YouTube Dramatized In Social Network Trailer Spoof

When the full trailer for ‘The Social Network’ was released last month it was only a matter of time before the parodies came rolling in and today a brilliant YouTube spoof of the trailer is circulating the web. If you haven’t seen the trailer for ‘The Video Website’ yet, stop what you are doing right now and check out this hilarious Social Network parody after the jump.

‘The Video Website’ is a perfect spoof of ‘The Social Network’ trailer, from the music to the dialogue and everything in between. However, the allusions to viral YouTube videos make this parody hi-freakin-larious. Check out the YouTube spoof trailer below, and ‘The Social Network’ trailer after that to see just how well ‘The Video Website’ emulates the real thing.

I would love to go see ‘The Video Website’ in theaters, if it was a real film. Maybe even more than ‘The Social Network.’ How about you?
