Mean Magazine has created a new series of online short films called CineMash, which lets celebrity talent mash up their favorite scenes from classic movies. The first is a recreation of a scene from Sid and Nancy starring Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt and directed by Marc Webb (the director of 500 Days of Summer). Did I mention that Joe plays Nancy and Zooey plays Sid? Watch the clip after the jump, followed by a listing of future Cinemash episodes.

  • Awesome.
    Christopher Mintz-Plasse as Detective Alonzo Harris.
  • "You wanna go home or you wanna go to jail, playa? Chicka-chicka-yeah!"
  • Mike
    I remember this being in the '500 Days of Summer' trailer.
    haha, jgl: "So I'm Sid Vicious?"
  • Zooey>Oldman

    nah, j/k but that was fantastic. Truly funny and fantastic.

    Very much looking to Arnett's Carrie, and McLovin's Training Day.
  • Mike
    Arnette Carries is great. I've seen it since I worked on it.
  • lolz
    Why does Zoey speak with an Australian accent.
  • It's meant to be british but she sucks.
  • Mike
    booooo
  • jules
    doesn't even sound australian
  • bgordes
    As an Australian, that was a very British accent. Not Australian at all.
  • awesome. i can't wait for point break!
  • dagreenman18
    I fuckingt love the fact that they didn't do a damn thing to JGL except a wig and a sweater. Priceless.

    Also, Zoey in drag reminds me of jared Leto for some reason.
  • Channing Tatum and Charlyne Yi as love interests could be brilliant. The point Break cinemash should be great.
    Not to sure about Peter Petrelli doing Oldboy, I love that film and do not like him.
  • that was great, this is a killer project.
  • I am interested in all of these.
  • Sketch
    I liked the switcheroo but that's about it. I can't wait to see the rest though!
  • Rick
    Finally someone posted something that makes sense. Agree wholeheartedly. It was not awesome, brilliant or genius.
  • keicharones
    Oh man! I wish I could do stuff like this for a living.
  • Anrkist
    Please say you will be posting all of them.
  • Palmer
    Oh man, that was pretty clever. It'd be great if it was going to be on the DVD for (500) Days of Summer, when the time comes of course. Can't wait for the Training Day one.
  • MarkTheseWords
    LOL that was great
  • Set the date: July 21
  • theAguilar
    "We've been like Sid and Nancy for months now."
    "We have some disagreements but I hardly think I'm Sid Vicious"
    "Noooo, I'm Sid."
    "..Oh, so I'm Nancy."

    It's so great that they did this. I love her, even as Sid Vicious.
  • Sockin
    Such a great movie as well, JGL is definitely like the girl in their relationship.
  • theAguilar
    I am looking so forward to seeing it 3 days before the official release date. Haven't had a chance to see (500) Days of Summer yet, but it certainly has the best chance out of any movie this year to be my favorite of 2009. That's the only advance screening in my state too.

    Sidenote: Does anybody know an appropriate time to show for the screening? How many hours before is safe?
  • MickJ
    "Common and Christopher Mintz-Plasse cinemash TRAINING DAY"

    Truly saving the best for last. This is going to be outstanding.
  • darren
    oh jesus. i'm already cringing at Milo Ventimiglia doing Oldboy.
  • Guest
    Nobody comments on Cheech and Chong and... Tron????

    Maybe it's too bizarre for the mind to comprehend.
  • super_aj
    That was awesome. I love how the second half is word for word from 500 days of summer. brilliant.
  • TheMarquis
    I love it when filmmakers just let loose and have fun on projects like these. I'm very much looking forward to the rest of the release schedule.
  • this is amazing and genius
  • Rick
    What's with throwing around words like amazing & genius? Do you know what they actually mean? You should be banned from watching movies forever.
  • Tap Zepol
    Wow...Joseph's portrayal actually made me sympathize with Nancy.
  • ake
    THIS IS SO GOOD
  • Danos
    The weedy bloke from Heroes doing Oldboy is worse than Smith/Spielberg.

    Looking forward to McLovin slapping his chest and spitting out "King Kong aint got SH*T on me!!"

    And the Point Break is gonna be epic. Can't wait to see BG with a Swayze mullet.
  • haha brilliant!
  • Rick
    Why was it 'brilliant'? In the same way as something like Epic Movie i suppose?
  • Rick
    Why does everyone here agree with everything? Are you all sheep? Not everything is 'totally awseome man'. This was great in theory but a PISS WEAK end result for this first one. Hopefully the others are actually good.
  • Al
    i thought it was hilarious, before i read all the comments (including the like 800 million of you playa hatin). so maybe all these people actually have their own opinions. don't be such a dick.
  • Rick
    Three. But way to exaggerate. You thought it was hilarious too i see. Well good for you and the 1000 other sheeple.
  • Berto
    this has to be the highlight of my day, and my day just started. AWESOME. I cant wait for the other ones to come out. I'm telling everyone about this.
  • I cant wait for the Xavier guys to do this!
  • 0scarsky
    tanked!
  • Josepg Gordon-Levitt is awesome!!
    I can't wait to see this film and G.I. Jo - he's the only reason I'm going to watch that film
  • Michelle Robertson
    well she's no Gary Oldman, but that's nothing new. At least JGL puts some acting into his acting.
  • annie
    She honestly looks like Sid Vicious ! It's great !
