Last night the Tribeca Film Festival celebrated the 25th anniversary of Michael Jackson’s Thriller with a drive-in screening and dance party. NY Mag has video from the event. Um, maybe it was my state of mind (let’s go with “overtired and giggly”), but when I saw this teaser for the 11pm WNBC report on the event, I had to rewind and watch it 8 times. Clearly Sue Simmons had a ten-word limit, but she chose these ten words:

“Movie drive-in ZOMBIES it’s a Tribeca thriller at 11!” “Movie drive-in ZOMBIES it’s a Tribeca thriller at 11!” I just imagine old people seeing it and freaking out.

    i liked it, it’s local news version of adding tags to your post. instead you read random keywords off a TelePrompTer (did i capitalize that right?) and hope old people stay awake for another few minutes. it serves the same function that gay bashing ballot initiatives do for republicans (zing!)
