Jim is lying.
30 2016-07-17 by [deleted]
I have about 5 other scripts that were already written that I could have animated immediately, but I chose to really hear the criticism instead of ignoring it. Meaning, I didn't want to plow ahead like a fucking dope and put out something that a lot of people had already expressed they didn't like.
I write for my job. Jim is lioing. It does not take months to write 3-4 five minutes episodes. Here is David Milch describing how he pivoted a pitch about Rome in the time of Nero to what would become Deadwood during his pitch to HBO. Relevant time stamp: 2:43.

I can remember when everybody on this subreddit still loved Jim. It was only a few months ago, but he was like, the only person people would only attack in jest. But now they fucking hate him, and I'm so fucking glad, because he really is a worm.

I guess you could say....the worm has turned.

Been off the sub for a few months. When did everyone turn on Jimmy The Worm?

He's one of those drug addicts.. He was probably high on cannabis when he wrote this
2 FightThePurple 2016-07-17
The only thing that turns on Jimmy now is black transsexual hookers willing to shit on his chest
2 panjshirlion 2016-07-17
I still love Jim.
-13 PM_ME_YOUR_FEET- 2016-07-17
Eh I still like him, actually kinda annoyed by people fucking with his reputation and creating smear threads on r/mma and such. One thing is giving him shit and coming up with clever lines, but come on you're fucking with his livelihood here. He JUST started out a new podcast - opened up to a new audience and you guys are going over there and making them hate him before they've even gotten to know him. And I bet you guys won't even stop there. What's next? Are you gonna tell them how big Lamar's fawkin peckah is, you pieces of gahbige? I hope you all die in a car accident or somethin. I hope your mother finds your corpses and cries or somethin.

Did you just compare a beginning scriptwriter to Milch? It's like comparing an open micer to George Carlin.
5 [deleted] 2016-07-17
It's Naughty Norton, the man praised by Colin Quinn for his hilarious pilot. He had his own talk show. :)

Also David Milch's first episode of Hill Street Blues won an Emmy.
In 1982, Milch wrote a script for Hill Street Blues, which became the episode "Trial by Fury". This began his career in television. He worked five seasons on Hill Street Blues as executive story editor and then as executive producer. Milch earned two Writers Guild Awards, a Humanitas prize, and an Emmy while working on that show.
It was his first ever episode of primetime television.
2 kgt5003 2016-07-17
Yeah but look at the quality of the episode he wrote and released. Anybody on the planet who has 2 brain cells to rub together could write 50 stories like that in a day. There is no continuity or clever twists involved. It's literally just "chip goes to 'x' and then something crazy happens." You just change the setting and you are done with the episode.
10 Leeham721 2016-07-17
Reminder that he started talking about this animated show in at least 2011.
5 years...to do this.
-2 MouthFullOfPollywogs 2016-07-17
He was doing a radio show and performing every night too, pretty impressive.
3 SkepticSloth 2016-07-17
He wrote two books while doing all of that, which is considerably more work than these cartoons.
It's not episodes of the Sopranos we're talking about here, it's dick and fart and tranny jokes.
-1 MouthFullOfPollywogs 2016-07-17
by all means, show the kid how its done buddy.
8 Tom_Stall 2016-07-17
This is not really fair. You can't compare Jim to someone who has talent.
Also anyone have any recommendations for shows as good as Deadwood?
5 cbanks420lol 2016-07-17
Have you seen Rome? It's another great show that got ended too early.
1 ff_beer_money 2016-07-17
Jessica Jones on Netflix was pretty good. Daredevil Season 2. I was pleasantly surprised. Mr Robot on USA. in terms of good quality shows I really dig these two and I loved Deadwood. Maybe Narcos on Netflix.
1 Lobstrich 2016-07-17
Hell on Wheels is pretty good if you haven't seen it.
5 zenthedude 2016-07-17
Yeah, and he's an alcoholic as well.
I'm a screenwriter and writing a 3-4 minute episode equates to five pages at most, which can be written in literally 10 minutes. He's full of shit. As someone who's written several books, which is a helluva lot harder than scripts, he should have been able to crank out a full season in a fucking hour, but alas, he's a liar.
3 sanfrancisco69er 2016-07-17
He's not an alcoholic but theyre just series' of fart jokes that Rob Schneider would be embarassed to be a part on. I forgot where I was going but I just read your last gay sentence. Kill yourself.

Well LA DEE FRICKEN DAA, we got ourselves a writer! I can't see real good is that Bill Shakespeare over there?

Don't we all? It's a shitty, shitty business. Sigh...

I think you are confused about the meaning of literally

Im down for doing some freelance scriptwriting. Just send me some cash some time
Chip enters the room holding a turd
Chip: Hey look everybody, I made a friend!
Chip then smears the turd on his face
End scene
3 AntsCamera 2016-07-17
Morton is trying to save face because it is finally getting out that he raped his fans for 60k, and tried to ignore it and hoped it went away, kinda like how him and Tits treated Ants firing.
Yeah it sucked, Morton, you knew it and Jen Carmody did not want to do any more because she got creeped out and bailed on the project.
Just admit it, you bombed.
1 [deleted] 2016-07-17
Bring me back from of the brim of it
From that place no leading shall I need
1 ff_beer_money 2016-07-17
Can you elaborate on Jen Carmody bailing?
1 Nulltor 2016-07-17
Oh no, he was just too lazy to type out what he had done with the tens of thousands of dollars that his fans gave him to support his career.
3 fervt 2016-07-17
Maybe Jim is just a starry-eyed rube and everytime he attempts to do something on his own he gets fleeced for all he's got by those he tries to do business with.
3 Dagidugidai 2016-07-17
"really hear the criticism instead of ignoring it" Which is why he blocked anyone who brought up any criticism? That's the lie.
2 RPCulture 2016-07-17
So, not only is Norton a liar, he is also a lior as well!

It took me 1.5 years to perfect the feature script that finally got me hired. I guess I should off myself now.

Stahp loying!!
1 ff_beer_money 2016-07-17
The first Facebook comment of Chip taking all the money getting zooted and buying a Lamborghini is perfect. That's exactly what Jim should do as Chip.
1 NashuaDan 2016-07-17
Please tell me you didn't just compare Jim Norton pitching fart cartoons with David Milch pitching Deadwood.
2 [deleted] 2016-07-17
I mean I did. But I didn't mean it. The absurdity of it all has kept me laughing since I started posted.
1 NashuaDan 2016-07-17
Ok, just checking. In that case, yes that is a hilarious comparison.
