Description: Due to some random haggard circumstances, Volume 1 of the Jackass TV series isn't coming out anytime soon. But in the meantime here's Volume 2. Volume two of the Jackass series contains a random, haggard selection of segments and bits that aired on our crappy little television show. Remarkable moments in this half-ass collection include Chris Pontius masquerading as an American werewolf and creating panic in the streets of London, Johnny Knoxville sticking his arm right up a cow's butt, Bam Margera and Brandon Dicamillo taking the hockey gloves off and brawling in the middle of a café, Ehren McGhehey falling flat on his pink face while skateboarding blindfolded, and a bunch of other absurd stunts, pranks and queer misbehavior from our bumbling cat and crew of idiots.
Amazon.com: When Andy Warhol made his prophetic comment about fame, he could not possibly have anticipated the lengths some would go to get their 15 minutes. Consider Johnny Knoxville and his posse of merry pranksters. These are America's funniest home videos, a generous and representative sampling of segments from the notorious MTV series Jackass, which capture men behaving very badly, and very stupidly. Knoxville and company are mostly content to do injury to themselves and each other (their poor and battered groins alone must be eligible for combat pay). Other segments have a demented Candid Camera quality. In one, Chris Pontius dons a werewolf suit and runs amok through London. In another, two hockey players continue their "fight" inside a store. Throwaway bits, such as the popping of a blackhead, cleanse the palate between stunts. As one observer notes: "You'd have to be an idiot to try this." Watching this, however, is another matter. And by the way, there is no volume 1; go figure. --Donald Liebenson
Not a buy for me I loved jackass when it was popular but being these volumes is kinda stupid, ive watched these dvds once or twice and thats it. It wasn't worth it for me.
It'd be better if they could use the f word. Jackass is what it is. Funny stupid stunts where someone always gets hurt. MTV took Bam Margera's CKYs and Big Brother's skate videos and turned it into mainstream chaos. It is great exposure for Bam, Johnny Knoxville, Steve-o, Random Hero and the rest of the gang. The stunts and pranks are all real. And all are really funny. This is a good DVD. The only downer is the censorship. It is the exact same as the TV show. Bleeped curse words and fuzzed out nudity. All the crazy stuff they don'y show on TV, they don't show on here either. It is still worth it. If you want movies with real crazy funny stuff that will leave you shocked and in stiches check out CKY 1-4. And Big Brother's Poop.
Laugh out loud! If you liked the movie, you will like this (albeit tuned down) version i asume is clips from the TV show. No cursing or nudity like the movie, but so what. It's funny anyhow. Many awesome scenes. Be warned however, volume 3 stank. Stick to volume 2
Cringe-Tacular! Finally, Jackass has come out on DVD. Although there is no Vol. 1 right now, (I don't even know if there really is a Vol. 1 or if it's just supposed to be a joke), Vol. 2 is still a great collection of some of the most outrageous, disgusting, shocking, and disturbing moments from the very popular TV show. Join Johnny Knoxville and his gang of misfits as they do some of the most idiotic things ever to be caught on tape. (But it's hilarious!)
With this collection you'll see stuff like this: The cup test, plunger wake up, the worm trick, bucket cars, red wagon, bikini wax, ice blocking, lawn trap, human bulls-eye, punt return, and many, many more wackiness and chaos.
The DVD has very few special features, but that's okay. All I wanted was the show itself. The features included are a trivia game, photo gallery, and cast bios. Yes, the swears and bleeped out and nude people are blurred out. (Funny how they will censor the swearing from the guys themselves when the music playing in the background is uncensored. Interesting.)
You'll laugh, you'll cringe.... you'll want to hurl after seeing some of the things you will witness. (One I couldn't even watch. I had to skip it. Try to figure out which one it is when you watch it.) "Jackass: Volume 2" is Jackass at its best.
Kids, don't try this at home. I'm sick of all the parents and news complaining about the show because some stupid and brainless moron decided to reenact some of the stunts. Watch it, don't live it. Okay? Okay.
Don't Expect Vol. 1 Anytime Soon...but here's 2 & 3... Jackass should win a Grammy for best TV show of the year. After seeing the movie twice, I've started watching the show (which I didn't before), and because I missed the first few seasons, this is a good way to catch some glinces of them. Not as good as the movie, but entertaining at least. GET IT!!!
