'''''Movie 43''''' is a 2013 American [[Anthology film|anthology]] [[comedy]] film co-directed and produced by [[Peter Farrelly]], and written by Rocky Russo and [[Jeremy Sosenko]] among others. The film features fourteen different storylines, each one by a different director, including [[Elizabeth Banks]], [[Steven Brill (director)|Steven Brill]], [[Steve Carr]], [[Rusty Cundieff]], James Duffy, [[Griffin Dunne]], Patrik Forsberg, [[James Gunn]], [[Bob Odenkirk]], [[Brett Ratner]], [[Will Graham (producer)|Will Graham]], and Jonathan van Tulleken. It stars an [[ensemble cast]] that is led by Banks, [[Kristen Bell]], [[Halle Berry]], [[Gerard Butler]], [[Seth MacFarlane]], [[Leslie Bibb]], [[Kate Bosworth]], [[Josh Duhamel]], [[Anna Faris]], [[Richard Gere]], [[Terrence Howard]], [[Hugh Jackman]], [[Johnny Knoxville]], [[Justin Long]], [[Christopher Mintz-Plasse]], [[Chloë Grace Moretz]], [[Chris Pratt]], [[Liev Schreiber]], [[Seann William Scott]], [[Emma Stone]], [[Jason Sudeikis]], [[Uma Thurman]], [[Naomi Watts]] and [[Kate Winslet]]. [[Julianne Moore]], [[Tony Shalhoub]] and [[Anton Yelchin]] are also featured in cut scenes released on DVD and Blu-ray.

The film took almost a decade to get into production as most studios rejected the script, which was eventually picked up by [[Relativity Media]] for $6 million. The film was shot over a period of several years, as casting also proved to be a challenge for the producers. Some actors, including [[George Clooney]], declined to take part, while others, such as [[Richard Gere]], attempted to get out of the project.<ref>{{cite news |last=Farrelly |first=Peter |title=Movie 43: How Kate Winslet and Hugh Jackman lured all-star cast to 'the worst film ever' |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/9844090/Movie-43-How-Kate-Winslet-and-Hugh-Jackman-lured-all-star-cast-to-the-worst-film-ever.html |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20220112/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/9844090/Movie-43-How-Kate-Winslet-and-Hugh-Jackman-lured-all-star-cast-to-the-worst-film-ever.html |archive-date=January 12, 2022 |url-access=subscription |url-status=live |access-date=August 13, 2014 |newspaper=[[The Daily Telegraph]] |date=February 2, 2013}}{{cbignore}}</ref>

==Plot==
''Movie 43'' is a series of different sketches containing different scenes and scenarios.

===The Pitch===
* Produced and directed by [[Peter Farrelly]] and written by Rocky Russo, Jeremy Sosenko, and Ricky Blitt

The film is composed of multiple comedy shorts presented through an overarching segment titled "The Pitch", in which [[Charles B. Wessler|Charlie Wessler]], a mad screenwriter, is attempting to pitch a script to film executive Griffin Schraeder.

After revealing several of the stories in his script, Wessler becomes agitated when Schraeder dismisses his outrageous ideas, and he pulls a gun on him and forces him to listen to multiple other stories before making Schraeder consult his manager, Bob Mone, to purchase the film.

When they do so, Mone's condescending, humiliating attitude toward Schraeder angers him to the point that, after agreeing to make the film "the biggest film since ''[[Howard the Duck (film)|Howard the Duck]]''", he confronts Mone in the parking lot with a gun and tries to make him perform fellatio on the security guard (Wessler had gotten on the lot by doing the same thing) and kill him if he does not make the film.

Wessler tries to calm Schraeder down with more story ideas to no avail, but Mone pulls out a gun and shoots Schraeder to death. As the segment ends, it is revealed that it is being shot by a camera crew as part of the movie, leading into the final segments.

===Alternative version (The Thread)===

Instead of a pitch, the films are connected by a group of three teenagers searching for the most [[List of banned films|banned film]] in the world, ''Movie 43'', which will ultimately lead to the destruction of civilization.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.filmdates.co.uk/films/3179-movie-43/?www |title=Movie 43 &#124; UK Cinema Release Date |website=Filmdates.co.uk |access-date=January 31, 2013}}</ref> Calvin Cutler and his friend J. J. make a video in the style of [[MTV]]'s ''[[Jackass (TV series)|Jackass]]'' and upload it on [[YouTube]] where it instantly reaches over 1,000,000 views. This turns out to be an [[April Fool's|April Fool's prank]] from Calvin's younger brother Baxter, who cloned YouTube and hyper-inflated the views while working on his science project.

Calvin and J.J. attempt to get revenge telling Baxter of a film that's so dangerous it will cause the annihilation of the world. The movie is known as Movie 43. While J.J. and Baxter look for Movie 43 on a [[Google]] standin, Calvin retrieves Baxter's laptop and loads it with [[Computer viruses|viruses]] from porn sites, and masturbates to a strip tease video on the porn sites in a bathroom. Baxter finds hundreds of results for Movie 43 on a website referred to by him as a dark corner of the [[Internet]]. They find the sketches starting from the 43rd search on the list of results.

As Baxter and J.J. keep watching videos, they are interrupted by Vrankovich and a group of Chinese mobsters wanting to find Movie 43, going so far as to take J.J.'s classmate Stevie Schraeder, film executive Griffin Schraeder's oldest son, hostage. Vrankovich warns them that if they find Movie 43, civilization will be destroyed. They ignore his claims and keep searching, Eventually finding the real, one and only ''Movie 43'', which turns out to be from the future.

As Calvin finishes ruining Baxter's laptop, their mother enters, wearing the same shirt and shorts that the woman in the strip tease video wore, causing Calvin to have a mental breakdown, realizing he had masturbated to a video of his mother. Afterward, a deadly [[earthquake]] rumbles and mankind is lost. However, a few years later the only survivor, a crippled Calvin, finds Baxter's laptop still working despite the viruses.

One day, Amy witnesses Beezel masturbating to summer vacation photos of Anson in a swimsuit. He attacks and violently urinates on her.

Anson still finds his pet innocent but Amy threatens to leave if he doesn't get rid of Beezel. Caring more about his relationship, he agrees to find a new home for him. That night, from a closet, Beezel tearfully watches the couple make love (whilst [[sodomy|sodomizing]] himself with a hairbrush and [[dry humping]] a stuffed teddy bear).

The next day when it comes time to take Beezel away, he is nowhere to be found. Amy goes outside to look. Beezel then runs her over with a truck and attempts to kill her with a shotgun, but she chases him into the street and begins beating him with a shovel, which is witnessed by a group of children attending a birthday party at a neighboring house.

When Anson approaches to see what is happening, Amy tries to explain Beezel's motives. He acts innocent and Anson sides with his cat.

