if you like comedic mockmentaries I highly recommend 1670 which is about a Polish noble family that still loosely follows 'family comedy' tropes
some of my favorite things:
-racist (xenophobic) uncle no one likes
-evil second son
-lesbian sex
-anti-nobility peasant who is just a small nudge away from doing his one-man revolution and murdering the entire noble family
-^^^he gets to kill someone
-sexism jokes that are actually funny because it plays on the absurdity of ignorance("You may not know this because girls don't poop-")
also i suggest listening to the original polish audio because there are some linguistic things like the father giving his kids affectionate names that aren't captured in the english dub or subtitles

i just wanted to come on here and cause some chaos for me, myself, and i--because iā€™m most likely the only one who cares; the mockumentary fic was actually a toss up between two ideas. idea one is what iā€™ve shown and have been writing with the ministry background. idea two, however, was centered around the triwizard tournament and tom would be a champion from durmstrang or something and drama happens (stupid drama that i still think would be extremely funny) and harry ends up as the hogwarts champion. at some point itā€™s very well known that harry and tom have instant hatred for each other, but everyone is confident itā€™s because they are just stupidly attracted to each other and donā€™t realise it. the mockmentary simply becomes aĀ ā€˜how long until harry and tom figure out they have the hots for each other and need to bang like rabbits before the sexual tension kills everyone in hogwarts including the international delegatesā€™

@purrassicjet and i were talking about celebrities that we think should run for us president and we landed on emily deschanel but she would need david boreanaz to be vice president (obviously) or it wouldnā€™t work as well and then we ended up with a bones presidential au??
here is everyoneā€™s roles, please keep in mind now the rod is are american and all our information on how the presidency works came from hamilton.
brennan as president obviously because she would be great. only question we had was would she be ā€œdr presidentā€ like how people say ā€œmr presidentā€ because she had three doctorates and that will not be ignored
angela as vice president because america needs her. she is amazing.
booth as first lady because i donā€™t know the male version of it?? he would be very supportive of her most of the time and overall a great first lady
hodgins as treasurer of state (??i think itā€™s a thing??). he is not allowed to make any political comments ever because no one knows what he will say next and he has often been caught attempting to break into the white house even though he has a key to get in
cam as campaign manager because they need someone behind the scenes who knows what theyā€™re doing. she is the reason everything doesnā€™t fall apart
sweets as secretary of state. not really sure why but ya know
aubrey is head of defence. he will keep them safe
zack is brennans assistant. iā€™m sorry man but thatā€™s your ideal job. he is very good at his job
all other squinterns as members of cabinet/congress (??)
itā€™s not an american political party without an old straight white guy so that role goes to max. does america think his criminal history is controversial? yes. does the president give a fuck? no! he said he pinky promised to be good and you donā€™t break a pinky promise
caroline as supreme court justice obviously
karen from season 11/12 as the leader of the secret service
gordon gordon as presidential advisor because heā€™s a smart guy ya know he knows what heā€™s doing
all the other recurring fbi agents (flynn, perotta, etc) are secret service agents
sully is seventh in command. he kinda does everything else. he drives the car. he looks after the horses. cleans the pool. gardens. ya know. everyone loves him.
hate hanson i know you love an au so hears a sick idea for a 20 year anniversary reboot show. btw it must be a mockmentary like 11x18. also must feature another different remix of the opening theme.

Like the worst example is Netflixā€™s Cleopatha mockmentary. Yes Iā€™m calling it that as I refuse to treat it as a legitimate documentary. Itā€™s a classic case of American arrogance thinking they know a countryā€™s history better then the actual people in it. Like there was actually black pharaohs in history but Cleopathra, who is pretty much confirmed to be Greek is not one of them. Heck itā€™s even more offensive because not everyone who lives in Africa is black. Iā€™m just glad Netflix got sued over it
That is pretty much the stereotype people think of Africans. Cleopatra wasn't black, yet we made her black. Like, do they forget that southern Europeans and Arabs exist?

