It's the Pimp Train, Pimp Train.

Okay flist, help me out! I've got a genius proposal over at indiemovie and I need your talents to make it a success:

Pitch me your remake: from Hollywood to Indie, from Indie to Hollywood, Foreign to American, spoken word to musical comedy, thriller to tragedy, comedy to black comedy.

Pretend I'm Ari Gold (and for those of you who don't know who Ari Gold is, google Entourage and then bask in the terrifying beauty of Ari and his bad, bad mouth). You need an agent! Pitch me, baby!

(Most succesful pitches can be summed up in a sentence: "It's Rocky meets Pride and Prejudice - a battle of wits, without actual words!!" Yeah, I've got no idea what that would be either, except hilariously bad.)

Go HERE to play!

There're prizes and hilarity to be had!

In a similar vein, my sister and I used to make up fake movie-trailer voiceovers for real movies. And we'd do them in the deep voice like the guy who's now doing Geico commericals.

A few of our favorites:

"What would happen...if you had to spend Seven Years in Tibet...with all those Tibetan people?"

That one, of course, being obvious. This one was for End of Days:

"Together on screen for the first time...Arnold Schwarzenegger...and Satan."

Go right ahead! It was very fun and I'm not sure why we don't do it anymore, except for the obvious "she's got a kid now and is way to busy to mess around with me" explanation. *g*
