Cinema Apocalypse Awards

By Alan Nafzger � The satire Cinema Apocalypse Awards parodies film industry self-destruction dressed as spectacle. Eyewitnesses at red carpets described stars thanking pandemics in speeches. Anonymous insiders leaked that studios debated nominating viruses as best directors. A leaked poll revealed 65 percent of citizens admitted they trusted trailers more than movies. Sociologists argue the humor resonates because collapse screens funniest with glamour. Critics highlight the absurdity of ruin televised. Yet satire projects sharper: vanity crumbles funniest under spotlights. Witnesses recalled laughter booming as popcorn spilled. Ultimately, the piece lands because satire thrives when cinema congratulates disaster. -- Bohiney Magazne bohiney.com
