I Am a Genius of Unspeakable Evil and I Want to Be Your Class President: The Movie

By Rodney - March 25, 2008 - 18:31 America/Montreal

Just when you were about to write another entry in your myspace about how Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is a long winded and contrived title, we find out that another unreleased book is already being picked up to be a movie and the title is far longer. I Am a Genius of Unspeakable Evil and I Want to Be Your Class President.


Warner Bros. has snatched up the film rights to a book proposal by writer Josh Lieb (The Daily Show, a Deuce Bigelow) entitled I Am a Genius of Unspeakable Evil and I Want to Be Your Class President. On board to produce is McG via his production company Wonderland Sound and Vision.

The plot will revolve around a 7th grader who secretly has more money than Oprah, but wants to win the middle school class presidency to impress his daddy.

This sounds like it will be a typical sunday afternoon feelgood movie with a nice story about how you shouldn’t have to TRY to win your father’s love. Money can’t buy you happiness, and this sad little jerk of a 7th grader is about to find out there are more important things in life.

All they need is Tim Allen to play the loveable emotionally detached dad, and I am in. That might have sounded sarcastic, but I am serious.

I have a weak spot for Tim Allen moral lesson driven feelgood movies. It’s true.

    Well, seeing as how the title spells everything out for me since I’m so fucking stupid, then I guess there’s no need for me to pay to see what happens in this movie! Kid’s evil, he wants to be prez to impress daddy, he makes friends and enemies, learns a life lesson, fingers a girl in the cafeteria at lunchtime, daddy realizes he loves him and bursts into the school JUST IN TIME to celebrate with his son! Check back here when the movie opens, and I guarantee you it will play out just like this. I’m Nostradamus, bitch.

    I wasn’t that impressed by the trailer from the very beginning but I still have faith in Spielberg to make this an enjoyable film. Nothing mindblowing but solid and entertaining. That’s all I ask for.

    So much for Indy 4 being the highest grossing film of 2008…yeah, right!

  7. Wade says:

    Damn…wrong article. Sorry.

  8. The title alone is genius.
