So I asked +Keith Cramer what he was up to this weekend and I told him I had something I wanted him to help me out with. Suggest a scene from television or movies and with whatever props we have on-hand and minimal time and planning, we will attempt to do a photo reenactment of the scene. Keith should really ask more questions before saying yes. Oh, I also volunteered (in absentia) +Lori Cramer and +Kristi Fahlsing to help.
We will attempt as many as we can. Please keep the scenes PG-13. Pics will be posted after the weekend. 😉
EDIT: We were originally thinking stills… but it is apparent we may need to do video clips to truly do silly justice to this concept.

When the asteroid slams into Paris, in Armageddon
any scene in Pulp Fiction, maybe the car scene!
Raiders Of The Lost Ark.
Big ball chasing Indy scene or the part where he steals the Idol.
Christopher Walken as Vincent Coccotti in True Romance talking to Dennis Hoper as Clifford Worley. Specifically this line:
Coccotti: "I'm the Anti-Christ. You got me in a vendetta kind of mood. You tell the angels in heaven you never seen evil so singularly personified as you did in the face of the man who killed you. My name is Vincent Coccotti. I work as counsel for Mr. Blue Lou Boyle, the man your son stole from. I hear you were once a cop so I can assume you've heard of us before. Am I correct?"
I did this a while back on Instagram with my daughter, Violet. Never kept it up though:

The assault course in Full Metal Jacket, or the final scene in the maze in The Shining.
+Matt Ingrouille Those are cute! You should do more! Hm. We were thinking stills, but maybe video is going to have to happen. Cell cams and Ed Wood style of course.
http://ca.ign.com/top/movie-moments/86
If you do video I think the key is to try and mimic the camera angles and cuts as much as possible. I think I may need more practice or wait until Violet is older. Hah.
The first scene that came to mind was the Phoebe Cates fantasy pool scene in Fast Times at Ridgemont High, but then I got to the end of the article and saw PG-13. So, how about the apes find the monolith from 2001?
Hm. +Keith Cramer and +Lori Cramer actually DO have an ape suit…….. 😉
Anything Star Wars is a must.

5. Fight scene with Crispin Glover "Get your hands off her." from Back to the Future.
6. Biblical Proportions
Contact – "They should have sent a poet" (they should have sent a poet!!!)
Donnie Brasco, the scene where Lefty questions him about the boat and is all "that's a federal boat". Or the one where Donnie is all "there was no rat (dumb—-) screwed up paying off the cops."
Anything Mel Brooks. (Robin Hood comes to mind.)
These are great! Btw… You should have seen +Keith Cramer 's face when he saw himself as Walter White in tightie whities. 😉
+Thomas Price Sick, sick man.
YAY! You do know that a call out is basically as good as a legally binding contract to perform.. so.. yes.. I'm very happy! _Make it so, number one._
Yep, I didn't think you were getting me into this kind of trouble. I'll dig out the ape suit.
Never say "Not much" when +Scott Cramer asks what you are doing on the weekend.
The Godfather – when Sonny gets shot.
oh, I like +Oleg Moskalensky 's idea a lot.
Going to be an interestingly busy weekend. 😉
Well well gleeful grin

