Moon Landings Faked? Filmmaker Says Not!

As a tribute to the 50th anniversary of its fake moon landing, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration has announced a reboot of the staged event that fooled billions worldwide, only this time featuring an all-female crew.
NASA officials confirm they will release a shot-for-shot remake of the meticulously concocted phony moon landing, originally filmed at an undisclosed soundstage 50 years ago this week. The rejuvenated hoax will follow in the footsteps of other recent all-female reboots like Ghostbusters and Ocean’s 8.
“Those were some great buddy films,” a NASA spokesperson told reporters, “but we made the ultimate buddy movie in 1969 when we tricked all those people with Neil, Buzz, and Mike. We thought a modernized update was the perfect way to mark the occasion.”
Rumors claim the part of Neil Armstrong will be played by Scarlett Johansson, with Melissa McCarthy acting in the role of Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin. The Michael Collins character will be portrayed by Dame Judi Dench.
According to sources, the only change in the script is a more inclusive update to Armstrong’s famous words when setting foot on the moon, which will be replaced with the line “That’s one small step for a woman, one giant leap for womankind, mankind, transgenderkind, genderfluidkind, and otherkin.”

Next do transgendered midgets riding unicorns.
Wasn’t there some satirical drive-in type movie in the 60s about women in fur bikinis on the Moon or else arriving here in a flying saucer? I only base this on the preview——even I am not so low as to go to see it. Really vague memory now. Maybe it’ll show up on Masterpiece theatre.
I’ll betcha the place smells nicer.
Judi Dench would make a much better Von Braun.
Collins could be Emily Blunt.
If the females were selected because they were the best qualified for that moment, it is great. However, it was an all-female team just to make a statement, then I am very unhappy. Do I make myself clear??
as a bell.
and not too many people on FR would argue with you...
LOL!
Hilarious!!!
Thank you!
