The Seventh of my Re-enactment series.Holy balls, this one took a while to finish, mainly because of the size. It clocked in as a whole gig when I had it as an .AVI. This is the "Battle of Wits" scene from The Princess Bride. A mysterious man in black has been chasing three criminals who have kidnapped a princess. He has beaten a swordsman and a giant. Now all that's left is outsmarting the genius of the group, Vizzini, in a battle of wits.Here's a list of what I used, and what they were supposed to represent in the scene.My mask = a pair of boxers with holes cut in themMy moustache = a brown-colored toothpick scotch-taped to my faceWine = Iced teaWine bottle = a tupperware containerThe Princess (scene briefly on the right of the screen near the beginning) = a rocking horse with a red shirt on itFive minutes long... this is definitely the longest one. Enjoy. |  | Wallace Shawn reads Vito Russo

This is by no means of the same caliber as the other clips posted here... but Wally Shawn is hilarious, and this is something of a classic scene in terms of its basic lunacy. |  | Wallace Shawn Impression (Princess Bride)

DIR: Richard KellySCR: Richard KellyEXEC PROD: Oliver Hengst Katarina Hyde, Bill Johnson, Ernst August Schnieder, Jim Seibel, Judd PaynePROD: Bo Hyde, Sean McKittrick, Kendall Morgan, Matthew RhodesDP: Steven B. PosterED: Sam BauerPROD DES: Alec HammondMUS: MobyCAST: Dwayne Johnson, Seann William Scott, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Mandy Moore, Cheri Oteri, Will Sasso, Miranda Richardson, Kevin Smith, Wallace Shawn, Jason Lee, Janeanne Garofalo, Jon Lovitz, Amy Poehler, Tim Blake NelsonIn 1920, Robert Frost described two roads in a yellow wood. More than 85 years later, filmmaker Richard Kelly, director of the cult favorite DONNIE DARKO, takes the one less traveled. In one of the year's most anticipated films, Kelly takes us on a journey into a parallel reality. The year is 2008, the place is Los Angeles, and Boxer Santos (Dwayne Johnson), an action star, has married into the political world. (Sound familiar?) His budding relationship with porn star and business mogul Krysta Now leads to a screenplay that may or may not be an accurate prediction of the end of the world. And it only gets stranger from there. Kelly's vast, visionary story encompasses a new US security program that identifies all Internet activity by fingerprint, a new wireless energy system called Liquid Karma and radical neo-Marxists who seek to disrupt the power structures that loom above them. In addition to his ambitious story, Kelly has assembled --one of the most original and diverse casts in recent memory, with Sarah Michelle Gellar, Mandy Moore, Miranda Richardson, Jon Lovitz, Kevin Smith, Wallace Shawn and, as a cherry on top, Justin Timberlake (who lip-synchs from behind a scarred face).This most unexpected political satire is an incredibly funny and trenchant film, a wry commentary on the nature of identity and power in a celebrity culture. Ideas and images from this alternate, Orwellian near future come at us with a dizzying pace, offering a shiny corporate-sponsored vision of a future on the edge of apocalypse. So grab a can of Krysta Now, a couple of alternate fingerprints, and your ticket to the Mega-Zeppelin. The future is here and it's far more futuristic than you might expect. |  | shawn wallace performing yma sumac 06
