In Case You Forgot Who Wrote It: Difference between revisions

Line 140:

* ''Paul McCartney's Liverpool Oratorio.'' This is somewhere between types 3 and 4, actually, since Paul McCartney is both author and executive. He was ''one'' of the creators of this work, but he did have a collaborator. Since Paul couldn't read the music he was writing, he was afraid that people would think this piece was ghostwritten if he didn't put his name on it. Carl Davis, his collaborator, did not appreciate this title.

* [[Tyler Perry]] and anything he releases.

** ''[[The Onion]]'' did a parody of this with "[http://www.theonion.com/content/magazine/the_top_50_tyler_perry_movies Tyler Perry's Top 50 Tyler Perry films of 2007]."

* Despite the below-mentioned parody, ''[[Clive Barker's Jericho]]'' is actually a case of this... to a degree. He didn't actually write the code or anything, but he collaborated on development and is listed as "creator" in the credits.

* Blake Edwards did this with several of his films' onscreen credits from ''The Great Race'' onwards, as he often served as director, writer, ''and'' producer. He also named his 1980s production company Blake Edwards Entertainment.

=== Web Originals ===

* Parodied by ''[[Zero Punctuation]]'' in the review of "[http://www.escapistmagazine.com/articles/view/editorials/zeropunctuation/2633-Zero-Punctuation-Clive-Barker-s-Jericho Clive Barker's 'Clive Barker's Jericho' (by Clive Barker)]".

* Also parodied by John Solomon of ''[http://badwebcomics.blogspot.com/ Your Webcomic is Bad and You Should Feel Bad]'': over time, his references to Robert A. Howard's webcomic review site [http://tangent.panel2panel.com/ Tangents] have gotten increasingly unwieldy. For example: "Robert A. 'Tangents' Howard of Robert A. Howard's 'Tangents', by Robert A. Howard (featuring Robert A. Howard, of 'Tangents')".

* [[Old Man Murray]] was absolutely ''merciless'' to American McGee, going so far as to insinuate that he referred to everyday objects in this fashion (i.e. "Have you seen American McGee's my pen?")

* Similarily, ''[[The Demented Cartoon Movie]]'' opens with "Brian Kendall presents....A Brian Kendall production.....of a Brian Kendal film." Complete with drum beats between each part. Also, you have to watch it twice before you actually get on with the movie.
