Freddy vs. Jason vs. Rambo Takes Top Spot at Box Office The
Jumping Car?!
By Liz Fujita ~ Daily Bull
The world has been dreaming
of flying cars since the dawn of
futuristic films. So far, it hasn’t
been practical to assume that
cars will be cruising in special
lanes above the rest of us, but
the world may yet see real-life
leapfrog on the freeway.
Popular car manufacturer
Subaru announced recently
that it’s going to rally for Leap
Zones – similar to passing
lanes, these would be stretches of road where drivers could
physically jump over slower
traffic. What’s the catch? You
would have to be an owner
of their soon-to-be-released
vehicles, the Kangaru.
Basically, the Kangaru propels
the driver through the air at
the touch of a button. Provided said driver is moving fast
enough, the leap should be
feasible. “Kinematics says this
could be possible,” confirmed
several Michigan Tech physics majors. Unfortunately, the
auto industry is working to give
Subaru a sharp reality check.
For instance: what if you go to
jump-pass and the car below
you speeds up?

The horror-action-slasher thriller Freddy
vs. Jason vs. Rambo rocketed to the
top of the box office charts this past
weekend, blowing past Alice in Wonderland with a weekend gross of $77
million.
“It’s a great honor to
have worked with
such a talented and
botched up group of
writers and developers,” cheers Sylvester
Stallone, who co-directed the bloodbath
along with Ronny Yu.
“A chance to bring
to life a beast like
this only comes along
once in a lifetime.”

undead dream killer proceeds to slaughter an untold number of Springwood
residents, much to the chagrin of Rambo.
“This guy’s seen a lot in his day, but
this takes the cake,” Stallone explains
at a Hollywood press
conference. “All he
knows is that he’s gotta
get those civilians outta
there or they’re toast.
It’s do or die time, and
no hockey mask wearing freak is gonna show
up John Rambo’s machete wielding skills.”
The climactic battle
between the three experienced killers takes
place in an abandoned warehouse near
Crystal Lake, where Rambo ambushed
Voorhees in a pit-fall type trap. Sensing
an opportunity to put them both in an
early grave, Freddy swoops in to slash
their throats. Unfortunately for him,
Rambo pulls around his M60 machine
gun in the nick of time and gives the
otherworldly demon a taste of cold,
American lead. The critics rave.
I SAID NO PICKELS!!!
Stallone also plays the part of John
Rambo, a Vietnam War veteran who
becomes sucked into the nightmarish
drama of the Crystal Lake/Springwood
area. While stopping at a small diner,
the hardened soldier witnesses the
grisly slaying of a convertible full of
teenagers by Jason Voorhees, setting
off a string of events that leads to the
reawakening of Freddy Krueger. The

“I was so excited to see Rambo annihilate Jason with that dynamite truck
that I went and saw it in 3-D at an IMAX
theater!” exclaims Ruben Garcia, a rabid fanboy of the Rambo series. “Even
at $15 a ticket, it was sooo worth it.”
Early industry reports indicate that
the limited edition Blu-Ray Death Pack

.50-caliber ammunition, a pocket
machete stained with real blood, and

Well, Generic Man, if that were the
case, a jumping Subaru Kangaru would
almost certainly land squarely on top of
the car it tried to pass, squishing both
vehicles and their drivers into metallic
flap jacks. Since the car only promises
hops, there will be no jet boosters to
ensure a safe landing. Experts do say,
however, that finger-crossing has been
relatively effective in preventing “belly
flops.” Prayer is still being investigative,
since results are shotty.

“We saw in a couple of test runs that
drivers would jump and land their car
on top of another intentionally,” explained Subaru affiliate Philip Nash.
“Then, when the two cross the finish
line, there’s no way of knowing who
won!” Both drivers in the test run are
in intensive care; doctors are working
hard to flatten them out from their Looney Tunes accordion-style injuries.

the road curving away to the left – landing in a bog may be less painful, but it
hampers one’s ability to reach a destination. A group of four damp test-pilots
chimed, “Unless they’re giving the Kangaru functional legs or a prehensile tail,
landing in a ditch, swamp, woods, or
lava pit is going to be a huge hazard.”
Subaru has reluctantly agreed to postpone the release of the Kangaru until further tests are done to improve its usability. In the meantime, competitor Suszuki
plans to unveil a smart car that can slither
beneath semi-trucks when passing lanes
aren’t available, and Toyota wants to improve its design for a motorcycle unicycle. Regardless of which (if any) are
released, travelers nationwide should
be advised to use other means of transit, and remember that sometimes, futuristic innovation is just plain stupid.
