A dying piece of American is the Muffler Man: a fiberglass giant used as advertising (I’m not really sure what’s up with the underpants lady). I can understand their decline in use, amusing thought they are, but they have a kitschy 50s vibe and almost always look run-down, so I’d like to propose some indie filmmaker do a Muffler-Man-as-kaiju movie, like Cloverfield meets Moonrise Kingdom. Who wouldn’t watch that? Surely not everybody ever.
EDIT: dammit, wait, that was the plot of a Simpsons Halloween segment, never mind
