THERE'S A 3D KATY PERRY MOVIE??

[–]guyver_dio 226 points227 points ago

Directed by Tim Burton. Johnny Depp stars as Katy Perry

[–]EndOnAnyRoll 144 points145 points ago

Helena Bonham Carter stars as Johnny Depp.

[–]Depressed_Downvoter 34 points35 points ago

The sad thing is I could totally see this being a real thing.

[–]shutupjoey 0 points1 point ago

Only if there's a scene around a ridiculously large table.

[–]asianwaste 23 points24 points ago

and Tim Burton as M. Night Shyamalan.

[–]wutangswordstyle 13 points14 points ago

score by Christopher Nolan covering Hans Zimmer

[–]dazwah 11 points12 points ago

Wrong. It will always be Danny Elfman.

[–]wutangswordstyle 4 points5 points ago

I thought Danny Elfman was doing wardrobe?

[–]PickettsLetharge 2 points3 points ago

Wrong. It will always be Jenna Elfman.

[–]Birdie_Num_Num 5 points6 points ago

Sorry, but it's Will Ferrell. He was Elf, man.

Fuck him, he doesn't have boobs.

Nope, still vacuous.

You're the third one to come up with this extremely original joke. Enough already.

[–]yungkrizzleshawty -1 points0 points ago

Must've seen my comment yesterday.

[–]nixle 3 points4 points ago

No I did not actually. Did I steal you joke? Sorry m8. Have an upvote!

[–]yungkrizzleshawty 1 point2 points ago

It's ok, I feel much better now.

[–]MyNameIsShelton 195 points196 points ago

This should be in r/funny because, well, it's hilarious.

[–]kwyjibohunter 9 points10 points ago

Not yet, give it another 8 months to a year. First the photos come out, then someone makes this and posts it to 4chan, then it gets to /r/ImGoingToHellForThis , followed quickly by /r/toosoon. We are currently at the /r/WTF stage, where we as redditors can still maintain some plausible deniability as to the darkness of our souls and here is where it'll be reposted for the time being until we've entered the "its okay to /r/funny" stage. After that we can look forward to this making the rounds on 9gag and Facebook, and then someone will combine the last two frames and make a horribly animated gif which will circulate on Tumblr.

[–]thegrammarunicorn[M] 10 points11 points ago

I agree (that it should be in /r/funny ... or any other subreddit really. The only reason that it's been posted here is because of the 'too soon' element of the joke).

[–]The_Friskiest_Dingo 2 points3 points ago

Or maybe /r/toosoon...

[–]shutupjoey 6 points7 points ago

[–]chairface87 26 points27 points ago

And i will join that person! Hell must be hilarious by now!

[–]metarugia 6 points7 points ago

Ahh but all the laughing comes at a price? Think about it. All the best comedy is in hell. You go down there, and you start laughing, and laughing some more. Soon you realize you can't stop laughing. You start laughing you need to pee REAL bad now. Thats when you realize it. There are no bathrooms in hell.

[–]zersch 5 points6 points ago

I figured pissing on one another with reckless abandon would be par for course in Hell.

[–]Fentia 1 point2 points ago

Ah yes, damnation WITHOUT relief.

[–]zombieslaya1138 -1 points0 points ago

Or you realize that you are thirsty and order a beer, only to realize that the beer in hell is bud light.

[–]NEPwntriots 11 points12 points ago

Someone is going to hell for spelling premiere wrong.

[–]aleatoric 4 points5 points ago

Well, premier is a word. They just used the wrong one. Common mistake.

Premiere = The first public debut or presentation of something

Premier = Highest ranked in status or importance

[–]Dordorro 8 points9 points ago

So what you're saying is that they spelled premiere wrong.

[–]aleatoric 0 points1 point ago

This is semantics. A misspelling is ignorance of the accepted order of letters a word has. This premiere/premier error likely resulted from from the confusion between two homophonic heterographs. That's a word mixup, not a misspelling. "Premier" isn't a misspelled word; it's the wrong word.

It's possible the person has no knowledge of "premier" as a word, and does not know how to spell "premiere." When it comes to homophones, though, mixup is the more likely source of error.