His supervisor Bob suddenly walks in and believes Wayne has performed a life-saving operation of some kind. The staff at the hospital and the media congratulate him while a news reporter asks what he did to save her.

Unable to conjure an answer, one of the cops on scene tells everyone else they can just watch the security tapes to find out. As they rush to the security room, Wayne is given a personal thanks by the girl he revived, upon which he responds with an awkward "You're welcome".<ref>{{cite web |url=http://moviehole.net/201024475anton-yelchin-is-the-apprentice |title=Anton Yelchin is The Apprentice |date=April 19, 2010 |website=Moviehole.net |access-date=July 30, 2017}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3448498/ |title=The Apprentice (2014) |website=IMDb.com |access-date=July 30, 2017}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://vimeo.com/133183116 |title=The Apprentice |first=Maria |last=Volk |date=July 10, 2015 |website=[[Vimeo]] |access-date=July 30, 2017}}</ref> Unlike ''Find Our Daughter'', this segment was not included in the DVD or Blu-ray release<ref name="comicmix.com">{{cite web |url=http://www.comicmix.com/2013/06/24/review-movie-43/ |title=Review: Movie 43 |first=Robert |last=Greenberger |date=June 24, 2013 |website=ComicMix |access-date=July 30, 2017}}</ref> and instead premiered at the 2014 LA Comedy Festival.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3448498/releaseinfo |title=The Apprentice (2014): Release Info |website=IMDb.com |access-date=July 30, 2017}}</ref>

==Production==
===Development===
Wessler first came up with the idea for an outrageous comedy made up of several short films in the early 2000s. "It's like ''[[Funny or Die]]'', only if you could go crazy," judged Farrelly, "because with ''Funny or Die'', there are certain limits. And we just wanted to do that kind of short and go much further than that." Charlie Wessler affirmed that he "wanted to make a ''[[Kentucky Fried Movie]]'' for the modern age".<ref name="NYPost">{{cite news |title='Movie 43' is an ungodly gross-out epic that Hollywood's A-list wants to forget |last=Callahan |first=Maureen |url=http://www.nypost.com/p/news/national/the_ungodly_gross_out_epic_wood_mfCWrFl3qus9d0e1CRNWZN |date=January 20, 2013 |newspaper=[[The New York Post]] |access-date=February 2, 2013}}</ref>

Wessler then recruited three pairs of directors—[[Trey Parker]] and [[Matt Stone]], Peter and Bobby Farrelly, and [[David Zucker (filmmaker)|David]] and [[Jerry Zucker (film director)|Jerry Zucker]]—to sign on to write and direct one-third of the project each. He then began working out a deal with a studio for the project, but the project did not stick. "They ended up calling me about a month after we started negotiating the deal and said 'we can't do it' because they had political pressure to not make R-rated movies that were marketed to teenagers," claimed Wessler. He then went to multiple other studios, but, according to Wessler, "no one could understand what [he] was trying to do".<ref name="NYPost"/>

In 2009, Peter Farrelly and producer John Penotti took their pitch—along with about 60 scripts for the vignettes—to [[Relativity Media]]. At that meeting, Wessler, Penotti, and Farrelly presented one short that they already had shot, starring Kate Winslet as a woman going on a blind date with a seemingly successful and handsome Hugh Jackman. "They just looked at me and said, 'Go for it,'" Wessler told ''[[The Hollywood Reporter]]''. "It takes a lot of balls to make something that is not conventional." Relativity provided $6 million for the film, but no other studio would sign on. "Other potential backers", Farrelly revealed, "didn't believe it could happen—a movie with Kate Winslet for $6 million?"<ref name="NYPost"/>

The film officially began [[principal photography]] in March 2010, but due to its large cast, producer/director Farrelly told ''[[Entertainment Weekly]]'' that "This movie was made over four years, and they just had to wait for a year or two years for different actors.

===Casting and filming===
Wessler spent years recruiting actors for the film. Many turned down the project.
"Most agents would avoid me because they knew what I wanted to do—what agent wants to book their big client in a no pay, $800-a-day, two-day shoot?" he said. "The truth is, I had a lot of friends who were in this movie. And if they didn't say yes, this movie wouldn't have gotten made." In the end, most of the actors were willing to take part because the film only required a few days of their time and often allowed them to play a character outside of their wheelhouse.<ref name="NYPost"/>

[[Hugh Jackman]] was the first actor Wessler cast. He met the star at a wedding and then called him some time later and pitched him the short. Jackman read the script and agreed to be a part of the film. "He called me back I think 24 hours later and said, 'Yeah I wanna do this,' which I think is, quite frankly, incredibly ballsy. Because you could be made a fool of, or you could look silly, and there will be people who say, 'That's crazy; he should never have done it.'"<ref name="NYPost"/>

After talking to the multiple agents of [[Kate Winslet]], she eventually agreed to take part. The Winslet-Jackman sketch was shot shortly after, and became the reel to attract other A-list stars.<ref name="NYPost"/>

[[John Hodgman]], who plays opposite [[Justin Long]] in one sketch, signed on with no knowledge of the project. Long, Hodgman's co-star in the long-running [[Get a Mac]] series of [[Apple Inc.|Apple]] commercials, asked him to do the project, and he then signed on, without still knowing too much. Hodgman said, "I got an e-mail from Justin that said, 'I'm going to be dressing up as Robin again. Do you want to dress up as the Penguin?' And I said yes. Without even realizing cameras would be involved, or that it would be a movie."<ref name="NYPost"/>

[[James Gunn]] revealed during a [[Facebook]] Q&A that he was convinced to do the film by [[Elizabeth Banks]] and to "blame her" for it. He added "I didn't even get to edit that stupid thing!" He also has never seen the film.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.facebook.com/jgunn/videos/10154923971416157/|title=Hi everyone. It's me live on FB answering some questions and stuff.|website=Facebook|last=Gunn|first=James|date=February 26, 2018|access-date=February 27, 2018}}</ref>

Others were not so affable. In fact, some stars hedged: [[Richard Gere]], a friend of Wessler's, said yes—but also said he would not be available for more than a year. So Wessler waited him out, convinced his sketch was good. Gere eventually called Wessler and told him he was free to shoot, on just a couple of conditions: they had to do it in four days, and they needed to relocate the shoot from [[Los Angeles]] to [[New York City]].<ref name="NYPost"/>

