My name's not 'Richard,' it's DICK!!!
Sep. 26th, 2010 04:04 pmFound via Roger Ebert's blog, The Rules of Attraction actors Kip Pardue and James Van Der Beek* beautifully parody Brett Easton Ellis:
Perhaps I only find it as funny as I do because I love The Rules of Attraction, a film which many people hate. But even those who do hate it all seem to agree that the one worthwhile part of the film was this scene, which the above video parodies and works well as a stand-alone piece. I think it's a stellar look at the blackly hilarious high-energy vapidness of Ellis' world.
That said, the first YouTube comment for the video reads "I'm so fucking doing ALL OF THIS when I get the money." I'm can't help but think they're missing the point a li'l bit.
*For all the crap he gets, I thought he was a fantastic force of nature in Rules, definitely worthy of being Patrick Bateman's brother.