If I make a "tpyo," I didn't commit a misspelling. The word "typo" may in fact be misspelled, but I committed a typo, not a misspelling. The former is an action, and the latter is the result. There are many different actions that can result in a misspelling other than ignorantly inputting the wrong order of letters.

Yes, that's where it was originally posted earlier today. This probably just lacks the x-post reference.

[–]Bladewing10 2 points3 points ago

Or it's just blatant karma whoring.

[–]fiction8 -1 points0 points ago

So because a few thousand people saw it, it's karma whoring if you share it with millions more?

You do know what the point of this site is, right?

[–]everfalling 76 points77 points ago

he shot up the wrong theater and only just found out.... ba dump tss

[–]fiction8 0 points1 point ago

The punchline is ruined in the first panel. :/

It would be a much better joke if you ordered the panels 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 1st. (And make the 1st less wordy.)

[–]shankeith 8 points9 points ago

First frame:

He is explaining why he shot up the theatre. He thinks anyone who watched "katy perry the movie 3d" in that theatre should be shot.

Second frame:

Judge asks, why did you shoot up the Dark Knight theatre then?

Third frame:

Holmes is thinking "wait a minute..."

Fourth frame(punchline):

"O Shoot i shot up the wrong one!"

TLDR: Punchline: He shot up the Dark knight theatre instead of the Katy Perry 3d theatre(but later realizes he shot the wrong one) bc anyone who watched Katy Perry 3d the movie deserves to die.

[–]Bunnyfloppyearz 0 points1 point ago

How is the "punchline" not already present within first line of the joke? The first line already makes it clear that he intended to and thought he killed people in a katy perry movie. So how is the rest of the joke at all funny? Jokes flourish on unexpectedness.

Something about a Katy perry movie should have been the punchline, not the first line.

[–]piporpaw 0 points1 point ago

I think you may need to explain it a few more times.

[–]qwertzuioopasd 0 points1 point ago

I think it's also about that one girl looking like Katy Perry. Still not very funny but I think if you don't know that, then it's even less funny http://cheezburger.com/4007642112

[–]nahojjjen -4 points-3 points ago

You're not alone.

[–]Secret_Agent_Bear 16 points17 points ago

I like to imagine that right before he started shooting he shouted "What killed the dinosaurs? THE ICE AGE!" Then, when the cops asked him why he did it he told them "This town deserves a better class of criminal."

In the end though he'll get sentenced to death. Death by exile.

[–]the_troll_of_aus 5 points6 points ago

YOU STOLE THIS FROM /r/imgoingtohellforthis!!

At least give credit to the person that made it.......

[–]algo 6 points7 points ago

You can't tell me that people who post there would be upset about karma theft? They make jokes about dead babies.

[–]LupivTheGreat 1 point2 points ago

But karma is serious business!

[–]eggstacy 1 point2 points ago

can't hurt a dead baby's feelings.

He thought he was shooting up a Katy Perry movie.

[–]IamtheBiscuit -1 points0 points ago

Seems like a legit argument.

[–]-JS- -1 points0 points ago

I was dreaming last night and this guy just casually made an appearance. He was just sitting in a white SUV. I'm kinda scared that he's Freddy Kruger.

[–]Nothingtotalkabout 0 points1 point ago

Don't worry, his knives would jam and he'd say fuck it and go sit out back.

[–]Poontickle -1 points0 points ago

Hell is going to be one funny place. I'm looking forward to it.

[–]nisalt 0 points1 point ago

So I guess that means i am going to hell for laughing. Damnit!

This is him

Damn I actually laughed! Feels so weird to actually laugh and feel guilty at the same time!

[–]OnlyALetter 0 points1 point ago

Instead of just alluding to the subreddit you stole this from, just admit you x-posted it. It's really no big deal.

[–]Anticitizen_One 0 points1 point ago

I'll see them there.

You are lucky this REPOST is funny. Take my goddamn upvote.

[–]mrprezident 0 points1 point ago

Let me share some facts with you. Hell does not exist, you made this graphic, you are a pussy for not admitting it.

[–]SweetHeartkiller -2 points-1 points ago

That someone is you.

