Bodybuilding Mockumentary

Dear forum users,

the following prognosticates the imminent release of a mockumentary looking into the life of a bodybuilder "Ben Muscle."

We at Vexed Films hope you "like" it, as this will be the first of many productions to grace your YouTube!

Thanks <3

controversial use of prognosticates...

There weren't many laughs in the sequence so I'm interested to see what angle you're taking on the bodybuilding world - I think it's absolutely ripe for satire...but there's no indication of what angle you're taking, beyond "he's clearly not a body builder"

As a trailer it didn't grab me, but it's well enough put together - just very light on laughs.

The body Building world is absolutely ripe for satire. Its a great Idea so interested to see what you do to.

I will say I agree again where were the laughs? at this stage in your career im expecting at least 6 laughs a trailer. Man fall down, piano fall on head, man jump out on other man. These are just a few of the comedy devices made available to you so take full advantage.

We want man fall down!

cant wait for this party

dear vexed Films

I was duly awaiting an update to your prognostication. I Know a guy who does body building professionally (seriously). He is dumb and needs to be mocked when is your mockumentary going to be released?
what exactly have you done in it?

Im excited and im going to be super angry if it doesn't exactly stimulate me and get across everything I am imagining.

Also where exactly do you live? as I probably live a commutable distance so I can help with your future body building mockumentary show (assumimg you guys are planning on releasing more).

Oh whats that you want credentials assholes!!! I was born ages ago and have been super funny since I was like a fetu, well like a kid since I was a kid at least. lol The first word I ever said was motorbike and there is definitely a joke in there somewhere. anyway next thing I know im dressing up as a bush and spiderman and creating mega lols wherever I go. At least creating lols in my ol ma. one time I fel over and she said what I can't stop laughng for the tears in my eyes, or something.

Anyway love the trailer especially the bit about maw, maw lawyul supportors. And Ben m,uscle with the lights and stuff outside the house and whatever super funny. marry me, chiuou

Hey, I just wanted to say (having watched your trailer through) that I'm not sure what the exact point of the movie is???
its not very funny.

Lotus I don't think your expectations are quite realistic tbh, you can't expect everything to be exactly as you like and you have to accept comedy for what it is. Peopl have different senes of humour.

So I think I'm gonna have to agree with you, comedyofllifelf. very light on laughs. what kind of body builder has to start as a weaker man anyway?! But very light on laughs. I mean,

But it will be interesting to see what this turns out to be like. Very ripe for comedy, and a VERY touchy subject these days. just very light on laughs. Man fall down please
btw the way what is the audio? just joshing ya ;)

comedyoflife- it seems this is for connoisseurs of fine comedy. The bodybuilders loved it; http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=138508973&p=759001083#post759001083. please advise how to make it heavier on laughs.

lotuspanther- whilst I personally would love to see more piano fall on head it's quite hard to do given financial and health and safety restrictions. As for your credentials they seem to check out fine.

philip erskine- man fall down will have to make an appearance in our next production. btw, btw is a self enclosed acronym. just joshing ya

I thought it was light on laughs too ( see light of life and my conversation above)After repeted views I realise there is more to it then ever met my eye.

First of all there s the music I think its rage isnt it? Not the video game lololo the band rage against machine. You can keep that joke and put it in your next one. Or I can when I come down to wherever, you never Said vexed film, and write it for you.

First man says have you played that rage? other man says who me? yes you. No I havent I have never mastered anything that rift heavy before don't you find... (interrupt) No!! silly not that raghe on the machine just rage the video game made by computers. pianmo falls simultainiously onto the heads of both men whilst siumtaionioulsyl being surprised by another man whislt playing rage on guitar. That is irony for you.

Who the hell is philip eErskine to come to come barging onto my thread. who dieed and made you copycat kin to the light of love see above. Damn it why can't I go back and check what people have said I can't remeber what you guys said.. hold on

Checked whose thread it was. Oh dear.

When I speak I own skinny M P and you would do well to remember that. How on Earth do you have 12000 Posts. Does the P in your name stand for postman pat but you are shying away from the limelight these day?

Well guess what you got busted. I Own so hard!!!

that link takes you to a forum discussing the lowest calorie alcoholic drink for bodybuilders (which is amusing in itself). Advising on how to make it heavier on laughs would take a long time and as I'm not a "connoissuer of fine comedy", I doubt you'd want that advice anyway.

Keep it exactly how it is, online bodybuilders like it, so how could it possibly fail!

I was saying that this forum is for the "connoissuer of fine comedy," although perhaps this was not clear. So, pray advise.

Oh dear.
