IMad About the Movies Directors' Cut'
MAD About the Movies: Director’s Cut features more than sixty zany parodies of classic (and not-so-classic) movies first featured in MAD Magazine and rendered in full graphic glory by The Usual Gang of Idiots. Covering nearly seventy years of movie history, these classic spoofs show that there’s no film so sacred that it can’t be treated irreverently, no movie star so famous that he or she can’t be made fun of, and no script so dramatic that it can’t be twisted to show its amusing side. Some of the best-loved films of all time get their comic comeuppance here, among them: Gone with the Wind / Bonnie and Clyde/A Clockwork Orange/ Brokeback Mountain/Spider-Man / Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone/The Lord of the Rings (all three films!)
The book is another exclusive with Barnes and Noble’s own publishing division. So B&N is the only place you’ll be able to get a copy. But it’s one heck of a deal at $9.98! The book is about 200 pages thick. I wrote 88 of them. (Residuals? Yeah, right. Forget it!) Hmm, maybe that’s why it’s so inexpensive! http://tinyurl.com/5h8d6z Daily Giz Wiz Help Websites you should know about!

Hi Dick and Leo, I forgot to mention on my last e-mail that our friend Ludwik helped me to download ALL the 677 podcasts. He told me to use Mozilla Firefox with the DownThemAll! add-on installed. Then he proceeded to make a web page just for me with the links of ALL the DGW podcasts and it automatically updates itself when new episodes come out. Check out his DGW list site at
I wrote about eight of the movie satires in this book.