WAIT!! your daisy jones & the six reblog!! I have that on my tbr šŸ˜« I started a few months ago but school got busy so I never got very far and now Iā€™m working on finishing another book first (love & other words). also yesterday I bought one true loves by taylor jenkins reid because I heard it was good, hopefully I can get around to it but Iā€™m a slow reader šŸ’” I also started annotating books and wow it feels so nice!!
- yes to heaven anon šŸ¤
PLEASE READ DAISY JONES!!! It's such a fantastic book and if you like interview mockmentary type things then it's the book for you.
I'm gonna post my favorite quotes:
"I think you have to have faith in people before they earn it. Otherwise it's not faith, right?"
"I wish someone had told me that love isn't torture. Because I thought love was this thing that was supposed to tear you in two and leave you heartbroken and make your heart race in the worst way. I thought love was bombs and tears and blood. I did not know that it was supposed to make you lighter, not heavier. I didn't know it was supposed to take only the kind of work that makes you softer. I thought love was war. I didn't know it was supposed to be peace."
"I think people that are too similar... they don't mix well. I used to think soul mates were two of the same. I used think I was supposed to look for somebody that was just like me. I don't believe in soul mates anymore and I'm not looking for anything. But if I did believe in them, I'd believe your soul mate was somebody who had all the things you didn't, that needed all the things you had. Not somebody who's suffering from the same stuff you are."
"And baby when you think of me, I hope it ruins rock and roll."
"I am not a muse.
I am the somebody.
End of fucking story."

I film da vedere a febbraio al cinema
Tumblr media
I film da vedere a febbraio al cinema. Tra i diversi titoli in uscita a febbraio, nelle sale italiane, spuntano tre film candidati agli Oscar; TĆ r, Gli spiriti dellā€™isola e The Whale. Insieme ai film che procedono con la corsa per Los Angeles, vi sono altrettanti titoli meritevoli di lode, come The Son, Marcel the Shell e Decision to Leave. TĆ r di Todd Fieldal, al cinema dal 9 febbraio. La trama gira intorno alla carriera di Lydia TĆ r (Cate Blanchett), prima direttrice donna della Filarmonica di Berlino, una delle piĆ¹ grandi compositrici viventi. Ā  The Whale di Darren Aronofkyal, al cinema dal 23 febbraio. Dopo la presentazione a Venezia ā€™79 e la standing ovation del pubblico in sala per lā€™interpretazione di Brendan Fraser, il film di Aronofkyal ĆØ giĆ  altamente quotato per la vittoria agli Oscar. ƈ la storia commovente di un insegnante inglese obeso, pronta a far piangere e ad entrare nel cuore. Un uomo che dovrĆ  fare i conti con i propri fantasmi, radicati in un amore mai rivelato, e un rapporto irrisolto con la figlia adolescente. Ā  Gli spiriti dellā€™isola, dal 2 febbraio al cinema. Un film che intasca una doppietta veneziana, con la Coppa Volpi a Colin Farrell e il Premio per la miglior sceneggiatura; due amici di vecchia data si trovano in una situazione di stallo quando uno di loro, mette inspiegabilmente fine al loro rapporto. Ā  The Son di Florian Zelleral, nelle sale dal 9 febbraio. Zelleral ritorna con un lungometraggio struggente, tratto da una piĆØce teatrale. Dopo il divorzio dei genitori, il diciassettenne Nicholas non puĆ² piĆ¹ vivere con la madre. Il male di vivere che lo tormenta, ĆØ diventato costante e il suo unico rifugio sono i ricordi del passato. Nel cast Hugh Jackman e la comparsa di Anthony Hopkins. Marcel the Shell di Dean Fleischer Campal, al cinema dal 9 febbraio. Marcel ĆØ una conchiglia piccola, di due centimetri, con un grande occhio al centro e un paio di scarpe da ginnastica; un vero e proprio mockmentary in stop motion, candidato agli Oscar come miglior film dā€™animazione. Ā  E per finire Decision to Leave di Park Chan-Wook, al cinema dal 2 febbraio. Terminata la trilogia della vendetta, il regista torna con un thriller sentimentale che gira intorno alla morte di un uomo precipitato da una montagna, per cause misteriose. Un noir che si ĆØ aggiudicato il premio come miglior regia al Festival di Cannes.... #notizie #news #breakingnews #cronaca #politica #eventi #sport #moda Read the full article

