Whoa! I thought this was real for a second and didn’t want to read the plot for fear of spoilers :see_no_evil:

I’m not sure I got all the political intrigue, but that Wikipedia design, so fully replacing the site’s, I’m truly impressed, really well done!

Loosely based on the forthcoming book by Mark Judge and Ronan Farrow.

Haha, great faking indeed and as a bonus the links at the bottom led me into beschizza.com where I greatly enjoyed this retro-microgaming-era-spookstory which I hadn’t seen before, awesome stuff, thanks Rob

Was this meant as satire or documentary?

The grimmest screwball comedy in history.

I see this shot in overly saturated Kodachrome film mixed with black and white.

This could be a sequal to The Hottie and the Avenatti.

Is it toma-TOM-eter or to-MATO-meter?

Anyway, two thumbs up, way up. So far up. If I could have more thumbs, I would put them all up. Or bigger thumbs. So much bigger thumbs.

I laugh, because I would cry if I did not.

Bravo! Well done!

One quibble though; Steve Buscemi, although he has quirky charm is not quite right for Avenatti. I’d like to suggest a last minute casting change. How about Jason Statham? Bald and pugnacious enough.

I would love for Steven Root to play Trump.

And he has, in the past, run for president.

I’m also looking forward to the new sitcom “Judge and Judge” on the Outdoor Channel, where a Supreme Court Justice whose wife leaves him (after finding an old photo of him “boofing,” a term which is never defined in the show) ends up moving onto the couch of his old high school buddy. Hilarity ensues! The pilot episode “Kegger With Clarence” is set to be shot in October 2019. Other upcoming episodes include “Roe v. Wade v. Keg” and “The Ales of Justice.”

I have to say, I grew up hearing flatulence referred to as farting…as I suspect most people did. My spouse however who was raised in Nigeria did grow up calling if “boofing”. So when that was brought up I didn’t winder what it was. I wondered why they mentioned it!!!

I don’t recall in my high school year book any mentioned farting, giving someone a dutch oven, or ass blast drive bys. Kind of disgusting.

And in one episode we find out the Justice was actually married to Lindsey Graham’s former sister now adopted daughter.

To be honest, I wasn’t certain that this was satirical until I saw that it made $6 in Canada and another $5 in the rest of the world. I think the foreign markets would eat this up!

Great work, Mr. Beschizza.
