I think Baldsteve linked the picture last week but check out the trailer, not as bad as initially and fearfully predicted:

I predicted this to be awesome all the way. Spike Jonze, and looks like a lot of in-camera special effects, if any. That's always preferred with me.

Report

ffwoodycooks (March 26, 2009)

Spike Jonze is directing so i wasnt fearful at all.

Report

dlangl4 (March 26, 2009)

Like you said, it looks better than I expected.

On a side note, I never realized his name was Jonze not Jones. Has it always been like that?

so it was brought to my attention today that the farelly bros are making a Three Stooges movie? the cast: Jim Carrey, Benicio Del Toro, and Sean Penn...interesting cast.

Yeah, what the fuck is that all about? I don't even know how to think about that.

I hear it's not a biopic...that's good. I hear it's basically a Three Stooges movie directed by the Farelly Brothers...that's bad.

Report

ffwoodycooks (March 26, 2009)

i think it should be a biopic, especially with that cast (sans carrey)
farelly bros. should quit asap though

Preston (March 26, 2009)

I hate 99.9% of all Biopics...except Ed Wood.

Report

ffwoodycooks (March 26, 2009)

there are some exceptional ones, like raging bull, lawrence of arabia, elephant man, Mishima....those are the ones that come to mind

Report

Preston (March 26, 2009)

True those are all good (Maybe, it's Paul Schrader). I think the lesser known the subject, the better. Also, it's better if they are completely unrelated to the music/film/entertainment industry.

the recent Hunter Thompson biopic was really great as was Walk The Line. Also I'm Not There was pretty fucking exceptional too

i actually havent seen any of those but, ive been meaning too.

crackpotdemagogue (March 26, 2009)

yea, get on the case! i also recommend that you see Hunger - which is another biopic i seen recently. One of the most powerful films i think i've ever seen - and i've seen quite a few!

Report

ffwoodycooks (March 26, 2009)

Hunger was one of the best directorial debuts in recent memory.

Report

Preston (March 26, 2009)

Seriously? I thought it kinda sucked. The cinematography, editing and sound design were great, but the film didn't seem to work. Just turned into a sideshow there at the end.

Report

crackpotdemagogue (March 26, 2009)

that's a pretty stellar cast! if that is actually true then this film will be worth seeing. neither del toro or penn generally participate in a movie unless the script has relative merit. and the farrelly's are pretty high caliber. carrey on the other hand, seems to do anything these days if the price is right... but i still love him.

nocigar (March 26, 2009)

i completely agree. Penn and Benicio are two of my favorite actors by far

crackpotdemagogue (March 26, 2009)

totally man. also, talking of biopics did you see Into The Wild? (directed / screenplay by Penn) It fucking blew my mind. i loved that film.

In all fairness to her, she's just some random chick who started making music on a synthesizer in her room and posted the shit on myspace. Someone at Old Nav found it and they y used a few songs in some ads and she subsequently got a record deal and made a career out of it.

So while the music isn't very good, I guess it's got enough of a market for her to garner some success. If anything she's just a testament to how in this age of youtube and social networking any random nobody can get relatively famous.

She duets the last track on the new Silverstein album; I wasn't impressed.

A friend of mine showed me her myspace/pic about a couple years ago, I thought she was hot in that hipster/scene chick kind of way. I still stand by that opinion

You might be the only fag on here who would think of knocking a hot chick out when they get her alone BEFORE having sex with her.

Dude, you're way off here.

Lights signed to Underground Operations for Canadian distribution back in early 2008, and was picked up by Doghouse (a Warner subsidiary) later that year for American distribution after a bidding war.

Warner Brothers runs Doghouse - she's a Warner artist for America that was downstreamed to Doghouse at her own request.

Sometimes it takes more than a Google search to actually learn something.
