You Guys, The Ellen Page “Don’t Stop Believin’” Video Is Supposed To Be Terrible

Ellen Page, Alia Shawkat (Maeby), and Har Mar Superstar made this video where they sing off-key to Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’,” and everybody’s FREAKING OUT because it’s so bad, but don’t you guys see: it’s SUPPOSED to be bad.

After the jump, 5 Reasons the Arrested Development movie might be bad.
