No, wait, wait, just listen

So my mom and me saw Date Night on Saturday - possibly the funniest movie I've ever seen. I laughed so hard my voice was hoarse and my stomach hurt. Those two should always be in movies together. ANYWAY, you know shirtless Mark Wahlberg was a highlight, even with his weird hair, and it totally got me hankering for a Bill Beckett/Mark Wahlberg fic - I have no idea why! It just HAPPENED! So check this:

For some reason, Bill ends up having a part in a movie! He has no idea what he's doing! But he's, like, I'll try anything once, and there are strings pulled and things happen and call-backs or whatever, and suddenly he finds himself cast as a college student in a cops & robbers movie called The Ride Along. He gets to grow a mustache, because his character, see, is a criminal justice major who's riding along on cop beats - traffic mainly - and he's in the back seat of two cops (like Kevin James and Sean Murray) and, um, I don't know, they get out for some reason, and Bill's still locked in the back when the cop car is hijacked! by Mos Def and Mark Wahlberg!! Thieves of some sort!! and what happens is an epic road trip/chase ala Smokey and the Bandit/Tommy Boy/Men at Work - there is singing of The Rainbow Connection at some point. It's a comedy! And I put entirely too much thought into this fake movie instead of Bill's epic and inappropriate crush on Mark Wahlberg and how he handles working with him.

I can't stop sneezing.

That is all.

I feel like if anyone can do this, it's probably you.

(And, NGL, I would totes read it! :D)

[skoosiepants.livejournal.com]

hahaha, I spent so much time thinking up the movie, I kind of want to write that.

I read that as "Mark Wahlberg's handles" and I approve.

[skoosiepants.livejournal.com]

heh :)

[skoosiepants.livejournal.com]

oh, that would be AMAZING

[clumsygyrl.livejournal.com]

[skoosiepants.livejournal.com]

[seratonation.livejournal.com]

[skoosiepants.livejournal.com]

It's so random!

[dwintersni.livejournal.com]

I don't even know...Okay. So I was reading the flist about an hour ago, got a phone call, blah blah blah, and I came back to read this.

I THOUGHT THIS WAS REAL LIFE. I was like, I WANT TO SEE THIS MOVIE OMG. And then I got to the fake movie part and wanted to cry.

And now it's just not on. *sad face*

[skoosiepants.livejournal.com]

It SHOULD be a real movie! Hollywood should call me.

[dwintersni.livejournal.com]

I wish I had connections! This was so cool. But if I can't watch it, I'd read it. Oh yeah.

[seratonation.livejournal.com]

MOS DEF!!!!!

the cops got out to get donuts, duh :P they asked if he wanted anything but the whole ride was boring and he just wants to go hoooome...

wait, thats part of the movie right? damn, wouldve been a cool movie :D

[skoosiepants.livejournal.com]

it would be an awesome movie! Mos Def and Wahlberg would make fun of Bill's mustache and even when they ditched the cop car they would keep Bill as a hostage and Bill's character thinks it's the coolest thing EVER to happen to him!

I do not know this Bill Becket person *googles* um, yeah I still don't know. But the The Ride Along should totally be a movie.

[skoosiepants.livejournal.com]

Bill Beckett is the lead singer for The Academy Is...! he's tall and skinny and lovely and has amazing cheekbones.

I really think Holywood should take me up on this movie, it'd be better than all the remakes they're churning out!

Bill Beckett is the lead singer for The Academy Is...! he's tall and skinny and lovely and has amazing cheekbones. Oh, yeah I did find out that much from my search but I have no idea who that band?group? is so that pretty much put me back at ? I mean some of the other bands I've at least heard, though I suppose those are probably considered old school now *g*.
