IMDB Hijinks
Director Adam McKay (Anchorman, Talladega Nights), Paul Scheer, and a couple other Funny or Die members have started a retroactive buzz campaign for the 1993 action-comedy sequel Another Stakeout on the IMDB message boards, because they can. Says McKay, about the “completely forgettable so-so sequel,” starring Emilio Estevez, Richard Dryfuss, and Rosie O’Donnell:
Come join us and help us turn this movie into a giant cult hit for absolutely no good reason. Register and vote 10/10 for the movie. Get into heated trivia arguments about the movie. Quote lines, question other Stakeout heads’ commitment to the movie. Let’s forward this e-mail and flood the site to the point where there are Another Stakeout festivals and conventions and midnight showings with people in costume saying lines along with the movie ala Rocky Horror Pic Show. And remember, we are Another Stakeout fans. Not Stakeout fans. The first one was pretty good but like the Godfather 2 (or is the Godfather 2 like Another Stakeout?) director John Badham got it right the second time around. AS 2 forever!! [via Best Week Ever]
