Paramount Pictures: “Jackass Forever” Official Trailer

Leave a comment

Just when you thought it was safe to go careening down a hill in a souped up shopping cart, the guys in “Jackass” are back with their fourth film called “Jackass Forever” and comes care of Paramount Pictures. The popular prank and feats of extreme stupidity will be opening soon and now you have a trailer to see what you are in store for. Its without question that I say “please do NOT try any of this at home”. Enjoy the clip.

The Premise:
The entire cast from the previous movies returned for the fourth movie, with the exception of Ryan Dunn, who died on June 20, 2011 and Bam Margera who was fired from the production in February 2021. It will be the first film in the series not to feature a guest appearance by Rip Taylor, due to his death in October 2019. (c/o Wiki).

Greetings my friends, its time to lend some overview opinion to our friends over at the Toy Insider. By now I am certain that you know about them since we’ve been hitting their events for about six years but based on the COVID-19 Pandemic, their amazing “Sweet Suite” will once again be done in the virtual sense. I’m going to present the same kind of exploration as I did with the 2020 “Sweet Suite” and its companion “Holiday of Play @ Home” so let’s examine the exhibitors that are present today.

The way I did this those past times was screen grab the exhibitor room and then offered up some opinion on it all and now without any further adieu here is the virtual “Main Floor”. This presentation was more fun that I initially expected and it was like being inside a video game.

The Press Release:
After careful consideration, the NY Luxury Design Fair has decided to make the very difficult decision to postpone the inaugural event to September 8-11, 2022, due to ongoing complications related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The fair has found great enthusiasm and support from prestigious media partners, A&D trade organizations, and many leading manufacturers, and expected robust ticket sales from trade professionals and consumers eager to attend. Unfortunately, many confirmed and prospective exhibitors, local and abroad, have communicated continued challenges including unpredictable future health concerns, managing product backlogs, current workforce shortages and travel bans, limiting corporate policies, and delayed shipping timelines.
