A Swede contest
Good news for people who live in the UK or the Republic of Ireland! You guys can enter a Be Kind Rewind contest by uploading your own sweded movies. Bad news for, well, anyone who doesn't live on those particular islands. I have a feeling that won't stop people from uploading their non-cockney versions. Or, maybe they'll open up a U.S. contest. It's possible, since the site Jack Black mentions in his contest invitation doesn't exist (bekindrewindyourmovie, he says, though it's actually youtube.com/bekindrewind). But that doesn't mean it couldn't pop up sometime in the near future, hmm? I'll keep you posted.
Here's one of the contest submissions, Goldfinger:
DAN SCAPUSIO joined the Sun Sentinel's online team in 2008. A self described Internet enthusiast, he says the World Wide Web brings him joy, sadness, excitement, joy and a deep sense of terror all at once. For him, it's a crossroads where college humor and the most valuable scholarly information can be found and, in some cases, even melded.
