Pretty positive jim norton is the only comedian that isn't in train-wreck
30 2015-07-23 by bullsvsbears
Part of me feels bad as he took off work and it was this big thing a year ago all secret and stuff and the bubble guppy gets cut.....
The show basically went overboard talking about this movie and with all these actors coming in and talking about the premier it must have been awkward for jim to sit there having been cut from the movie... Even dan soder was it in lol......

The thing is that Jimmy isn't very talented.

Awww, what's the matter? Did baby boy get his 10 second contribution that took 5 months to film cut out?

"FUCK YOU! FUCK YOU! FAGGOT!! FAGGOT MOTHERFUCKER!! TURN HIM DOWN! TURN HIM DOWN!! FAGGOT!!"

Or well known. Very few people would see him and say "Oh, that guy!"

Unless it's in a police line up for a rapist who ran off with the abortion.

I don't think they would anymore. He looks so much different in his AIDS form than his Spiderman extra form

Except children who mistake him for Gollum.

He stinks, and I don't like him.

When Bennington was doing its "Trainwreck" show last week, they were talking about how one film launched a comic's superstar career ala Eddie Murphy, Jim Carrey etc and they were trying to figure out who the next one would be. In all seriousness Ron said he thinks Norton is destined to have America fall in love with him and be a breakout star. Not a hint of sarcasm in his voice either and had the balls to say Jim was around same as as Rodney Dangerfield when Dangerfield broke out.
Cocaine is a hell of a drug.
1 slippin_jim 2015-07-23
To be fair, that's pretty much how Ron delivers any line whether it's sarcastic or not.

Jimmy is and always will be c-list comedian.

Acting just isn't Jimmy's strong-suit. He is great at being on the radio and cracking quick jokes. He is pretty good at doing standup (although I don't really care for most of his standup shit but it seems like a lot of people do). His acting, on the other hand, is a whole different thing. This was a major movie and they aren't going to slip a scene in if the person simply blows. Why ruin a good movie by having a guy in it that can't act at all? It just would throw off the entire flow of the movie. They tried to throw the lil guy a bone but this one was above his pay-grade.

I don't know if you watched the movie but there was a scene where they just rapid fired 5 comedians from the show back to back as they were "one night stands" they had like one line its just kinda crazy
10 kgt5003 2015-07-23
I didn't see the movie but maybe Amy didn't want Norton to be the face of somebody her character would sleep with. She had higher standards for herself even in a make-believe movie.
7 bullsvsbears 2015-07-23
lol true but they were bob kelly, florentine, soder...
7 kgt5003 2015-07-23
Bob used to be good looking. Soder and Florentine are normal looking guys. Plus Jimmy doing even one line can be rough. He isn't very natural at all when he is acting. It's weird. Even on CK's show his parts seem so much less natural compared to the other guys who get bigger speaking parts.

You can't tell just by looking at the fat fuck now though.

You're going to make me see this movie now.

Whaddaya gonna do?
8 telemecanique 2015-07-23
year ago I'd feel bad, now I think it's karma for being a sellout and part of "management likes the new show".
7 justchippinyaaaa 2015-07-23
They would have to pull some Clockwork Orange eye shit for Jimmy to pull off a scene longer than a single blink.
6 xxmikekxx 2015-07-23
Mark Normand got cut out too
And I think Bonnie McFarlane is the only female comedian that Amy does not help out though
8 CUNTYMOM 2015-07-23
because she knows bonnie is a lot more funny than she is, girls get intimidated easily.
6 I_Hate_Knickers 2015-07-23
Bonnie is still sexy with her glasses on and Amy is a fatty pig fatty although I admit I did get a semi when I saw her Star Wats photoshoot.
3 donald_kingsley 2015-07-23
Because they shopped out most of the bloat.
2 tar_baby33 2015-07-23
True.

