#004: Two Of The Six Writers Of Scary Movie

I am referring to Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer, who market themselves as the title above in a bizarre attempt to win audiences over to their recent intelligence abortions, Date Movie and Epic Movie. First of all, being one of the people who wrote Scary Movie isn't much of an accomplishment. In fact, having seen Scary Movie, it's somewhat depressing to think that it took six human brains to simply make fun of the horror genre in a way that was both non-hilarious and anti-entertaining. However, this self-appointed title of theirs apparently has Hollywood chomping at the bit as they have been allowed to write and direct two of the worst comedies ever concocted. I'm hoping that their next movie will be Parody Movie, a flick all about shit films that make fun of much better, more original films. I'm sure it'll be hilarious, especially when the movie starts to parody itself and ends up imploding in a puff of sarcasm. Let's hope that, for the sake of cinema, it takes its writers with it. Otherwise I fear I will soon carry the title of 'One Of The Many Contributors To The Two Of The Six Writers Of Scary Movie's Bloody, Bloody Demise'.
