Sarah Silverman’s “Magic” Trailer

Filed Under Movies

The South by Southwest festival has put up a trailer for a documentary about Sarah Silverman's stand-up show “Jesus is Magic.” (click on the low bandwidth version, the high doesn't seem to work at all). I saw the show a couple of years ago, but from the short bits shown none of stand-up looks new. But this looks to be more than just a concert film with sketches and songs interspersed throughout, almost like a TV show development execs should have been begging her to make but probably couldn't, since the trailer has at least two jokes that could cause a “chink” controversy, 'cept with a different ethnic group. Like “Aristocrats,” I'm hoping this film gets enough distribution to be an underground hit.

Letterman Intern has already learned the most important lession: "To try as hard as you can, because there are 50 people ready to take your spot at the drop of a hat." (Washington Post)

SNL writer Andrew Steele joins Funny or Die as Creative Director. The Paris Hilton video is nice, but maybe he'll help them figure out how to get Cracked magazine's traffic.

Megan Ganz of the Onion: "I think you get to a certain level of comedy sophistication and you come full circle. Then the only thing that makes you laugh anymore is when someone shoots a bean out of their nose." (The Apiary)

Kevin Smith Gets an "R" for Zack and Miri Make a Porno. Third time he's talked the MPAA into giving one of his comedies a lower rating. Must be a great debater.

World's oldest joke discovered. And it's "toilet humor" but of the indecipherable, "I guess you had to be in Sumeria" kind.
