Bring It On Week: The Contest! (Or: The Bring-It-Ontest!)

Posted on by

Bring It On Week continues! And while I did my best to catch the poor unfortunates among you up to speed with my thirty-second recap of the original Bring It On last night, I realize that–especially in matters of bikini carwash scenes–there’s really no substitute for the original.

And that’s where tonight’s event–the cent-cheer-piece of Bring It On week, if you will–comes in!

At this point, it should come as no surprise that I own a copy of Bring It On. In fact, along with stuff like The Big Lebowski, Caddyshack, and of course, the infinitely awesome Josie and the Pussycats, it’s one of the DVDs that I keep in the rotation for background noise whenever I’m up late writing.

However, ever since the release of Bring It On IV: In It To Win It (or Bring It On: Hit It And Quit It, as Chad calls it) prompted me to pick up the complete Cheerbook Collection, I’ve had two copies of the original laying around. And since that’s an honor that I only reserve for one film–that being Sonny Chiba’s The Street Fighter–I’m offering it up to one lucky ISB reader!

The rules? Simple: Just bop on over to this post by full-time cheerfiliate Dr. K, read up on the titles we’ve come up with for the next Bring It On sequel, then come back here and leave a comment with your own suggestion. If I pick yours, you get a free movie, a copy of the ISB 2007 Convention Special with a terrible drawing of your favorite character, and whatever else I have laying around when it comes time to mail stuff.

But here’s the catch: You’ve only got one shot, and you’ve gotta beat me and Dr. K at a game we have played for hours on end. And to be honest, we’re tough to beat, especially given that we’ve already covered both Scream, Bring It On, Scream and I’ll Kill You, I’ll Bury You, and I’ll Bring It On, Too!, which, considering In It To Win It‘s now famous Chainsaw Scene…

 

 

…are an oddly appropriate pair.

Now get cheerin’!

Note: Keep ’em comin, but please, one per customer. I’ll decide on Saturday who gets the prize.

 

 

TONIGHT’S BRING IT ON WEEK CHEERFILIATES:

 

The comics-reading intelligentsia joins the groundswell of support for Bring It On Week!

First up, Tangognat combines the fun of cheerleading with the fun of science… Library Science! It’s, uh, a lot more interesting than I’m making it sound. Be sure to check out the entry on Radical Cheerleading, wherein enterprising young women stick it to The Man with the power of perkiness. Remember, folks: The Cheervolution Will Not Be Televised.

Next, Bitterandrew’s Armagideon Time gets in on the action as only the Official Maestro of the ISB could, by examining two songs used in the movie that you won’t find on the OST in his standard, incredibly cheertriguing style.

And finally, Phil gets in on the action by explaining just how someone can see Bring It On in the theater three times… “by accident.” Sure, Phil. Sure.

 

TOMORROW ON THE ISB:
Bring It On Week Soars to Dizzying New Heights

  64. Dr K’s post offered two different approaches to this challenge: contemporary slang and movie mash-ups. For the slang, I bow to the mastery of Erin Palette’s “I Can Has Cheerleader?” (#60), but here’s another movie tie-in, for what it’s worth:

  95. My brain has not stopped working, and though I’m ineligible for the prize, I just have to do this…

    Bring It On: Cheer of a Black Planet

  99. I know.. only one… but >>>>> those guys did more…..

    Bring It On: Mama Said Knock You Out!

  102. This is the ultimate test of will power. The temptation is so great to post multiple titles…one must ask the question: Can you really only bring it on once?

  105. The kids raise money for new pom-poms by putting on a production of “Seussical” in…

    “Bring It On Beyond Zebra!”

    …Okay, I got nuthin.

    “Bring it On: Grass on The Field…”

    (Sorry about the double post. This one doesn’t count, but it just seemed too perfect not to mention.)

  116. I was so certain that no one else would come up with I Bring It On Your Grave. Truly I have underestimated the ISB’s readership. Thus, I humbly submit:

    Bring It Tron

  118. No Place for Bringing It On

    AKA

    Bring It On: No Place For Old Men…

    (Seriously sir, you’re disturbing the other customers, we’ll have ask you to leave the theatre. Oh, for pity’s sake, haven’t you heard of DVD? You can watch the car wash scene on slow mo that way.)

    But really sitting down to watch the four movies most certainly is a place for old men. They’ve earned it, bless ’em. And in that spirit:

    You gotta know when to hold ’em, know when to fold ’em, know when to walk away and when to bring it on

  120. Bring it Ju-on

    The story of an evil, haunted Japanese gymnasium that kills anyone who cheers in it.

  128. Bring It On: Wax On!

    Multiple Choice Meanings:
    a. Karate and Cheering
    b. Waxing, Buffing, Bikinis, and Cheering
    c. All of the above – “A Karate Carwash Cheerleading Movie” (with at least seven kicks to the face)

  130. This has probably been said, but:

    Bring It On The Waterfront.

    Sad thing is, if Marlon Brando were alive he would totally make this.

  131. …aannd then I went and read the Dr K post.

    Apologies.

    Great minds.

    Backing out the door…now…

  132. I so totally wasn’t going to participate in this, at all, until unbidden, my mind brought forth:

    Bring It On: On In 60 Seconds.

    Oh, you know it’s good. :)
