Blogger on a Mission
Alright kids, be even MORE excited than I previously encouraged because Alamo Drafthouse is having a contest to see who can come up with the best Snakes on a Plane tribute short!
The rules are as follows:
Film Content:
There are no restrictions to the content of the film except for these 3 basic rules:1) All films must be between 2 and 5 minutes long.
2) All films must be some sort of disaster film wherein your randomly chosen animal ends up on your randomly chosen vehicle.
3) All films must contain the line of dialogue “(your randomly chosen animal) on a mother f**king (your randomly chosen vehicle).”
4) The films can contain violence or nudity but in keeping with Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission regulations, we cannot allow anything that would be deemed pornography. You may not harm real animals or unwilling people in the making of your video.
I and my frequent compatriot The Evanator have pretty much decided we’re going to enter it but the main thing we’re worried about is that we’ll pay the $40 entry fee and end up with something like “seahorses on a unicycle”. That and we don’t really have a movie camera, per se…. but I think we’re going to do it anyway. Between Evan’s knack for witty dialogue and my innate ability to tell people what to do, we ought to be able to come up with a pretty decent film.
Be prepared for the blinding light of awesomeness.
