Jackass 3 is actually happening

Jackass will return, and in 3D at that. So, if you've ever wanted to see Party Boy's balls bang against the camera in three thrilling dimensions, your weird little prayers have been answered.

Jackass 3 has long been mooted, and it's not hard to see why - compared to the Avatars and Transformers of the industry, a movie about a bunch of braying sadists who videotape themselves inflicting pain on one another is hardly going to break the bank. Plus, obviously, Jackass is hilarious.

Johnny Knoxville and his wanker friends will indeed return; they'll star in Jackass 3-D, to be released in late 2010. Because if any movie requires an extra dimension, it's one in which one of the stars is guaranteed to jam something up their butt.

This news makes me happy, because I love watching morons get paid to try and kill themselves, but also a little sad, because it means our legendary spoof Jackass 3 preview will probably fall down the Google rankings and be lost in the web ether. It still ranks as the most popular thing we've ever done, by which I mean we duped a Sunshine Bus-load of webtards into thinking it was legit. Those that weren't fooled weren't happy, either.
