Voice Over (mp3)
"Voice Over" is the latest project of artist Brian Joseph Davis, who also did the Ten Banned Albums, Burned, Then Played project. in Voice Over, Davis created a text based on lines from 500 different film trailers, then gave the cut-and-pasted text to professional voiceover artist Scott Taylor to read. It sounds really great if you play it more than once at the same time, which I hereby claim dibs on for my Wednesday show. You can stream Voice Over from this page, or download the MP3 here.
Amazing. This is the voice over trailer for the Francis E. Dec biopic coming to a remote control eye radio near you.

Brilliant.
I work at a movie theatre and I have to endure this dreadful delivery with every "Sony Pictures Classics" piece of shit that rolls through. This is going to go on loop for intermissions.

I laughed 'til I puked. Just a little.
This is crying out for a mash-up of cheesy instrumental background music and sound effects.

Apparently they only read through 6 of the 22 pages in the audio clip. It goes forever.
