Lightbulb joke thread...
post your faves... no matter how obscure.

Here are some lightbulbs, by department, on a film set:

How many Teamsters does it take to change a lightbulb?
Nine. You godda fuckin' problem wid dat?!

...Directors...?
None. That lightbulb was there when we started this project, and it'll be there when we wrap. Nobody changes the lightbulb, or I walk.

...Producers...?
Does it have to be a lightbulb?

...Production Managers...?
Why does it have to be a lightbulb?

...Propsmasters...?
Lightbulb? What lightbulb? The draft I got distinctly says 'loaf of bread'.

...Assistant Directors/Production Assistants...?
Uh, uh...I'm not sure...but I'll find out and get right back to you.

...Actors...?
One. He holds the lightbulb, and the rest of the world revolves around him.

...Extras...?
One, but he's only changing lightbulbs while he's waiting to get his demo CD back from the duplicators.

...Camera Assistants...?
Hey, that's our lightbulb. Don't touch it. Are you Camera? Then don't touch the Camera Lightbulb.

...Script writers...?
The lightbulb? No, you can't change the lightbulb--the lightbulb is the best part. You can't change the lightbulb. Seriously. If you change the lightbulb, I'm walking. I don't need this, I'm a creator. I may not have much, but I still have my integrity...

Grips?
"SMASH!"
