'Midgets vs. Mascots' Trailer As Bad As You'd Think

DateWednesday, April 1, 2009 at 6:16PM
I don't know if the Tribeca Film Festival has a slogan, but I'd like to recommend "Dignity First." You see, as part of the event, the mockumentary Midgets vs. Mascots will premiere, ushering in a new standard for filmmakers everywhere.

Don't take my word for it; here are some actual comments from actual YouTube users: "GARY COLEMAN!?!?! awesome stuff, can't wait to see it."..."saw the test screening...it is borat meets jackass, maybe better!"..."NOTHIN' FUNNIER THAN MIDGETS!"..."A taco riding a mechanical bull? -- EXCELLENT!"

It is all of those things and more. Yes, Gary Coleman plays himself...but so does Ron Jeremy. Of course, who else would Ron Jeremy play at this point, aside from Orlando Magic coach Stan Van Gundy?

Now that would be a movie. This one...I'm not so sure. Take a look at the unrated trailer:

You can check out the world premiere of Midgets vs. Mascots on Saturday, April 25th. It's a real win for sharp independent filmmakers everywhere.

The YouTube comments that the producers pride themselves on.... go to youtube and check who left those comments... new subscribers who joined in March 2009 and never viewed anything else on the entire YouTube website.

What are the odds?

No seriously, they couldn't cut a trailer or be smart enough to cover their tracks. I'm sure the movie will be great.