Oh fuck off.
5 silks322 2015-07-23
Did Jimmy even go see it? I could have sworn I heard him say on his advice show yesterday that he "heard it was good." Also, if I'm not mistaken, he went to the after party, but not to the premiere.
Sour grapes?
3 feignsc2 2015-07-23
He doesn't like to watch his own work...oh wait.
5 hkpp 2015-07-23
He's the worst actor I've ever seen. He's even terrible as himself on Louis.
5 nomorecompromise 2015-07-23
I don't even know why he tries to get roles. His acting is with out a doubt, horrible.
8 tar_baby33 2015-07-23
I still think of that poker scene on Louie...everyone is great...except Norton. He stinks as an actor. GREAT on the radio but a terrible actor and his standup isn't that good either.
4 phlammo 2015-07-23
One of Jim's saddest moments was when some guest was in (maybe Kevin Smith) and they were discussing Leno's audience size. Whoever it was mentioned off-the-cuff how Leno's numbers were pretty small in the grand scheme of things. Jim pushed back a little, then I think it actually dawned on him that the numbers were a fraction of who he thought he was broadcasting to ... that late-night TV wasn't what it used to be. And that even if the numbers were decent, it wasn't even his target demo ... but likely old people, half of whom are asleep in front of their TVs. It was funny and sad at the same time.
Anybody got that clip?

Schumer is only getting bigger.No second chance for the Worm,he's stuck with the Tits.
1 netryeder 2015-07-23
Upvote because I thought you were going for a Schumer fat joke.
3 JadedRefHopOn 2015-07-23
When a scene it cut it is usually because it doesn't advance the story, is redundant to some other story element, or impedes the comedic timing or pace. Sometimes it can be the actor's performance, but with enough takes this can be managed.
They sneak preview the crap out of these movies and the parts that work and parts that don't are obvious from the audience reaction.
Jimmy's part, something to do with a horse carriage, probably impeded the pace and didn't further the story of Amy and the doctor.
4 jimcozad 2015-07-23
Jimmy was blowing a horse, when the director yelled cut he wouldn't stop.
2 spaceship-earth 2015-07-23
Amy fucked him hardcore. After all he did for her.
9 JunkerHQ 2015-07-23
I like how you think amy is in the editing room.
4 bullsvsbears 2015-07-23
I was just thinking about the weeks of awkward radio(for him always awkward for us) in promoting and saying how awesome it is and talking about all his friends that are in it knowing full well his scene got cut thats brutal....
-8 xxmikekxx 2015-07-23
Well Jimmy was in Trainwreck. He got a role. His scene was just cut. That's not her fault
2 kevin121312 2015-07-23
Amy wanted him to play a guy she meets in a bar and Jimmy insisted that he wear lipstick and a wig. After he whined about it, the character didn't work and he got cut.
-4 TheGreatGuidini 2015-07-23
Yeah....no. The picture you're referring to was from a shoot with Gervais. The scene that got cut from Trainwreck was Jimmy as a horse and carriage driver. Bill Haders character steals the carriage and Jimmy runs after him screaming.
7 kevin121312 2015-07-23
Oh literal TheGreatGuidini
2 ryanasimov 2015-07-23
I remember the lead up to the premiere of "Lucky Louie" on HBO. I knew how funny Jimmy was on the show so I couldn't wait to see him on screen.
I wasn't prepared for the cringe of him blinking and spitting out his lines with almost no inflection or timing. Oof.
1 TrackSuitVos 2015-07-23
Cradle the shaft! Work the balls!
1 sanfrancisco69er 2015-07-23
other than a few that are just too big to be in it, literally every single comedian can think of has a "one night stand guy" credit except for jim norton.
1 moses2005 2015-07-23
Didn't Metzger get cut?
1 NashuaDan 2015-07-23
He was blinking too much.
1 Dennyisthepisslord 2015-07-23
Funny how a negative can become a positive.
0 xOneSainTx 2015-07-23
But that exclusive deleted scene sells the Blu-Ray.....then it ends up on YouTube.
0 MelaniumFalcon 2015-07-23
He was in it, they cut his scene unfortunately.
