Way to be thoughtful and generous when
you had nothing to gain from it, p*ssy.
I'm kidding.
Super appreciate the hookup.
But seriously, Seth, what's up
with your gigantic tux?
I'd be swimming
in that thing...
if I could swim!
Burned you! I can't swim.
Roastmaster... check.
Let's see,
who else should I lampoon?
Wow, look at this dais...
a word I knew before tonight.
Someone must have
told the producer
that this was a panel
of kenny rogers roasters,
'cause you guys are
a bunch of chickens!
Thank you.
It's a chicken-based restaurant,
I researched that.
The "lovely" Sarah Silverman
is here.
I hate to break it to you,
Sarah, but you're getting older.
And you know who else is
getting older? My mom.
I'm scared she's gonna die soon.
What's that gonna be like?
Roasted you.
Roasted Sarah.
Okay, who's my next victim?
Huh.
Natasha leggero is here.
She's, uh... she's basically
a complete unknown,
but tonight we're gettin' paid
the same amount of money!
Uh ah, got you.
Well, guess what, natasha?
You can do everything I can do,
but I can never experience the miracle
of birthing a child. Roasted you.
Roast-afari.
Like a reggae guy.
Here's one:
Nick Kroll, bill hader,and Seth Rogen walk into a bar.
They're there to pick me up because I'm an
alcoholic who can't manage my feelings!
Nailed you f***ers!
Suck a butt!
'Cause this roast just got dark!
(clears throat)
Who else?
Who else wants the wrath?
My good friend
Aziz Ansari is here.
Aziz's parents are from india
and he's from south carolina.
Hey, Aziz, what's it like
to have a unique perspective
on what it means
to be american, you bag of sh*t?
Roasting so hard right now.
It's like at boston market
in here,
'cause I'm roasting
all these kenny rogers chickens.
Jonah Hill is here.
Jonah is so dumb that when he
had me over for a dinner party,
I overstayed my welcome
and he pretended to be tired
so I would leave without
getting my feelings hurt.
You a passive-aggressive
sweetheart, Jonah!
Just ask me to leave.
But I did wanna stay.
Who else is here? Uh...
oh yeah, god is here.
God is everywhere, okay?
He walks with me
through sunshine and rain.
He protects me from temptation.
He is my light.
Roasted the father!
On the sacrilege tip.
Expect letters, comedy central.
If you don't want controversy, you
shouldn't have invited the king!
Whoo!
And now we come
to James Franco.
Everyone's always talking about...
(Laughing)
Thanks, bill.
It's my old homey.
Hey, everyone's always talking about
how good-looking you are, James.
And they are spot on.
You're so handsome
you remind me of the man who
broke up my parents' marriage.
Bam, boston market!
Did you know James Franco was
on "general hospital"?
A crappy soap opera!
It's like you don't let your ego
get in the way of your artistic path.
What is that, kenny rogers?
"Oz the great and powerful"?
More like a movie that transported
me to a magical wonderland.
Good one. Thanks.
Hey! Here's a fun fact:
James Franco has a tiny dick.
Yeah, I said it.
James's dick is so small
that I had to suck it for, like,
three hours just to get him hard.
And then it got way bigger.
Like, scary big. I was like, "you
want me to do what with that?"
Anyways, he railed on me up the
ass, up and inside of my a**hole
with his gigantic
"planet of the apes" cock.
Huh...
James is so bad in bed
that he doesn't even clean his jizz
off my back when he's finished.
Talk about chivalry is dead...
a gentleman, sir, you are not!
Ahhh... you guys, don't be homophobic.
Seriously, it's 2005.
Grow up.
Hey, James, knock knock.
- Who's there?
- I think about you when I jerk off.
Hey, guys, can you try
and settle down out there?
I don't go down to your job and knock
James Franco's dick out of my mouth.
You never
take me anywhere, James!
I sucked your dick, man!
So these are classic
roast jokes.
Jeff ross knows
what I'm talking about.
You melting hippo. Look...
all I'm saying...
all I'm saying is this:
James has force-fed me
so much dick
that you can make foie gras
out of my liver.
That's a foodie joke
about d*cks.
You guys, this has been great.
Let's always remember this.
And, James, you are a super
strange guy and I like that.
Because you've had every opportunity
to be boring and you didn't.
So congrats. And congrats to all
of us for being here tonight
and being so mean to each other,
because it's a tradition
and we're all terrified.
Thank you.
Our next roaster
could have been
in the movie "life of pi,"
but producers thought
they'd get a better performance
out of someone who's
literally never acted
in anything ever
in his whole life.
Please welcome Aziz Ansari.
(applause)
Thank you.
Thank you so much, everyone.
This is so cool.
I've actually never done
any of these roasts before.
But hey, they told me
this roast is different.
You know, they got a
contemporary relevant celebrity,
James Franco, and they got
his actual friends to roast him.
Very cool idea.
If that's the plan though,
why am I here?
I don't know James at all.
You guys saw "this is the end."
I've been up here longer than
I was in "this is the end."
The funniest part
of "this is the end" to me
is if James actually
had that party,
I don't think
I would have been invited.
Natasha leggero is here.
(scattered applause)
And yes, natasha,
sometimes in my set,
I do yell. And so would you
if you toured for more
than tens of people.
- Yeah!
- But natasha had a fantastic set.
It's... yeah,
that was so funny.
It's a shame she didn't say her
jokes eight times slower though
so people actually had
when they fast-forward her
on their d.v.r.
This is my impression
of natasha's set
as it will be seen
on most television sets:
"Ladies and gentlemen,
natasha leggero."
(mimics fast-forwarding)
"Thank you so much, James."
Jonah Hill is here.
- (applause)
- Yes.
I do think one day Jonah
will win an oscar...
meyer hot-dog eater
of the millennium award.
Look this guy is a huge star.
He's hanging out
with the brad pitts
and the leonardo dicaprios
of the world.
If I was hanging out
with those guys,
you think I'd still get
brunch with Nick Kroll?
No, of course not.
That's how successful Jonah is.
He had to get new friends.
That's my new career goal,
to never see Nick Kroll again.
Sarah Silverman is here.
Some of the guys here tonight
really taking me to task
over one kanye west joke
I did in my stand-up act
five years ago.
If anyone wants to make fun of any
jokes Sarah did five years ago,
please don't.
She's still doing those jokes.
Also, I think it's so cool
that some of you guys
were able to travel back in time
to 1995 for those
indian jokes you did.
That's so cool.
Man!
Those stereotypes
are so outdated.
My god.
There's more indian dudes
