This week on The Binge, we revisit Jackass Forever — the long-awaited reunion that brought Johnny Knoxville, Steve-O, Wee Man, Chris Pontius, and the gang back together for another round of outrageous stunts, painful pranks, and absolute insanity. We break down what worked, what surprised us, and whether the franchise still had enough left in the tank after more than a decade away. Plus, we discuss the introduction of the new cast, the absence of Bam Margera, and whether Jackass Forever successfully balances nostalgia with a fresh generation of chaos. They debate, laugh, and argue — all while raising a glass (or more) of their favorite alcoholic beverage and toasting to cinema… and to surviving the franchise. 🍸 The Binge Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/TheBingePodcast/ Joshua Ryan's Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/MrMovieGuy86/

Plus, we talk about Johnny Knoxville's surprisingly committed performance, the emotional core hiding underneath the insanity, and the absolutely bizarre reality that this movie received an Academy Award nomination.

We break down what works, what doesn't, and whether this is secretly the peak of the entire Jackass franchise.

We break down what works, what doesn't, and whether Jackass still holds up in a completely different internet era.