"They clearly wanted out!" judged Farrelly. "But we wouldn't let them. The strategy was simple: 'Wait for them. Shoot when they want to shoot. Guilt them to death.' It didn't work on everyone." [[Colin Farrell]] initially agreed to be in the Butler leprechaun sketch—as Butler's brother, also a leprechaun—but then he backed out and [[Gerard Butler]] did the sketch by himself. Farrelly said that when he approached [[George Clooney]] about playing himself in a sketch (the gag was that Clooney is bad at picking up women), Clooney told him "No fucking way."<ref name="NYPost"/> There were two sketches cut from the film that were originally shown during a [[test screening]]; one that starred [[Anton Yelchin]] as a [[necrophilia]]c mortician who worked at a hospital and had sex with the dead female bodies, and another starring [[Julianne Moore]] and [[Tony Shalhoub]] as a married couple being interviewed by a [[detective]] about their missing daughter.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1333125/board/thread/209996584?d=209996855&p=1#209996855 |title=Re: Who Directed what Skits? |website=IMDb}}</ref> Producer Penotti said that the sketches would be seen on the DVD and Blu-ray Disc releases of the film,<ref name="NYPost"/> however only the latter was included in the release.<ref name="comicmix.com"/>

Because the filmmakers worked around the stars' schedules, the filming of the whole movie took several years. While so many A-list actors were on board, most were not completely aware of what other sketches would be included in the film, which features thirteen vignettes tied together by a story of a mad screenwriter (Quaid) pitching ideas to a movie producer (Kinnear). Penotti said many of the actors did not ask many questions about what else was going on in the film.
"They were attracted to their script, and as long as that tickled their funnybone, that was enough," he revealed.<ref name="NYPost"/><ref name="HR-415196"/>

==Promotion==
The title of the film, ''Movie 43'' has no meaning. Farrelly heard his son talking with friends about a film called "Movie 43", but when Farrelly discovered the film did not exist, he cribbed the name.<ref name="NYPost"/>

Relativity did little to promote the film and none of the cast members did any promotion of the film. The film was not screened for critics in advance. "The slapdash title, the lack of promotion and advance screenings, the release date—none of it bodes well," opined ''Entertainment Weekly'' senior editor Thom Geier. "January is usually where movies go to die," Geier argued. "And to go by the trailer—the only option—the content seems dated." A [[Trailer (promotion)#Rating cards|red-band trailer]] was released on October 3, 2012.<ref>{{cite web |last=Stillman |first=Josh |title=''Movie 43'' trailer: Kate Winslet, Naomi Watts, and Emma Stone get their NSFW on |url=http://insidemovies.ew.com/2012/10/03/movie-43-trailer-kate-winslet-naomi-watts-and-emma-stone/ |website=[[Entertainment Weekly]] |access-date=October 3, 2012 |date=October 3, 2012}}</ref> Farrelly was optimistic: "Kids, teenagers, 50-somethings who still smoke pot—they're all going to find something here," he asserted.<ref name="NYPost" />

''Movie 43'' was panned by critics, with some considering it to be [[List of films considered the worst|one of the worst films ever made]].<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.theguardian.com/film/2013/jan/29/movie-43-peter-farrelly-twitter |title=Movie 43 director tells critics to 'lighten up' after film bombs at box office |last=Child |first=Ben |newspaper=[[The Guardian]] |date=January 29, 2013 |access-date=February 14, 2016}}</ref> The film received a [[weighted average]] score of 18 out of 100 on [[Metacritic]] based on 23 critics, signifying "overwhelming dislike".<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.metacritic.com/movie/movie-43 |title=Movie 43 Reviews |website=[[Metacritic]] |publisher=[[CBS Interactive]] |access-date=May 9, 2019}}</ref> On [[Rotten Tomatoes]], the film has a 4% positive rating based on 89 reviews, with an average rating of 2.74/10.

Brian Gibson (''[[Vue Weekly]]'') describes ''Movie 43'' as "An execrable waste cooked up by a hell's kitchen of directors and writers. It's death-of-laughter by committee. Its title?

In his guest review for [[Roger Ebert]]'s website, [[Richard Roeper]] of the ''[[Chicago Sun-Times]]'' outright panned the film, giving it zero out of four stars, calling it "aggressively tasteless", and going so far as to say "''Movie 43'' is the ''[[Citizen Kane]]'' of awful". He wrote that the film has nothing in common with ''[[The Groove Tube]]'' and ''[[The Kentucky Fried Movie]]'', two "very funny and influential" sketch-comedy films. He additionally criticized ''Movie 43'' for what he calls "female humiliation", saying that although the men are "jerks, idiots, dolts and fools", the women have it even worse.<ref name="sun-times" /> [[Robbie Collin]] of ''[[The Daily Telegraph]]'' gave the film 1/5 stars, describing it as "the work of a confused man thrashing around in an industry he no longer understands".<ref>{{cite news |last=Collin |first=Robbie |title=Movie 43, review |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/film/filmreviews/9833478/Movie-43-review.html |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20220112/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/film/filmreviews/9833478/Movie-43-review.html |archive-date=January 12, 2022 |url-access=subscription |url-status=live |newspaper=The Daily Telegraph |access-date=29 January 2013 |date=29 January 2013 |location=London}}{{cbignore}}</ref> Peter Howell of the ''[[Toronto Star]]'' gave the film zero out of four stars and called it the worst film he had ever seen.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.thestar.com/entertainment/movies/article/1320233--movie-43-review-the-worst-film-ever-gets-zero-stars |title=Movie 43 review: The worst film ever gets zero stars |first=Peter |last=Howell |newspaper=Toronto Star |date=January 25, 2013 |access-date=January 26, 2013}}</ref> Elizabeth Weitzman of the [[Daily News (New York)|New York ''Daily News'']] gave it a negative review, saying, "As a film critic, I've seen nearly 4,000 movies over the last fifteen years.

The film features fourteen different storylines, each one by a different director, including [[Elizabeth Banks]], [[Steven Brill (director)|Steven Brill]], [[Steve Carr]], [[Rusty Cundieff]], James Duffy, [[Griffin Dunne]], Patrik Forsberg, [[James Gunn]], [[Bob Odenkirk]], [[Brett Ratner]], [[Will Graham (producer)|Will Graham]], and Jonathan van Tulleken.

[[Julianne Moore]], [[Tony Shalhoub]] and [[Anton Yelchin]] are also featured in cut scenes released on DVD and Blu-ray. The film took almost a decade to get into production as most studios rejected the script, which was eventually picked up by [[Relativity Media]] for $6 million. The film was shot over a period of several years, as casting also proved to be a challenge for the producers.

