Yeah that was cool to hear. The original film is better than the Burton remake as well.

That was hilarious. Only Michael Bolton can make a song about a pedophile shopkeeper, an unsafe and unhygienic factory and forced slavery sound epic. lol

I laugh and love that they remind the audience that Loompas were originally black, something i remember from a book about the life of the author including interesting facts like he written a James Bond movie, divorced his sick wife to marry his mistress, hosted a TV show and protested a movie adaptation on another of his books because the movie changed the plot point about how all witches are evil to not all witches are evil and some are good.

Roald Dahl was rather eccentric (among other things).

The Oompa Loompa song was fantastic. "Their legs are weird because he broke their knees!"

So that was the movie that was most voted by fans?

I laughed about the unintentionally bad aesops the film was promoting and it trick viewers into thinking Chef Guy Fieri was the lead singer of Smash Mouth.

Also, here's this week's Game Trailer.

Everything they said about All Star is true, goddamn.

So viewers asked Screen Junkies why didn't they get Smash Mouth to perform in the Honest Trailer for Shrek and this was their response:

"Trust me... Us more! We truly tried.. We talked to their reps who tried for us too - but the band just didn't wanna do it. Thanks to Epic Lloyd for stepping in instead @andysignore"

I think the band didn't want appear because they got sick and tired of fans thinking they are a one-hit wonder band that got famous due to their song "All Star" appearing in Shrek when in truth "All Star" first appear in the Mystery Men and the band had other hit songs as well.

To give you an idea how much they don't like this misconception, anytime a twitter user says things like "Hey, remember that song from Shrek? or "Smash Mouth, that one hit wonder band who sang in Shrek", the official Smash Mouth Twitter will reply and say "Thanks but just so you know, we are not a one hit wonder band as we had four top ten songs in the charts previously.".

Yes, he's fifty.

It's actually kind of scary because between watching this and Man of Tai Chi, I've heard that he does most of his own stunts.

Keanu Reeves ages so gracefully it shocks me. It also makes me glad he can still put out quality content, as I learned from watching Man of Taichi.

Do we talk about The Roast of [Whoever] here? Cuz The Roast of Batman on Screen Junkies plus was phenomenol.

[up][up] I've found the roasts painful to watch. Watching fictitious characters portrayed by (Sometimes bad) actors in bargain bin basement costumes roast one another is frankly... pretty weird and borderline uncomfortable. Sort of also misses the point of roasting someone.

So the aesop is if you wanna win an Oscar, make a movie that praises Hollywood or go Method acting. wink

Kinda surprised there was no parody of "Shiny". I mean, there's plenty of fuel for poking fun at the song: David Bowie parody, complete shift in tone and nothing to do with Polynesian cultures, basically being a makeup attempt for the lack of Villain Songs in the past four Disney films...
