As you’ve been reading lately, there’s been a ton of crazy casting talks, specifically with The Hobbit movies and Spider-Man 4.
The specific crazy name that was rumored for the role of Bilbo Baggins in The Hobbit was Jack Black, which I think is ridiculous and figured would never happen (and Black even denied this rumor to MTV yesterday). But it made me think back a little bit to a couple of videos that are kind of fitting and pretty damn hilarious. I’m sure many of you will remember them from the 2002 MTV Movie Awards, which was hosted by Jack Black and Sarah Michelle Gellar.
Follow me, if you will, to a magical place where Jack Black is cast in Lord of the Rings AND as Peter Parker in Spider-Man in these two video spoofs below.
Don’t forget, this year’s MTV Movie Awards airs tonight at 8pm EST and there’s sure to be plenty more video spoofs like these.