Wessler|Charlie Wessler]], a mad screenwriter, is attempting to pitch a script to film executive Griffin Schraeder. After revealing several of the stories in his script, Wessler becomes agitated when Schraeder dismisses his outrageous ideas, and he pulls a gun on him and forces him to listen to multiple other stories before making Schraeder consult his manager, Bob Mone, to purchase the film. When they do so, Mone's condescending, humiliating attitude toward Schraeder angers him to the point that, after agreeing to make the film "the biggest film since ''[[Howard the Duck (film)|Howard the Duck]]''", he confronts Mone in the parking lot with a gun and tries to make him perform fellatio on the security guard (Wessler had gotten on the lot by doing the same thing) and kill him if he does not make the film. Wessler tries to calm Schraeder down with more story ideas to no avail, but Mone pulls out a gun and shoots Schraeder to death. As the segment ends, it is revealed that it is being shot by a camera crew as part of the movie, leading into the final segments. ;Cast * [[Dennis Quaid]] as Charlie Wessler * [[Greg Kinnear]] as Griffin Schraeder * [[Common (entertainer)|Common]] as Bob Mone * [[Charlie Saxton]] as Jay * [[Will Sasso]] as Jerry * Odessa Rae as Danita * [[Seth MacFarlane]] as himself * Mike Meldman as himself ===Alternative version (The Thread)=== * Directed by [[Steven Brill (scriptwriter)|Steven Brill]] and written by Rocky Russo and Jeremy Sosenko In some countries, like the United Kingdom and the Netherlands, the structure differs.

When they arrive together at a restaurant, Beth is shocked when he removes his scarf, revealing a pair of [[testicle]]s dangling from his neck. Over dinner it confuses her that he fails to acknowledge his anatomical abnormality, and nobody seems to be surprised by it. When two friends of Davis come by, one of them convinces him to give Beth a kiss. Davis agrees, but when he kisses her on the forehead, his neck-testicles are dangling near Beth's mouth, causing her to scream and break off the kiss. ;Cast * [[Hugh Jackman]] as Davis * [[Kate Winslet]] as Beth * Roy Jenkins as Ray * Rocky Russo as Waiter Jake * Anna Madigan as Abby * [[Julie Claire]] as Pam * [[Katie Finneran]] as Angie ====Homeschooled==== * Directed by [[Will Graham (producer)|Will Graham]], written by Will Graham & Jack Kukoda Recently moved in, Sean and Clare have coffee with their new neighbors, Robert and Samantha who have a teenage son, Kevin, whom they home-school. They begin inquiring about the homeschooling, and Robert and Samantha describe how they replicated a full high school experience, going as far as hazing, bullying, ostracizing and giving out detentions. To make the experience as awkward as possible, like "real high school," they threw parties that excluded Kevin, Samantha instigated Kevin's "first kiss" and Robert revealed romantic feelings for Kevin. Visibly disturbed, the neighbors end up meeting Kevin, who says he is going out and gives them the impression that all is fine: until he reveals a doll made of a mop with Samantha's face on it, referring to the doll as his girlfriend. ;Cast * [[Jeremy Allen White]] as Kevin Miller * [[Liev Schreiber]] as Robert Miller * [[Naomi Watts]] as Samantha Miller * Alex Cranmer as Sean * [[Julie Ann Emery]] as Clare ====The Proposition==== * Directed by [[Steve Carr]], written by Rocky Russo & Jeremy Sosenko Julie and Doug have been in a relationship for a year. When he attempts to propose, she reveals that she is a [[coprophilia]]c, asking him to defecate on her in the bedroom. Urged by his best friend Larry and others to go along with it, he eats a large meal and drinks a bottle of laxative prior to the event. Wanting foreplay, Julie is angered when Doug wants to finish, and she runs into the street. Chasing after her, he is then hit by a car and graphically evacuates his bowels everywhere. She cradles him and apologizes; covered and surrounded by his excrement on the road, she exclaims that it is the "most beautiful thing" she has ever seen and accepts his marriage proposal. ;Cast * [[Anna Faris]] as Julie (aka Vanessa) * [[Chris Pratt]] as Doug (aka Jason) * [[J.

Soon it turns into sexual discussion and flirtation as they lament over their relationship. Unbeknownst to them, Neil's intercom microphone broadcasts the entire explicit conversation throughout the store, where various elderly people and vagrants tune in. After she leaves in tears, the customers agree to cover his shift while he goes after her. ;Cast * [[Kieran Culkin]] as Neil * [[Emma Stone]] as Veronica * [[Arthur French (actor)|Arthur French]] as Old man * Brooke Davis as Tall lady * Josh Shuman as Short man ====iBabe==== * Directed by [[Steven Brill (scriptwriter)|Steven Brill]], written by Claes Kjellstrom & Jonas Wittenmark & Tobias Carlson and Rocky Russo & Jeremy Sosenko A developing company is having a meeting in their headquarters over their newly released product, the "iBabe", a life-sized, realistic replica of a nude woman which functions as an MP3 player. The boss listens to his various workers argue over the placement of a fan that was built into the genital region of the iBabe, which is cutting off the penises of teenage boys who attempt to have sex with them. The board members then agree to strongly emphasize the dangers of the product via its new commercials. ;Cast * [[Richard Gere]] as Boss * [[Kate Bosworth]] as Arlene * [[Jack McBrayer]] as Brian * [[Aasif Mandvi]] as Robert * Darby Lynn Totten as Woman * Marc Ambrose as Chappy * Cathy Cliften as iBabe #1 * Cherina Monteniques Scott as iBabe #2 * Zach Lasry as Boy ====Super Hero Speed Dating==== * Co-edited and directed by James Duffy and written by Will Carlough [[Dick Grayson|Robin]] and his cohort [[Batman]] are in [[Gotham City]] at a speed dating event seeking out a bomb threat by their nemesis [[Penguin (character)|Penguin]]. While Robin attempts to connect with various women through speed dating including Stacey, [[Lois Lane]], and [[Supergirl (Kara Zor-El)|Supergirl]], Batman encounters his ex [[Wonder Woman]] and attempts to stop Penguin from detonating Supergirl, who later turns out to be the [[Riddler]] in disguise, which Batman already knew and was screwing with Robin, who kissed "her" moments before Batman exposed the Riddler's ruse. Lois Lane tells Robin on their speed date that six months ago she broke up with [[Superman]], who turns out to be a stalker/sexual predator by ejaculating on her bedroom window. Further playing with the popular discussion of Superman's sperm, like in the film [[Mallrats]], Lois Lane reveals that he uses his semen as hair gel to keep the spit curl consistent. ;Cast * [[Justin Long]] as [[Dick Grayson|Robin]] * [[Jason Sudeikis]] as [[Batman]] * [[Uma Thurman]] as [[Lois Lane]] * [[Bobby Cannavale]] as [[Superman]] * [[Kristen Bell]] as [[Supergirl (Kara Zor-El)|Supergirl]] * [[John Hodgman]] as [[Penguin (character)|The Penguin]] * [[Leslie Bibb]] as [[Wonder Woman]] * Will Carlough as [[Riddler]] * [[Katrina Bowden]] as Stacey ====Machine Kids==== * Written, co-edited, and directed by Jonathan van Tulleken A faux-[[Public service announcement]] about children stuck in machines and how adults' criticism of these particular machines affect the feelings of the children stuck inside them.

