The most disappointing thing about this year of Fake Movie Fridays was the lack of submissions. We got some really great ones but I always heard from people that they wanted to do one but just haven’t written it out. These brave few made the leap. If I forgot anyone, I am so sorry. ALSO keep this going and send your Fake Movie Fridays to us!

Fake Movie Friday Week continues with a look back on the work of the debatably brilliant: John Tiglias. Many people who have read his work have called him crazy. Others haven’t read his work.

Hi Friends! As I’m sure you heard this Friday marks the 52nd Fake Movie Friday, thus completing one year. I’m going to take a day from each week to celebrate this year. First up is Peter! You know, me. Let’s take a look. This is your chance to read through some old ones and pretend you were there the whole time.

So I was wrong, this is only #51 so next week marks one year of Fake Movie Fridays. This title comes from Brian Fitzpatrick, a simple man if not bland gentleman. Well at least I think this is what he said. Wow, this turned out long.
Cauliflower Revisited
Movie opens on a child on a bus staring over a seat. His mother pulls him down and tells him to stop staring. He sits back as the camera pans over the seat and past a cauliflower eared man. The woman apologizes for her son and says, “Wait aren’t you William? Tom and Cindy’s kid? I was real sorry to hear.” William simply nods and turns toward the window.

I’m going to be honest here, I can’t exactly remember the name of the fake movie title I received as a suggestion at the show last night. I think this is it, but I’m not totally sure. I’m pretty sure Kentucky was in the title. And Wedding. Thanks to improv troupe Florence for the suggestion and sorry that I got drunk and forgot it. This a 52nd consecutive FMF for both Pete and myself… 1 year strong … Congrats Pete. Here’s to 52 weeks of terrible ideas, worse movies, great titles and no proof reading!
Kentucky Time Wedding
1980′s. Jacob owns a watch shop in Horse Cave, Kentucky. It’s been in his family for generations, owned by his father before him, his fathers father before that and his fathers fathers father before that. Kentucky Time is the name of the shop. Jacob had to take over working at the shop after his father passed and supports his mother. He spends almost all of his time at the shop and hasn’t had a girlfriend in years, since his fiance, Emily, died in a horrible auto accident that also took his fathers life.
I mostly know of Ricky Jay from his work with Mamet so I am very interested to learn more about his magic career. This trailer reminded me of another film that’s been on my radar for a while, the documentary about one of my all time heroes James Randi. This trailer is about a year old and it looks like the documentary is completed but it is pretty expensive. Hopefully it will hit Netflix soon.
Most people have brought up how similar this feels to Men In Black with good reason. Some of the jokes were pretty broad, but for the most part RIPD looks pretty fun. Someone in the comments pointed out that this should have really came out in October and not in July which I completely agree with. With Pacific Rim coming out the week before and Wolverine the week after, this has a good chance of tanking.

I don’t know about this movie. With the exception of William Fichtner and Tom Wilkinson I didn’t find much to get excited about. I looks like the perfect movie to watch on HBO on a lazy Sunday afternoon, which is probably not what they were going for.

I saw the 10 minute IMAX preview in front of The Hobbit and it was great. But recently I’ve been losing my excitement. I maybe because I’ve watched so much Star Trek recently (I watched all The Next Generation series and movies and am in the process of watching the Original Series). Maybe it is because the trailer makes it seem too dark and serious. Or maybe it is just my irrational dislike for Damon Lindelof. Here is hoping I’m wrong and the movie is as great as the first one.
