Oct 16 2009 Actual 'Spy Next Door' Poster Marks End of Spoof Movie Posters

Where else could you go from this point? There's no combination of elements that would be more ridiculous than this title, Jackie Chan equipped with grappling hook and laser pointer, the tagline "spying is easy, babysitting is hard," children, a pig, and the names Billy Ray Cyrus and George Lopez. What could you do to make that more ridiculous? Add a dog? There's already a small pig! And it's probably voiced by either Billy Ray Cyrus or George Lopez! Absurd.

Sorry, professional spoof movie makers (that's a profession): you've just been driven out of business by actual movie makers.

Aug 5 2008 Jackie Chan Will Star in Thing with Spies, Babysitting, Internet

I've got some good news if you're into Jackie Chan and rage-inducing comedy: Jackie Chan has a new rage-inducing comedy coming out. From the Hollywood Reporter:

Jackie Chan is taking his martial-arts high jinks to the neighbors, signing on to star in "The Spy Next Door," an action comedy to be financed by Relativity Media and directed by veteran studio helmer Brian Levant.

Jonathan Bernstein and Jim Greer are penning the screenplay for "Spy," which centers on a man (Chan) who is called to baby-sit his neighbor's children and winds up having to fight off secret agents after one of the kids inadvertently downloads a secret code.

Well, at least the reasoning for Jackie Chan defending kids from secret agents is sound. It's because he's a spy living in a suburban neighborhood and babysitting some kids. And something with the internet. (I love the internet!)
