Superawful Movie?
It’s good to see you guys again. It’s been a hectic month as I’ve mentioned before, but don’t think I haven’t been writing. I’ve been collecting posts like postage stamps or rare coins, just waiting to show them off. So are you ready to see what I’ve reviewed and learned this month? Well hang on, because it’s all coming to you at once.
Superhero Movie opened this past weekend so I thought I’d take a moment to reflect. The fact of the matter is the parody is dying. The greatest spoof of all time, I think was the original Airplane with Leslie Neilson, but even he didn’t seem to breathe life in the genre film of today. Now I haven’t seem Superhero Movie yet, I’ll wait for the cheaper DVD rental, but I don’t think it would be a very wise investment of my time or money. I’m sure there’s a few standard guffaw moments, but probably wouldn’t have me laughing so hard I cry. There’s nothing in recent memory I’ve seen that has accomplished that. I chuckled throughout Talledegha Nights, but recalling scenes and laughing at them again, that hasn’t happened in a very long time. Now at pop culture buzz there is a trailer posted at http://www.popculturebuzz.com/the-super-hero-movie-trailer-is-silly-fun/ so if you want to at least take a look at the trailer there it is. As far as silly fun, I don’t know, I think it’s probably going to be a superawful movie. If you have time to kill and money to waste you might want to check it out, but I can almost guarantee it falls into the same tired Scary Movie, Not Another Teen Movie, Epic Movie, Superman Returns, Superhero Movie, category. With a lackluster plot and few shining moments. The parody is dead. Let it rest in piece. I thought I’d throw Superman Returns in there to see if you were paying attention. It was, admittedly, just as awful though.

I cried after Superman Returns. It was such a sad waste of my money. Poor little $8.
