THIS! IS! ZEROPERCENTBODYFAT…IMEANSPARTA

Tonight we watched 300

(My wife and I, that is).

I learned of Leonidas

And the courage that was his

To lead a band of brothers

To their deaths love and freedom.

My wife also enjoyed the abs

And told me that I need ‘em.

But… The Metaphors?

“This movie is great, I promise”.

Those were the words I said.

Then I remembered that one scene

Where they shot the dude in the head

And the bit with the serial killer

And the… actually, never mind.

Maybe next time we’ll watch a movie

That you happen to find.

The Parabola Is Beginning Its Descent…

In 1999 the Matrix took the red pill.

In 2012, the Avengers were assembled.

In 2025 we’ll get the fifth Fantastic Four.

And now you understand just why I trembled.

Method Acting

As long as we’re recasting movies

Where male characters are now girls

I hope they can remake “Terminator”

As Hillary Clinton vs. the world.

“Best Picture”

If you make a very realistic movie

About a very unpleasant reality

You’ll make a very terrible piece of art

That will inevitably do well on IMDB.

It’s Not About Doing It Right… It’s About Adapting!

There once was a criminal crew

Who knew precisely what to do.

They went on a heist

And their planning sufficed

And the film got an awful review.

Based On My Real Evening

I watched a movie on TV

About an animated queen.

It had more lotion ads

Than I’ve ever seen.

Also, insurance,

Restaurants, and cars…

Apparently peasants

Need moist skin to be stars?

And so as the princess

And sidekicks sang ballads

I dreamt good healthcare

And never-ending salads.

Then plot twist! Men are evil

And love cures all pain.

I’m grateful for friendship

Brought to you by Gain!

Really Though… I Would Love To See More Movies Dubbed With Animal Noises

I wonder if animals watching TV

Think every show is just a human Lassie:

“Oh look! A talking human is saving the day.

“It makes its funny noises and everything is ok.”

Dwayne “Dwayne The Rock Johnson” Johnson

There once was a smoldering man

Who was muscular and quite tan.

He lost all his hair

But did not seem to care

And is basically new Jackie Chan.

Have You Seen The New “Winnie The Pooh” Movie By DC?

There once was a bear with a shirt

Whose heart filled with blackness and hurt.

He had no friends or money

So he ate all the honey

And the end of the world did avert.
