Ok seriously...
Here's my idea.
A practical explination of types of gov't.
I saw a poster once that i thought was hilarious. It had a headline for each type of government (socialist, capitalist, fascist, etc.) with a drawing under each and a short description.
What I want to do is an animated interpretation in a funny, truthful, thus inevitably dark explanation of government.
One man will be the "average citizen" and he will stay on screen. Different gov'ts will be represented by the leaders of certain types of countries approaching him and interacting with him.
As an example, the last part will be a man in uniform approaching the citizen and saying
"knock knock"
"who's there?"
"fascism"
"fascism wh-"
BANG!!! (the leader shoots him for asking questions)
So that's what I have so far. Please give your ideas.

I love this idea. Dark humor is my faaavorite! Have you seen the Robot Chicken short that has Little Hitler in it? It's like, Hitler as a little kid, and he's in a classroom with other countries (who are depicted as little kids as well). It's pretty hilarious and somewhat related to your idea. :D

That sounds really interesting. I like the fact that the humor is satirical, and not just your typical slapstick. Are all of the parties going to be represented in knock-knock jokes?
ReplyDeleteNot sure yet. probably not. I don't want the pace to be too repetative.
