Farce of the Penguins Pushed Back to January

I have to say I was never quite enticed to watch March of the Penguins. It seemed a little TOO National Geographic to me. I know that was the point, and I know a lot of people liked it. I just couldnt muster the attention span to watch it. But THIS I might watch!

SlashFilm.com reports:

Bob Saget’s spoof of the popular documentary March of the Penguins will now be headed straight to DVD.

Farce of the Penguins was originally scheduled to be rushed into theaters to quickly parody the original March, but the movie fell behind schedule and will now hit store shelves on January 30th 2007.

The film is a very adult-oriented live-action comedy which features shots of penguins overlaid with voiceovers from Jason Alexander, Dane Cook, Christina Applegate, James Belushi, Jason Biggs, Lewis Black, Whoopi Goldberg, Gilbert Gottfried, Alyson Hannigan, Jamie Kennedy, Jon Lovitz, Norm McDonald, John Stamos, and Penn Jillette. Samuel Jackson offers narration, parodying Morgan Freeman’s original track from March.

And for the love of God, its got BOB SAGET as the director!!

We talked about this a while back and I share every bit of enthusiasm now as John did when it was first posted. Bob Saget has a WICKED sense of humour and the cast he has backing him up on this just guarantees some laughs.

The only thing bad about this movie is that we wont be able to get it until January. Would have made a great stocking stuffer for my Grandma. She loves old reruns of America’s Funniest Home Videos.
