Tufts University’s notorious group of Film Bros have been gathering in the basement of Barnum Hall to call upon the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and summon secret access to inside information about the film. What they found is, indeed, a real elephant in the room.
The film will center on Daddy Tony Monaco and his retirement from the Presidency. In his retirement, he finds himself finding a new passion in movie critiquing, making him the titular “Movie Critic.” Only the cinema he seeks to critique has been created by a bunch of Film and Media Studies students on the Tisch library roof entitled “The Roof.”
The Film Bros have also discovered stars such as Tommy Wiseau, famously the director, screenwriter, producer, and star of “The Room” (2003), Brad Pitt, Timothée Chalamet, and Uma Thurman are set to star. Pitt will play Monaco, taking on a silver fox style.
Tommy Wiseau and
Timothée Chalamet are set to star as the Film and Media Studies students Monaco encounters. Hugh Jackman is also said to reprise his role as P. T. Barnum in the origin story of Jumbo.
“I just cannot wait to see the emotional story Tarantino is going to depict,” one Film Bro said to the Daily.
Quentin Tarantino is said to have a secret emotional connection to Tufts University, claiming that the Film Bro culture has cultivated a fan base for his filmmaking large enough to sustain his ego to the point where he no longer has to release any other movies after this next one.
“I mean, have you seen ‘Pulp Fiction?’”
Bud Apatow, a Film student, said. “It’s just life-changing, the scene in the diner with Samuel L. Jackson and the briefcase, pure genius. The dialogue is full of subtext, and you have to know a lot about the film to truly understand it. It only took me one watch to get the entire thing.”
Pitt has already been in talks with the press about preparing for such a role. According to sources, he has begun living in the Gifford House in secret to truly embody the role of Monaco. Rumor has it that Pitt has refused to break character even at dinner parties hosted inside the house.
“Yeah, I went to eat dinner with Monaco the other night, and it was just Brad Pitt,” one source said. “He wouldn’t give up the act; he just kept being like, ‘I am so happy about how much money we’ve raised this year,’ or ‘Hodgdon will hopefully be up and running again soon.’”
