I just saw like, 18 ads in the span of an hour.

I am TIRED of spoof movies, once they were an art a la Mel Brooks and Airplane - now any idiot thinks he can poke fun at a movie. It is not hilarious at all. Scary Movie 3,4, Epic Movie, Date Movie, this schiza...I'm about to go on a Dennis Miller rant here.

Easywolf32 · 12-27-2007, 01:18 AM

Can you imagine someone buying that? lol

I'll watch it in a year when it comes on an HBO channel.

I never bought into that whole Airplane, Hot Shots stupidity either.....

damandan05 · 12-27-2007, 01:19 AM

anything after the original scary movie, have been horrendous. Why couldn't they stop with that. I know many still love these but I simply roll my eyes, and forget about it.

JJ · 12-27-2007, 01:19 AM

What I can't imagine is anyone paying good money to see this. I wouldn't even watch a free copy.

MCWHAMMER · 12-27-2007, 01:22 AM

That is great. The commercial looks much funnier than the previous trailers for stuff like Epic Movie and Date Movie.

I will definitely see this one... Probably maybe definitely.

The Spears spoof is well done. Everyone wants to push her into a well.

Thanks for posting it partner.

I agree, they are annoying.

I was almost offended when I saw the ad spoofing 300.

Well, southpark did and I thought that was prety funny.

Blu As Hell · 12-27-2007, 01:24 AM

That sh*t doesn't look funny at all....what happened to the days where a spoof movie actually had writers that were not only funny but clever? "Airplane" anyone?

Oh, I forgot about South Park - that does it quite well, lol.

I mentioned Airplane too, Blu - great stuff.

Im fighting the urge of my rant again...trying to kill my inner Dennis Miller.

Being a big fan of '300' and a follower of contemporary pop-culture, I can see where this might hold a bit of entertainment value for ONLY ONE VIEWING! And I certainly won't pay more then a rental fee to see it.

And I agree with most that the "spoofing" trend has long since fallen apart. It was right after the 'Hot Shot' series and 'National Lampoons Loaded Weapon I'.

mo_jt · 12-27-2007, 01:28 AM

Redbox for $1.00 for this one!

JJ · 12-27-2007, 01:29 AM

Petra, I suppose you will have seen the Family Guy 300 spoof on Youtube? That - is worthwhile. For 2 minutes. lol.
