LoadingReadyRun: Imagine If You Will

[manythings]

Cracked.com beat them to this a long ass time ago. Funny, but their literary examples of "Twilighting" up the lore of other stuff (Werewlves, Frankenstein, etc.) we just comedy gold.

 

[King Toasty]

Twilight would be much improved if Bella's brain melted every time she looked at him.

Not that you'd tell the difference, but still.

 

[Daaaah Whoosh]

I don't know, Cthulu wouldn't be too bad, tweens already go insane when they see a vampire...

 

[Le_Lisra]

Dear god there's a The Dutch 2?

The Dutch 1 was terrifying enough.

Also one hell of a stinger as usual.

Ninja'd. I'm scared already.

 

[tehweave]

Love it. This is EXACTLY how pitch meetings go down. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck Hollywood.

 

[GuiltBlade]

Aww, I was expecting the stinger to be that Graham was so hungry that he ate the man.
Thus revealing the dark, brooding Graham's secret, that he is in fact a Wendigo.

Great episode, that pitch sounded like a short lived anime comedy.

 

[Traipse]

Any guesses as to how long it's going to take for a trailer of the burrito-love movie to make it onto Youtube?

 

[Mydnyght]

No! No more Cthulhu! He's WAAAAY overused..... thanks to Yahtzee Croshaw. [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/969-Scribblenauts]

As for the movie about a boy who's really a burrito... MAKE IT. RIGHT NAO.

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

No it cut to black! I WANTED TO SEE GRAHAM VS PAUL!

 

[BehattedWanderer]

I'll admit, it had me laughing. Though, one contention--Chipotle is more Tex-Mex than Mexican. But still--Canada gets the delicious Tex-Mex Burritos before El Paso does? Dammit, desert city, you're in Texas with a Mexican culture! You should have pioneered that deliciousness!

And now I want to travel the three hours to the nearest Chipotle. Dang.

OT: I've got one - Ok- so a girl moves to a new school. She's scared and vulnerable. She meets a young, handsome boy and falls in love with him. But it turns out... He's a regular human being!

I'll up you one: The same scenario, but a dramatic Twist! He's not into her at all! Le gasp! And by the resolution, he's still not into her, finding her to be clingy and annoying, and he instead dates her arch-nemesis (because clearly all girls have an arch-nemesis in highschool), because she's carefree, aloof, and doesn't get hung up in shallow crap. The girl goes on to college, having only a few friends, and ends up knocking boots with some random guys in her dorm in an attempt to move past the guy. Spoiler, she eventually settles with her average friend, figuring that each other would be the best they'll ever get.

 

[Something Amyss]

I still think the burrito idea would work better than Cthulu. Great call. Now instead of young girls being obsessed with fake vampires and being subjected to odd marital relationship metaphors, they'll just be giving more business to Taco Bell. They'll need all the help they can get in the Food Wars, you know.

Bella...Stay away...Don't Cross The border....

*DONG*

(Having never read a Twilight book or seen one of the movies, I have no idea how the Vampire acts or talks beyond sparkling and moping. In this sense, my burrito joke has as much to do with Twilight as Twilight has to do with Vampires).

 

[castlewise]

Oh man, this video is so full of win. Its been a good month for LRR videos

 

[Tireseas_v1legacy]

Ladies and Gentlemen: never approve movies on an empty stomach...

 

[Alahmnat]

Dear god there's a The Dutch 2?

The Dutch 1 was terrifying enough.

Also one hell of a stinger as usual.

The trailer for The Dutch 2 is just 3 minutes of Adam shouting "The Dutch, again! [http://loadingreadyrun.com/videos/view/296/The-Dutch/QT]" (sorry for the QuickTime link, the Flash version from Revver doesn't seem to want to load).

Ah, hilarious secret background throwbacks...

Excellent. Get two token gay characters in there, who eventually get together themselves, and we'll be rich!

 

[BrotherRool]

I think the Cthulu one has legs

Havn't you just sumerised any old generic american rom-com? Well, the high-school setting being subjective?

I'll one-up both of you. Same scenario, but he's asexual and when they're older, she's still trying to woo him and he puts a restraining order on her. And there's two token gay characters who are just friends and nothing more.

To round out and freely abuse the spectrum of political nonsense, one of them should be a popular minority, and the other should be a minority among minorities, like Dutch-Hawaiian, with daddy issues. I see this working.

 

[Keava]

Then..maybe if not Cthulhu the boy could be Shoggoth! Or maybe Hastur, imagine, each time he was called to the board in class the teacher would die in a gruesome, violent way. There is a lot of potential in Lovecraftian mythos, clearly not used enough in modern, mass media *nod*

A devout pastafarian Dutch-Hawaiian with some form of sympathy-inducing disability, and daddy issues. Now we have potential for a spin-off, too!
