'Fame' Trailer Goes for the 'Harry Potter' Crowd

DateTuesday, July 14, 2009 at 4:29AM
In race car driving, they call this sort of thing drafting, where one car follows behind another one in the gap created in the air by the front car. That way, the second car doesn't face as much resistance and is able to go farther or faster without using as much fuel. In essence, you're using another car's hard work for you gain.

The movie version of it looks like this: For longer than it should, this video looks like it's another ad for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, but as it happens, it's promoting another school and not Hogwarts. Yep, it's a promo for Fame.

The remake of the movie and later the TV series will be in theaters on September 25th, and features a pretty good cast for a retread. Kelsey Grammer, Bebe Neuwirth, Megan Mullally, Debbie Allen (naturally), Charles S. Dutton, and Naturi Naughton, who played Lil Kim in Notorious this year, lead the cast.

So watch the swerve Fame throws down on an unsuspecting Harry Potter trailer:

With this cast, it feels more like a television movie.

LG is currently holding a Fame-themed contest. If you upload a video of yourself performing the Fame theme song (which you can download from the site) in any way (singing, dancing, playing an instrument, etc.) you can win $50,000. If you're not a performer you can vote on the videos (up to 3 times each day) and be eligible to win daily prizes (LG phones and a home theater system). Also, for each vote, LG will make a donation to VH1's Save the Music. Check it out, if it's something you're interested in: <url>http://bit.ly/3wXJuy</url>
