Rockstar advertises GTA4 trailer; we’ve reached the apex of meta

Recommended Videos

The above video was culled from a half hour long chunk of programming on the FX network (y’know, the one that brought you the violent, non-Commish Michael Chiklis). Apparently it’s a countdown to the premiere of the actual Grand Theft Auto IV trailer, and, predictably, the Internet is sporting an e-hardon the likes of which hasn’t been seen since that faux-Britney Spears hummer video a few months back.

I think we all need to step back for a moment and reiterate exactly what this is, before we all start actually understanding what the hell is going on in David Lynch movies; it’s a half hour long infomercial advertising an ad. Soon, we’re going to be having conversations about conversations we once had, while watching a reunion episode of Laverne and Shirley where Laverne and Shirley watch a reunion episode of Laverne and Shirley.

The end draws nigh.
