Thursday evening, I attended Campus Moviefest with recurring Propeller Skies character Lisa and her friend Lori. The hopelessly lame theme of the event was “good goes around.” Not coincidentally, good goes around is the slogan of Delta Airlines. We here at the Prizzo Skeezy nominate it as the Worst. Slogan. Ever. Seriously, what the fuck kind of tree-hugging hippie bullshit is that? We suggest that they change it to a more reality based slogan. Examples include, but are not limited to:
- Vaporizing shareholder value through poor management;
- Platinum parachutes for rotten executives; or
- Delay, delay, flight cancelled!
This was not an event that I would normally have gone to, because movie theatres and booze do not generally go together in this country. However, when Lisa mentioned it, I figured it would be a great opportunity to meet some young, college age women. I was wrong.
The short films put together by the students were very creative, but technically a nightmare. My absolute favorite was Cocaine The Musical, which was fucking hilarious. The first place winner, What Mocks A Good Movie, was created by people with far too much time on their hands. It is fucking hysterical, because of the witty dialog and the innovative use of stop motion animation featuring Legos®.
This was a really cool event, made even better by my 99x* Freeloader Card** that got me in for half price. I recommend stopping by this event. I would highly recommend it, but the corporate sponsorship was extremely heavy handed.
notes:
* Not that I would ever be caught dead listening to corporate radio.
** That’s right, I’m a card carrying Freegan, bitches.

Glad you thought our movie was the best. We got disqualified at UGA, and bitched a lot to get it judged at the Fox (we didn’t want to win, we just wanted people to see it). I’d like to hear your comments and see if our movie had any of the techincal nightmares in it; we want the next movie to be better. Anyway, thanks for liking it.
