Hooks Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Michael Bay is remaking The Birds. Tippi Hedren is digging up her grave to roll in. Tippi Hedren appeared in a James Nguyen movie. I'm assuming she won't give a flying fuckola, especially if she gets offered a cameo of some sort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Let's all imagine ways this could go horribly wrong for Fowler. I'll start: From Variety: Insiders report that Warner Bros. insisted on replacing Colantoni with Rob Schneider. Future Blu Ray releases of the original series will make the same replacement digitally to match up better with the film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.T. Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Oh I see he's just producing it, and they found some dutch fellow to direct it. That takes the edge off. Diederik Van Rooijen directed that kickass Dutch thriller, Daylight, so I am actually somewhat stoked if he's getting a crack at The Birds. He's mostly worked on television shows, so long form may not be his thing, especially if he gets a huge budget that may overwhelm him. I imagine that Daylight will get some huge Hollywood makeover someday that will make it suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.K.o.S. Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 So, Enemy opens in theatres today, but I think it's only in the Toronto and NYC areas. I have some Very Important Points to make about that movie, but it needs to be exposed to a wider audience before I start blabbing about it. Maybe I'll go drag a friend to see it this weekend and then talk their ear off afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given that I'd have been around 13 at the time I don't remember much about it, but I doubt it was that good or anything more memorable than the standard syfy channel original.

nate Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Speaking of, has anyone seen this: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0109275/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_49 It's actually and Allan Smithee film!

Given that I'd have been around 13 at the time I don't remember much about it, but I doubt it was that good or anything more memorable than the standard syfy channel original. There's a scene where a family flees from the birds in a rowboat, and the boat flips over, so the family (being only slightly less than retarded) gets under the capsized boat to breathe the air pocket created. The birds (being smarter than the family) begin attacking the boat, puncturing its hull with their beaks. I sat back and watched the family staying under the capsized boat, hole after hole getting punched the fuck through the hull, and I said "BULLSHIT!" The second the first hole was made by a bird, the air holding the boat up would escape & the godDAMN BOAT WOULD SINK. I'm not one of these "movie goofs" assholes, but I do hate when shit happens in movies that takes me right out of the movie watching experience. Even a shitty film like Birds II.

RIPPA Posted March 18, 2014 Author Share Posted March 18, 2014 Chadwick Boseman has made a sneaky grab at "person who has played the most famous people ever" Jackie Robinson James Brown And he played Floyd Little in The Express. Floyd Little who is in the fucking Pro Football Hall of Fame and whose nickname was The Fucking Franchise (okay - I might have added the fucking part).

J.T. Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Yes, there is a joke in my family about how Chadwick Boseman, Terrence Howard, and Denzel Washington will eventually play every famous black man ever in history between the three actors. Boseman will be filmed in green screen debating himself if there ever is a WEB DuBois / Booker T Washington movie. Either that or Denzel will play one of the roles. Howard won't be considered because he will ask for too much money. Boseman has got eerie Christian Bale / Matthew McConaughey eqsue levels of ability to gain and shed weight. He can be rail thin as James Brown or diesel as Jackie Robinson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition, Valentin Narcisse from Boardwalk Empire is based on W.E.B. DuBois (although the UNIA affiliation would be Garvey). Just get him to do it.

He portrayed David Ruffin and Little Richard. He would (should) have been nominated for an Oscar for that David Ruffin portrayal if The Temptations wasn't a TV movie. "AIN'T NOBODY COMING TO SEE YOU, OTIS!" is still one of my favorite movie lines of all time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"AIN'T NOBODY COMING TO SEE YOU, OTIS!" is still one of my favorite movie lines of all time. Yeah, he is basically the only reason to watch that long fucking movie now. That and the "Papa was a Rolling Stone" sequence. "My name is David Ruffin.... and THESE are the Temptations" is one of the top 10 movie dick moments of all time. Since we're on the topic, both Ruffin and James Brown dated Tammi Terrell. Both beat the living shit out of Tammi Terrell. The Temps movie touched on that. I wonder if they do that with the James Brown movie since it's a major feature film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
