Turkeys Battle HUNGER GAMES Style for Presidential Turkey Pardon

View fullsize

Last year, during the annual Presidential pardon of a single turkey, President Obama cracked a joke that, for turkeys competing to stay off the Thanksgiving table, "It was, quite literally, the Hunger Games." The folks at Nerdist took the remark a step further and created this parody short called “Gobble Games.” If you rolled your eyes at Obama’s lame dad joke (you’ll hear plenty more just like it during Thanksgiving), you’ll likely roll your eyes at yet another Hunger Games parody. But don’t worry, this also spoofs scenes from some classic war movies.

“Gobble Games” was directed by Clinton Jones and stars Shelby Fero, Matt McCarthy, John Milhiser, Jessica Chobot, Kyle Clark, John Ungaro, Kyle Hill, Malik Forte, Ben Mekler, Jason Nguyen, Dan Casey, and Charles Ingram.
