There's an interesting take on this trailer, at http://www.turnhere.com/turnherepro/2006/05/best-movies-youll-never-see-remixed.html Here's an excerpt: > Ari Eisner and Mike Dow elevate trailer parody remixes to an art form. The two take old classics like "The Ten Commandments" and "Jaws" and reconceptualize them through the eyes of brain dead Hollywood studio executives. > In other words, this trailer isn't making fun of The Ten Commandments as much as it's pointing out how Hollywood can reduce any complex story to a sound-bite formula it can recognize. For me it was an insight, anyway. Thanks for the shout-out. There’s an interesting take on this trailer, at http://www.turnhere.com/turnhe.....mixed.html
