HAPPY TURKEY DAY FROM TURKEY SHOOT
11.22.07You guessed it: I’m not working on Thanksgiving. But since it’s Turkey Day, I thought Turkey Shoot was relevant. Enjoy!
Back in the early 80s, the Australian government thought it’d be a good idea to start giving companies a %150 tax break for making movies in Australia. Yup, spend $100 on a movie, and you get a $150 tax break. Then a bunch of movies like Turkey Shoot came out and they stopped doing it. I can’t imagine why.

It's no The Story of Ricky head-crush.
But, I see that the point of the post is that Australia used to give awesome tax breaks, so I digress.
Maybe the dingo ate your baby….
"You must have me confused with David Selznick. I don't make major motion pictures; I make crap."
Ah the 80s such an amazing time for crap cinema. Money laundering schemes, tax write offs, student films, and of course cocaine, helped to bring to light more Hollywood abortions than an era in the history of film making.
That seemed pretty cool… is it just me? I might need to track that down.
Yeah… will they get away? What type of guns does that airplane have? Is this how Peter Jackson got his start?
OLIVIA HUSSEY!
Hey! There is a comment by me from 2 months ago! I am living history…
Head go Splody!
Lance you ignorant slut! What about your loyal fans who aren’t in the USA? Huh? Huh? Well?!
Whoa. I’m seriously confused know. Whats wrong? I need to lie down.
*now
LOL! I just looked it up and I could buy this on DVD for 11.99 ounds. That is approx. $11.2 billion for you Americans…
I may well purchase it when the price drops a on it. Does anyone know if Turkey Shoot is any good/watchable?
How could it not be good?
Seriously, will someone please explain to me what the fuck is going on here? I’m really confused. Why are there comments already here? Comments that are talking about this post? Help?! I mean FIRE!!
On the other hand (like my balls right now) never trust a movie directed by a trenchard-smith.
And that’s advice you can take to the
gravebank.This time sequence all kindsa crazy.
and from 14th sept?
Whaddafuh?
THANKSGIVING!
It is a repost from Lance when he did a Friday Clip Madness from mid-september. He must be drunk as he cut and pasted bits of it but changed the clip. The he must also have neglected to delete the old comments. Sloppy. Damned Sloppy!
No one told me there was a new post. I was hanging around in the old thread like some kind of looser…..like some kind of nerd who has nothing better to do with his time than sit on a message board, tapping f5 in the vain hope some one will answer….
I’ll continue to visit his site with glee for this insolence.
*whistles and looks away*
Thanks Bryce.
Don’t you finish at 5 affleck…….f5, why of course.
Hmm?
Actually I did tell you affleck. Now apologize!
Thanksgiving!
Damn delays. Now I look like the asshole. Who’s the asshole?! Me.
Affleck just gave thanks. Coincidence?
Thanks….
For nothing!
I finish at 6 woooo, I get to go home and watch myself some wire..
I did nothing and you’re thanking me?
Nice world, God. Nice world.
I’ve been trying to get involved in Heroes.
No.
No, I mean heroin. My bad.
Thanksgiving!
Oh just so you guys know, I saved my boost until after my break..I’ve eaten it now and it was totally worth it.
I’m thankful for my boost.
Afflek/Evil:
Gentlemen, your fancy british talk makes no sense to me.
*american translation: Speak English!! Mutherf*#ker!
Quit you’re space age techno babble
attila the hunnominus.Nictus! Nominus!
Boost is english slang for Butt-plug
"English mother fucker" Detective Freeman – The Wire.
And what’s a "wire"? Lift up your shirts. Are you cop?
Boost = munchies
also, butt-plug.
The wire’s an american show, prolly cancelled.
Dammit, i typed that before I had your afflexplanation of the said wire.
Nom, You know the Wire, surely you know the Wire….the greatest TV show ever…it’s american….it’s on HBO…..please??
Bryce you probably aren’t aware, but cadbury’s totally just brought back the Wispa.
