MOVIE IDEA...

OK. So this wasn`t the best film ever - Mystery Science Theatre, but the idea is what interests me and as I watch `Battle of Los Angeles` on SYFY+1, that idea springs to mind. What fun would it be to watch a movie with a group of good mates, a few beers in hand and ripping the shit out of the bad movies or whatever movie there is. It would be like one of those movie based reviews that you see all over the place, but instead of just reading it, you can watch the film at the same time - except you`ll be watching and hearing a group of 30-something guys give their initial thoughts and feelings about what we`re watching.

[[ I have just had a look on the interweb and I have come across these guys - Film Pigs - I am currently downloading the podcast to hear / see what these guys think. As well as The John Madsen Movie Commentary blog. ]]

So I am watching `Battle of Los Angeles`, well I was as it has just finished. But as I ripped the shit out of it on Facebook, that idea came to me. (As well as others.)

(The ALIEN KILLING MACHINE for `Battle of Los Angeles` looks like an expresso machine gone mad. You know, like that other movie where the machines go mad - Maximum Overdrive.)

(In a film where the ALIENS are mostly airbased, this chick brings a sword to the fight. She probably has seen HEROES a couple of times and thought that HIRO was cool when he wielded his sword.)

(... and then there`s this fella. "Why is it that any writer thinks that ALIENS have three fingers?")

"If someone wrote that piece of shit and pitched it to a studio, who subsequently bought the script and made the film, makes he think that I should be writing tacky scripts like that."  Obviously, my talents could be put to use to (coughs) write these kinds of scripts.  I mean, it`s not that easy to write something like `Battle of Los Angeles` is it?  Hell, if someone buys the script and makes it into a movie then they writer must be laughing all the way to the bank.  I am seriously missing on some pocket money.

"Does anyone have a website or a YouTube account that rips the shit out of movies, where they watch the film and give humorously comments on the film?"  Is there, or will I have to jump on the webnet to have a look?  That sounds like a good idea to me, of course that would mean trying to circle around the legal stuff with copyright and all that stuff, but getting a couple of mates together and having a few beers while we record a funny video watching a crap or average, or below par movie sounds like a Friday night that we all used to de as teenagers.

It`s just an idea is all, but I personally think that it would make for  good website and just for a laugh YouTube channel. Of course it will probably be shutdown within a week or so, because the powers-to-be will have seen it and seen that there are a million and one copyright infringes, leaving us with nothing to stand on and time being wasted on such an endeavour. But it would be good.
