Meet The Spartans?
 
I'm really f***ing sick of these spoof movies. They know that just about any film makes some money with the right advertising (and it helps to have so many idiots in this country), so they give it a 20 million dollar budget, make a ****** movie and come away with millions with what was really not a great turn out.

I mean, Meet The Spartans looks like s***, but the Comebacks makes me wanna kill the dumbasess who wrote this ****. What's ****ing sad is that Epic Movie mades more than TMNT, an actual film...

Don't get me wrong, I love parodies and pop culture references. Look at Ninja Turles: The first three movies, the OT, and the NT are full of them. They're enjoyable because you know not everyone gets it, and it's just a quick line or visual parody that goes by while the plot of the episode/film isn't hindered. I also like other spoof/parody movies too, "Spaceballs", "I'm Gonna Git You Sucka", "Robin Hood: Men In Tights", "CB4", "Hot Fuzz/Shaun of the Dead", "The Hebrew Hammer", and "Austin Powers" among a few others. But this new **** that's coming out is not ****IN FUNNY, and most every dumbass at school and on youtube thinks it's hilarious.

Rant over.

THIS IS SPARTA!

Oh man, I am a master of comedy.

Everyone involved in Scary Movie, Date Movie, Epic Movie and any other Movie in this 'series' needs to be hanged for crimes against humanity.

Agreed. I think they've run the joke into the ground long enough.

I saw the trailer for this recently, it made me want to eat a bowl of razor blades while kicking babies and attempting to make love to sand paper...I experience the same feeling anytime I walk into a room where people are watching MTV

That would imply there was a joke to begin with.

I agree with what everyone here has said. These spoofs are ridiculously awful.

Having said that, there is one I enjoy more than any other because it was actually funny..and that is "Not another Teen Movie."

Jester 01-21-2008 01:39 PM

But Not Another Ten Movie is smarter than most of these spoofs. It has a coherent story dispite all the parody.

You just bought yourself another Saturday. You want another?

jeff the cheff 01-21-2008 02:07 PM

Eh, I'm not too bothered by these anymore, I'm used to the fact that these movies come out. I just won't see it.

Jester 01-21-2008 04:48 PM

I just hope more people feel the same Jeff. Then these movies will stop being made.

NO!

Wow. Is this the thread where everyone with a giant razor-dick shoved up their ass meets?

Talk about over-exaggeration. You act like these movies raped your mother, killed your father, nailed your dog to the front door and left you on the streets, forced to pleasure old Japanese businessmen to make ends meet for the remainder of your life.

They're just movies. Do they really effect you THAT much? Are the 30 second advertisements that you're "forced" to sit through so bad that you don't have the ability to change the channel!? It's not like anyone is threatening your life and making you see it.

It's just a discussion on a TMNT message board. Does this thread effect you so much that you would go on some stupid ass rant? Were you forced to read this thread, is it so bad that you can't click the back button?

Jester 01-21-2008 07:19 PM

Peanut, must you always come into a thread you would otherwise ignore and piss all over the people who are voicing their opinions?

Peanut 01-21-2008 07:36 PM

I voiced my opinion, jackass. And my opinion is: comparing watching a movie trailer to eating razor blades is f*cking stupid.

You're just sour because I was the first one to sh*t on your stupid movie review thread.

That's right, it's a message board, so I relayed my opinion that a lot of people are over-exaggerating this sh*t. I'd hardly call my meager post a "rant" of any kind.

Ahh, but I didn't compare the to I was simply stating my opinion that I would prefer to eat razorblades rather then view the trailer...So I guess I am comparing the two. Eating razor blades would be more fun and at least twice as intelligent as sitting through that trailer again.

Sure, killing yourself from the inside is smarter than this movie.

And most certainly funnier

Mr. Snackpants 01-21-2008 08:47 PM

This looks like it has movie of the year potential, imo.
