We made some more commercials for Adam Reposa, Lawyer, TV Personality, Loud Person!


Here’s the first one, in case you ain’t been paying attention:

After the first one went crazy online, Adam Reposa became internet-famous.

All this exposure went to Repo’s unsuspecting head.   His cranium swelled like the Hindenburg.  Big as can be.  Also, some stuff happened that I don’t wanna talk about just yet.  But it does involve typical Hollywood douche baggery and some double-crossing.  Fun!

Anyway, in the middle of that douche-storm, Repo asked us to make another commercial.  Reposa’s idea for the new commercial was pretty hare-brained, IMHO.  The premise was to make a commercial addressing the recent ban of Big Gulps and large sodas in NYC.  Remember that?  It was news for about 1/2 a day.  We over at CCF felt that this commercial idea sucked.  People will forget about the Big Gulp ban as soon as the next dumb chunk of news comes tumbling down the mountain.  And also, where’s the crashing cars and breaking glass?  Lame.  But we’re cool, so we played along.  After shooting the commercial, more douche-baggery ensued as well as that double-cross I hinted at earlier.  We won’t get into it right now, but it may have affected Bob Ray’s ability to edit.

Drunk and exhausted from swimming upstream in the torrent of douche flow, Bob Ray overcame all and edited the new commercial like a champ.  Here it is:

Reposa didn’t like this version.  He asked us not to put it online.  Repo wanted it re-edited.  A few days later, and with Chad Holt (of Total Badass fame, and Reposa’s legal assistant now) as a middle-man, there was a bury-the-hatchet sort of moment where Bob Ray (being awesome and forgiving and stuff) agreed to re-cut the commercial.

Repo suggested some unwanted and unsolicited changes: “add the Star Spangled Banner,” “do more choppy editing, like the first one,” “make it less snobby and avant garde,” “have less cinematography,” etc.

Bob Ray and CrashCam Films thought those ideas sucked.

Anyway, here’s the revised version of the commercial:

So now everything’s cool.  Except that double-cross thing, that is.  That’s still not cool

Hey look, Repo recently landed on the local TV news.  Bob Ray is featured in the piece as “the unknown cameraman who makes Eastwood look so fine.”

More to come.  Or not.  Who knows?

A short film telling the whole story is in the can.  It’s tentatively titled “The Adam Reposa Saga.”

All good fun and games!

There’s been a new slew of Bob Ray / Adam Reposa related news of late. VICE Magazine ran an interview with Bob Ray last week and the Reposa-shit has been hitting the fan all over again. This pic has nothing to do with the interview… yet here it is.

Here’s the intro:

Adam Reposa: Lawyer, Lunatic

By Jonathan Smith

I hate to use unfair generalizations, but lawyers are, as a group, festering, money-grubbing piles of shit. Adam Reposa, a criminal defense attorney from Austin, Texas, is definitely in this category, but at least he’s got something of a sense of humor, as evidenced by this bizarre commercial that slapped the internet in its collective dick a couple of months ago:

The video was made by Bob Ray, the same guy who made Total Badass, a documentary about Chad Holt, a cocaine-addicted competitive guinea pig breeder and Adam Reposa’s legal assistant. Bob had intended the commercial to be just one small part of a much larger multi-part reality series on Reposa and Holt, but after its release a fancy-pants Hollywood producer shoved a TV contract in Reposa’s face, which he signed because again, the money-grubbing pile of shit thing. Bob and Chad were thrown under the bus. What followed was a retarded web of backstabbings, hurt feelings, a forthcoming Playboy feature, and a nonprofit organization called Drunk Drivers of Texas whose point remains an enigma. In an effort to better understand this idiotic and hilarious saga, I called up Bob for a chat.

The Adam Reposa Saga:

suff_banner_v1

Hey southerns, catch the good-times-fun that is Total Badass on Sunday, September 9. Go here: http://suff.com.au/2012/08/total-badass/

Here’s the Total Badass trailer for your enjoyment:

You can either watch this, or read all the shit following it (and also watch some clips).  Hell, you can do both if you like.  It’s America, after all.

We made some more commercials for Adam Reposa, Lawyer, American, Loud Person! Sort of, maybe… who knows what’s happening anymore.


Chad Holt (of Total Badass fame), Adam Reposa (real-life lawyer, and Chad’s lawyer in Total Badass (where he got Chad’s felony “possession of hash” charge knocked down to an “emitting a noxious odor” misdemeanor)) and Bob Ray (filmmaker: CrashCam Films, Hell on Wheels, Rock Opera, Total Badass , etc.) made a “wacky lawyer” commercial for The Law Offices of Adam Reposa.

Here it is, in case you ain’t been paying attention:

The commercial got internet-famous.

Mr. Reposa asked Bob Ray to make another commercial. Mr. Reposa’s idea for the new commercial is to address the recent ban of Big Gulps and other large sodas in NYC.

Bob Ray thought that this idea sucked.

Here is the commercial:

Mr. Reposa didn’t like this version.   

Mr. Reposa insisted on some changes: “make it more patriotic by adding the Star Spangled Banner,” “do more choppy editing, like the first one,” “make the message clear by making it more repetitive,” “make it less snobby and avant garde,” “have less cinematography,” etc.

Bob Ray thought those ideas sucked.

Anyway, here’s the revised commercial:

???

and since we mentioned it, here’s the Total Badass trailer:

F-U-n!

Hey look, we made a commercial for Adam “Bulletproof” Reposa.  You might remember Repo from Total Badass.  He’s the lawyer who gets Chad’s state-jail felony charge of hash possession knocked down to “emitting a noxious odor.”  Time served.  Done.

Anyway, here’s the commercial:

 

 

And here’s the trailer for Total Badass, just in case you forgot:
