Check out these leaked script pages and temp poster art for PIMPS AT SEA... Too late!

Published at:  Apr 02, 2007 6:15:51 AM CDT

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with a fellow seaman "Long John Silver Spoon" who got the scoop on a new flick in development called PIMPS AT SEA, a comedy (at least one would hope) that is taking advantage of the huge success of PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN.

LJSS says this isn't a spoof of PIRATES, but rather a flat-out funny take on the genre. Sounds like an extended Chappelle Show sketch, but if they really put some budget behind this it'll be an extremely bizarre flick, a decent budgeted pimp and pirate movie? Count me in.

LGSS, who works closely with the production, sent in a few script scans and a rough temp of the poster, taken with his cell phone camera within the office. It's obvious it's a temp poster (if you look closely at the names, you can see they're just filler), but it's a fun design. Enjoy!




IMAGES REMOVED AT THE REQUEST OF JERRY BRUCKHEIMER FILMS... SORRY!!!

    Sad...Bungie does this almost every year

    by sublimefn87

    Bungie has been "annoucing" Pimps At Sea since the 90s. Every piece of "news" that comes out about this project has always, and will always be a joke.

    This Would Have Been Funnier

    by the funketeer

    if you had gotten this up at the same time Bungie posted theirs. Instead they linked to this page before it existed and you lost a lot of traffic from their site. Still, I always enjoy a good Bungie April Fools Pimps at Sea story. If they'd made the credits on the poster a little more realistic they might have even fooled a few more people.

    by cdubbs727

    Seriously, I can't believe Quint got fooled again. The notes on the "script pages" are so obviously a joke..."check language on poop deck"? It reminds me of when he was excited about getting the pages to the new Simpsons script that was obviously a joke from another site.

    Is that like an ass hat? Or a hat for asses? There is no 'e' to spell 'hate' properly, so it can't be that... I guess I wasn't born with enough of the ignorant idiot gene to understand the language of dumbass. So thankful this is an April Fools joke...or is it...duh-DUM-dummmmmm!

    Quint, why would you say a Chappelle skit?

    by thelivingdoll

    It seems like you've seen the Mind of Mencia version of this but don't want to admit it. I mean, Chappelle never did any skit remotely like this where Mencia did THIS EXACT THING. I realize people laugh off Mencia as a poor man's Chappelle but either you should give Mencia a mention, or not pretend to confuse it with The Chappelle Show.

    by docpazuzu

    ...I hadn't heard of this ongoing gag by Bungie before, but I figured it out just be seeing the coffee stains on the script, even before reading the notes in the margin. It's a groaner, to be sure, but nowhere near as cringeworthy or flabbergasting as seeing a few choice morons even dumber than the Cumpston indignoids posting in this talkback. Holy shit, some of you are too stupid to be bipedal.
