Famous R-Rated Movie Scenes Illustrated In Children’s Book Style

Josh Cooley, a story supervisor at Pixar Studios, has taken famous R-rated movie scenes like the Chest bursting scene from Aliens and the headless horse scene from The Godfather, and illustrated them in a parody children’s book for grown-ups. His book, Movies R Fun!: A Collection of Cinematic Classics for the Pre-(Film) School Cinephile, is available for preorder on Amazon for $10. Prints and Limited Edition Prints are also available at his website.

Let’s face it, reading sucks . . . but movies are fun! In this children’s picture book parody for grown-ups, Pixar writer and artist Josh Cooley presents the most hilariously inappropriate—that is, the best—scenes from contemporary classic films in an illustrated, for-early-readers style. Terrifying, sexy, and awesome scenes from such favorite films as Alien, Rosemary’s Baby, Fargo, Basic Instinct, Seven, The Silence of the Lambs, Apocalypse Now, The Shining, and many more are playfully illustrated and captioned to make reading fun and exciting for kids who never grew up. A sly celebration of the things fans love most about these legendary films (and movies in general), this is one book that probably should not be read at bedtime.
