Huey Lewis said it best "That's the power of love."
Upfront I should tell you that I’m a huge fan of the Scott Pilgrim books. They’re brilliant, fun, and ring alarmingly true at times. You can tell they hit a chord with Edgar Wright, who directed the new Scott Pilgrim vs. The World movie. What hath Edgar wrought this time? Find out after the jump. (more…)
Marvel at my son’s acting abilities! Okay, so the fact is that he didn’t want to be in the video, and I’m afraid it shows, but, by all means, please enjoy this, the last of our summer horror movie parodies. We had fun, and I hope you had fun watching them.
The Descent, to me, is one of the most terrifying films, I’ve ever seen. My children absolutely love it. When we starting doing this film short series, they requested that we do a parody of The Descent. We came up with this one on the fly, but I still love the results. I hope you like them too. They were very pleased with this one, mostly because it was shot inside of ten minutes.
If you had a red haired daughter, what Stephen King parody would you film? Carrie gets a going over from Canes Venatici, but not too roughly, because that telekinetic young lady scares me! Anyways, this is the fourth of our summer film series, but not the last. hang in there for more in the coming weeks. You seem to like them, and we love doing them.
I know I haven’t been posting much, but that’s going to change very soon, I promise. I’ve been pretty busy in the meantime, what with my children haunting the hallways around here. Literally.
Here’s our Stephen King parody of The Shining, called The Whining. I really hope you like it, as we plan to continue spoofing famous horror films for the next couple of weeks. Or until we get sick of doing it.
Small chidren and a quart strawberry syrup do NOT mix, by the way!
It’s no secret that I really, really hate Twilight. I feel it important as a father to say that my children, not so much. They were more than willing to shoot this parody video for me, which first started written life without them in it, and had a much darker, but equally comic tone. I’m very proud of both my kids in this one, and once again, the camera caught me as director, bitching at everyone about how terrible their acting was, while blowing every one of my lines and turning in a lackluster performance. We’re still pretty happy with the finished product, however, and hope you find it as funny as we did. I present Sonlight.
GODDAMN!!! Bitch about the 80s all you want...but give credit where it's due!
I have to say it. My mind has been elsewhere. Now, you would be thinking that I’m just concentrating on my kids being in town, and you’d be half right, but Summer brings out certain animals in all of us, and occasionally I have to explain to my kids why Daddy was staring at that woman at the pool. So, if you’re anything like me (myopic), then invest in a good pair of sunglasses, and head on out into the world. Seriously! This weekend especially! There’s going to be government sanctioned controlled explosions all over the country to celebrate the French saving our bacon in the Revolutionary War. Also, I promise you, nerdpods, the sun can be your friend. Then again, if you’re anything like me, take sunscreen. And, maybe head to the gym a few times. If you’re not like me, well, then…GET THE HELL OFF MY SITE! Anyways, I was just looking for a reason to post a picture of Phoebe Cates from Fast Time at Ridgemont High. Best. Nude. Scene. EVER!
Because I’m cheap, and, and because I don’t presuppose about movies (especially when it comes to remakes), I took my children off to see the remake of Clash of the Titans. My kids haven’t seen the 1981 original, and I haven’t seen it in several years. As with most things I liked when I was a child, I’m afraid to catch up, lest my adult sensibilities tell me that I was in love with total crap when I was a kid. Nostalgia can kiss my ass! Anyways, have a look at my thoughts concerning the new Clash of the Titans after the jump. (more…)