It’s not cancelled either. 5th and final season starts in January
Greatest TV show is West Wing though, fleck.
C’mon.
Wispa’s rule…and in no way shape or form the poor mans aero. A wispa’s shits are better than an aero.
I’ve been getting right into that show Dexter. Anyone watch it?
I just downloaded series one.Errr, I mean I just bought an illeagal copy from Nominus. It’s a cool show.Thanksgiving!
You shut up Evil, you haven’t seen it. West wing is good. Wire is better.
I don’t mean to tell you your business, but the greatest TV show ever was that one show that was pretty much a rip-off of Married with Children, only it also had a puppet with Bobcat Zolthguait’s voice. And only the "Al" character talked to the stuffed animal or could hear it. And he drank beer with it. Anyone know what I’m talking about?
Wispas fucking schooled Aeros in bubbly chocolatiness.
I jsut watched the first season. it was alright. pretty stupid but i liked it.
looking forward to getting round to watching the 2nd season.
Holy shit you britains type fast. Whats your secret. Mercury? It’s Mercury isn’t it?
Yeah, I’m out of date on the whole chocolate (candy) scene over there. When I make it back scientists or anthroplogists can study me as I am introduced to all the mind blowing changes that have happened since I was there. I’ll be like a caveman, unfrozen and brought back to life. Like Encino Man (California Man?) except less rad…
I guess I haven’t seen the wire, unless by the wire you mean the west wing?
Pretty stupid?
Your face is pretty stupid.
They should totally remake california man, Paulie shaw would have to be CGI though…and maybe he should transform too.
The vibes were getting heavy, but why? Was there no communication in the car? Had we descended to the level of dumb beasts?!
Hahaha. Mercury! It’s poisonous nad drives you batshit crazy.
Unless you mean the spirit of freddy murcury, who swifts the typing skills of our tea flavoured digits.
Let’s be honest. He needs the work. But is society ready for him?
and also makes your bum sore….haha bum.
"We’re here to croak a skag baron named savage henry"
Yeah, Freddy Mercury invented a new typing system that is 423% faster but it involves anal play… So win/win really…
Right friends my work day has finished I must leave.
Happy thanksgiving to you Americans…who ever you are…
Rip his lungs out. And eat them!
THANKSGIVING!
See you later affleck. Good luck with rush hour.
I thought Dexter had a brilliant premise but they fucked it by having the serial killer stalker have his own serial killer stalker, who just happens to be….. have you watched it all yet, Bryce? The black cop who doesn’t trust him was fun.
haha SAvage Henry….awesome.
Any way between the 3/4 of us I think we’ve done pretty well. More tomorrow….
I’ll leave with a proper british video

Hey it looks like my evil abe avatar is actaully spewing the word thanksgiving.
And I don’t mean the Rat-directed-fish-outta-water-buddy-cop variety…
Though if someone were to watch rush hour, I would feel inclined to wish them luck.
haha, that’s called an ear warmer.
Yeah don’t tell me Charlie. I haven’t seen all series 1. Series 2 is good though. The heat is on. On the streets.
I also like it a lot as it’s basically CSI Miami but he does most of the murders… I think I’d like to read the books.
Goddamn it, where have i heard that savage henry line? Was that from lock/stock?
Fear and loathing.
Like I feel daily.
Four score and seven years ago, I pinched a loaf then went and got me my dinner.
Ta.
THANKSGIVING!
Abe you seen this?

Fuckin funny. Not really SFW though. Except if you work somewhere like me…
Nom: that show was called "Unhappily Ever After". My favorite episide was the one where every inanimate object in the house was telling the dad to kill his family, which was probably half the episodes, actually.
Geoffrey Pierson > Bruce Greenwood
RARR OLIVIA HUSSEY IS HOT!!! I love me some Turkey Shoot. Classic. Check out Romeo and Juliet and Black Christmas for more Olivia Hussey!

