- Quotes
Jeffrey Ross: This is so much fun. I mean, Bruce is such a star. You've been in some of the most iconic scenes in cinema history. My favorite scene in "Pulp Fiction" when you save the guy from getting fucked in the ass. Hey, Dennis, at that point in the movie, were you like "Wait. Who's the bad guy again?"?
[laughter]
Jeffrey Ross: Of course, your most recent film was a big bomb, "Death Wish". What a fucking stinker, Bruce. It looked like you did your own stunts, and your own lighting, editing, and directing.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt is the weakest host so far. Not every great actor can be funny, and his bits can't generate general interest. Dennis Rodman was obviously the "why the heck is HE there?" guest, and wow......did he bomb. Not a single funny moment, from a person who shouldn't even be there. I don't even blame Rodman, but the producers who asked him.
Of course Jeff Ross is funny, but no surprises and his star power can't save the below mediocre mess. Only Edward Norton was surpringly funny and entertaining. His jokes weren't predictable one liners, but a coherent story with a heart.
But besides Norton and Ross, this roast offers nothing. Most jokes were one liners and you could guess the predictable punch line at any moment. This means the time of the roast with a charismatic cast that really had fun being there, is probably over.
