Eli Roth proposes a movie about the best part of going to the movies, ads for movies

From darkhorizons, At the Saturn Awards last week, "Hostel" director Eli Roth revealed to Collider that he has a new dream project - "Trailer Trash" which will be made-up of 30 or so fake trailers (ala "Grindhouse").

"I'm going to be doing a film of all fake trailers, like Thanksgiving, called Trailer Trash. I want to make a movie like Borat or Jackass that's literally completely ridiculous, totally silly and absurd, that's just all fake trailers. I have a genius way to tie it all together so it will actually play like a movie" says Roth.

He adds "I want to do this with a budget because they have to look like movies. Literally I'll have the satisfaction because it will feel like I made 30 movies. That's the beauty of Trailer Trash - you just need good gags and good kills."Roth says that Edgar Wright, Greg Nicoatero and Robert Rodriguez are also all likely to contribute. Roth hopes to complete at least some of the work before he starts filming his adaptation of Stephen King's "Cell."

That idea is so genius I believe it was kicked around by us back in junior high school, when we were all geniuses.

No, I’m serious. I’m pretty sure that while discussing the coolness of previews back in the day, we would say “they should just make a movie of all previews.” And here we are. Just like some kid once said “they should make a city with water instead of roads” and so they made Venice.