American, sorry, what else has hugh grant done?
No need to apologise! I forget that he's not as much a household name as over here, I think the things he's best known for are Love Actually, Four Weddings and a Funeral, & About a Boy and a couple others. He's also great in The Gentlemen lol. Very funny man

what do tho think is going to happen with the character of channing for season 3? the actor keeps liking rina scenes ever since his role was announced. it seems like his plot is basically there to bring drama and he isnā€™t in all the episodes according to imdb.
Right so for this season thereā€™s going to be a "docu-series" along with the typical hsmtmts mockmentary and what I understood from that itā€™s that there will be like a behind the scenes documentary of the making of Frozen at camp because itā€™s apparently a big deal. I imagine Corbin and his crew will film the group in all of their preparations for the role + camp activities.
The character of Channing was described as a camera operator. Thatā€™s it. Basically his job is to hold the camera and film everyone. I donā€™t see why inserting a whole new character if this isnā€™t going to be important for the plot. My guess is that the crew is going to find drama to add to the documentary ā€“ which of course will focus on the triangle (Ricky, Gina, EJ) and Channing will probably film something he shouldnā€™t have which will create drama. I find this addition interesting and definitely fun because itā€™s something they havenā€™t done before. This season seems to be pushing for more drama and just overall seems bigger and I like that.

Actually what would be really cool would be if Penelope immediately became a cyberterrorist vigilante again upon being released from her contract with the FBI, and the reason the gang had to reconvene is to profile HER and put her back in her confines. Hotch has to come out from his peaceful west coast seaside retirement because his weird daughter is acting up again. Fantastic black-comedy style mockmentary. Profiling Penelope, now streaming on HBO on-demand

help iā€™m watching Butterfly Kisses which is a mockmentary and anyway they got Eduardo Sanchez (director of The Blair Witch Project) to play himself as part of this mockmentary and in the movie he's like "yeah i think this found footage is totally fake and it's fucked up that he thinks the only way to market this movie is to pretend it's real" but if you know ANYTHING about how Blair Witch was marketed it was completely made to look real. the actors in it had missing persons posters, the website for the movie had police reports, the IMDb pages for the actors were listed as missing and presumed dead. they did such a good job at their marketing that tons of people thought it was real found footage and basically a snuff film, so it is hilarious that they had him be the one to be likeĀ ā€œyeah itā€™s really disturbing that this guys feels like he needs to pretend itā€™s real to market itā€

Pop Art Painter Jamie #Roxx (www.JamieRoxx.us) welcomes #JimmySlonina and Natalie Sullivan (Marathon; Film | Comedy) to the Show!
ā— IMDB: www.imdb.com/title/tt13391648
From writer-directors #KeithStrausbaugh and #AnthonyGuidubaldi, Marathon is ā€œa cheeky, giggle-filled #mockmentaryā€ (The Film Yap) that tracks an assemblage of improbable partakers of a long-distance race ā€œChristopher Guest-styleā€ (Projected Figures).
An unprofessional documentary film crew follows five amateur runners as they train for Devil's Canyon Marathon, an offbeat desert race organized by Ed Clap, a desperate shoe store owner pulling out all the stops to celebrate its fifteenth year.
Said the filmmakers of the cast, ā€œEvery mock-doc lives and dies by its cast, so the spotlight should be on them, not us. Thankfully, we had a company of Las Vegas comedic stars from Cirque du Soleil, Absinthe, Second City, and Blue Man Group... mixed with a few up-and-coming and hilarious Upright Citizens Brigade actors from LA. Thatā€™s our statementā€.
Adds the P.A, ā€œLook, man, I was just getting $150/day. I canā€™t really comment on the overall vision.ā€
Marathon is on digital and On Demand July 6 from Gravitas Ventures.
