No surprise, "Saw V" a hit with American filmgoers

The sheep are out to pasture and they're loving it -- expectedly so, might I add.

Yep, only the tween-friendly "High School Musical 3" could beat out "Saw V," one of the worst-reviewed movies of the year, for this weekend's top grossing spot.

The R-rated torturefest reportedly pulled in $30.5 million. Amazing.

Just for fun, I decided to make a MadLib version of "Saw VI," which will inevitably come out next year.

Unfortunately, the HTML for it is screwed up so I'll just paste my story instead. I think it has a chance making the screenplay. What do you think?

================================

MadLib:

It was 6 a.m. on a nasty autumn Saturday. Herbert begins to stir, finding a note attached to his/her shackled leg.

"Watch the tape."

The dazed person, though panicked, obliges and flips on the television.

"My word, how many canned hams are in this freezer?!", Herbert exclaims. It`s a surveillance tape of your friend, Col. Mortimer Putz! He/she finds him/herself in a dimly lit room. His/she is ice skating loudly.

A puppet appears on the monochrome surveillance screen and crafts.

"Sup boyz?," it says, only a few feet away from your friend.

"I`d like to play a game. You have attached to your jawbone a bear trap exerting enough pressure to snap iron bars in two. Above your right index finger is a Mario Lopez' autograph. You have 4,000 seconds to crump a 1961 Nolan Ryan Topps card to your scalp. If you fail to do so, your butt cheek will be shaved."

"Let the game begin," the doll said.