When they begin to kiss, his older brother Mikey enters the living room and makes fun of them. Amanda then discovers she is [[menstruating]] and tries to hide it. When Nathan sees blood on her pants, he panics and believes her to be bleeding to death. He causes a debacle, later including Nathan and Mikey's father Steve and Amanda's father. Amanda calls them out on their stupidity, embarrassed to know that she's getting her first period in front of them and they don't know what to do about it. When she leaves with her father, Nathan yells that the process of keeping the lining of her internal organs intact by inserting his erect phallus into her vagina is much too complicated and Mikey agrees. Steve cheers them up by farting in front of them. As Mikey goes to the bathroom, Nathan and Steve watch a game on television, which has a very graphic [[Tampax]] commercial in which a girl gets eaten by a [[shark]] due to her menstruating. ;Cast * [[Christopher Mintz-Plasse]] as Mikey * [[Chloë Grace Moretz]] as Amanda * [[Jimmy Bennett]] as Nathan * [[Patrick Warburton]] as Steve (Nathan and Mikey's father) * [[Matt Walsh (comedian)|Matt Walsh]] as Amanda's father ====Happy Birthday==== * Directed by [[Brett Ratner]], written by Jacob Fleisher Pete captures a [[leprechaun]] for his roommate Brian as a birthday present. Tying the leprechaun up in the basement, they demand he give them a pot of gold. The obscene leprechaun threatens that his brother is coming to save him. When he arrives, Brian and Pete are shot at but ultimately kill both leprechauns. At the end of the segment, Pete reveals he has also caught a [[fairy]] who performs [[fellatio]] for gold coins. ;Cast * [[Gerard Butler]] as Leprechaun #1, Leprechaun #2 * [[Johnny Knoxville]] as Pete * [[Seann William Scott]] as Brian * [[Esti Ginzburg]] as Storybook fairy ====Truth or Dare==== * Produced and directed by Peter Farrelly, written by Greg Pritikin Donald and Emily are on a date together at a Mexican restaurant. Tired of typical first dates, Emily challenges Donald to a game of truth or dare. She dares him to grab a man's buttocks, and he follows with daring her to blow out the birthday candles on a blind boy's cake. The game rapidly escalates to extremes, in which both of them get plastic surgery and tattoos, and humiliate themselves. When Donald and Emily arrive back at Emily's apartment, they praise their date. Donald tries to kiss her, but she rejects him, claiming she's not attracted to Asian men (which he was surgically altered to resemble). She was joking and invites him to have sex with her as she shows him her enlarged breasts. ;Cast * [[Halle Berry]] as Emily * [[Stephen Merchant]] as Donald * [[Sayed Badreya]] as Large man * [[Snooki]] as Herself * Caryl West as Waitress * [[Ricki Noel Lander]] as Nurse Elizabeth * Paloma Felisberto as Bachelorette party girl * Jasper Grey as Patron * Benny Harris as Blanco the bartender * [[Zen Gesner]] as Stripper ====Victory's Glory==== * Directed by [[Rusty Cundieff]], written by Rocky Russo & Jeremy Sosenko Set in 1959, Coach Jackson is lecturing his all-black basketball team before their first game against an all-white team. Worried about losing the game, the timid players are lectured by the coach about their superiority in the sport over their white counterparts, which he expresses vulgarly. When the game ensues, the all-white team loses miserably yet rejoices in a single point they earn. ;Cast * [[Terrence Howard]] as Coach Jackson * Aaron Jennings as Anthony * [[Corey Brewer]] as Wallace * [[Jared Dudley]] as Moses * [[Larry Sanders (basketball)|Larry Sanders]] as Bishop * [[Jay Ellis]] as Lucious * Brian Flaccus as White guy #1 * [[Brett Davern]] as White guy #2 * Evan Dumouchel as White guy #3 * Sean Rosales as White guy #4 * Logan Holladay as White guy #5 * Mandy Kowalski as Cheerleader * [[Eric Stuart]] as Narrator ====Beezel==== * Written and directed by [[James Gunn]] Played mid-credits, Amy worries that her boyfriend Anson's animated cat Beezel is coming between them. Beezel seems to detest Amy and anyone who comes between him and Anson, but he only sees Beezel as innocent. One day, Amy witnesses Beezel masturbating to summer vacation photos of Anson in a swimsuit. He attacks and violently urinates on her. Anson still finds his pet innocent but Amy threatens to leave if he doesn't get rid of Beezel. Caring more about his relationship, he agrees to find a new home for him. That night, from a closet, Beezel tearfully watches the couple make love (whilst [[sodomy|sodomizing]] himself with a hairbrush and [[dry humping]] a stuffed teddy bear). The next day when it comes time to take Beezel away, he is nowhere to be found. Amy goes outside to look. Beezel then runs her over with a truck and attempts to kill her with a shotgun, but she chases him into the street and begins beating him with a shovel, which is witnessed by a group of children attending a birthday party at a neighboring house. When Anson approaches to see what is happening, Amy tries to explain Beezel's motives. He acts innocent and Anson sides with his cat. The children of the party then attack and murder Amy for beating up Beezel, stabbing her with plastic forks. Anson grabs him, as Beezel again fantasizes about [[French kiss]]ing his owner. ;Cast * [[Elizabeth Banks]] as Amy * [[Josh Duhamel]] as Anson * [[Emily Alyn Lind]] as Birthday girl * Michelle Gunn as Mommy * [[Christina Linhardt]] as Party clown ====Find Our Daughter==== * Written and directed by [[Bob Odenkirk]] In this segment that was cut from the film, Maude and George are looking for their breast-flashing daughter Susie with the help of the private eye, who is behind the camera with only one clue which is a small video that features their daughter. The scene was included as an extra on the DVD and Blu-ray release. ;Cast * [[Julianne Moore]] as Maude * [[Tony Shalhoub]] as George * Jordanna Taylor as Susie * [[Bob Odenkirk]] as Private Investigator ====The Apprentice==== * Written and directed by Steve Baker and Damon Escott The second segment cut from the film follows Wayne, a shy apprentice mortician who is secretly a necrophiliac at the hospital. One night, a body he's having sex with is brought back to life from the pressure of his thrusts. His supervisor Bob suddenly walks in and believes Wayne has performed a life-saving operation of some kind. The staff at the hospital and the media congratulate him while a news reporter asks what he did to save her. Unable to conjure an answer, one of the cops on scene tells everyone else they can just watch the security tapes to find out. As they rush to the security room, Wayne is given a personal thanks by the girl he revived, upon which he responds with an awkward "You're welcome".<ref>{{cite web |url=http://moviehole.net/201024475anton-yelchin-is-the-apprentice |title=Anton Yelchin is The Apprentice |date=April 19, 2010 |website=Moviehole.net |access-date=July 30, 2017}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3448498/ |title=The Apprentice (2014) |website=IMDb.com |access-date=July 30, 2017}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://vimeo.com/133183116 |title=The Apprentice |first=Maria |last=Volk |date=July 10, 2015 |website=[[Vimeo]] |access-date=July 30, 2017}}</ref> Unlike ''Find Our Daughter'', this segment was not included in the DVD or Blu-ray release<ref name="comicmix.com">{{cite web |url=http://www.comicmix.com/2013/06/24/review-movie-43/ |title=Review: Movie 43 |first=Robert |last=Greenberger |date=June 24, 2013 |website=ComicMix |access-date=July 30, 2017}}</ref> and instead premiered at the 2014 LA Comedy Festival.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3448498/releaseinfo |title=The Apprentice (2014): Release Info |website=IMDb.com |access-date=July 30, 2017}}</ref> ;Cast * [[Anton Yelchin]] as Wayne * [[Shane Jacobson]] as Bob * Maria Volk as Girl * Christopher Kirby as Cop ==Production== ===Development=== Wessler first came up with the idea for an outrageous comedy made up of several short films in the early 2000s. "It's like ''[[Funny or Die]]'', only if you could go crazy," judged Farrelly, "because with ''Funny or Die'', there are certain limits. And we just wanted to do that kind of short and go much further than that." Charlie Wessler affirmed that he "wanted to make a ''[[Kentucky Fried Movie]]'' for the modern age".<ref name="NYPost">{{cite news |title='Movie 43' is an ungodly gross-out epic that Hollywood's A-list wants to forget |last=Callahan |first=Maureen |url=http://www.nypost.com/p/news/national/the_ungodly_gross_out_epic_wood_mfCWrFl3qus9d0e1CRNWZN |date=January 20, 2013 |newspaper=[[The New York Post]] |access-date=February 2, 2013}}</ref> Wessler then recruited three pairs of directors—[[Trey Parker]] and [[Matt Stone]], Peter and Bobby Farrelly, and [[David Zucker (filmmaker)|David]] and [[Jerry Zucker (film director)|Jerry Zucker]]—to sign on to write and direct one-third of the project each. He then began working out a deal with a studio for the project, but the project did not stick. "They ended up calling me about a month after we started negotiating the deal and said 'we can't do it' because they had political pressure to not make R-rated movies that were marketed to teenagers," claimed Wessler. He then went to multiple other studios, but, according to Wessler, "no one could understand what [he] was trying to do".<ref name="NYPost"/> In 2009, Peter Farrelly and producer John Penotti took their pitch—along with about 60 scripts for the vignettes—to [[Relativity Media]]. At that meeting, Wessler, Penotti, and Farrelly presented one short that they already had shot, starring Kate Winslet as a woman going on a blind date with a seemingly successful and handsome Hugh Jackman. "They just looked at me and said, 'Go for it,'" Wessler told ''[[The Hollywood Reporter]]''. "It takes a lot of balls to make something that is not conventional." Relativity provided $6 million for the film, but no other studio would sign on. "Other potential backers", Farrelly revealed, "didn't believe it could happen—a movie with Kate Winslet for $6 million?"<ref name="NYPost"/> The film officially began [[principal photography]] in March 2010, but due to its large cast, producer/director Farrelly told ''[[Entertainment Weekly]]'' that "This movie was made over four years, and they just had to wait for a year or two years for different actors. They would shoot for a week, and shut down for several months. Same thing with the directors. It was the type of movie you could come back to."

