SHOW ME WILL MCBRIDE TUMBLR MOVIE
“I’m going to get a penis in every movie I do from now on.” Lesser filmmakers have been far less socially conscious about surprise sausages, but it’s undeniable that, in the years since, male nudity has become a mainstay on both the big and small screens, with Apatow’s own penis making an apparent cameo in 2016’s Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping. “ America fears the penis, and that’s something I’m going to help them get over,” he told. “ The unerect human penis is inherently funny.” But Apatow claimed that it was about more than laughs.
“The two latest movies to come off the Judd Apatow assembly line have finally recognized a comic truth long known to women everywhere,” Slate movie critic Dana Stevens wrote in her review. But it was Jason Segel’s self-exhibition in 2008’s hit comedy Forgetting Sarah Marshall, another Apatow production, that took the lion’s share of the glory. That movie, which Apatow co-wrote and co-produced, featured full-frontal nudity both male and female. In this, as in so many things, 2007’s Walk Hard was ahead of its time. If you’ve seen an R-rated dudebro comedy in the past decade, you know that a flash of peen is now less an act of subversion than an obligatory trope of the genre, its ability to shock more dependent on timing than the nudity itself. “This show is not afraid of anything.” Added Devine: “I’m happy it’s making less taboo, because women have been naked in movies for decades.” “There is an episode that has about six dicks in it,” Patterson told a Variety reporter last month. In interviews, the cast and crew have boasted about the surfeit of schlongs as part of the show’s balls-to-the-wall appeal-and even as an example of its progressive bona fides. But many more of those dicks are literal: The series is chockablock with cock, with at least one flaccid member (usually human but in one case equine) making an appearance in each of the first six episodes that were made available to critics. Several of those dicks are metaphorical: The three siblings (series creator Danny McBride, Adam Devine, and Edi Patterson) who make up the heirs to the flashy, globe-spanning, Bible-thumping Gemstone empire are bumbling at their best and selfish to the core.
