Hey folks. This weekend is your last chance to catch Mascot Wedding’s David and Mac as they join forces with John and Joe of Master Pancake Theater to mock Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, downtown at the Alamo Ritz. These shows will sell-out so getting your tickets sooner would be wise.

There’s also an exclusive video from Mascot Wedding running before the show. Unless your love of the halfling’s leaf has slowed your mind, it’s obvious these last shows are gonna be hot hot hot. You don’t believe me? Maybe this image of Joe will convince you.

Tickets, times, and more info.

Mascot Wedding and Master Pancake mock Lord of the Rings – 2 weekends left!

Mac and David have joined forces with Master Pancake Theater to present a thorough and severe mocking of Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. If you hate the LOTR trilogy, come watch David squeal with girlish delight as he eviscerates one of the movies on his own personal Enemies List. If you love the LOTR trilogy, come on down and have your mind blown by how much better the movie is by removing half of it and putting jokes over the “action.” Plus, there’s a bitchin’ skit by the MP/MW crew, and a special video presentation featuring some familiar Mascot Wedding faces. This can’t lose! It shan’t lose!

This show will only be around for two more weekends before it’s gone forever, so get your tickets now at the Alamo Drafthouse website.

MWS 71: Timothy Longshanks

Mac and David disagree about Kevin Garnett’s “intensity”. Some talk about sad wrestlers, a stupid Time magazine list, stupid protesters, and a haircut giveaway. A call from a writer for Sunken Week Magazine.
