Post by bunniefuu »

You tell him I want him out of that trailer.

I want him out of that trailer right now.

I don't care if he's exhausted.

This is my movie.

If I come down there, you--

Do you hear me? Are you listening to me?

Stella, there's a nick cannon here.

Who?

Stella stolper. How are you doing?

Do you have an appointment?

I'm a very busy person.

I just want to pitch you a film just real fast.

Can I just pitch the movie? Please? Please?

You got seconds, kid.

All right, cool.

It's a great film about martians and munchkins,

And they attack the world.

And this guy sergio, he saves the world.

And his love interest ramona, she's great.

She'll be played by any, like,

Big "a" list actress.

And the munchkins take ramona up into mars,

And then sergio has to go to mars and save her.

He's fighting, kicking the munchkins off,

And he's kicking and he's kicking them.

And all of a sudden at the end, he screams,

"No, ramona! No, ramona!"

What do you think?

Nick: but wait!

I didn't get to tell her

The part about when the munchkins go and do double dutch!

Wait! You ain't got to pull on me, man!

This is a hit movie!

Fine! I don't need this studio!

sh**t. I wrote this movie,

I'm gonna produce this movie,

I'm gonna direct this movie.

I'll put this movie out by myself.

Come on, driver, man. Let's go.

They've been waiting for a guy like me

To come in and just take over.

I got my suit, chillin'.

Got my glasses, got my cell phone.

I'm ready to make it happen.

All I need now is a parking space with my name on it.

We gonna find that. We gonna make it happen.

Hey, you guys know where I can find some movie stars?

You know where I can find some movie stars?

No, I don't, man.

Man: yeah, up around the corner.

Around the corner to get some movie stars?

Oh, yeah.

You know any movie stars?

You're looking at one.

You--that is you, huh?

That's me.

Shaft. Loved you.

Movie stars in here?

Movie stars in here?

I didn't mean to interrupt.

Do your thing, player.

Are you a movie star?

[Laughing] no.

Are you sure you're not a movie star?

[Laughing]

You're acting like one.

Are you a movie star?

I've seen you somewhere.

I have a great script for you.

I'm producing, directing.

It's called martian munchkins attack.

Give me a line-read for ramona right there.

"I can't believe the alien munchkins from mars

Have stranded us on this desert island."

Wow. That was great.

Have my people call your people. Ok.

Pardon me, pardon me.

Are either of you movie stars?

He's a movie star maybe some day.

Doing a great film called martian munchkins attack.

Would you like to read for it?

"If my experience as a waiter has taught me anything,

"It's that people hate it when you drop their food

And pick it off the ground and serve it to them."

That was great. I'll have my people call your people.

Excuse me, sir, are you a movie star?

No, I'm not.

You sure? Because I'm doing a great film.

It's the next big film.

Oh, are you?

I'm telling you. Martian munchkins attack.

Great characters-- ramona and sergio.

I'm looking for my sergio.

Give us a read, just a quick read.

Line it up right--

"No, ramona. Don't give up hope."

Wow!

You might be my sergio.

Ok.

All right, I'll call you.

You might be my ramona.

I don't know about that, but all right.

Hey, hey, amanda bynes! I got a movie for you!

It's a wonderful movie.

It's called martian munchkins attack.

Would you want to do this movie?

Sure, you can talk to my people.

My people will talk to your people.

We'll do lunch,

And I loved you in that thing that you did.

That was wonderful.

Martians attack is going to be great.

Me, you-- we'll do a sequel.

Hey, frankie, baby. Hey.

It's a great movie.

It's called martian munchkins attack.

You'd be sergio.

Sergio is, like, the lead guy.

You feelin' it? You feelin' it?

As a matter of fact, let's go over a few of the lines.

I'll be ramona for a second.

"I can't believe the alien munchkins from mars

"Have stranded us on the desert island.

Aah! Curse the alien munchkins. Oh, no."

"No, ramona. Don't give up hope.

"I'm a secret ninja.

"Training has taught me everything.

"Just--there's always a way.

Don't give up, all right?"

Frankie, baby, that's great!

I'll use this kid.

Hey, wonderful relationship we're starting here.

All right.

Uh, who's directing?

Me.

Mmm. We'll see.

I'm a great director. I direct everything.

We'll see what happens.

Hey, frankie? Call me.

Frankie wasn't really feeling me as a director.

Maybe it's the threads,

So let's change it out a little bit.

Action!

You got to come up more.

More motivation. More motivation.

Great job, people, looking good.

I'm not believing you, though.

There you go.

Need a little more energy on the bicycle,

A little more energy.

Pedal a little faster. There we go.

You're delivering food. I like that.

I've been practicing my directing.

I see.

You feeling the director thing?

Mmm.

You're doing great.

Give me more. Give me more.

You.

I see it.

That do anything for you?

No.

Keep practicing.

But, frank...

No, no, that's all wrong. No, wait. More!

You can do it. Be bushy.

Come on, sway with me. Sway.

Go back to your roots. Go back to your roots.

Sway.

"No, ramona. Don't give up hope..."

Nick, voice-over: hey, yo, don't go nowhere,

'Cause you won't believe what I got up my sleeve.

"...in servitude."

Give me that.

On your knees, all of you.

I heard something. I heard...

[Imitates murphy's laugh] from out of that room...

Ed! My man! What's going on?

I'm nick cannon, and I'm taking over hollywood.

What's your advice to an aspiring, you know,

Young actor/filmmaker like myself to try

To get, like, a big-budget movie made?

What my advice is? Yeah.

Blaze your own trail.

Because, like, I went to one of these studios around here and, like,

Tried to take over the lot and they kind of kicked me off the lot and everything.

I was blazing my own trail. Yeah.

Like, I was pitching a movie about some martians, right? And some midgets.

I love it. You love it?

Yeah. Man, you would be great in it, too--

But would I be playing a martian or a m*dget?

Nah. See, you would be playing sergio.

I'm playing sergio?

You are sergio, 'cause the martians are midgets.

Oh...

You see that? m*dget martians.

Do I fight the martians or do i--

Yeah, you fight the martians and--

Like, look. Let me show you, man. Oh, you got a script.

I got a script with the martians.

See, look. Let me show you, man. Ok.

See, ramona is your lead.

We can get, like, halle berry or somebody will play ramona. And sergio--

"No, ramona, don't give up hope.

"If my secret ninja training has taught me anything,

"It's that there is always a way.

"And if my experience as a waiter has taught me anything,

"It's that people hate it when you drop their food,

And then pick it up off the ground and serve it to them."

Oh, that's oscar material.

That's oscar material, right? Right?

I'm gonna have my people call your people. Yeah.

We're gonna do that. Yo, psst! Eddie is gonna be sergio.

Martians attack. It's comin' at ya.

m*dget martians attack.

m*dget martians attack. Yeah.

Theaters near you.

Thank you, man. All right.

Go blaze that trail.

Man, we snuck in and it still wasn't worth it.

Martian munchkins attack is garbage.

Horrible.

I don't usually go to movies,

And this is why.

I thought the character of the martians were very subtle

In this movie and very emotionally developed,

And I found it a very interesting film.

This was a great date movie.

What do you think, sweetie? Great date movie, right?

Yeah, it was great.

So would I see any other movie?

No! This movie rocked, man!

I waited weeks in line for this movie.

I was right at the head of the line.

This jammed it, and before that,

Weeks for the trailer. That rocked, too, man!

It was great! [Sniffs] well, great!

We takin' over.
