DFU SONG: Everyone's Gone to the Moon (send Hillary to the moon)

DFU SONG PARODIES | 12-03 | Lyrics, Doug from Upland

[doug from upland]

Rumors of a big announcement are in the air. It is expected that President Bush will announce we are going back to the moon. Mr. President, please take seriously this suggestion in musical form.
=========================================

MIDI - EVERYONE'S GONE TO THE MOON

Lunar adventure time is near...we'll stay the leader...that is clear
I hope it launches by mid June...send Hillary to the moon

She'll be forever...my first choice...I have grown weary...of her voice
It would be quite an afternoon...send Hillary to the moon

President Bush...give me a say
Please make the trip just one way

There could be danger in the void...she could meet Mr. Asteroid
Drinks are on me at your saloon...send Hillary to the moon...moon...moon
Send Hillary to the moon....moon...moon
Send Hillary to the moon

[Aracelis]

She'd be my first choice!

There was some HilLIARy gag in this turkey, which may help explain why it bombed so badly.

From some site called popcorn junkie ---

Before I left for the theater, I hit up IMDb for the show times of this movie, and right across from the listing for Pluto Nash, was Austin Powers. I couldn't help but see the likeness in those names. I hoped the movie would be original and entertaining. Afterall, Eddie Murphy, the man, was the main star! You couldn't go wrong, could you? Well, something during the production went terribly wrong. This movie may have been original-- I mean has their ever been a movie about a night club on the moon?-- but it was by no means entertaining.

Again, this movie takes place on the moon. About 80 years from now. 2080, where Hillary Clinton is on the 10,000 dollar bill, and space suits look even dorkier than they did in cheap sci-fi films that get laughed at on Mystery Science Theater 3000. That's right, I wanna know who the costume design was...Wait, why don't I go check IMDb right now? Be right back. Okay, I'm back. 5 minutes to me, but only one second to you. Shepherd Frankel is the Art Director. I couldn't find a costume designer. Perhaps this was the problem?

The movie is about this guy, Pluto Nash (Eddie Murphy), who bails out a friend (Jay Mohr) from a pickle and takes over his bar. He turns this crappy, filthy, ghost town of a bar, into a very popular night club and thus rids himself of all the debts he assumed when he helped out his friend. And what happens to people when they become successful? Other people want to buy them out, that's what! Meet Mogan (Joe Pantolino). He wants to buy Club Pluto for 10 million. Pluto says no deal. And you just know that this wouldn't be a movie if Mogan could take no for an answer!

This movie is not entirely unfunny, but for the most part, it's boring and stereotypical. Eddie Murphy has some great moments, one of them looking like a rip-off of the Nutty Professor, but still pretty funny. Randy Quaid and Jay Mohr also add some humor. Actually, Randy Quaid does the best comical job of them all. I mean, his role is critic proof! "What do you mean I looked lifeless and made out of cardboard?! I was playing a robot!"

Alas, those few funny moments aren't enough to save this picture. The movies only attempt at a heroine completely hits a brick wall and fails. Rosario, show some backbone! When your friend just gets attacked from behind, don't throw up your hands and look pitiful. Get you skinny self to his defense! So sexist....

Avoid this movie at all costs. Eddie, I love ya, but no sequels please!

Wonder how many remember that song by Jonathan King from I believe 1965? Last I heard, he was in prison on kiddie porn charges!! Kind of liked the song, though, even though the lyrics were a bit disjointed. I like yours better. Bet you remember the Nashville Teens and Hedgehoppers Anonymous, too.

[doug from upland]

Nope, I don't remember them.

In another case, singer, record producer and broadcaster Jonathan King was jailed for seven years in 2001 for sex attacks on five boys.

[speedy]

From the same era. Nashville Teens big hit was "Tobacco Road" and Hedgehoppers Anonymous was "Good News Week." Won't belabor it. Thanks again for your lyrics (I say as a former Uplander who misses Claro's Pasta.)

[doug from upland]

I have never been to Claros. Is it good?

[speedy]

Guess he won't be going to the moon anytime soon.

[speedy]

Oh yeah -- wonderful selection of pastas, cheeses, breads and all varieties of Italian deli food. It's in that little shopping center on the west side of Mountain Avenue above Foothill -- there's a Stater Brothers and a restaurant called Graziano's in there. And what I really miss is my In-N-Out Burger.

[doug from upland]

Of course. I've been there a few times. It's been awhile.

I had always hoped the Clintons would spend their remaining days together in a 6 x 9 cell on Alcatraz. It could have been a theme park destination to visit them and throw peanuts and insults at them. I would find the moon perfectly acceptable for Hillary. Just think, Hillary, the spacesuit would hide your wretched fat ankles.

I was just telling my son that I miss IN N OUT Burger! We moved back to Texas from Claremont, Calif just about one year ago. Loved living in Calif! (our 3rd time to do so)
