With Jackass already enjoying its third round of success and no sign of them slowing down, is it any surprise that a copycat franchise is in the works?
Epic Fail The Movie promises to deliver a new film to theaters that will have 3 hours of embarassing and shocking video clips that have become known as “epic fails” online.
Epic FAIL The Movie is coming to theatres in summer, 2012 with 100% original, unpublished FAILS… and it’ll be 3 Hours long.
Three hours of video “fail” content that hasn’t already circulated the YouTube/Failblog circuit? To test your endurance, they have compiled a three hour video called the 3 Hour Fail with many clips you have already seen online. The trailer for the 3 Hour Fail is here:
It is funny that I referred to the Jackass franchise as nothing more than elaborate youtube videos of people getting punched in the crotch, and thanks to the alarming success of Jackass, we are getting a rapid succession of youtube videos of people getting punched in the crotch.
I dont consider these “movies” or even “an experience”. I am not denying their entertainment value for some but aside from being chemically enhanced, I find little amusement with these films. I can only appreciate these gags in small doses. Someone spams a “neat video” of someone riding their bike off the roof of a house into a pool and people getting punted in the groin and I smile or cringe or offer whatever other appropriate reaction. But 3 hours of it?
I don’t think I would have that much tolerance for that.
Would you sit through 3 hours of this stuff? I might find about 10-15 minutes entertaining.
