Backbone shoots in front of the white screen, and they start working out special effects shots. This is such a high school production. The Jo(h)ns don’t seem to get that even stupid-looking effects require some complicated setups. There’s one shot in particular that Lil Jon wants, but it requires a green screen, which they don’t have.
Meat Loaf uses a lot of film terms that Marlee and especially Star don’t really understand. Star actually tries to sound smart and uses a term incorrectly, and Meat Loaf points out her error. They try to shoot Star, as an OnStar operator, talking about the product. It looks like the blooper reel – she can’t get through a sentence without tripping over her own words. Can you be a prima donna if you’re not really good at anything? Because that’s what Star is trying to pull here.
