(N.B.: Yeah, reality TV parodies are pretty old now — approaching “white guys rapping” status. But I thought this was an original take on it. And you know how the kids these days love their 1920s German art movement satire!!)

They say that through the internet, EVERYONE will enjoy 15 minutes of fame.
Not me.
I couldn’t make it past the first 10 minutes of that movie…

Aw, you ducked out before it got to the Dick in a Box part!
Bill’s fondness of the piece cannot be properly understood unless you watch all the way to the “Dick in einem Kasten” section.

I’d be pretty pissed too if Baron Samedi was hitting on my girl and ate my cereal.

I for one was pissed off when I tuned in to the Surreal Life only to find that Salvadore Dali wasn’t involved. Hey, I love washed-up celebrities as much as the next guy, but would it have killed them to melt Corey Feldman in a surrealistic fashion. (Note: this may have killed Feldman, but what is art without sacrifice?)

They could have at least issued Flavor Flav an oversized melted clock to hang around his neck.

Or a melted Brigitte Nelson for around his… nevermind.

Not enough shadows. Still not gloomy enough. I felt that their souls were insufficiently black and wretched.

True, it probably could have used a pinch more Verzweiflung, and a dash more Trostlosigkeit.
And an insane midget.

Well I hope the German government doesn’t censor their video like they did the orignal.
Damn Germans!

Ah, good old Babelfish. Translates your 2nd reply as:
“I forgot to add now the time on gear wheels, which we dance!”

I couldn’t let any fake German TV show go without a Sprockets reference.
“Now’s the time on Sprockets that we dance!”
every time I use bablefish to translate german it always comes saying something about invading Poland….Strange, really

Ugh that made my soul slump. I think I’m gonna go watch the Ballad of Bilbo Baggins to clense it.

HA! Oh man, this brings back such crappy memories of art school film-majors.
Be careful, when you make fun of them they get even moodier! And even MORE repressed!
