The Onion Movie
The Onion Movie (released in some countries as News Movie) is a 2008 satirical American comedy film written by The Onion writers Robert D. Siegel and Todd Hanson. It was filmed in 2003 and released on June 3, 2008, direct-to-video. It is Rodney Dangerfield's final film role, prior to his death in October 2004.
The plot revolves around a fictitious Onion television news anchorman, Norm Archer (Len Cariou). He is forced to face a corporate takeover by Onion's perennial multinational, Global Tetrahedron. The media conglomerate is interrupting Archer's newscasts with product placement commercials for 'Cock Puncher', the company's action movie franchise, which is a 'whap right in the nutsack' for the veteran newsman. Onion news is described as "fair and balanced". The plot is a springboard for various comedy sketches featuring The Onion's satire. Vignettes include music videos parodies of Britney Spears ['Take Me From Behind' '...about love sneaking up on you...like...you know... from the behind.'] and Steven Seagal parodying the action hero genre he normally portrays as the world famous 'Cock Puncher'. The plot is interrupted by film reviewers and commentators weighing in on its progress, with one staging an immediate walkout of all African American audience members unless a positive portrayal of an African American is inserted into the plot.
