If This Is Anyone But Steve Allen...
...you're stealing my bit!
So the MTV movie awards were last week. They were pretty bad this year. Worse than usual. However, I did notice something. In the opening film parody, they made fun of Mi-III. They did an extended bit off of the opening scene where Tom Cruise is tied up. Only, it was Topher Grace who had tied up Jessica Alba and put an explosive charge in her head and was threatening to shoot Flavor Flav with his pee unless Jessica told him where the Golden Popcorn was (this makes a lot more sense if you've seen Mi-III, but it does not make it funny).
This bit ends with Topher proclaiming that Jessica is ready to host the MTV movie awards because she withstood his torture. They have a tender moment. Then her head exploads.
THEY STOLE OUR BIT!! Ok, maybe they didn't steal it, since they probably filmed theirs around the same time we filmed ours, but come on! It's like the same joke. At least now we know that if nothing else, we can have a career writing for the MTV awards shows.
