Wow, Asylum really brought their A-game into this. Either that, or they got someone really good at assembling clips for a trailer.

Mockbuster companies are kind of funny. Asylum obviously does it jokingly, so it's all in good fun. Video Brinquedo, on the other hand, does it completely seriously, with no hint of tongue-in-cheek at all--they're there to bask in the shadows of other movies. (Is Video Brinquedo still in business? None of the recent mockbusters for children's movies I see at Wal•Mart have its name on there.)

Asylum's best film will always be Mega Piranha Laughing



This one looks like it could be entertaining.

I would love to see Toho team up with Studio Wit to make a Godzilla vs. Colossal Titan movie or special.

SPOILER: The Colossal Titan-- I mean, "Kolossus" is eliminated when an Arleigh Burke launches a Tomahawk into the back of its neck.

How much do you want to bet that there will be at least one character named Yeager or Ackerman in the cast?

Well, their username isn't FunGuySempai! Laughing

As for this, looks stupid...and fun! I wonder if they'll reveal a pilot for the Kolossus? Yeah, that's about as far as I got into the AoT anime...

Usually they just wait for another live-action fairytale movie, so they can do their own--As long as it's something mythological that predates copyright! Razz
The "game" started after they officially got their hinder dragged to court for "American Battleship".

(Although they did get burned on "Age of the Hobbits", when they discovered that "Hobbit" was not a commonly accepted scientific term for midget Philippine cavemen...
I actually watched part of that on Netflix; dear gods, their dino/lizard CGI had some of the most awful unconvincing movement I've seen. If their CGI studio is the reason they're making the actual content of the movies, I hate to be the one to break it to them.)

The "funny" part is when they mockbust a movie just because we're talking about it, whether it becomes a hit or not, as it's become a pride issue for them that there can't be any trend out there that they're not "on". Vis Titan.

Yeah, I usually avoid Asylum films, but this is so absurd that i might just check it out to see how it's used.

Haha what, since when did The Asylum care about anime? But anyway, that trailer looks stupidly fun, that satelight and the moon at the end Laughing They really jumps the shark with this one eh.

I never care much for Asylum's stuff but might give this one a watch. Not gonna be surprised if this takes place in the future of AoT.

Colossal Titan? Looks more like a skull-faced BIONICLE to me =)

According to Wikipedia Video Brinquedo went out of business in 2010

Make the Colossal Titan have his own Godzilla-type movie.
