Holywooding It

To "Holywood it" means to lie, essentially, about something. The "it" is basically anything, usually movies or television shows. When you Holywood something, you basically over-proportionally saturated a story with exaggerations or lies in order to get the attention of people to turn into profit. The original story might have been real, however, when you Holywood it, you stretch the truth and make it into a lie. An example is basically any movie or TV show that was made from a story or real-life situation. An example of an "Holywooded" TV show is Paranormal Survivor, where the producers, animators, storyboard artists, etc. add in cliche ghost incidents and special effects. I don't doubt that the people being interviewed may have seen ghosts, but Paranormal Survivor makes the whole incident look cheesy. Another example of a "Holywooded" TV show is American Pickers where the cameras don't show the U-Haul trucks that carry the guys' stuff that they buy. The guys also never mention the other people that go out and find the places for them to "pick" (they don't really pick, the producers go to the place, scope it out, and tell Mike and Frank what is there, then Mike and Frank act surprised when they find something that they already know about). Additionally, Mike and Frank never do the actual finding of anything. When they get surprised about finding something, they are lying because the producers always scoped out that place.