Many turned down the project. "Most agents would avoid me because they knew what I wanted to do—what agent wants to book their big client in a no pay, $800-a-day, two-day shoot?" he said. "The truth is, I had a lot of friends who were in this movie. And if they didn't say yes, this movie wouldn't have gotten made." In the end, most of the actors were willing to take part because the film only required a few days of their time and often allowed them to play a character outside of their wheelhouse.<ref name="NYPost"/> [[Hugh Jackman]] was the first actor Wessler cast. He met the star at a wedding and then called him some time later and pitched him the short. Jackman read the script and agreed to be a part of the film. "He called me back I think 24 hours later and said, 'Yeah I wanna do this,' which I think is, quite frankly, incredibly ballsy. Because you could be made a fool of, or you could look silly, and there will be people who say, 'That's crazy; he should never have done it.'"<ref name="NYPost"/> After talking to the multiple agents of [[Kate Winslet]], she eventually agreed to take part. The Winslet-Jackman sketch was shot shortly after, and became the reel to attract other A-list stars.<ref name="NYPost"/> [[John Hodgman]], who plays opposite [[Justin Long]] in one sketch, signed on with no knowledge of the project. Long, Hodgman's co-star in the long-running [[Get a Mac]] series of [[Apple Inc.|Apple]] commercials, asked him to do the project, and he then signed on, without still knowing too much. Hodgman said, "I got an e-mail from Justin that said, 'I'm going to be dressing up as Robin again. Do you want to dress up as the Penguin?' And I said yes. Without even realizing cameras would be involved, or that it would be a movie."<ref name="NYPost"/> [[James Gunn]] revealed during a [[Facebook]] Q&A that he was convinced to do the film by [[Elizabeth Banks]] and to "blame her" for it. He added "I didn't even get to edit that stupid thing!" He also has never seen the film.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.facebook.com/jgunn/videos/10154923971416157/|title=Hi everyone.