My favorite part of Unhappily Ever After?
You guessed it.
Nikki Cox’s breasts.
Excuses excuses.
happy thanksgiving you fucking gringos
It is our opinion that you Americans should get off of your lazy bottoms and do some work. Some of us would like to be entertained.
and verse vice-a to you xebanataw
I just found "Benders big score" on youtube. Split into pieces, and some are missing, but other users have them. Shit, just go to this page and start clicking. You’ll figure it out. Prolly for a limited time though. THIS MOVIE IS GREAT!!
[www.youtube.com]
Oops, there is the link you wouldn’t wait for me to post.
I saw the whole thing for download on pirate bay. If you are into that sort of thing…
Yeah, I’ve had the movie for 3 days or so. I was just trying to help out those who want a clear conscience, and I just want people to see it. Seriously, a very well written story and plot. Elaborate. It’ll take numerous watches to piece it all together. And then a few more to catch everything. Like USA Toady.
Really, shouldn’t it be France that has "Thanksgiving Day" and The UK and US should have a "Thanksreceiving Day"?
And Germany would have a "YeahSorryaboutthat Day".
Pretty much every day in France is a holiday anyway. And if it isn’t they go on strike that day…
I think on Independence Day you Americans should wear bowler hats, drink tea and do the funny walks from Monty Python…
Also pretty much every day in the UK is ‘We used to own all of you, and things were much better then’ Day.
Hey Homos, Happy Thanksgiving!!!!
I thought McG had signed on for the new Terminator?
Hey Eib, happy thanksgiving. Maybe you could come over, and have some stuffing courtesy of nominus.
BTW, i miss americandrunkards. I was here, being nice on my holiday, working when i didn’t have to, providing comedy gold, and lo and behold Britons are rude no-nomination giving mutherfuckers. No offense ya fuckin brits.
Aw dammit. I forgot to italicize stuffing
where the fuck is part 1? nom, please point me towards part 1 of the movie!!!
In soviet russia stuffing italisizes you!
Are we talking about stuff again. I thought Thanksgiving meant shopping/smallpox for redskins [the race, not the team{there's a team called the redskins, right?}]) for you guys. What a shame the traditions have all gone away.
What now you guys go back to turkey and genocide?
No AGB, Women Be Shoppin’, not us "men".
I’m really glad I got that comment in before you Nom, or I would have looked a tad silly.
Wantabenext: Dude, I’m not going all searching around for it for you. Click on one of the clips on that profile, then look through the sidebar videos. Click on someone elses videos of the same movie, and find it yourself. I already have the movie myself. 3 or four days now. And it is fucking awesomeness time 5. I can’t stress that enough. Futurama is god to me now.
I’m gonna go watch west wing. Best show ever.
watanabex, check your messages in your inbox.
Thanks Nom, I love stuffing.
I thought Thanksgiving meant shopping/smallpox for redskins
I’m part redskin and I went shopping at Kmart. I coughed on all the blankets and towels and sneezed at a fat hausfrau who was taking up the whole damn aisle with her basketball-team-bearing hips. Hopefully I have smallpox and gave it to all those motherfuckers. Turnabout’s fair play.
I’m clearly having a tryptophan-induced hallucination here. This post doesn’t really exist.
Ok – I’m heading back to the couch. See ya.
tryptophan = too much turkey?
Where is affleck? I know he is working…
Morning…Well afternoon my time.
You arrive late to a party and every one fucks off. typical…
you know who I like? Scat man john.
BEE BEE BOP BOP O’DOH, BOP BOP and all that jazz.
I was forced to do some work due to the lack of activity. Thanks a lot, asshole!
Sorry Man, I had to and keep it on the down low today.
The man was getting all in my face.
fuck the man.
good mornin fellas!! wazzaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaap?!?!?!
Have I gone back in time 10 years??
Fortunately for me, I am the man. So that works out pretty sweet…
And it’s Friday and my liquid lunch is only 2 hours away :-)
correction, 1 hour away.