You mean friends.. <_<
No wait, devious minds is actually an apt description, carry on 🙂
Ya reckon +Scott Cramer 😉
Gone with the wind anyone? When Harry met Sally?
Casablanca, Airport scene?
300, THIS IS SPARTA!
Casablanca!
Any scene from any of the Bring It On movies; preferably one of the scenes where they use the word 'cheer' in the same excessive way as Smurfs use the word 'smurf.'
Dumb and Dumber.
(Save Brokeback Mountain for someone special 😉
Cheers, +Halfdan Reschat ! Did you mean the British "Carry on" movies?
+Dirk Reul , I've never even heard about that. Is it worth checking out?
They are old British movies, I am not quite sure how they hold up today, but I enjoyed them as a kid. +Andrew Clifton-Brown what do you think?
I loved them as a kid and still think of them fondly Dirk 🙂
Well then, Halfdan. I think you can still get them I might just watch them again 🙂
Standoff : Good the bad the ugly.
I shall be spreadsheeting out scenarios later today and taking stock of what props are sitting about……. Unlike +Keith Cramer I do not have any ape suits in the bedroom… 😉
Yes, look how no one commented on that..
Trading Places – Gorilla/Clown
You could both play Hanna Montana!
This will be an interesting weekend!
Rhett and Scarlet – Gone With The Wind
Nobody suggested Titanic? We already have a pic of Keith as Rose. But maybe the Kingoftheworld scene?
O_O
oh that is good..
Seeing as Star Wars has already been covered, how about a Doctor Who scene? perhaps the infamous 'FishFingers & Custard' discovery in young Amy's kitchen? (I'll let you decide who gets to be The Doctor and who will be a little girl) ;P
KEITH EVEN HAS A BOAT. c'mon!
Monkey suit….. Isn't there a kissing scene in the original planet of the apes?
How many hours are there in a weekend… I think we may need to do a Tardis scene, just to get it done…
The bathtub/ferret scene from The Big Lewbowski.
I wonder if +Scott Cramer and +Keith Cramer weekend start like this:
Pinky! Are You Pondering What I'm Pondering? p1
That is exactly how it should begin +Dirk Reul !!
I will never see them in any other way now, +Patty Rose !
Now, who is Pinky and who is Brain? 😉
+Dirk Reul, Pinky and Pinky?
I think you have a point there, Halfdan 😉
Umm… Hey… Wait a sec……!!!
Did I just render +Scott Cramer speechless? 😉
Ich ben nien noodlenoggin!
O_o
Car scene from Titanic…
Now that is just wrong…
+Knut Torgersen On so many levels, wrong.
+Andrew Clifton-Brown Help!
Actually, "Luke, I am your father!" was my original thought before seeing some other "creative" ones
So Wong.
http://goo.gl/35p2P
If the Car scene is too racey, you could go prude and do an Amish scene from Witness.
Witness (8/9) Movie CLIP – Rachel's Choice (1985) HD
Ha! Ok… We have more than we can handle. Only 3 "in the can so far". Keith had some prior commitments. Hoping to pound more out tonight and/or tomorrow. Getting the camera down (have a loaner) took a couple. 🙂
"3 in the can" sounds way to dirty bro. You can have that honor.
No idea what 3 in the can might mean <_<
…especially dirty sounding when followed with "Hoping to pound more out."
So, they did the Titanic car scene after all?
Geez guys. Poor choice of words on my part on previous comment! It is my brother, after all. Comment stream sanitized. Bathing in eye/brain bleach now.
bahahahah
The Internet Never Forgets
Don't tell me you were surprised.
Damn right +Mellie B
Not surprised at all! Plus… it was kind of my fault. LOL
Just think what +Andrew Clifton-Brown, +Dirk Reul and +Luis Roca could do to twist those words around. I should have taken a screen cap to sell them. Oh well.
+Chad Haney HA! Plot foiled! 😉 We did a #cramerbrothers version of two of the most non PG-13 suggestions in here just cuz we love you guys. But that's it. No spoilers.
Follow-up to suggestions…
+Bearman Cartoons You said, "Eddie Murphy and Dan Akroyd from Trading Places with all the money in their hands." It's been a LONG time since I have seen this one. Can you point to a YouTube clip by any chance for this scene???
+J. Hancock You said, "Fight Club… sitting on the curb punching yourself out." Also been a LONG time since seeing this one. Could you find a specific clip on YouTube?
sorry +Scott Cramer, it seems Youtube posters are more interesting in people beating each other up. =P
+J. Hancock I saw that too! Okay, will maybe have to rent the movie! 😉
Founding Fathers?
Is that a movie? Clip?
No. darn, that fine print!
A clip from Sharknado?
Ha! Amazed I have not seen that one!
From what I hear, no real loss at all. Sharknado is one of those "I do not want to see it" items.
Aw, Sharknado was actually so bad it's worth seeing. 🙂 Very funny.
Well. We have completed 8 so far. Depending on brother's schedule, more later. And, when I said low budget, you know I meant "really bad" right?
Okay… Back soon. Gotta go buy more ketchup.
Are you guys giving The Asylum a challenge for low budget?
We make Asylum and Ed Wood look like James Cameron and Michael Bay.
We make Asylum and Ed Wood look like James Cameron and Michael Bay.
I am quoting this, because I think this is the first and last time we will ever see these comparisons meant to be favorable.
Hmmm.. I'm thinking you might still be giving our reenactments a little too much polish…
FYI, corn syrup and food colouring makes for better fake blood than ketchup (assuming why you're out).
+Patty Rose True… True… We just squished the bottle and went with it. Our theory… One take. No do overs. 😉
That is the theory that The Asylum uses, so…
Fair enough +Scott Cramer .
And… Garbage bag suit in the sun… Hot. Very hot.
Ah. Shooting is done. We managed to finish 14 scenes in two days. Need to throw them into an editor and stitch them together with some title cards. So… very… awful! You have been warned! 😉
I can't wait!
I'm still not sure if I want this to be part of the legacy I someday leave behind.
It's not too late to lock the footage in a vault… just sayin'
I am looking forward to all the awfulness.
This footage is so bad, it would eat through a vault.
+Halfdan Reschat Sharknado looks like Shindler's List compared to this.
So… +Keith Cramer decided to get a little cheeky with sharing a preview! It's in the
sisterlybrotherly code that I must follow suit.https://plus.google.com/105986763264590753118/posts/PvE1MwRhNvf
when you say "cheeky" you mean regular Saturday evening dress code?
"Dress" code. hehe… I see what you did there.
I will be here all week 🙂
Do you remember Happy Days? +Keith Cramer? Mmmhhhhh… I would see well in the role of the mother of Ron Award (Mrs. Marion) give an affectionate kiss as an aunt, a Fonzie (played by +Scott Cramer ) when he returns home after he closed the workshop!
HEY! 😀
You guys always put a smile on my face 😀
Hm. That makes one wonder where else it would go??? 😉
mind out of gutter Mr Cramer 😛
Mrs. Cunningham… yeah, OK, she was pretty cool.
+Jo Lane O:-) It was purely an academic question.
I'm sure ;P
Also purely academic, but I note that you did not answer… 😉
I created the all the slates for beginning, end, and in-between and passed them over to Keith to stitch together. He has some family stuff to do tonight so e.t.a. unknown… but rapidly approaching. I'm giving you all time to buy blindfolds and run away. 😉
Oh. Family.
Yup. Most important thing there is. 🙂
My brother and I are pretty tight, but he'd never ware a dress on film, no matter how flattering the cut.
I'm kind of excited to laugh
atwith you guys 😉I have not seen most of the videos except on the tiny video camera screen. We had a great time with them… and if we do not blind all of our friends then maybe I can convince Keith to do some more. Bwahaha! 😉
I think at least two of my brother's would be pretty easy to convince.
O? Get crackin' +Kyla Myers !!! Hehe
Gotta wait for +Kevin Hatcher to visit. Heh
Last preview. Hopefully video up tonight. You have been warned. LOL
https://plus.google.com/105986763264590753118/posts/8NMXmsi3FXk
It is done.

