Film School Rejects: Disaster Movie Obviously Has Nothing to do with Anything

    I'm definitely going to skip this one!

    I think we've hit an all-time low. Now, instead of watching movies being spoofed a year later, we can see them spoofed a month after they are released in the theater. Did I miss something?

    Worst. Movie. Ever. Seriously. WTF. That trailer entirely consisted of recognizable characters being parodied and then hit with some sort of object. My Kill-O-Meter is about to shatter the glass with rage.

    I'm not sure how universal the hatred for these films is Neil... each film's box office continues to warrant another in the series. They're averaging $80 million worldwide per film... substantially more than the $5 million they probably cost to make. Someone somewhere likes this crap. Probably mostly folks in middle America...

    I'm not sure its entirely appropriate to point at middle America and make a statement that basically says "You're dumb and you like idiotic movies and you're killing cinema." It reeks of "Coastal elitism."
  • Rob Hunter · 1 year ago
    Well I did say "probably".
  • Cinexcellence · 1 year ago
    Is it elitism when it's true? :-)

    Clearly, the people of this country are clinging to Disaster Movie and religion since our economy is tanking, we're fighting a war forever and Neil hasn't come back from the store with my Fritos. How long does it take to drive 10 blocks, Neil? Hurry the eff up.

    Anyway, my problem with the trailer has nothing to do with the random content. It has to do with the bare-bones sets. Those streets had one or two cars on them, and a lone character saying an unfunny line. I can understand cutting the budget in the script department, but can't we at least get some day players for a crowd? Or better Styrofoam for the meteorites? Please?

    Oh, it doesn't matter, because no one will see it. Except me because I'll draw the short straw and have to review it. I hate you, Fate.

    Don't lump me in with the rest of middle America. Sure, I'm from Illinois, but I've never seen any spoof movie aside from the good ones like Top Secret!, the Naked Gun series, and Airplane!.

    Okay yeah, I did see the first two Scary Movie flicks (which I'm still very apologetic for, and will do 20 pushups/situps for penance if asked). But surely searching out movies to see in the theater like Grindhouse, Hatchet, and Diary of the Dead (the latter two I had to drive an hour away to find a theater playing them) make up for those lapses in good judgement, right?

    ummm...WOW. That looks so bad . none of the jokes where funny . And why Would You Make fun Of a DEAD 15 year old. Oh 1 more thing was that Kim Kardashin's sister ?

    Just keep telling yourself Friedberg and Seltzer intentionally named this "Disaster Movie" because they know it will be exactly that, a disaster of a movie. If you can't do that, then I look forward to seeing you in the loony bin.
  • Cole Abaius · 1 year ago
    I'll look forward to seeing everyone in the loony bin regardless, and no, that's actually Kim Kardashian herself. In the flesh!
