what is this

what's going on

it's a 2 minute comedy bit turned into a 2 hour movie



Is he using Netflix money and his Seinfeld "fuck you" money to do whatever he wants

Is this the followup from Bee Movie

Will we see one million "Unfrosted but" (it keeps getting faster/every pronoun is replaced by cereal) Youtube videos

What is thisssssss

I never thought Jerry Seinfeld was funny. I didn’t think his standup was funny. I didn’t think his own sitcom was funny. I don’t even think he’s in the top five for self-deprecating Jewish comics if we want to break down categories of comedians by “style”. Why anyone gives a shit what he thinks about the left ruining comedy or anyone ruining comedy for that fact is beyond me.

In closing: I always thought he sucked. This is no different.

I love Seinfeld (the show). Ive seen his stand up, at least older stuff and liked it

I found the left ruining comedy thing hilarious, has he never seen What we Do in teh Shadow, It's Always Sunny, or the show he even made a cameo in Curb Your Enthusiasm?

Well, I know Curb Your Enthusiasm is a Larry David series, so that would explain his cameo in that. He wouldn’t have much of a career to begin with without Larry David, he’d probably still be running around the east coast comedy club circuit. As far as the other shows… I’ll catch some flak for this, but I’ve only seen a handful of episodes of It’s Always Sunny, but I’ve spent enough time around Philadelphians in my life to be content with just that basic knowledge of the show. It’s too loud and fast-paced for me otherwise, which is why I gave it a few chances… I assumed “every episode couldn’t possibly be rapid-fire dialogue…” and I was very, very wrong.

I bring up Curb more to his "left is canceling humor" stuff

Which is a valid point, but as someone who’s not really on either side when it comes to comedy… both the left and right suck at it, if I’m being honest. Both are incredibly predictable when it comes to the material and execution, and both get incredibly butthurt when called on either material or execution. I’ve found myself enjoying the darker comedy that has come from the new era of politically correctness, though. There’s nothing like watching a physically disabled comedian roast an entire room of people knowing that he can fire back “oh, I’m a cripple, go ahead, be the guy that shits on a cripple” bit. It’s predictable in a way that pokes fun at the overly PC, and serves as a good reminder that if we can’t laugh at ourselves, we’ve got no business laughing at each other.
