Alfonso Cuaron's "Gravity" was one of the highest grossing films of the year. Comedian Daniel Hubbard has given the film a new comic twist: in this hilarious parody trailer. Rather than setting the drama in space, this story is set in the endless aisles of an Ikea furniture store. The video makes fun of Ikea's confusing maps, swedish meatballs and generic furniture. The opening credits read "At over 346,000 square feet, there is no sense of direction, no silence, bad cell service. It's like way too big." As in space, "life in Ikea is impossible."
Comedians Alex Viola and Daniel Hubbard play the stranded pair. What begins as blissful domestic shopping bliss ends in disaster as the couple is separated. Much like the real-life "Gravity" star Sandra Bullock, Alex is spinning out of control, lost and alone in the huge terrifying world that can be an Ikea on a Saturday. Like George Clooney, Hubbard must guide her back to safety. However, in this version, he is a little bit less supportive - he ends up eating Swedish meatballs while Alex tries to find him.
The video has been incredibly popular and has gone totally viral. It's even received some translations!
