Video: Spring Breakers, with Disney Princesses (Morning Links)

Written by Zeke Greenwald / 03.25.13

I keep referring to Vanessa Hudgens and Selena Gomez in Spring Breakers as “Disney princesses,’ but what this video presupposes is, what Spring Breakers starred actual Disney princesses? “Darling it’s better down where it’s wetter” FTW. |CollegeHumor|

Bad Lip Reading: The Amazing Spider-Man

Written by Vince Mancini / 03.06.13

The Amazing Spider-Man was basically the same movie as Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man, only much worse, yet some people still liked it because of the new cast. That seems weird to me, but Bad Lip Reading is here to bring us all together once again, with a take on Spider-Man that’s basically the best of both worlds – taking that new cast everyone loves and having them say words that are funny and interesting. (“You freestyled about my wooden leg?”) Is it too late to get these guys to direct the sequel?

Jesus, look at that neck. No wonder the kid always wears a scarf.

Lincoln Parody: Lincoln + Scarface = Beardface

Written by Vince Mancini / 11.07.12

Don’t take this as invitation to send me every dumb mash-up you see (let’s face it, at least 95% of them are terrible), but I thought this Lincoln parody was pretty good. The Spielberg version opens this weekend, and it paints the Civil War era as a shouty place full of overbearing John Williams music where people often pounded tables and dramatically pointed fingers at each other in casual conversation. What BEARDFACE video presupposes is that our 16th president was actually more of an Oliver Stone creation, who snorted lots of coke and shouted into cell phones. I especially enjoyed its depiction of Confederacy President Jefferson Davis:

Genius Parody: Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close for 9/11 conspiracy theorists

Written by Vince Mancini / 01.17.12

There are far too many supercuts, parodies, and fan-made trailers going around for me to post even a fraction of them (and for the most part, you should thank me), but I consider this parody of Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close close to a must-watch. The insanely maudlin-looking movie adaptation of Jonathan Safran Foer’s novel (which has already been accused by some of post-9/11 opportunism) probably ranks just behind War Horse and The Iron Lady in terms of unintentional parody films. (And really, aren’t we tired of these kinds of movies yet?)

Point is, it’s an easy (and deserving) target, but the folks at theDickheads went a clever way with it, re-imagining Tom Hanks’s beloved 9/11 casualty character as a really obnoxious 9/11 conspiracy theorist. Brilliant concept, and spot-on execution. “A plane crashes in an EMPTY FIELD and leaves no trace. ARE WE AT F*CKING HOGWARTS?!”

I love this.
