Hilarious! Thanks Uncle Dave.
Isn’t that Steven Speilberg, doing the Shark?
And look how far they’ve struggled to become! Older and somewhat stupider.
I’d love to learn more about Seagram’s reaction!
A little long for any but the anti-corporate artistic elite, – – – like me.
Too long to really be used to great effect. When did Seagrams buy Universal?
But even my boys (ie-Southpark===sic!!) don’t respect their audience. The HAD TO let Stallone tell us he was in on the joke. The only discordant note. Almost but not quite saved by Stallone’s parting shot.
Yeah Sargasso, I’m pretty sure that was Spielberg.
I loved it! 😀
Thank you!
#5: Mid to late 90’s. Universal is now owned by GE.
LOL – Funny!
GE would arrange an accident for anyone who made this film about them.
As Cartman would say… “Sweet”.
#6. thanks for that. Steve rocks.
LOL,
why did they stop main movies as good as this clip?
That was too funny! Excellent!
No wonder Matt and Trey ended up at Cartoon Network (part of Turner) and not Universal.
This was really well done. The voice-over script especially has all the touches of those weirdly condescending 1950s-era films. Matt & Trey clearly studied them…
