Is Rewind Unkind to Bynes? No Way, Right?
First, check out this video rant that just posted over on YouTube. Now, it is possible that Be Kind Rewind director Michel Gondry was a huge fan of Amanda Bynes' Nickelodeon sketch show, The Amanda Show. It is possible he has watched every single episode at least a dozen times. It is also possible he has never heard of Bynes or her show and that this video—which has a very similar conceit to the Jack Black flick out this week—is merely a coincidence, something Bynes and Gondry will laugh about when they meet up at Starbucks and wind up hanging out for hours.
(A request for comment from New Line was not immediately returned.)
Yep, anything really is possible. But I think this is just a coincidence. I mean, come on. This is Gondry, the guy who made Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. And Be Kind is so personal that it just can't be a rip-off. But conspiracy theories are fun. Maybe it's possible that this YouTuber has cracked the Secret Bynes Code of Hollywood, wherein all modern films can be traced back to a sketch from the '90s. Hee-hee. What do you think?