To be fair, it was a good job I was able to do some work otherwise there would be a lot of dissapointed worker drones with no pay chqs.
im an outsourcee for some gringos so i have to work while they out be shoppin’
And does this ‘work’ include posting here? I think not. Back to work!
I skipped school for no reason. Go me! Actually it’s because I have to read Mrs. Dalloway by Monday, create a poetry portfolio, and I have 2 exams next week, and 2 essays due soon. Shoot me!
Working is over rated. Well by me any way. If I didn’t need money I wouldn’t work.
Fuckers. it’s all the governments fault.
Can’t you get the cliff notes? Or download it on audio book. That way you can listen to it while you do the 2 essays and study!
affleck: therein lies the essential problem with Communism. If all the shit is given to me for free, why work for it?
I have to find parts that I can steal from as a writer, and parts that I don’t like and wouldn’t steal. So cliffsnotes won’t help.
bah, back to it…
… but then you realise that the shit they give you for free is utter rubish. And no matter how hard you work, you can’t get anything good. So you drink a bottle of vodka to make this situation easier to accept.
Yeah if it wasn’t for lazy people like my self communism would rule.
We’d all be living in a star trek universe in no time.
Don’t they not have any currency/money in the Star Trek universe? Filthy fucking Space Commies…
You mean we’d all be like Fek’lhr?
Scary thought, man.
Dor Sho Gah!
How was the turkey Jack!?
No money, apart from latinum.
everything else can just be replicated. man they think obesity is bad now, imagine we had replicaters we’d all be massive.
Imagine being ordered around by the commanding officer and not getting paid anything. I’d be like, "Yeah, what the fuck-ever dude. I’m going for lunch."
As we with most people I’d be like "fuck you boss man, I’m going to the holodeck to fuck some hottie"
*the holodeck is not to be confused with the holladeck, which is a platform black people stand on and make shout outs to there homies.
The turkey was delish! bryce.
Thanksgiving is one of only four days a year I actually eat well.
*their
damn fluxxy im nominating that holladeck post it cracked me up
come on give a guy his dues…
Already did, bex.
So you’re from the UK, aff?
Are you a chimney sweep?
I read an article saying that 15% of the English workforce is made up of chimney sweeps.
Another 10% shine shoes.
That "holladeck" shit should get COW. We had a holladeck at a house I used to rent a room at. We’d holla from that deck at the neighbors all the time, and at their black cat. We decided the cat’s name was Toby. For some reason they didn’t like it when we kept yelling, "TOBY! Look over here TOBY! We’re talking to you Toby! YOUR NAME IS TOBY!"
Turns out, the cat thought his name was "Katta Kinte".
I can’t believe how much I’ve been pooping!
jack, that should be the new metamucil slogan
jack, that should be the new metamucil slogan
damnit stupid opera double posted me
i guess im the only one holding down the fort, enjoy your shoppin
If everyone is going to use the holodeck for sexy shenanigans i pity the fool who’s job it is to be the jizz mopper. "Yeah, join Star Fleet, see the galaxy, meet interesting aliens and visit strange new worlds. Bullshit on that. Clean up Scotty’s spooge, more like." I suppose they could always have robots do it. Not those cute ones from Silent Running. I’d make C3P0 do it or that brat from AI.
I’m not shoppin’.
Women be shoppin’!
let’s not forget that you can also die in the hollodek, so you gots to be carefull with the autoerotic asfixiation
CB: Yeah, graduate from Starfleet academy and get assigned as Ensign Jizz Moper 3rd Class. It’s a long, sticky climb up the ranks to Captain…
New post, lame-o’s!
I am a woman and would not shop today if they gave it to me for free. Its not that I hate shopping, i just hate other people. and its not like i hate other people, i am just happier when they are not around.
I will ask my friends I met on lesbian dating site Femmate.com to visit your video! Great job.
Is femmate.com the new WealthyRomance.com?
Wait and see!