[–]Sharkie4194 0 points1 point ago

Why are you guys all bitching that it's "too soon"? People are going to make jokes about things all the time. Get used to the fact! Plus everything is "too soon". Someone could make a joke about Jesus on the cross and there will be someone "too soon". Just get over it guys come on! Just let them make their jokes.

[–]rostov007 -2 points-1 points ago

The problem isn't that it's too soon. The problem is that the OP has no empathy. Empathy results in proper distance between a traumatic event and resultant humor. Go watch Jon Stewart's first show after 9/11 for a great example of a comedian grappling with this question. He doesn't make fun of the terrorists. He tries to use humor to comfort the victims, not get a laugh at their expense.

I would imagine it's at least possible that one of the families of the victims is a Redditer. If they see it, at best they will think the OP careless, at worst they will be filled with thoughts that their loved one died as a "mistake".

Downvote me if you like, but I'm pretty sure that there is a right and wrong way to look at this. All you have to do is imagine for a second that it was your brother, your sister, or your child who was killed.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

We can't all alter our sense of humor on the off chance that it may make someone uncomfortable. Fuck that noise

[–]workworkwork9000 0 points1 point ago

Agreed. Empathy is the ability to feel and understand what others are feeling. A rational and empathetic person may choose, fully understanding the feelings of the victims' families, to make supposedly "too soon" jokes. To suggest that any joke about a tragedy stems from a lack of empathy is to suggest that one speaks from a perspective of moral authority, but the fact is everyone is different and always deferring to the feelings of others is not the only defensible moral position.

[–]rostov007 0 points1 point ago

I wasn't talking about deferring to the feelings of others, I was talking about deferring to your own.

[–]stufff 0 points1 point ago

The problem isn't that it's too soon.

proper distance between a traumatic event and resultant humor

You see what you did there? You just said it wasn't about it being too soon and then went on to describe why it was too soon.

[–]siouxu -1 points0 points ago

Just A bet?

[–]agoMiST -1 points0 points ago

It may be too soon but at least he's being ridiculed.

I'd rather see the guy mocked than hear all the theories of why he did what he did, his various motivations and beliefs.

It's been said by many an academic and social commenter that the amount of attention these spree killing, mass shooting types get only fuels the fire in other similar people...

As such I feel that mocking and ridicule is a better angle than painting the perpetrator a monster.

[–]Mr_Captain_Sir -1 points0 points ago

This isn't WTF but it's fucking hilarious. It belongs in r/toosoon or r/imgoingtohellforthis

Too soon.

[–][deleted] ago

[deleted]

[–]Frankenfish 0 points1 point ago

We understand, it's just not funny. Just because it's "too soon" doesn't make it funny

It's a dumb joke. "oh he went into the wrong theater". Why is this a punchline? Unless the OP wants to compare the Katy Perry and TDKR, or compare the audiences of the two, there is no punchline. If he is comparing them, why? When have these two audiences ever been considered similar?

But everyone else will laugh, simply because it just happened.

[–]WhiteCollarMetalHead -3 points-2 points ago

What if I told you ...... there is no hell

[–]gmharryc 1 point2 points ago

Sure there is. Ever been to Detroit?

[–]DoctorWedgeworth 1 point2 points ago

I'd assume you were asserting as fact something you cannot prove, in a similar vein to many religious folks.

[–]WhiteCollarMetalHead 0 points1 point ago

Id also assert that flying unicorns dont exist, but I cant prove that either. I guess I will have to just treat every extreme claim as a possibility now that you have shown me the error of my ways.

[–]DoctorWedgeworth 0 points1 point ago

I know your response was sarcastic, but you really should acknowledge the fact that until you can prove something doesn't exist, there's a possibility, however remote, that it does. This is even more important if you're attempting to use logic in your arguments against the religious.

[–]WhiteCollarMetalHead 0 points1 point ago

Its impossible to prove that supernatural things do not exist, so yes, it is true that there's a possibility that things do. As much value you're placing in this claim should also be placed into treating something with a perceived "extremely low" possibility as less credible than something with a higher possibility of being accurate.
