Watch Chris Gethard and Bobby Moynihan Write the 'Alf' Movie

by | January 23rd, 2013

Here's comedian Chris Gethard's latest video as part of IFC's Adopt-A-Comic series, in which he and old friend Bobby Moynihan (SNL) work towards Gethard's goal of appearing in the upcoming Alf reboot movie. Gethard and Moynihan save the studio making the Alf movie a lot of time and money by basically writing the whole thing for them out loud, and they definitely deserve a cut of the massive profits if and when this Alf movie gets made – whether they're involved or not – because it's going to be hard to separate this Alf project from the pure artistic vision of the character they lay out in this video.

They're Making an 'ALF' Movie Because…?

What did you expect, Hollywood not to make an ALF movie? Sony has acquired the rights and is developing it to be a part CG-part live action feature. The man who spearheaded the piece of smurf Smurf movie, which made over $500 million worldwide (which is a terrifying fact), will oversee the whole thing with the show's original creator, making sure a real classic is made. No writer or director is attached yet. They're probably going to need all the gold on Melmac to convince someone to jump on this "hot" property.
