So let's have ourselves a...

.... SCI-FI/FANTASY PARODY CONTEST !

Entries must be parodies based on themes drawn from either books or television shows or motion pictures from the genres of fantasy-fiction and/or science-fiction.

TV news programs do NOT qualify as "television shows" for the purposes of this contest.

Documentaries that you personally consider to be "fantasy" or "sci-fi" in nature, and about which you have written a parody that obviously treats them as such, will be acceptable...we shall let the voters decide!

You are permitted to enter a parody that you previously entered in one or more other contest(s), if you wish.

It's okay if your entry happens to be about a children's fable or nursery story or Mother Goose tale, they all qualify as fantasy fiction.

OOOH - I like this.  You know, you are a very imaginative fellow, JD.  I like these new contest concepts that you have come up with lately.

pr

This one I really like and will enter.  Thanks for thinking of it, Johnny.

Paul and Pat, I'm very happy that you like the concept for this contest! 

Yes, please, by all means, enter!  EVERYBODY, please, enter!  :)

I guess I'm becoming one of what I hope will eventually be many self-appointed coordinators of "Amiright Specialty-Theme Parody Contests".

Claude coordinates the Song Of The Month Contests, various volunteers take turns coordinating the ABC Contests, so why not have ol' Johnny D coordinate some specialty-theme contests, just for fun?  ;D

That would require me to actually choose a favorite LOTR parody, Mister!

How in the hell am I supposed to do that?  ;)

Johnny, would you clear something up?  Is it alright to enter previously entered parodies in ABC contests here also, i.e. I entered Green Men Will Grab Ya in 'G'; could I enter it here also?

Entries must be parodies based on themes drawn from either books or television shows or motion pictures from the genres of fantasy-fiction and/or science-fiction

How 'bout one about WMD's and the Iraq War? Wouldn't that be considered "fantasy-fiction and/or science fiction"?

Heh heh.

Play scissors, paper, and stone (or three other items of your own romantic/erotic devising) with an imaginary Aragorn.   ;)

Yes, Pat, it is OK for an entry to have been previously entered in any other contest.  I shall add this clarification to the official rules.

Well... it has to be based on a book and/or TV show and/or motion picture... I shall add a clarification that TV news does NOT qualify as a TV show.

But... if somebody truly believes that, for example, Michael Moore's motion picture "Fahrenheit 911" is "fantasy" or "sci-fi", well, then, who am I to say they can't submit a parody based on that?  Heh heh heh...I guess we'd let the voters decide!

Johnny D ;D

Do the three little pigs and little red riding hood count as fantasy?

science fiction or science fact?????

Do the three little pigs and little red riding hood count as fantasy?


Well, they're fantasy characters in children's fantasy stories found in children's books.... I shall allow it!  :)

science fiction or science fact?????

http://www.amiright.com/parody/90s/bobdylan0.shtml


Hmmm...electronically-enhanced psyops mind-control is not science fiction, it's science fact that sometimes gets blown out of proportion in the media & exaggerated by people who aren't quite fully in-touch with the facts...I don't think this qualifies...do you have a different parody that fits the fiction/fantasy guideline more closely, Martha?  If you don't, then I'll stretch the rules and allow this one in.

Hi

this is the only one that I have that comes  even vaguely within the category of science fact or fiction!

"She's Always A Woman To Me" Based on the performance by Billy Joel
"She's One Special Hewmon You See"

http://www.amiright.com/parody/70s/billyjoel120.shtml

Star Trek Deep Space Nine parody on Ferengi and the practice of oomox. 

A parody about the X-Files...

a midi is at the top of the parody

Okay then, I'll allow it.

Wait a minute, Johnny - Do you mean to tell me those stories weren't real?  Well, Gawd-dammit, my parents freaking WERE lying to me...

