#1540; The Studio Executioners

Comic Transcripts

[[A man in a bowler hat, GRIMSWORTH, holds a newspaper as he addresses PLUMBERT, who is working on a machine for making milkshakes in race cars.]]

GRIMSWORTH: Did you SEE this? What a FARCE!
PLUMBERT: That describes SO many things that I could not POSSIBLY respond to your question with certainty

GRIMSWORTH: They’re SHELVING the Headstabbers reboot movie.
PLUMBERT: Headstabbers: Re-Beheaded? REALLY?!
GRIMSWORTH: The studio’s gonna take the writeoff instead!
PLUMBERT: That’s an OUTRAGE!
GRIMSWORTH: It’s worth more DEAD than alive! Like Archduke Bonesmash in the LAST movie!

PLUMBERT: I can’t believe they’re going to just TRASH the hard work of all those actors, artists, creative people on the crew… It’s basically BOOK BURNING.
GRIMSWORTH: It’s a MORAL WRONG to just DISCARD all that blood, sweat, and tears. The folks on the inside have an ETHICAL IMPERATIVE to LEAK the movie. I pray someone has the courage.

[[A woman, CLEMBERTA, joins them at the workbench, holding another newspaper.]]

CLEMBERTA: They’re ALSO shelving the Rob Schneider/Kevin Sorbo dramedy about “What If Moses Was Reincarnated in Postwar Ohio and Played Minor League Baseball”
CLEMBERTA: That’s both the premise AND the actual title
CLEMBERTA: Those artists ALSO worked hard! Let THEIR work be seen! This must ALSO be leaked!!
PLUMBERT: I mean that one can probably stay right where it is
