Scrappleface continues his comedic genius.
(2006-11-24) — In an effort to make its film about the birth of the Christ more relevant to the holiday season, New Line Cinema today released a re-cut version of its promotional trailer for ‘The Nativity Story‘, incorporating elements of other popular holiday classics like ‘Deck the Halls’ and ‘Deja Vu’.
The re-released trailer comes after focus groups told New Line that the original commercial “lacked a strong holiday appeal.”
“We acknowledge that a baby born in a manger 2,000 years ago has little relevance for today’s audiences,” said an unnamed studio spokesman, “but we’re hoping the new spot will let us ride the coattails of these other films that capture the meaning of the holidays more explicitly.”

Wow! What a foul smelling turgid lump of rotted horse excrement that was! I guess it just shows how unbelievably out of touch hollywood (small H intentional) really is. Just unbelievable!
Too funny.
I guess that’s what they mean by “proclaimable.”
As far as I know (but please anyone correct me if I’m wrong), Scrappleface is a satire/parody site, so this is not a real news story. Jeff pretty much implies this in the first line of this post. I just wanted to mention that for anyone who may think that this is a real news story. (Though certainly it sounds like something that could be real!)
LOL – that was good.
The best part is that it is believeable that the reaction could actually be true
Scrappleface has gotten many of us. His parodies unfortunately sound all too realistic.
I guess good parody/satire shows the reasonable potential lunacy of reality. I fell for it…but let’s be honest…how far is this from what they (hollywood) really thinks?
I agree with Fr. BP. A satire, but one likely to be true.
