it’s official: i am at least as funny as andy samberg

that is of course a complete exaggeration.  andy samberg is hilarious.  that said, this video from the mtv video awards last night is essentially an idea i came up with a few months ago after watching the wolverine workprint and lamenting the cliche’ of action heroes walking away from explosions.

just this past friday, i was discussing the concept of a fake trailer called “guy who doesn’t realize that crazy shit is happening behind him” with some friends as we were sketching out our wrath of khan parody video.  ours even had a scene where the action hero is getting his hearing checked while terrorists are attacking directly behind him.  ours did not have a song.

still, damn you samberg!
