1. Maybe they can enter "Stolz Der Nation."
I'm sure Tarantino would give his permission.

7. "It's their wedding day. The bride, in traditional black, holding her
traditional AK-47,walks down the aisle, smiling into the eyes of her bridegroom, sartorially resplendent in traditional camo fatigues. The little 6-year old ring-bearer, balancing the ring on the bayonet, precedes her. The basement lights dim. The Horst Wessel song begins." Oh wait, didn't we just see that one?

2. The Long Walk
The year is 2023. Liberal political correctness has banned all conservativism and Christianity. One small hold out community in the alabama backcountry continues to hold to traditional American values, but the government moves in leaving only two survivors - Virginia O'Grady and Rush Nabors. The two have to make their way across benighted America, bearing only that most sacred of documents, the United States Constitution, banned by evil liberals.

That does sound a lot like the plot to Book of Eli now that i think of it.

3. I'm sure they will give librul Hollywood a run for its money
There must be literally lots of teabaggers able to match or exceed the high standards of cinematic art set by such modern-day classics as An American Carol and Expelled.

(Do I really need a sarcasm tag?)

5. Typical Republican Values and
a shotgun wedding between two 6-7 year olds

Or...how about this a guideline on how to kill people in authority and blow up stuff..
.all sound like typical republican values to me.

Maybe we could have one with the title "The Witch -Witch Project...(Life and times of Sarah Palin)

11. Anti-anti-Christ
A couple accidentally shoots their toddler while engaging in hot, steamy target practice at a militia camp deep in the forest. "She" is wracked with guilt for feeling grief over the loss of the child when in fact she should be damn proud of the clean shot that bagged the kid--right through the heart. "He" takes it upon himself to take her out of the church-militia movement and personally exorcise the grief demon from her soul. Along the way, an animatronic warthog tells him "Social justice reigns."

12. I wonder if they'll give an award to D. W. Griffith posthumously.
These jokers would probably watch "The Birth of a Nation" and get nostalgic.

How long will their special tribute to the films of Leni Reifenstahl be? "Triumph of the Will" could be a Tea Party sensation overnight!

14. I would love to see something Colbertesque.
Something totally over the top, flags and screaming eagles, that to the uninitiated "moran" looks like patriotism on steroids, but actually makes them look like the fools that they are.

Any clever film-makers out there?



:evilgrin:

15. I have a feeling if you went there you'd see exactly that.
Without a hint of irony. :evilfrown:
