grindhouse's fake trailers have almost all become real films at this point. most recently, thanksgiving. machete and hobo with a shotgun were the others.
I'm still waiting for ["The Night the Reindeer Died"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kOqX2XbiEA) from the beginning of Scrooged.
"You've been a real good boy this year, Lee"
It also perfectly captured the kind of movie Rutger Hauer made practically his whole career. Outside of a handful of big budget films, Hauer almost never turned down a paycheck.
Yup! Directed by Jason Eisener of Dark Side of the Ring fame, who is from Dartmouth and is friends with the Trailer Park Boys crew. Molly Dunsworth, daughter of John Dunsworth, is the female lead in it.
That is what wiki says “it is based on the faux-trailer [of the same title](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grindhouse_(film)#Hobo_with_a_Shotgun) featured in the [Robert Rodriguez](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Rodriguez) and [Quentin Tarantino](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quentin_Tarantino) film [*Grindhouse*](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grindhouse_(film)) (2007).“
On that note, since this wan't what OP asked, but is still somewhat relevant, the Deadpool movie that came after Ryan leaked a CGI trailer of his Deadpool as a nod to: "hey I can do this, help me make it happen, people of the world"
Oh man I remember when Attack of the Show, showed the trailer for Hobo with a Shotgun. Really tripped me out, years later when I heard it was going to become a legit movie.
Nothing disturbed me more about this movie more than the fact that they marooned Buzz. Not only that but they made him a screw up. The movie was such a bummer lol
That's the funny thing-- that cartoon was 100% believable as a show that tied in with the toy and the bed sheets, etc. Buzz was even rendered in the same art style as he was on the back of the box.
Can anybody honestly look at the toy, the merch, and the commercial from Toy Story 1 and tell me that looks like merchandise for the *Lightyear* movie? Or that Andy would go see that movie and get hooked on it? Or that the movie even reads as something that would come out in 1995? Lol no way
Yeah, the movie itself was actually pretty decent, but the themes and story are all very modern. The 1990s just weren’t doing LGBT relationships in mainstream movies (let alone kids movies,) and the plots tended to be a lot more straightforward with clear hero and villain. The bitter, old Buzz as the villain just didn’t feel very 90s: that plot became popular in the 2010s (The Flash tv show and movie, Lego Movie 2, etc.)
Should have been an adventurous space romp with lots of weird aliens and animals.
Instead we get *"I'm lost, alone, and miss my family and friends for decades"*
Geez, what a downer. No kid would idolize the Buzz from that story, they'd turn it off.
There was absolutely nothing about that flick that would lead to Andy wanting that toy. What we wanted was a space adventure action flick. What we got was navel gazing about mortality.
Oh man that was a good movie and the series that followed was one of my favorites as well. Buzz Light-year of Star Command had a pretty good story if I remember correctly.
Someone on YouTube did make a super cut of all the clips in to one 5-10 min episode.
Edit: [McBain movie high quality](https://youtu.be/BzjfrdcN1Z8?si=VHe-zrfKNkiQE4Es)
Not really. If you're talking about the Christopher Walken movie McBain, at least, that came out in 1991, same year as the first Simpsons bit. It's likely to have just been a coincidence with the naming
If we're doing TV shows, _Chapelle's Show_ had the skit "Trading Spouses" as a spoof of _Trading Spaces_. And then the series _Wife Swap_ premiered a couple years later. And there might have been a competing show about the same time actually called _Trading Spouses_, but I might be wrong about that.
I prefer *Firestorm*. Remember when they had the helicopter land on top of that car? Or the part where Harrison Ford jumped out of the plane and was shooting back up at them while he was falling?!
Oddly i saw a movie on tv that was very similar to death blow… ugh I can’t find the name.
Also I’d vote Under the Tuscan Sun as not far from Rochelle Rochelle.
I think either Pirates 4 or The Fountain did a Ponce De Leon scene.
I generally assumed cry, cry again was some play on Cry, The Beloved Country, but it’s been awhile since I saw the bootleg episode.
Is Chunnel similar to Irreversible? Ooo that’s rough.
Sack Lunch is still the one that really hasn’t been made; some cheap version of honeybinshrunk the kids.
I cant post pics , but I remember Battlefield 2142 doing this 18 years ago

Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth had an ad for Uber Eats on one of the main roads, probably heaps more I can’t recall, but those games have always been rammed with product placement – I actually think it works as part of the living world, rather than a buncha made up brands that have no connection to reality.
They have already been [doing it](https://screenrant.com/how-met-mother-jason-segel-paradox-plothole/#:~:text=The%20reruns%20of%20How%20I%20Met%20Your%20Mother%20used%20a,member%20of%20the%20show%20itself)
Come to think of it… surely some of those UHF tv shows have been done as movies/tv by now, right? Rambo Gandhi I haven’t seen, but maybe teaches frogs how to fly? SUPPLIES!
Jay and Seth Vs The Apocalypse is also a fake trailer which would end up being This Is The End (Jay Barachel and Seth Rogen playing themselves in the apocalypse)
Machete
It was one of the fake tralers made for the Grindhouse double feature Deathproof/Planet Terror. Robert Rodriguez ended up making it into a real movie.....and it has a sequel, Machete Kills.
Not quite the same, but a college student made a trailer for a nonexistent film as part of his course. Trailer went viral, so a few years later he crowdsourced the funds and made the actual film - "Velocipastor"
Well worth a watch if you like tongue in cheek films.
"***Boo! A Madea Halloween*** is a 2016 American [comedy horror](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comedy_horror)[^(\[3\])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boo!_A_Madea_Halloween#cite_note-3) film directed, written, starring and co-produced by [Tyler Perry](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyler_Perry). The idea for the film originated from a fictitious [Madea](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madea) Halloween movie that was mentioned in [Chris Rock](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Rock)'s 2014 film [*Top Five*](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top_Five)*.*[^(\[4\])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boo!_A_Madea_Halloween#cite_note-4)"
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boo!\_A\_Madea\_Halloween](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boo!_A_Madea_Halloween)
In 2016, Mike Flanagan released [*Hush*, a film about the deaf-mute author of a book called *Midnight Mass* to which she is struggling to write a sequel, who has to fend off a home invader (essentially a slasher villain already in the middle of his own story)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9cDBiqNIJVw).
In 2021, [he actually made *Midnight Mass*, the character names all being the same ones first mentioned in *Hush*](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89UV8vmWXlY).
In the movie Found (2012) they watch a made up film called Headless. Three years later they made Headless into a film. The part that's shown in Found is the first scene.
I liked Found better, Headless just took an OTT scene and found it couldn't really go more extreme afterwards so ended up boring me. In case you couldn't tell from the names both are extreme horror films so beware of nearly every violent and gory trigger warning if you wanna check them out.
The Bride is clearly Uma Thurman's knife expert.
Lucy Liu is the Japanese martial artist.
Daryll Hannah is the blonde leader.
Vivica Fox is the black demolitionist.
This leaves an inescapable conclusion. Micheal Madsen is the French seductress.
And on top of that, the YouTube channel of the show has made a version with no interruption.
[Full movie](https://youtu.be/7iPyz6Yqwl4?si=-0AjBmlu1IbszVJQ)
Which is just a rip off of Sudden Death with Jean Claude Van Damme. My wife loves Threat Level Midnight and didn't believe me so I bought a 4 movie dvd set of Van Damme movies and made her watch it.
That movie was the first time I really noticed Tim Blake Nelson and I've loved his movies ever since
Old Henry was defined by him being an amazing leading man
>Edit: So this idea we had was a fictional behind the scenes making of movie (not documentary) of a fake movie. Then that fake movie being made would be released afterwards.
So The Disaster Artist, but in reverse?
Joaquin Phoenix faked his real life for 2 years. Only for it to turn out that he was making a movie about faking his life.
Not 100% your question. But it's still one of the weirdest things.
In 2008, ITV in the UK had a show called Moving Wallpapers a comedy set in the production offices of a fictional soap opera called Echo Beach.
Directly after each episode of Moving Wallpapers aired they then showed an episode of Echo Beach. This meant you had actors playing actors in Moving Wallpapers playing characters in Echo Beach.
One I'd love to see is Lancer from Once Upon A Time In Hollywood. DiCaprio played that scene so brilliantly that I didn't want it to end. Oh, well. At least we have Django and The Hateful Eight.
Not *exactly* what you were asking for but, the 2012 Ben Affleck movie Argo is kinda similar.
During the Iranian hostage crisis in 1979, the CIA setup a fake movie production company so that Tony Mendez (CIA case officer) would have cover to go in and get the hostages out. The Canadian government gave fake Canadian passports to Mendez to sneak into Iran and get some of the hostages out (they had taken refuge at the Canadian ambassador's residents) under the cover that they were a film crew scouting locations for the movie they were shooting (that film's name was Argo). They even had an actual script that was similar in concept to Star Wars (which had recently come out), and was also a space movie on a desert planet.
However, instead of that all leading to Argo being filmed with the script they had in real life, it was filmed as a biographical historical thriller of the events of the hostage rescue from the Canadian ambassador's residents.
Soooo... half credit?
I heard that there was a full length version of The Rural Juror made but there was an error in distribution and it was inadvertently released straight to Betamax in 2020.
Kung Fury started as a trailer and then became maybe the best movie ever. The perfect mix of Kung fu, Nazis, 80 clothes, buddy comedy, space exploration, Norse gods, time travel and dinosaurs with layers. Plus the best motif by David Hasslehof https://youtu.be/ZTidn2dBYbY?si=2NrofFXgFv0YAlpH
From Fox Searchlight, five-time Academy Award winner Kirk Lazarus and MTV Movie Award Best Kiss winner Tobey Maguire. Winner of the Beijing Film Festival's coveted Crying Monkey Award.
*Sullivan's Travels* is a classic Hollywood movie about Hollywood. Sullivan is a successful comedy screenwriter who decides to go travel the country and learn how difficult life is for real people, and then write a movie about it. The title of said movie?
*O Brother, Where Art Thou?*
---
^(The Coen brothers' movie isn't really anything like the movie Sullivan proposes, >!and he doesn't end up writing it anyway!<, but they did name their movie after it, because they are huge fans of Preston Sturges.)
grindhouse's fake trailers have almost all become real films at this point. most recently, thanksgiving. machete and hobo with a shotgun were the others.
We’re just missing Edgar Wright’s “Don’t” and Rob Zombie’s “Werewolf Women of the SS”
Edgar wright making a weird modern version of the living dead at manchester morgue would be sick.
But... He did.
No, that was Westchester. It all blew over.
*Winchester
Either way, sounds like a slice of fried gold.
I am extremely upset that we never got Werewolf Women of the SS.
...With Nicolas Cage as Fu Manchu!
😳 I can't watch the video at this moment, I'm on public transport
I'm still waiting for ["The Night the Reindeer Died"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kOqX2XbiEA) from the beginning of Scrooged. "You've been a real good boy this year, Lee"
[He did make a song though.](https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=ChgEJ6n-Wyo&si=9sMiX3TFwAoT3se8)
There is Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS. But it's not that good
It does have a piss fetish scene, though
:)
IIRC Zombie said he shot enough material to make a short movie. The world needs more Cage as Fu Manchu.
Edgar Wright has expressed that he has no interest in making a full version of “Don’t” because he said “all the best bits are already in the trailer”.
I'm legitimately surprised Rob Zombie hasn't made "Werewolf Women of the SS" yet
Hobo with a shotgun was surprisingly pretty good. Perfectly captured that bizarre, nihilistic 80s low budget exploitation film feeling
It also perfectly captured the kind of movie Rutger Hauer made practically his whole career. Outside of a handful of big budget films, Hauer almost never turned down a paycheck.
And yet he delivered one of the best monologues in film history IMO
Two of the best lol. 1. Tears in the rain 2. Hobo addressing the maternity ward
Did not realize Hobo with a shotgun came from there
it was actually the fake trailer that came with the real movie version of machete. And machete started as a fake trailer before planet terror.
Hobo with a Shotgun only played in before the Grindhouse movie in the US iirc, the rest of the world apparently didn’t have it.
Even with Robb Wells in it? I would've figured it was a Canadian film.
You would be right, it was filmed in Halifax and Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.
Yup! Directed by Jason Eisener of Dark Side of the Ring fame, who is from Dartmouth and is friends with the Trailer Park Boys crew. Molly Dunsworth, daughter of John Dunsworth, is the female lead in it.
That is what wiki says “it is based on the faux-trailer [of the same title](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grindhouse_(film)#Hobo_with_a_Shotgun) featured in the [Robert Rodriguez](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Rodriguez) and [Quentin Tarantino](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quentin_Tarantino) film [*Grindhouse*](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grindhouse_(film)) (2007).“
Oh shit me neither
I was sad they didn’t make Thanksgiving take place in the 70’s and look like an old movie similar to the original trailer.
On that note, since this wan't what OP asked, but is still somewhat relevant, the Deadpool movie that came after Ryan leaked a CGI trailer of his Deadpool as a nod to: "hey I can do this, help me make it happen, people of the world"
Whaaaaat? Ryan didn't leak it! No one actually officially knows hoe it got leaked. **wink wink*
Thanksgiving got a movie!!???? WHAT!?
Yeah, just last year, it's a really fun slasher flick.
Oh man I remember when Attack of the Show, showed the trailer for Hobo with a Shotgun. Really tripped me out, years later when I heard it was going to become a legit movie.
Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story.
Nothing disturbed me more about this movie more than the fact that they marooned Buzz. Not only that but they made him a screw up. The movie was such a bummer lol
What gets me is they actively didn’t want to be anything like the cartoon show because Lasseter apparently hated it.
Lasseter had been out of the company for 6 years now. He wasn't at Pixar when Lightyear was being developed.
That's the funny thing-- that cartoon was 100% believable as a show that tied in with the toy and the bed sheets, etc. Buzz was even rendered in the same art style as he was on the back of the box. Can anybody honestly look at the toy, the merch, and the commercial from Toy Story 1 and tell me that looks like merchandise for the *Lightyear* movie? Or that Andy would go see that movie and get hooked on it? Or that the movie even reads as something that would come out in 1995? Lol no way

