The MTV Movie Awards (The Oscars of the 17-22 Demographic™) has wisely contracted director Brett Ratner, the accomplished cinematic parodist whose feature-length works are uproarious, pitch-perfect send-ups of blockbuster-producing genres like the buddy film and the summer superhero flick, to publicize a just-announced contest soliciting user-generated spoofs of their favorite Hollywood fare using a variety of pre-cleared clips and music. To get prospective entrants in the spirit of the competition, Ratner has provided his own satirical short, in which he and longtime, English-challenged collaborator Jackie Chan simulate a pitch meeting for X-Men 4, a flight of comedic fancy rendered surprisingly poignant when one remembers that it was Ratner's hilarious X:Men: The Last Stand installment that brought the beloved franchise to an abrupt end.
