How do they throw these parody flicks together SO quickly?


...AND in so much detail.
What do they DO...go in after the work day has ended on the flicks they're lampooning and use THEIR sets? LoL

They even do the most recent flicks.
I believe I saw Bane (TDKR) on the blu-ray cover.

The question isn't "how" - the question is "with what quality". We will know soon...

I'm pretty sure there's always one on the go. The names seem to be forever changing, so it wouldn't surprise me if it was just a never-ending series of blank templates which they fit to current popular trends as they go on. Which is why Friedberg & Seltzer's 'Greatest Movie Of All Time 3D' has now become 'The Starving Games'. Yup.

There is a history (not in this case) of very low budget films using the sets/props/costumes of earlier blockbuster productions. In the UK, after "Carry on Cleo" pulled this stunt (using stuff from "Cleopatra"), some producers started insisting that items from their film were destroyed after production.

PS. my memory is a bit hazy, so it may have been another 'historical' 'Carry-On' and another earlier historical blockbuster.

a lot of Parodies (especially post Scary Movie 2) get thrown together based on just the Trailers of the real films, which you can usually tell because the spoof becomes a series of Skits strung together and the "jokes" are clearly based on the Trailer material rather than the final film

They ask Weird Al Yankovic for his expertise.

By the looks of this flick, it was probably filmed in 3 days. Possibly funny if you're in Junior High School...



Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.
