This is the second of five reenactments I did for Jimmy Kimmel Live earlier this year. It was part of a challenge to reenact a scene from every Best Picture nominee for this year's Academy Awards.
This version has an extra 30 seconds of footage that wasn't shown on TV due to time constraints.
Fun fact: I hated this movie.

WARNING: STRONG LANGUAGE
The 23rd of my Re-Enactment Series.
A few things:
1. No, I did not lip sync, I simply added reverb to the dialogue. The audio is a bit off thanks to the video being compressed onto Youtube. I wouldnt go Milli Vanilli on you.
2. Yes, I know I failed to put in the Sir-yes-sirs in the beginning, simply because I didnt feel like waiting an extra hour to re-do that an export it for a fifth time. Use your imagination.
In this scene from Stanley Kubricks Full Metal Jacket, new recruits for Vietnam are being lectured on their first day by Gunnery Sgt. Hartman, played by former real-life drill instructor R. Lee Ermey.
Its kind of a shame... the first 45 minutes of this film is amazing. The scenes that actually take place in Vietnam kind of drag. Still, Kubrick was awesome.
Good choice, guys. This is an awesome scene... ugh. The Reservoir Dogs one is even longer... you guys are making me work.")

Number fo. Fer sho.
In this scene from Fight Club, Brad Pitts character proves a point to Edward Norton by threatening an asian clerk behind a convenience store.
Honestly, I think this films both underrated and overrated at the same time. On one hand, I feel sorry for David Fincher as this film didnt get the recognition it deserved until the DVD sales; the film didnt do well in theaters at all... on the other hand, EVERY SINGLE film student I ever talk to tells me how much they LOVE this movie and how amazing it is. On a technical aspect, its amazing. The writing is superb. As the flow of film goes, the second half kind of suffers, and the end hardly resolves anything. I dont know, this film is just a little pet peeve of mine. Yes, its a good movie, but come on you film people, its not a godsend by any means. Stop writing I am Jacks broken heart on your Myspace and broaden your horizons a bit.
That being said...
Sorry it took so long. I tried it like three times, and I couldnt get it right.
Enjoy.")
