Glengarry parody trailer
It's eight months old, yes -- probably old news to most of the HE wiseacres -- and I remember seeing something like this a while ago...but not this precise one.

99% of the fan-made trailers on youtube are garbage but that one is solid gold

So what are the best of these?
Shining
Glen & Gary & Glen & Ross
Toy Story 2: Requiem
10 Things I Hate About Commandments
I wouldn't put Must Love Jaws on the list.

It's just makes me want to watch the real movie. "You stupid fucking cunt, you fairy."
Actually, Sean, I think Shining is still the best one.

Woah, I left a comment and it disappeared into the ether. I wonder if I've finally been blacklisted on H-E.
If you get blacklisted, will Jeff tell you?
Will you hear it over the sound of a tree falling in the forest?

That was tears in my eyes funny.
But Hollywood keeps making mockable trailers exactly like this.

Holy God.
The last 30 seconds of "Must Love Jaws" is probably the funniest thing I've ever seen.

"No...."

You have really weird taste,Hash. I didn't think that's funny. I don't think that's funny at all, I'm sorry. Shining is the best one.

I always liked "10 Things I Hate About Commandments," but mostly because of the beginning, with the Usher song and the timing with the harem dancers.
I also like the narration. "At Pharaoh High, Ramses was King, until..."

To tie this in with yesterday's discussion of serial killer subtext to recent comedies, someone has done exactly that with 40 YEAR OLD VIRGIN.

Have to say that "SHINY" is still tops, but the "10 THINGS" one is pretty close second.

Zimmergirl, how can you not even chuckle when Brody is yelling "Yeeeaaaahhhhhahaha!" as Quint is getting eaten?
Maybe its just me.

When I first saw Baldwin, I thought they were going to be mixing his phone message to his daughter into this trailer.

Jeff, I hadn't seen this, and I love, love, love it. I just watched it three times. So very great.
Thanks.

I kind of like this one for a thriller spin on Sleepless in Seattle.

I like Brokeback to the Future the best, but this is damn fine. Shining is brilliant, but for some reason, I hate the voiceover. Just my two cents.

someone tell me why they went to such trouble getting the best actors they didn't bother with getting a good director?
