Hollywood megastar and snake-punching virtuoso Samuel L. Jackson plays the lead in a new ad from The Jewish Council for Education & Research (JCER), a liberal super-PAC. It is nearly four minutes long. It is unabashedly pro-Obama. It will be shown exclusively online. Oh, and it's titled, "Wake the Fuck Up."
Jackson, 63, narrates in a Seussian fashion (Whoville!), while paying homage to the audiobook he recorded for Adam Mansbach's children's book sendup Go the Fuck to Sleep. The clip consists primarily of the actor, clad in jeans and a black beret, magically appearing in houses and hurling obscenities and Democratic talking points at unsuspecting white suburbanites.
Now remember this is not an ad that is approved by the President, and it ONLY shows up online so it will not be beamed into the living rooms of voters.
In my opinion this will probably not appeal to everybody, but it will definitely be a big hit with Samuel L. Jackson fans among whom I count myself. (Though admittedly I cringed a little as the elderly couple started to "get busy.")
Well. *I* liked it, and I shared it on my FB page. So, THERE! :P
ReplyDeleteQuite well done, IMHO.
Me too!
DeleteOh but I can see BreitFart & Palin tomorrow...

.....And Hannity aka a$$face will have the other ass face on and then, POTUS will issue a statement:
"That was not approved by me"
And everyone will STFU!
Cleaned up version is below.

I love it....Sam is the man, I loved the one he did for the book go to sleep. It is the chant of the land...yell it loud and clear. How long have we been saying it...how can people not see the entire GOP party for what it is...they truly hate Americans.

I liked it. The 47% video spread like wildfire highly offending people personally or someone you know who are not welfare recipients and who even pay federal taxes.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading about Romney and his campaign that just would not put the wheels back on their bus despite the very public advice from party members.
IMO the debates will reinforce Mitt the flip flopper. He has an established pattern he can't stop so I expect more of the same which will hurt them more.
Good ad from the Obama campaign of various people who worked with him in MA while he was governor. It includes republicans!!

I have also read that he basically vanished and was away for about 220 days -- to run for president in the 2008 election. Another thing that sounds familiar --- hmmmm. He's so much like someone we know from AK. He basically 'quite' half way through his term!!!!
Oh, this is rich!

Get Out the Vote Goes Funny! I love it!
ReplyDeleteSeveral years ago, I worked with a bunch of black ladies in an office building downtown. And I gotta tell ya, those ladies LOVED them some Mr. Samuel L. Jackson! The things they said would have made him blush!!!
There's plenty of good looking guys, but some of them just have sumthin' the others don't have. Am I right, ladies? Whatever it is, Sam has it, according to those funny ladies I worked with. Every time I see him in a part, it makes me think of those girls and smile.
Cracklin Charlie...
DeleteI'll let you in on a little secret....it's his HAT! My hubby has several Kango's and he attempts to wear his forward like some old man...and I make him turn it around!
HeHe...he finally caught on when we were watching Samuel on David Letterman and he said..."Hey is that why you like me to wear my hat backwards?" LOL!!!
I love it! Sam is the man! I would love for him to make a video telling Sarah Palin to Shut the Fuck Up!!
ReplyDeleteMr. Jackson needs to do one called... STFU, Sarah
ReplyDeleteThe hype made this sound much worse than it turned out to be. Sam did a fine job! And I had a suspicioun that a cleaned up Celo Green type version would be released, and it has.
ReplyDeleteSamuel Jackson was fantastic in the original, and in this spoof.
Why did you cringe, MTF ? It's here and now for adults, juveniles and old ones. And it feels good!
