My 70 plus in-laws are happy to be eaten by dinosaurs and have experience as extras in New Orleans productions. Please call us.
I would love to be in your movie. It would be an honor to be chased and maybe even eaten by one of your giant man eaters. If you want to see a funny scared black person, well then I’m your man.
