Hlao-roo 389 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Charles Rossman does a pretty good job with that soft, professorial Williams tenor. Around the time of Jaws, I think you could hear a little more Queens in there than what Rossman gives us, but not bad at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,346 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Huh. I wanted to like it but I don't think I laughed once Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Andrade 1,263 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Same here. I'm sure it's funny, just not my kind of funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Once 605 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 The impression was quite good, but I didn't really find it funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,251 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 His black socks and shoes always being on, the Star Wars bit, his breakdown, the piñata scene... all made me laugh. Steven submitting to his "genius." Bobbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 7,492 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Yeah, the likeness in the voice and in the vocabulary was about the only thing I found funny in that clip. Surely, there must be more clever ways to do a Williams spoof? Bobbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KK 3,307 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 It wasn't incredibly funny, but the impersonation was so spot on that I had some good laughs. Bobbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbellamy 6,278 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 "Truthening"It's funny 'cos it's true! Haha I was so waiting for him to say "if you like" after that, though. I guess if "if I can create a word" is close enough I can see why some wouldn't get any real LOLs from this, but the attention to detail is pretty great. Not just the Williams impression, but also the general 70s period stuff and BBC documentary style. Spot on. Probably could have found a better Spielberg, though.

Bobbo 1 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Thanks for liking that. I wrote it. In true Hollywood fashion it was taken from me and my name removed (even though I’m in it and did the music- not bitter). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,346 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 So 8 years later you were just idly googling your old work and found our forum? Bobbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobbo 1 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 I was trying to find the video to share with a friend and found your forum. this was supposed to be the first of a few “great moments in music” series they were going to do. I had two other scripts written. I’m still friends with the folks that made it and yes, my bitterness at the time has definitely faded. Now I’m just happy it got made at all. Still wish the last lines were different. bondo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