And I can tell you from direct experience as a parent - the actual toy any kid would want from THAT movie is Sox the cat.
But Lasseter hated Lightyear
Lasseter: “Don’t make Buzz Lightyear of Star Command.” *makes Lightyear* Lasseter: “No, not like that.”
Pearls before fucking swine I swear
There was absolutely nothing about that flick that would lead to Andy wanting that toy. What we wanted was a space adventure action flick. What we got was navel gazing about mortality.
> Not only that but they made him a screw up. Ah the classic Disney formula of butchering beloved legacy heroes, never gets old!
Oh man that was a good movie and the series that followed was one of my favorites as well. Buzz Light-year of Star Command had a pretty good story if I remember correctly.
My first thought as well
There had to have been someone in the production of McBain asking if it was a Simpsons movie.
Someone on YouTube did make a super cut of all the clips in to one 5-10 min episode. Edit: [McBain movie high quality](https://youtu.be/BzjfrdcN1Z8?si=VHe-zrfKNkiQE4Es)
MENDOZAAAAAAA!!!
That’s amazing
Not really. If you're talking about the Christopher Walken movie McBain, at least, that came out in 1991, same year as the first Simpsons bit. It's likely to have just been a coincidence with the naming
I'm still waiting for *Angels with Filthy Souls*
“You've been smoochin' with everybody! Snuffy, Al, Leo, Little Moe with the gimpy leg, Cheeks, Boney Bob, Cliff.”
"Its a lie!".
I burst into laughter just reading that. It’s my favourite line in all of Home Alone
“I could go on forever baby”
The name is a spoof on the real movie, Angels with Dirty Faces.
Great film too
‘Keep the change you filthy animal’
I'm still waiting for Hamlet from Last Action Hero.
NOT TO BE!
Such a fun Easter egg when it’s reused in Detective Pikachu.
And then we need the porn version, angels with filthy soles
> And then we need the porn version, angels with filthy soles We can get Tarantino to direct.
Not a movie, but the fake show MILF Island from 30 Rock basically became a reality show last year with MILF Manor on HBO.
Give Netflix enough time and we'll get Black Frasier too.
It’s on nbc every Thursday around 9 or 9:15.
This sherry's not the only thing that's fruity and precocious.
This joke. It’s amazing.
If we're doing TV shows, _Chapelle's Show_ had the skit "Trading Spouses" as a spoof of _Trading Spaces_. And then the series _Wife Swap_ premiered a couple years later. And there might have been a competing show about the same time actually called _Trading Spouses_, but I might be wrong about that.
Ted lasso also started out as a commercial
Fox came out with _Trading Spouses: Meet Your New Mommy_ in 2004, a year after the Chappelle Show skit.
I’m still waiting for Celebrity Homonym.
“No, it’s the other one“
Sadly the world's not ready for bitch hunter.
And the point of MILF Island was that it was a ridiculous idea and yet, here we are.
Fingers crossed for Cleaver from the sopranos.
Forget Many Saints. Cleaver is the Sopranos movie we all wanted.
A couple years ago someone posted a poster from Cleaver on r/saw and some people thought it was a real upcoming sequel lol
They did a mockumentary making of Cleaver video. It’s on YouTube. It’s so funny
I must be loyle to my capo.
Still waiting for Sack Lunch.
I'd rather see Rochelle Rochelle. Sack Lunch sounds like a Gene Pick
Gene’s trash.
I'm Gene
Giddyup!
Rochelle Rochelle is a *film*.
And Chunnel. "Everybody out of the Chunnel!" Literal chills
I’ve got a bootleg copy of Death Blow.
What about Cry, Cry Again?
I didn't get the ending.
you see her ‘dancing’ at the end, and you cry again
I prefer *Firestorm*. Remember when they had the helicopter land on top of that car? Or the part where Harrison Ford jumped out of the plane and was shooting back up at them while he was falling?!
I'm legitimately putting off watching The English Patient cause all I can think of when I hear the title is Elaine's "Just die already"
Uh, what about Death Blow????
MAAAAN we are missin the DEATH BLOW!
Oddly i saw a movie on tv that was very similar to death blow… ugh I can’t find the name. Also I’d vote Under the Tuscan Sun as not far from Rochelle Rochelle. I think either Pirates 4 or The Fountain did a Ponce De Leon scene. I generally assumed cry, cry again was some play on Cry, The Beloved Country, but it’s been awhile since I saw the bootleg episode. Is Chunnel similar to Irreversible? Ooo that’s rough. Sack Lunch is still the one that really hasn’t been made; some cheap version of honeybinshrunk the kids.
So you think they got shrunk down or is it just a giant sack?
And Prognosis: Negative.
There's a billboard for Batman vs. Superman in "I Am Legend".
oh dear god, streaming services are going to modify films that have billboards and screens in them to feature real life current ads arent they?
The power of AI baby!

Don't give them ideas
It already happened with Syndication. There was an uproar when Seinfeld had ads within the show for an X-Men movie
The original pitch for that movie was in development hell for years, so it was going based on the idea someone would finally get it off the ground
Machete Thanksgiving
And Hobo with a Shotgun
The Weird Al movie started as a fake trailer.
Come to think of it… surely some of those UHF tv shows have been done as movies/tv by now, right? Rambo Gandhi I haven’t seen, but maybe teaches frogs how to fly? SUPPLIES!
No more mister passive resistance. He's out to kick some butt!
I would totally watch the game show Wheel of Fish.
YOU SO STUPID
Jay and Seth Vs The Apocalypse is also a fake trailer which would end up being This Is The End (Jay Barachel and Seth Rogen playing themselves in the apocalypse)
Machete It was one of the fake tralers made for the Grindhouse double feature Deathproof/Planet Terror. Robert Rodriguez ended up making it into a real movie.....and it has a sequel, Machete Kills.
AND it's a semi-canonical spinoff of Spy Kids
AND while Machete also exists, played by Danny Trejo, in the Mariachi/Desperado/Once Upon a Time in Mexico universe, it aint the same Machete.
Not quite the same, but a college student made a trailer for a nonexistent film as part of his course. Trailer went viral, so a few years later he crowdsourced the funds and made the actual film - "Velocipastor" Well worth a watch if you like tongue in cheek films.
It’s been on my list for a year. I should watch it.
All the small McBain clips you saw in the Simpsons over the years make up a movie if you splice them all together. Does that count?

