Anyone who saw the Jack Black/Mos Def/Michel Gondry film “Be Kind Rewind” earlier this year already understands the joy of being “Sweded.” If you didn’t see it–well, it’s a bit complicated, but basically a Sweded film is an amateur remake of a classic movie using homemade props and your friends as actors, which is how the main characters in “Be Kind” save their small town video store from greedy land developers. (It made more sense at the time.) The marketing department at video sharing site Shufuni must have seen it too, because now they’re asking users to make their own Sweded movies–but with nudity and sex, of course. And they’re offering prizes to the best interpretations.
It’s sort of like what “Pirates II” would be to “Pirates of the Caribbean,” if the porn version didn’t have a bigger budget. Just like that blockbuster, no one has actually finished one for Shufuni yet, but we predict that this will be the greatest creative advance in the history of porn … or a colossal internet disaster. Either way, it should be fun to watch.
