point break humor

17 Feb 2006

Via Carneggy:

This NYC theatre group is staging “Point Break Live!”, a stage adaptation of the stinker film with Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze.

The brilliance? They grab a random audience member each night to play the Keanu Reeves role, with the person reading their lines entirely off cue cards for the duration of the show.

Can’t be a worse performance!

Also, I found this amusing, from the IMDB entry for Point Break:

Plot Outline: An FBI agent goes undercover to catch a gang of bank robbers who may be surfers.

Greanted it’s been a while since I’ve seen the movie, but I am pretty sure it was unclear whether or not they were bank robbers. It was pretty obvious they were surfers. The giant boards, wetsuits, and “duuuuude”’s are a dead giveaway.
