Title: Reader Review Styles
Post by: clockworkcanary on March 06, 2008, 01:47:20 PM
I had an idea on one of my upcoming reviews to review it in a specific style, either an action movie reviewed/recapped as a meta-thought D&D game (Road House 2 for example) or from a specific personality (like, Megatron reviewing a game show) or the Ultimate Warrior's perspective of the latest Democratic Debate or something equally silly.  How about a Freudian perspective of the Phantom Menace?  These are just random examples I thought of but I think they could really livin up a review.  I guess I got the idea from reading a "wrestling perspective" reader review of Transformers the Movie (80s anime) and it was damned funny.

I do want to try reviewing an action flick as if it were according to Dungeons and Dragons dice rolls though - I think that would be pretty entertaining. 

Anyway, does anyone have any suggestions on what action movie to choose for the D&D perspective?  How about suggestions for other perspectives?  Input is welcome!

I suggest an old acting technique known as "playing the opposites" -- That is, do your movie review from the point of view of D & D dice rolls or some action hero, but don't review an action movie:  Review instead a romantic comedy, or some such.  I've seen this technique used to some hilarity in the past --

For a later review could you do one as Groucho Marx?