I'm very disappointed +Scott Cramer & +Keith Cramer – you picked silly Dr. Who over The Godfather? We're talking a brother being shot in a car… you must've had some personal issues where this just hit too close to home and then remembering how well blanks worked for Brandon Lee decided to forgo that classic moment. That's the only logical explanation that'll allow me to sleep tonight… Otherwise – no excuse…
Other than that – I liked the titles.. 🙂
This was grand. Period.
+Oleg Moskalensky Part 2? 😉 Honest injun, though, we tried to get to as many as possible! Strangely enough, we really did mention the Brandon Lee thing, except with a knife for another scene. Spooky
+Knut Torgersen Thank you! We hope to win an Oscar (the Grouch). 😉
+Scott Cramer, absolutely! Part 2 will work 🙂 After all – they couldn't fit everything into Godfather I, so II was made and since you're making an epic film yourself – it's only fitting.
And since we're discussing a whole new part – I got another one for you, which I think you and +Keith Cramer would appreciate – the lunch scene from Dirty, Rotten Scoundrels, where Ruprikt asks to be excused for #1… nobody gets killed in that one, but I think you guys can reenact it with a very low budget.
Btw, did anyone ever tell you guys that your last name is misspelled… based on your personas – shouldn't it be spelled Kramer?… just wondering… 😉
+Oleg Moskalensky Kramer? Nope. Never ever ever ever heard that. O_o
And… will have to go re-watch that one! It's been yeeeeeears!
+Scott Cramer, my mistake… 😉
Ruprect
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels – May I go to the bathroom?
If you do it – make sure to use a good cork…