In fact, some stars hedged: [[Richard Gere]], a friend of Wessler's, said yes—but also said he would not be available for more than a year. So Wessler waited him out, convinced his sketch was good. Gere eventually called Wessler and told him he was free to shoot, on just a couple of conditions: they had to do it in four days, and they needed to relocate the shoot from [[Los Angeles]] to [[New York City]].<ref name="NYPost"/> "They clearly wanted out!" judged Farrelly. "But we wouldn't let them. The strategy was simple: 'Wait for them. Shoot when they want to shoot. Guilt them to death.' It didn't work on everyone." [[Colin Farrell]] initially agreed to be in the Butler leprechaun sketch—as Butler's brother, also a leprechaun—but then he backed out and [[Gerard Butler]] did the sketch by himself. Farrelly said that when he approached [[George Clooney]] about playing himself in a sketch (the gag was that Clooney is bad at picking up women), Clooney told him "No fucking way."<ref name="NYPost"/> There were two sketches cut from the film that were originally shown during a [[test screening]]; one that starred [[Anton Yelchin]] as a [[necrophilia]]c mortician who worked at a hospital and had sex with the dead female bodies, and another starring [[Julianne Moore]] and [[Tony Shalhoub]] as a married couple being interviewed by a [[detective]] about their missing daughter.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1333125/board/thread/209996584?d=209996855&p=1#209996855 |title=Re: Who Directed what Skits? |website=IMDb}}</ref> Producer Penotti said that the sketches would be seen on the DVD and Blu-ray Disc releases of the film,<ref name="NYPost"/> however only the latter was included in the release.<ref name="comicmix.com"/> Because the filmmakers worked around the stars' schedules, the filming of the whole movie took several years. While so many A-list actors were on board, most were not completely aware of what other sketches would be included in the film, which features thirteen vignettes tied together by a story of a mad screenwriter (Quaid) pitching ideas to a movie producer (Kinnear). Penotti said many of the actors did not ask many questions about what else was going on in the film. "They were attracted to their script, and as long as that tickled their funnybone, that was enough," he revealed.<ref name="NYPost"/><ref name="HR-415196"/> ==Promotion== The title of the film, ''Movie 43'' has no meaning. Farrelly heard his son talking with friends about a film called "Movie 43", but when Farrelly discovered the film did not exist, he cribbed the name.<ref name="NYPost"/> Relativity did little to promote the film and none of the cast members did any promotion of the film. The film was not screened for critics in advance.

Lois Lane tells Robin on their speed date that six months ago she broke up with [[Superman]], who turns out to be a stalker/sexual predator by ejaculating on her bedroom window. Further playing with the popular discussion of Superman's sperm, like in the film [[Mallrats]], Lois Lane reveals that he uses his semen as hair gel to keep the spit curl consistent. - -;Cast -* [[Justin Long]] as [[Dick Grayson|Robin]] -* [[Jason Sudeikis]] as [[Batman]] -* [[Uma Thurman]] as [[Lois Lane]] -* [[Bobby Cannavale]] as [[Superman]] -* [[Kristen Bell]] as [[Supergirl (Kara Zor-El)|Supergirl]] -* [[John Hodgman]] as [[Penguin (character)|The Penguin]] -* [[Leslie Bibb]] as [[Wonder Woman]] -* Will Carlough as [[Riddler]] -* [[Katrina Bowden]] as Stacey - -====Machine Kids==== -* Written, co-edited, and directed by Jonathan van Tulleken - -A faux-[[Public service announcement]] about children stuck in machines and how adults' criticism of these particular machines affect the feelings of the children stuck inside them.

When they begin to kiss, his older brother Mikey enters the living room and makes fun of them. Amanda then discovers she is [[menstruating]] and tries to hide it. When Nathan sees blood on her pants, he panics and believes her to be bleeding to death. He causes a debacle, later including Nathan and Mikey's father Steve and Amanda's father. - -Amanda calls them out on their stupidity, embarrassed to know that she's getting her first period in front of them and they don't know what to do about it. When she leaves with her father, Nathan yells that the process of keeping the lining of her internal organs intact by inserting his erect phallus into her vagina is much too complicated and Mikey agrees.

The game rapidly escalates to extremes, in which both of them get plastic surgery and tattoos, and humiliate themselves. - -When Donald and Emily arrive back at Emily's apartment, they praise their date. Donald tries to kiss her, but she rejects him, claiming she's not attracted to Asian men (which he was surgically altered to resemble).

Beezel seems to detest Amy and anyone who comes between him and Anson, but he only sees Beezel as innocent. One day, Amy witnesses Beezel masturbating to summer vacation photos of Anson in a swimsuit. He attacks and violently urinates on her. - -Anson still finds his pet innocent but Amy threatens to leave if he doesn't get rid of Beezel. Caring more about his relationship, he agrees to find a new home for him. That night, from a closet, Beezel tearfully watches the couple make love (whilst [[sodomy|sodomizing]] himself with a hairbrush and [[dry humping]] a stuffed teddy bear). - -The next day when it comes time to take Beezel away, he is nowhere to be found. Amy goes outside to look. Beezel then runs her over with a truck and attempts to kill her with a shotgun, but she chases him into the street and begins beating him with a shovel, which is witnessed by a group of children attending a birthday party at a neighboring house. - -When Anson approaches to see what is happening, Amy tries to explain Beezel's motives. He acts innocent and Anson sides with his cat. The children of the party then attack and murder Amy for beating up Beezel, stabbing her with plastic forks. Anson grabs him, as Beezel again fantasizes about [[French kiss]]ing his owner. - -;Cast -* [[Elizabeth Banks]] as Amy -* [[Josh Duhamel]] as Anson -* [[Emily Alyn Lind]] as Birthday girl -* Michelle Gunn as Mommy -* [[Christina Linhardt]] as Party clown - -====Find Our Daughter==== -* Written and directed by [[Bob Odenkirk]] - -In this segment that was cut from the film, Maude and George are looking for their breast-flashing daughter Susie with the help of the private eye, who is behind the camera with only one clue which is a small video that features their daughter.

