Not Another Teen Movie

Note: Post comes from my old sky fortress site.

After a long day of throwing Jarg’s feces at unsuspecting passer-bys, Jarg said to himself. I want to see a moving containing similar potty humor, as it were. So, Jarg goes to see Not Another Teen Movie (NATM). What Jarg this is simple. NATM start with bad premise, then execute poorly. Jarg think it’s not a bad idea to mock, or parody if you will, serious teen movies like, She’s All That. However, Jarg think it utterly idiotic to try to parody bad teen comedies like American Pie. It take a crack bunch to accomplish a goal like that, none of those chattering meat puppets were up to it.
Biggest problem with this steaming pile of manure is movies NATM tries pathetically to parody are funnier than it. It make Jarg laugh just to think of this horrible failure. Most films are from 90′s, however the director and his cracked writers try to reach back into the 80s…poor 80s…Though NATM mainly stick with pop movies, there were some desperate titles such as Rudy that were referenced. Jarg not know why such things occur. Jarg think that if humor is not understanding, Jarg’s sides should be slitting…they are not.

Story…ahh story, Jarg think hard to try to recall story. Something about She’s all that, or some kind of take off of that. Often times, Jarg was too busy hurling his own feces at screen. The main characters were just your typical teen movie characters, such as the token black guy, the over sexed evil sister etc… The biggest problem says Jarg, is that by making character cliché is a cliché. Jarg says so, thus it must be.

Jarg think only interesting part is cleverness. Now, Jarg not confuse you, not much clever in movie, it just have moments. Jarg somewhat liked background sounds that pointed out bizzareness of situations. “What the hell is she doing here? She graduated four years ago!”

Final Thoughts: Jarg think everyone should see this movie. Then, everyone feel bad for Jarg.

The ape that retrieved this filth for Jarg to watch was chased out of Sky fortress with stones. Jarg think that ape is not “happily” living in exile.
