Title: Real Men of Genius?
Post by: Caleb on July 15, 2006, 07:13 PM NHFT
So ... today, we were talking about making some spoof fsp videos based on the beer commercials "real men of genius".  We could parody little commercials, based on the types of people who are affiliated with the fsp.

So far ... we've got:

1)  Mr. gun cleaner
2)  Mr. obsessed with privacy
3)  Mr. moved 3000 miles just to run for a boring local office
4)  Mr. planning New Hampshire's independence from South Dakota
5)  Mr. IT guy

Any more ideas?

only objection i have about this is that glenn beck ("conservative" talk show/tv host) already spoofs those commercials quite often.

I love the spots. I don't have any ideas for spoofs.

Sorry, Mister "Dresses Like An Indian With A Cigar And Carries A Pitchfork, Running For Congress But Really Not".

You can't imagine how pumped I am. This is the ONLY comic that I read for a good year or too before I started getting back into comics.

This universe breaks off from before they screw up Spiderman's continuity in '98. And picks about 15 years latter when Mayday starts developing Spider Powers.

They cancled the series, and I was bummed. But they're relaunching it now in Oct as Amazing Spider Girl instead of just Spider Girl.

We salute you, Mr. Protest Documentary Producer...
;D ;D ;D

Come on somebody can make a parody on me. I think when we can laugh at ourselves it will bring us together. I have a dream where the anarchist and the political wonk can live as brothers. And if they can't, well as Robin Williams said "Jokem if they can't take a fuck."  ;D

I'd be interested and have some fun with this sort of content.

Man, I am still laughing at Hollywood Rob's rendition of this. As we stood in the river and downed a cold one. T'was the highlight of my first adventure to Freedom Park.

          Mister Massachusetts Liberal!

    You?ve brought us great projects like the Big Dig but it doesn?t bother you that it?s caving it since it was federal money.

          Free federal money!

    And when asked about Mass losing its population you actually believe it is because taxes are too low.

         Tax and spend!

   You continue to think up new programs and new laws so the government can expand and expand.

         *Chorus* Ask not what you can do for your country but your country can do for you!

    So crack open a cold one, Mr. Massachusetts Liberal, because only you understand the true meaning of the term welfare in the constitution.

Ya know, it may not be a bad idea to do a short film to promote FSP. I don't mean a documentary. I mean a little entertaining narrative, kinda funny, but also endearing. We could get it hosted on iFilms, YouTube, ebaumsworld. If we did it fast enough, perhaps we could get it into the Liberty Film Festival in West Hollywood.
