Maria: Nazi Smasher

So the wife made me watch that Carrie Underwood The Sound of Music. I even suggested another movie with a well known star of musicals, Hugh Jackman, but I still had to watch The Sound of Music instead of The Wolverine. It’s funny, though, until we started watching, I completely forgot I was in The Sound of Music in 8th grade. I was Max, which was the second biggest male speaking part, but he doesn’t come in until the 2nd act which means I didn’t pay attention to the first act and never understood the plot.

Anyway, that movie needs a lot of updating. Not only is none of the music dubstep, but the plot is just lame and boring. First change, rename if from the yawn inducing “The Sound of Music” to the much more exciting sounding “Maria: Nazi Smasher” (“I’ve come to sing songs and kill Nazis, and I’m all out of Nazis.”). And, the ending needs to be changed. I mean, you can’t have Nazis in a movie or video game and then not kill them — that’s almost being a Nazi-sympathizer. So, definitely more action at the end.

MARIA: “We’re the von Trapps. We sing as a family.”

*all pull out guns*

MARIA: “And we kill as a family.”

GRETEL: “The sun has gone, and to graves you all must go” *starts firing*

Also, that “Do-Re-Mi” song is cute, but it could really use some updating as well. Here’s my stab at it:

D’oh, a sound that homer makes
Ray, famous for its pizza
Me, a being filled with awesome
Fall, the time for pumpkin spice
Tso, a gen’ral’s chicken dish
Law, the thing that Judge Dredd is
T, a man who pities fools
That will bring us back to
D’oh!

Anyway, just some ideas. If Hollywood wants to hire me, my standard fee is a million dollars.

Random Thoughts: Sound of Music and Lies Obama Told Us

I’m losing faith in America that Obama is still able to give a speech in this country without someone shouting, “Shut up, loser!”

“Despite all my rage, I’m still just a rat in a cage!” Fox Butterfield, is that you?

Every argument over the rules of Russian roulette seem to end in violence.

How useful are plastic guns if we don’t have plastic bullets?

Funny. Until watching the Carrie Underwood Sound of Music tonight, I completely forgot that in 8th grade I played Max in a school production.

I don’t even know the plot. My character didn’t come in until the 2nd act, so the beginning was never very important to me.

I had a lot of lines, but pointing to an imaginary “dilapidated” castle is all I remember.

One of my two songs got cut because I wasn’t very good at singing 🙁

To update Sound of Music, they should have renamed it “Maria, Nazi Smasher” and changed the ending.

#LiesObamaToldUs “My friends call me ‘Dutch.'”

#LiesObamaToldUs “I once started a fight club.”

#LiesObamaToldUs “I can’t name all the Power Rangers.”

#LiesObamaToldUs “I ain’t afraid of no ghosts.”

#LiesObamaToldUs “I have a green belt in judo.”

#LiesObamaToldUs “That’s not my fedora.”

#LiesObamaToldUs “Charlie bit me!”

#LiesObamaToldUs “I am good at the sex.”

#LiesObamaToldUs “I once found the end of a rainbow.”

#LiesObamaToldUs “A bigger kid told me it was okay.”

#LiesObamaToldUs “If you don’t stop making fun of my ears, I will stab you.”

#LiesObamaToldUs “I have a super awesome tat of a dragon.”

#LiesObamaToldUs “That’s a football injury.”

Luckily Taco Bell axed its idea of a “Have a surprise attack on some Locos Tacos!” ad.

So before modern birth control and abortion procedures existed, were women technologically incapable of being equal to men?

PRODUCTION NOTES:
#1: When creating lolbama! pictures, please caption with either black or white text, as colors like red and yellow tend to blur badly when I compress the images.

#2: Standard image size for these posts is 350px wide by whatever high. If you can have your images 350px wide before you caption them, I won’t end up shrinking your captions into illegibility when I re-size the images.

MAKE YOUR OWN: The free lolbuilder from I Can Has Cheezburger.

STYLE NOTE: Short captions are usually better. Your goal is 10 words or less, with humor value tending to increase exponentially as the number of words approaches 1.

IMAGE SOURCES: Lots of great Obama pics to be found at the White House Flickr page.

Send your submissions to lolterizt@gmail.com and – if they aren’t obscene (IMAO is a PG-13 site) and don’t suck too terribly bad – I’ll post them for you. Remember to include your name (and blog URL, if applicable) so I know who to thank.

Count on a Liberal

[High Praise! to The Right Planet]

Progressives needed to provide cover to their legislators to socialize the health care system, so they simply lied. The only fault the progressive-owned mainstream media can find with that is with us for being stupid enough to believe what the liberals told us.

I agree. If you believe anything a liberal tells you, if you imagine you can count on a liberal to hold to any particular principle when that principle stops being useful as a means to accumulate power, you are a fool.

Star Wars done Australian style, with so many inside-Australian cultural references it makes “Crocodile Dundee” look like “That 70’s Show”

Just my opinion, but I found the characters in this film a lot more likeable than the ones in “Phantom Menace”.