Well, I suppose a metaphysical philosopher might argue that they ARE real on the "astral plane".  But I don't think they ever had boarding passes for the physical plane.  ;D

I'm not going to win this one, because there are so many worthy contenders that I have read here (as well as many bad ones who shall not be named). But I will nominate my biggest contender in this category, enjoy all...

(original lyric of "Mrs. Potter's Lullabye" :http://www.spynets.net/lyrics_details.php?ID=8707

"Eaten By The Wolf" parody of "Hungry Like The Wolf" by Duran Duran

"Gollum's Rhapsody"

This is plain unfair... I've got too many I want to enter: couldn't you split it so that there's a LOTR competition, a Star Wars competition, etc.?

Although I was tempted to enter The Little Dumber Droid, which is nearly as cute as my last amiright submission, given that it's a generic sci-fi competition I'm going to go with my SOTR (Lord Wars) crossover parody:

Dad, Peregrin (to 'Bad Medicine' by Bon Jovi)

Ignoring my 455,192 parodies regarding the subject of 'sexual fantasy', I was left with:

http://www.amiright.com/parody/2000s/eminem171.shtml

I believe that this qualifies for the 'fantasy' genre as it parodies the Harry Potter BOOK (not the biographical film of which the fictional novel was based... before the film was released...)

I have one...cool!  ;D

http://www.amiright.com/parody/90s/alanismorrisette6.shtml

Hmm... It's a toss-up between my version of 'YODA'http://www.amiright.com/parody/2000s/outkast36.shtml and 'Sam's Oddity'. And I can always plug 'Yoda' once here and once in the 'Y' abc's coming up.

So 'Sam's Oddity' it is:

That's what I thought should have been done, too, but since I had no Star Wars songs, I didn't speak up. :-[

Hey Philbo - - - what's stopping you from hosting an "Amiright Star Trek/Star Wars/LOTR Parody Contest" ?  Sounds like a fun idea, why dontcha go for it? 

After this generic Sci-Fi/Fantasy contest, why don't you host a specialized contest just for, say, LOTR or SW or ST?

Doesn't even have to be after, could be concurrent, too!

I'm doing too many of these competitions already - I was planning on running one or two themed ones after we'd finished the ABCs, using polls rather than vote counting just to see how well it works out.

Wait for me I am gonna enter I am waiting for amiright to put it on the website. ;D

Did someone say Star Wars songs?  ???

Did someone REALLY say.. STAR WARS Songs???

:o

But.. I can only choose one.  :\'(

Oh well, I think this one is my best:

Yes! It Is Completed! Check This One Out, It Is My Only Parody So Far - http://www.amiright.com/parody/60s/richardharris8.shtml ;D

Umm.. Where do I vote Mr. D?

Thank you for entering!  :)

Sol R., maybe it's just my PC, but it's very difficult to read your colorful posts.

LOL, I found myself squinting at Sol's posts...thought it was my eyes.

Okay, this is my last post like this ;D

It was practically impossible for me to choose...and I'm still not sure I picked the right one...and honestly it's not like it matters...because I don't really ever expect to win...but...alas...here's one of my many LOTR parodies...that I'm rather proud of...

http://www.amiright.com/parody/60s/thebeatles720.shtml

I choose my new one, named "The One Ring" http://amiright.com/parody/misc/songfrommontypythonandtheholygrail0.shtml

...

I can't find the voting thread. Could someone please give me the URL?

Patience, Mr Sistum (or should I call you "Sol"?) - the voting thread doesn't get posted until the entry thread is closed...

Ah.. Okay, i am new here...and you may call me what you wish.. ;)

LOL, I found myself squinting at Sol's posts...thought it was my eyes.


If you move your mouse over the blurry text and highlight it, it becomes much easier to read - even the moving variety. 

D'oh...now why didn't I think of that?  I know...it must be my unfamiliarity with these machines in the first place.  Either that or some serious lack on my part.  :\'(  ;)

Well, it was a tough decision.  I decided to go with "Captain Kirk, The Space Wanderer" to Dion & The Belmonts oldier,  "The Wanderer"