One night, a body he's having sex with is brought back to life from the pressure of his thrusts. His supervisor Bob suddenly walks in and believes Wayne has performed a life-saving operation of some kind. The staff at the hospital and the media congratulate him while a news reporter asks what he did to save her. - -Unable to conjure an answer, one of the cops on scene tells everyone else they can just watch the security tapes to find out. As they rush to the security room, Wayne is given a personal thanks by the girl he revived, upon which he responds with an awkward "You're welcome".<ref>{{cite web |url=http://moviehole.net/201024475anton-yelchin-is-the-apprentice |title=Anton Yelchin is The Apprentice |date=April 19, 2010 |website=Moviehole.net |access-date=July 30, 2017}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3448498/ |title=The Apprentice (2014) |website=IMDb.com |access-date=July 30, 2017}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://vimeo.com/133183116 |title=The Apprentice |first=Maria |last=Volk |date=July 10, 2015 |website=[[Vimeo]] |access-date=July 30, 2017}}</ref> Unlike ''Find Our Daughter'', this segment was not included in the DVD or Blu-ray release<ref name="comicmix.com">{{cite web |url=http://www.comicmix.com/2013/06/24/review-movie-43/ |title=Review: Movie 43 |first=Robert |last=Greenberger |date=June 24, 2013 |website=ComicMix |access-date=July 30, 2017}}</ref> and instead premiered at the 2014 LA Comedy Festival.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3448498/releaseinfo |title=The Apprentice (2014): Release Info |website=IMDb.com |access-date=July 30, 2017}}</ref> - -;Cast -* [[Anton Yelchin]] as Wayne -* [[Shane Jacobson]] as Bob -* Maria Volk as Girl -* Christopher Kirby as Cop - -==Production== -===Development=== -Wessler first came up with the idea for an outrageous comedy made up of several short films in the early 2000s. "It's like ''[[Funny or Die]]'', only if you could go crazy," judged Farrelly, "because with ''Funny or Die'', there are certain limits. And we just wanted to do that kind of short and go much further than that." Charlie Wessler affirmed that he "wanted to make a ''[[Kentucky Fried Movie]]'' for the modern age".<ref name="NYPost">{{cite news |title='Movie 43' is an ungodly gross-out epic that Hollywood's A-list wants to forget |last=Callahan |first=Maureen |url=http://www.nypost.com/p/news/national/the_ungodly_gross_out_epic_wood_mfCWrFl3qus9d0e1CRNWZN |date=January 20, 2013 |newspaper=[[The New York Post]] |access-date=February 2, 2013}}</ref> - -Wessler then recruited three pairs of directors—[[Trey Parker]] and [[Matt Stone]], Peter and Bobby Farrelly, and [[David Zucker (filmmaker)|David]] and [[Jerry Zucker (film director)|Jerry Zucker]]—to sign on to write and direct one-third of the project each. He then began working out a deal with a studio for the project, but the project did not stick. "They ended up calling me about a month after we started negotiating the deal and said 'we can't do it' because they had political pressure to not make R-rated movies that were marketed to teenagers," claimed Wessler. He then went to multiple other studios, but, according to Wessler, "no one could understand what [he] was trying to do".<ref name="NYPost"/> - -In 2009, Peter Farrelly and producer John Penotti took their pitch—along with about 60 scripts for the vignettes—to [[Relativity Media]]. At that meeting, Wessler, Penotti, and Farrelly presented one short that they already had shot, starring Kate Winslet as a woman going on a blind date with a seemingly successful and handsome Hugh Jackman. "They just looked at me and said, 'Go for it,'" Wessler told ''[[The Hollywood Reporter]]''. "It takes a lot of balls to make something that is not conventional." Relativity provided $6 million for the film, but no other studio would sign on. "Other potential backers", Farrelly revealed, "didn't believe it could happen—a movie with Kate Winslet for $6 million?"<ref name="NYPost"/> - -The film officially began [[principal photography]] in March 2010, but due to its large cast, producer/director Farrelly told ''[[Entertainment Weekly]]'' that "This movie was made over four years, and they just had to wait for a year or two years for different actors. They would shoot for a week, and shut down for several months. Same thing with the directors. It was the type of movie you could come back to."

Many turned down the project. -"Most agents would avoid me because they knew what I wanted to do—what agent wants to book their big client in a no pay, $800-a-day, two-day shoot?" he said. "The truth is, I had a lot of friends who were in this movie. And if they didn't say yes, this movie wouldn't have gotten made." In the end, most of the actors were willing to take part because the film only required a few days of their time and often allowed them to play a character outside of their wheelhouse.<ref name="NYPost"/> - -[[Hugh Jackman]] was the first actor Wessler cast. He met the star at a wedding and then called him some time later and pitched him the short. Jackman read the script and agreed to be a part of the film. "He called me back I think 24 hours later and said, 'Yeah I wanna do this,' which I think is, quite frankly, incredibly ballsy. Because you could be made a fool of, or you could look silly, and there will be people who say, 'That's crazy; he should never have done it.'"<ref name="NYPost"/> - -After talking to the multiple agents of [[Kate Winslet]], she eventually agreed to take part. The Winslet-Jackman sketch was shot shortly after, and became the reel to attract other A-list stars.<ref name="NYPost"/> - -[[John Hodgman]], who plays opposite [[Justin Long]] in one sketch, signed on with no knowledge of the project. Long, Hodgman's co-star in the long-running [[Get a Mac]] series of [[Apple Inc.|Apple]] commercials, asked him to do the project, and he then signed on, without still knowing too much. Hodgman said, "I got an e-mail from Justin that said, 'I'm going to be dressing up as Robin again. Do you want to dress up as the Penguin?' And I said yes. Without even realizing cameras would be involved, or that it would be a movie."<ref name="NYPost"/> - -[[James Gunn]] revealed during a [[Facebook]] Q&A that he was convinced to do the film by [[Elizabeth Banks]] and to "blame her" for it.

In fact, some stars hedged: [[Richard Gere]], a friend of Wessler's, said yes—but also said he would not be available for more than a year. So Wessler waited him out, convinced his sketch was good. Gere eventually called Wessler and told him he was free to shoot, on just a couple of conditions: they had to do it in four days, and they needed to relocate the shoot from [[Los Angeles]] to [[New York City]].<ref name="NYPost"/> - -"They clearly wanted out!" judged Farrelly. "But we wouldn't let them. The strategy was simple: 'Wait for them. Shoot when they want to shoot. Guilt them to death.' It didn't work on everyone." [[Colin Farrell]] initially agreed to be in the Butler leprechaun sketch—as Butler's brother, also a leprechaun—but then he backed out and [[Gerard Butler]] did the sketch by himself. Farrelly said that when he approached [[George Clooney]] about playing himself in a sketch (the gag was that Clooney is bad at picking up women), Clooney told him "No fucking way."<ref name="NYPost"/> There were two sketches cut from the film that were originally shown during a [[test screening]]; one that starred [[Anton Yelchin]] as a [[necrophilia]]c mortician who worked at a hospital and had sex with the dead female bodies, and another starring [[Julianne Moore]] and [[Tony Shalhoub]] as a married couple being interviewed by a [[detective]] about their missing daughter.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1333125/board/thread/209996584?d=209996855&p=1#209996855 |title=Re: Who Directed what Skits? |website=IMDb}}</ref> Producer Penotti said that the sketches would be seen on the DVD and Blu-ray Disc releases of the film,<ref name="NYPost"/> however only the latter was included in the release.<ref name="comicmix.com"/> - -Because the filmmakers worked around the stars' schedules, the filming of the whole movie took several years. While so many A-list actors were on board, most were not completely aware of what other sketches would be included in the film, which features thirteen vignettes tied together by a story of a mad screenwriter (Quaid) pitching ideas to a movie producer (Kinnear). Penotti said many of the actors did not ask many questions about what else was going on in the film. -"They were attracted to their script, and as long as that tickled their funnybone, that was enough," he revealed.<ref name="NYPost"/><ref name="HR-415196"/> - -==Promotion== -The title of the film, ''Movie 43'' has no meaning. Farrelly heard his son talking with friends about a film called "Movie 43", but when Farrelly discovered the film did not exist, he cribbed the name.<ref name="NYPost"/> - -Relativity did little to promote the film and none of the cast members did any promotion of the film. The film was not screened for critics in advance. "The slapdash title, the lack of promotion and advance screenings, the release date—none of it bodes well," opined ''Entertainment Weekly'' senior editor Thom Geier. "January is usually where movies go to die," Geier argued. "And to go by the trailer—the only option—the content seems dated."
