Meet the Spartans - Epic Scary 300 Movie Film - Page 4

Kerensky287 · 02-02-2008, 01:40 AM

Okay, I'm not going to see this anymore. I thought the name was clever, and I thought a 300 parody would be good, but.... well, if this is anything like Epic Movie, then I'll pass. Epic Movie is the worst movie I've ever seen, bar none.

The first couple of Scary Movies had their moments, but then they all just got crappy.

General consensus says that Scary Movie was funny momentarily for doing a couple of amusing things for the first time, years ago.

And yeah, I think I just wanted to like Meet the Spartans because it had yards of material for parody if they had done it correctly.

I can't believe I saw this movie.

Moreso, I can't believe I actually expected it to be funny.

The only time I laughed was when that guy made a wookie noise, and I mean come on, who doesn't laugh every time they see a grown make make wookie noises?

The movie was shit, but shit somebody is making a fortune off of. Way to go entertainment industry, giving talentless hacks ridiculous sums of money for damn near a century.

The movie was originally going to be called Epic Movie 2, but they decided to change the name of it when the original Epic Movie got such abysmal ratings.

Anything I want?

He's taking advantage of German tax law to pull off the scheme from The Producers.

Trying? Oh yes... and succeeding. But not at making good movies.

You got served.

Of course, Mad TV jumped the shark when Nicole Sullivan left, so that's not exactly stretching it. :p

Mad TV was not funny. Mad TV was an exercise in frustration and rage, because I wanted to punch all the 'funny' characters in the face and take their fucking wallets.

Damn it, that's what this movie was. It was a two hour long Mad TV episode with the flavor of 300.

I just wanted to like all the jokes that had potential (the bluescreen joke especially) so much that it just blinded me.

Tonight I dreamt that I saw the trailer and then the movie. I have not seen the trailer, no intention of seeing the movie and I am in fact so disinterested in it that after waking up I had to go see if there actually was a film called "Meet the Spartans" or if I made that up in my dream, which I was 95% sure I had.

Weird.

Leonidas had a chainsaw for some reason.
