Parodie / Parody Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Parodie / Parody:

After ten or twelve years you can only play something so long and then you start to parody it. Larry Hagman

To provide meaningful architecture is not to parody history but to articulate it.

Daniel Libeskind

I never consciously do any work directly influenced from any movie, unless I'm doing a parody.

Ted Rall

Even if you haven't seen 'The Seventh Seal,' you've seen it. The influence is so vast and insidious, every image of a black-robed, white-faced Death is a rip or parody of 'The Seventh Seal.'

Steve Erickson

My personal taste doesn't enter into it a lot when I make my decisions as to what to parody.

Al Yankovic

I think a lot of the time you just parody yourself.

Dylan Moran

Rap's conscious response to the poverty and oppression of U.S. blacks is like some hideous parody of sixties black pride.

David Foster Wallace

The Supreme Court has crafted doctrines such as 'fair use,' which permits copying materials for criticism, parody, and transformative uses, and has ruled that abstract ideas are not subject to copyright, because courts will not punish people for merely using an abstract concept in speech.

Marvin Ammori

You can parody almost anything.

Bruce McCall

We have to do a film parody for Comic Relief. We can't decide which film to parody at the moment. Any ideas welcome, but not Spiderman owing to costume being too tight.

Dawn French

All great reality shows have a very, very similar format. That's why it was so easy to parody.

Cat Deeley

It is old age, rather than death, that is to be contrasted with life. Old age is life's parody, whereas death transforms life into a destiny: in a way it preserves it by giving it the absolute dimension. Death does away with time.

Simone de Beauvoir

Memories of the last nine years have turned Ground Zero from a site of horror, to a reminder of grief, to an occasion for ludicrous artistic posturing - and now to something very close to parody.

John Podhoretz

I'd like to say that parody is a celebration of a person's specific characteristics, as opposed to mockery.

Ana Gasteyer

We live in an age that's very suspicious of preachy political rhetoric, which means that there's room for art that approaches these issues from the side - as satire, as parody, or as a kind of outlandish speculative proposition.

Jess Row

The first acting thing I ever did was my senior year I decided not to play a sport in the Spring and, in that Spring B.J. Novak who went to school with me, asked if I'd be in this show that was a parody of all the teachers in the school, 'sure!' That was the first acting thing I did.

John Krasinski

Whenever I do a parody it's not meant to make you hate anybody's music really.

Al Yankovic

There are a lot of songs that would ostensibly be a good candidate for parody, yet I can't think of a clever enough idea.

Al Yankovic

At this point I've got a bit of a track record. So people realize that when 'Weird Al' wants to go parody, it's not meant to make them look bad... it's meant to be a tribute.

Al Yankovic

A typical 'Larry King Live' is a pastiche whose absurdism defies parody. Wearing his trademark suspenders and purple shirts, he looks as if he's strapped to the chair with vertical seat belts, unable to eject.

James Wolcott

Or the Department of Education and another ministry were worried about duplication of effort, so what did they do? They set up two committees to look into duplication and neither knew what the other was up to. It really is a world beyond parody.

Rory Bremner

We live in a world in which whatever you do has a parody account online in moments.

Timothy Simons

I think to simply make fun of something isn't particularly interesting. I try to not just do a parody of something or belittle something or disparage something.

Mark Leyner

You can parody and make fun of almost anything, but that does not turn the universe into a caricature.

Bernard Berenson

I think there are barriers, but I think for me specifically, my barrier is being rejected from the kind of hip-hop elitists that think I'm not appropriating it, but just not serious about it. They think I'm a Lonely Island, Weird Al, you know - like a parody rapper. So that alienates me from a lot of things.

Awkwafina

I see parody as another form of comedy.

Bruce Campbell

Satire is a lesson, parody is a game.

Vladimir Nabokov

Parody is homage gone sour.

Brendan Gill

I parody myself every chance I get. I try to make fun of myself and let people know that I'm a human being, and these things that have happened to me are real. I'm not just some cartoon who exists and suddenly doesn't exist.

Gary Coleman

After ten or twelve years you can only play something so long and then you start to parody it.

Larry Hagman

How do you be a 45-year-old man in a rock band, do it well, keep your dignity and not become a parody of yourself? I don't think it will be simple.

Nate Mendel

I'm actually incapable of lying. I'm like a parody of a person who can't lie.

Busy Philipps

When I was a kid, back in the '40s, I was a voracious comic book reader. And at that time, there was a lot of patriotism in the comics. They were called things like 'All-American Comics' or 'Star-Spangled Comics' or things like that. I decided to do a logo that was a parody of those comics, with 'American' as the first word.

Harvey Pekar

If you aim for parody right off the bat and it misses, no offense to the filmmakers, but it is Meet the Spartans.

Adam McKay

With parody, you're referencing and sending up a particular genre, and mostly your material is going to be taken out of that genre.

Marlon Wayans

When I was young and it was someone's birthday, I didn't have the money to buy nice presents so I would take my mom's camera and make a movie parody for whoever's birthday it was. When I'd show it them, they'd die laughing. That reaction was a high for me, and I loved that feeling.

David Henrie

So that's why one of my rules of parody writing is that it's gotta be funny regardless of whether you know the source material. It has to work on its own merit.

Al Yankovic
