National Lampoon Makes "300" Spoof

Posted by SexiVixxEN 428 days ago
The revived National Lampoon, which hasn't thrown a toga party since "Animal House," is pulling out the sheets for another one. The company has set a fall start for "National Lampoon's 301: The Legend of Awesomest Maximus Wallace Leonidas," a spoof of such sword-and-sandal films as "300," "Troy," "Gladiator" and "Braveheart." Jason Burinescu wrote the script.

Protag is Awesomest, an out-of-shape Spartan general who fails forward on a path to greatness.

"As we aggressively move into the inhouse film production business, '301' is the kind of project we get very excited about," National Lampoon rep said. "This will be a great complement to our library."

    The only REALLY good National Lampoon movie I really respect and can watch over and over again and is actually one of my favorite movies of all time is Loaded weapon 1.
    If they would make a sequil to that I would love it otherwise I have really yet to see one that knocks me over.
    all the spoofs lately from anyone have been really bad like EPIC MOVIE Bad.
    Bring back Naked gun type of movies please now those have great writing in them.

    I really lost faith in National Lampoon since Chevy Chase left them. Until they brought out the Dorm Daze movies. And even after them, I don't have any faith in National Lampoon whatsoever. But, maybe this could work for them. It's kinda like Scary Movie, which I'm not really into, but without the scare. I think it could work, but they have to pull it off perfectly.

    I didn't like Animal House at all, and if this is going to be like that, then I don't want to see it. But if it's just going to be a parody, then it might have something going for it. Especially if Chevy Chase gets on the project. But I doubt he will.

    I have seen plenty of great 300 spoofs, but a full length movie might not work out too well. Especially if it's done by National Lampoon!
