Let’s face it. National Lampoon hasn’t produced anything good since may-be Christmas Vacation (and that’s debatable in most people’s minds). Well now the crew that made Animal House, and a bunch of recent bombs you wouldn’t reccognize have decided to spoof the sword-andsandal films with National Lampoon’s 301: The Legend of Awesomest Maximus Wallace Leonidas.

We wondered why a spoof comedy had not yet been made for all the huge action blockbusters. We asked, why Epic Movie instead decided to crack jokes at Willy Wonka and Borat.
