high school". It's staggering the amount of text he's put forth repeating this. Seems like he has more pent-up issues than anyone else ever would.

[L.Kizzle]

I'm pretty sure I never posted in one of the movie threads.

Not sure why it's hard to believe I have no clue who homie is. If I was at Wal-Mart, and he was ringing me up, I wouldn't know it's him. Is he someone I'm supposed to know? It's not like he's Brad Pitt level, hell is he even Seth Rogan level?

I just searched James Franco in the ISH search box, and a total of three James Franco topics have been started in the 7 years of ISH's History ... Besides this one, the other two were from 2011 ...

[no pun intended]

I found this pretty funny. What are some other good roasts? Only seen the Sheen/Pamela Anderson one's and some youtube clips of others.
Trump roast was pretty good.

[HardwoodLegend]

Kizzle, do you know who Joseph Gordon-Levitt is?

Maybe you would know Franco instead if Franco didn't turn down 'Inception' to make '127 Hours'. Kind of hard to argue with a choice that got him an Oscar nomination, but his movie star status would have been a little bit higher.

He does kind of hover between the B and B+ List of celebrity.

[L.Kizzle]

Kizzle, do you know who Joseph Gordon-Levitt is?
No.

[HardwoodLegend]

No.

What was the last movie you streamed? What was the last movie you saw in theatres?

These dudes have been in some quality works of cinema, and OldSkoolBall is claiming you two have some sort of elevated sophisticated taste. Wayans Comedy Tour, :lol .

I've never streamed a movie. Last movie I seen in theaters, took a chick to see Colombina or whatever it was called. I don't really do goin to movies.

What's wrong with the Wayans, this Franco character wish he was a legend like them.

I'm sure Franco is happy with his Oscar nomination and getting honored with one of these:

[EricGordon23]

I know they wanted his friends but for it to be a classic roast they need people like amy schumer and anthony jesilnek. They like jeff ross go for the kill.

[Scholar]

Of course Kizzle doesn't know who Franco is. Unless it's a black dude who drops the "n"-word every few lines in a rap song, Kizzle doesn't know shit about the person. I wouldn't be surprised if this guy couldn't name the president we had before Obama.


We had a president BEFORE Obama?!

[Scholar]

I bet Kizzle is one of those black dudes who think its racist when non-blacks don't know many black entertainers/politicians/whatever, but it's perfectly fine for him to completely ignore the fact that there are non-black entertainers/politicians/people in general.

[HardwoodLegend]

Kizzle has a white dude's taste in women and black entertainment.

Is that a thing? Something tells me you haven't met an actual Black person.

[OldSkoolball#52]

What was the last movie you streamed? What was the last movie you saw in theatres?

These dudes have been in some quality works of cinema, and OldSkoolBall is claiming you two have some sort of elevated sophisticated taste. Wayans Comedy Tour, :lol .


Didn't say that anything either of us may like is automatically superior to whatever you like, altho speaking for myself personally it almost unambiguously is.


I just saw clowns like you and plowking giving kizzle shit for not knowing about james franco, and I wanted to point out that he aint the only one and there's nothing wrong or "trying too hard" about it. I've only ever heard Franco talked about, never seen his movies but I know which ones they are and believe me Pineapple Xpress with Seth Rogan and "The Green Hornet" are flicks that i am in fact proud NOT to have seen. I'm reading about him now on wiki and he seems alright, I could see myself doing some of the 'unusual' things for a movie star that he does if I were in his position, i.e. getting an array of degrees and pursuing non traditional film projects.

I guess its more about the fact he does so much work with seth rogen and judd appatow, among others, who are just AWFUL that ive never taken notice of the guy or cared what he's done. maybe he's a good actor, but none of the movies hes apparently known for are any good.


Point is, maybe he's a diamond hidden in the plate of feces hollywood is perennially serving up. All i'm saying is, unlike plowking and hardwood legend, when someone sticks a plate of feces on the table right in front of me, i'm the type who will push it away and prefer to go look elsewhere for food. these two bozos, and most americans, just dig right in.