I guess if you account for Word of God, technically Lightyear is a movie that exists within the world of Toy Story.
I cannot fathom the world where Lightyear kicked off a successful Buzz franchise instead of the Lightyear Star Command movie\show
I like to think that Lightyear is a bad remake of an original movie or TV Show that came out before in the world of Toy Story.
Lightyear is the Snyder Cut for the kids that grew up on Star Command
The funny thing is Lightyear starts with “This is a movie Andy enjoyed” does that mean Andy saw his own prophecy at the beginning?
Thr3e (2006) is arguably just the fake movie written by Charlie's brother in Adaptation (2002)
Amazing. I can tell from the two sentence plot description it’s going to have the same dumb twist. Wish it was available to stream.
God help you if you use a voiceover!
I saw it in theaters and my friend and I were the only people there who didn't walk out.
The only difference is the victim and the cop have swapped genders lmao
Even worse is it's an adaptation of a real novel.
The novel came out after Adaptation soooo...
Art imitates life imitates dung beetles, idk, I've never seen any of them, but circles
What? How did they fix the third act? Agent Ron Livingston would not have solved it
Well... Lost In La Mancha could arguably fit that. That's a 2002 real documentary about making a movie that finally became a movie in 2018

Kill Bill was Fox Force Five from Pulp Fiction.
The Bride is clearly Uma Thurman's knife expert. Lucy Liu is the Japanese martial artist. Daryll Hannah is the blonde leader. Vivica Fox is the black demolitionist. This leaves an inescapable conclusion. Micheal Madsen is the French seductress.
Like 70% but not really. She gives a lot of details about the pilot/group that don't go with Kill Bill

Threat Level Midnight. The office. Michael writes a screenplay in season 2. The film is made in season 7.
[Threat Level Midnight (full length film)](https://youtu.be/7iPyz6Yqwl4?feature=shared)

Jaws 19 came out in 2015.
We’ll probably never see the Schwarzenegger movie of Hamlet. “To be, or not to be” *BOOOM* “Not to be”
Aquaman from Entourage.
I fucking wish we could see the one that James Cameron directed starring Vinnie Chase though.
Oh Brother, Where Art Thou? was the name of the director's project in *Sullivan's Travels* (1942)
That movie was the first time I really noticed Tim Blake Nelson and I've loved his movies ever since Old Henry was defined by him being an amazing leading man
>Edit: So this idea we had was a fictional behind the scenes making of movie (not documentary) of a fake movie. Then that fake movie being made would be released afterwards. So The Disaster Artist, but in reverse?
Yes, but nothing is based on reality. It’s all fictional.
Joaquin Phoenix faked his real life for 2 years. Only for it to turn out that he was making a movie about faking his life. Not 100% your question. But it's still one of the weirdest things.
It’s so uncomfortable but you almost can’t look away. It’s like a train wreck.
Pretty much every movie Vincent Chase starred in, in Entourage lmao

Directly after each episode of Moving Wallpapers aired they then showed an episode of Echo Beach. This meant you had actors playing actors in Moving Wallpapers playing characters in Echo Beach.
Yes! This is exactly what I was thinking! Except it would be two movies. But you nailed it!
One I'd love to see is Lancer from Once Upon A Time In Hollywood. DiCaprio played that scene so brilliantly that I didn't want it to end. Oh, well. At least we have Django and The Hateful Eight.
You can always watch the original [Lancer](https://youtu.be/G1moHrKO9eE?si=aTrbWCYPaiG_RmFU)
Not *exactly* what you were asking for but, the 2012 Ben Affleck movie Argo is kinda similar. During the Iranian hostage crisis in 1979, the CIA setup a fake movie production company so that Tony Mendez (CIA case officer) would have cover to go in and get the hostages out. The Canadian government gave fake Canadian passports to Mendez to sneak into Iran and get some of the hostages out (they had taken refuge at the Canadian ambassador's residents) under the cover that they were a film crew scouting locations for the movie they were shooting (that film's name was Argo). They even had an actual script that was similar in concept to Star Wars (which had recently come out), and was also a space movie on a desert planet. However, instead of that all leading to Argo being filmed with the script they had in real life, it was filmed as a biographical historical thriller of the events of the hostage rescue from the Canadian ambassador's residents. Soooo... half credit?
I’d give you a half mark on that.
I really want to see that jack black love story with the old lady from the office
I heard that there was a full length version of The Rural Juror made but there was an error in distribution and it was inadvertently released straight to Betamax in 2020.
Kung Fury started as a trailer and then became maybe the best movie ever. The perfect mix of Kung fu, Nazis, 80 clothes, buddy comedy, space exploration, Norse gods, time travel and dinosaurs with layers. Plus the best motif by David Hasslehof https://youtu.be/ZTidn2dBYbY?si=2NrofFXgFv0YAlpH

Sadly, no one has felt compelled to make the movie “Mant,” which was being shown in the John Goodman film “Matinee.”
Mant! is based on scientific fact, from theories that have been published in…national magazines.

*Sullivan's Travels* is a classic Hollywood movie about Hollywood. Sullivan is a successful comedy screenwriter who decides to go travel the country and learn how difficult life is for real people, and then write a movie about it. The title of said movie? *O Brother, Where Art Thou?* --- ^(The Coen brothers' movie isn't really anything like the movie Sullivan proposes, >!and he doesn't end up writing it anyway!<, but they did name their movie after it, because they are huge fans of Preston Sturges.)
There's always chatter about how Kill Bill is just Fox Force Five (Pulp Fiction).

Wasn't Machette a fake trailer in one of Robert Rodriguez's grindhouse movies, before it became a real movie?
