Usually we try not to post two viral videos in the same day, let alone back to back, but this latest one from CollegeHumor is too perfect and timely to pass up. As we’ve talked about before, M. Night Shyamalan has had it rough lately. The otherwise impressive trailer for Devil (which he produced) has seen groans and laughter around the nation when his name comes on the screen. As Rotten Tomatoes can attest, his movies seem to be getting worse and worse, yet he is completely oblivious. In the parody trailer after the jump, M. Night thinks something more devious is going on.

What I find ironic about Tyler Perry films, or at least the few I’ve actually seen, is that they are stereotypical, especially in their depiction of caucasians.

The guys from “How It Should Have Ended” are back, and this time they are taking on Christopher Nolan’s Inception. They focus mostly on the fact that everyone’s personal issues would screw with the dream, and it’s pretty funny. Let us know what you think in the comments, and watch the video below.

Nation, it’s no secret. I’m a huge fan of Stephen Colbert. So, naturally, when I heard about the possibility of a “Restoring Truthiness” rally, I had to do my part; and as a member of the liberal media, my role is to report news to you, the Colbert Nation.

Let’s get your first question out of the way. Yes, there will be a Piranha 3D sequel (Piranha 3D2?). Sure, the horror comedy has only made $20 million going into its third weekend in theaters, but that’s almost the film’s production cost, so the Weinstein Company must see potential for more of the same in a second flick. If that wasn’t enough, fans of the film will get to choose who gets killed in the sequel.