Knew you were a fcuk boi.
Kizzle tries too hard not just here, but in most threads. You on the other hand are just a f@g.
So full of yourself and pretentious.

You're proud of yourself for not seeing certain movies? Fkn lol. Pride yourself on something a little more relevant and worthy. You're life must be sad.

The fact you drew so much from throwaway comments shows how much of a douche you are.

[Scholar]

My best friend is a black dude. I grew up in a poor neighborhood. I've interacted with black people throughout my life.

I'm not about to turn this into a race thread, though. I just wanted to get my piece out on Kizzle. That's it. Let's try to keep it about the roast, unless someone else has thoughts on Kizzle. :D

[OldSkoolball#52]

Talk about trying too hard.

Your avatar and phony, forced hood vernacular give you away. Stop trying so hard on the net bro. You aint Eazy E, or whover that is in the picture, and you never call anyone a "fcuk boi" in real life. You watch Jonah Hill movies and pin up posters of Lebron in the bedroom of your parents house, fukc boi.

Don't use words on the internet you never use in real life. It screams out 'trying too hard'

Guarantee you my film and music collection are far more eclectic and artistically rich than yours.

Your taste palette is definitely limited. I can already tell by your defensive nature, the way you formulate thoughts and pass judgments about certain things. Why are you always en garde, btw? Grew up in a tumultuous household where you had to fight for everything? If so, condolences. I wouldn't make fun of that the way you do.

Sorry but no, that's not how I grew up at all.

My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink, he would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Some times he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy, the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical, summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds, pretty standard really. At the age of 12 I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen, a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum, it's breathtaking.

I suggest you try it.

Dammit Starface! I remember reading that years ago but I can't remember the source. Woody Allen?

No... That's really how I grew up :confusedshrug:

Dr. Evil from Austin Powers

[rufuspaul]

Dr. Evil from Austin Powers


:oldlol: I was close wasn't I?

[OldSkoolball#52]

:oldlol: I was close wasn't I?

Austin Powers was a really good trilogy , and that's the thing people are getting twisted about it. Think I'm tryin to act like I'm too good for any modern day pop culture or slapstick comedy or whatever. That's not the case at all. I love the Austin Powers movies. I think Jack Black is funny. I think Ben Stiller is funny. Some of Will Ferrell's earlier movies were funny. My favorite comedian is Jim Carrey.


But Seth Rogen is not even comedy. I mean none of his stuff is funny at all. It's depressing that people out there think this guy is the pinnacle of comedy. I mean between him and Jonah Hill and Judd Appatow and this whole "crew" it's a true lowpoint in the history of comedy. And what's crazy is they're SO popular! So when I chastise people for liking that shit, then yes I am being somewhat sanctimonious about it. But only because I'm trying to get people to see how awful their standards are in the hopes they'll start asking for more from Hollywood. Same with that VMA stuff. I wish people wouldn't watch that garbage. It's horrendous. There is so much good stuff out there past and present you can find on Youtube. Make the networks EARN your attention. Don't just give it to them mindlessly. Don't sit in front of the TV or go to the movie theater REGARDLESS of what's being put on it. Have a little pride in what stimulates you for god sake.

[SCREWstonRockets]

I like this crew but they need to go back to having comedians. Sure the may not be famous but man, they do the best jokes. And they do a true form of roasting.

Not that this was bad, it was enjoyable.

[L.Kizzle]

plowking, yo got me.

Not only do I know who James Franco is, he just so happens to be my favorite actor. I rarely go to movie theaters, but I make it a must when a James Franco film hits the big screen. I also own 12 James Franco blu-ray disc, and I don;t even have a blu-ray player. That's how much I live James Franco.

[HarryCallahan]

I finally got around to watching this, here are some thoughts:

-Good selection of roasters.
-I actually find two female comics attractive, who knew?
-Samberg is terrible, that bit wasn't funny.
-Bill Hader is the most talented person on that stage
-Two funniest jokes go to Natasha Leggero; Acoustic version of "Dick in a box" to be played at Lorne Michaels funeral & Bill Hader is this generations Phil Hartman..... Hopefully.


Probably my favourite CC roast so far.
