So much anticipation is riding on Christopher Nolan’s next Batman flick that may cause so much overhype that it may suck. Spider-man 3 anybody?

One of my most favorite movies ever to watch over and over again would have to be (500) Days of Summer. Recently, I have come to appreciate and love, the somewhat of a sleeper hit, but more under-appreciated NBC comedy, Community. If you put them both together you come up with an awesome little parody trailer for a fictional movie (500) Days of Britta. If you are unfamiliar with the movie (500) Days of Summer or Community, well, YOU BETTER GET ON IT! But in all seriousness folks, (500) Days of Summer is a great movie about love and loss between a couple and Community has a pair of interestingly fun characters who always have some sort of sexual tension, especially in the first season, Jeff and Britta. After the jump catch the great fan made trailer by YouTube user, sweetevangeline!
Boston is its own little culture in film. You can distinctly figure out if a character is from Boston within the first moment they open their mouth and the foul language and their thick accent starts pouring out. Let’s not be stereotypical here, there is more to Bostonians than just a few F-bombs and the mispronunciation of the letter ‘R’. Who are we kidding? In most Boston related movies the citizens are portrayed as their stereotypes to their full extent. The people at ScreenJunkies have created a hilarious representational video of this culture and you can view all the fahkin’ goodness after the break! Don’t forget to pahk the cah!
