After Boat Trip, just how bad would a movie have to be to be considered "lowering oneself"?
Snow Dogs.
Russ Tamblyn has had a very interesting career. He's also in the super cool JD film
High School Confidential.
In the late sixties he dropped out and painted and like that until Twin Peaks. I remember him guesting on the TV show Fame, where they used the 7 Brides clip as backstory on his character.
Where did the time go?
Kathy you weren't even alive when West Side Story came out.
Snow Dogs
was bad, but unless there's some Vault of Horror type movie with Cuba in it that Ed Wood directed posthumously, I don't think he's done anything worse than
Boat Trip.
I'd have paid good money to see
Catwoman
or
The Cat in the Hat
before shelling out ticket price toward that one.
And in
Laural Canyon
they also cast an American as a Brit.
Salon has an interesting piece on the Stepford Wife-ing of Katie Holmes. Public lobotomy: entertainment or abomination? Liz Smith does not approve!
Liz Smith? Pot. Kettle.
Or something.
It's hard for me to believe that there is anything in there but "Columnist Liz Smith", come to think of it.
Although if KH were my friend, I'd be freaked.
You know, the promo for the new movie about the Brothers Grimm is very odd. It's as if the Brothers Grimm were Watchers or something.
Maybe it's more a movie about a couple of people who happen to be called Grimm and are storycollecting brothers much like the Brothers Grimm in our universe, except that these guys are a team of demon hunters.
Sumi, are you watching 4400, too? I was just going to come in and post about the trailer.
Looked worth seeing, even apart from the pedigree.
I just saw it before
The Aristocrats,
and it was kind of weird.
As for
The Aristocrats
-- it made me feel more fondly to a great number of comedians. I've long figured Bob Saget's kids were worth bearing, and that Gilbert Godfried isn't as annoying as he looks, but this movie reminded me of other fondnesses.
It's a lot of laughing -- that in the same weekend as Crashers. But good laughing, even though I felt very self conscious leaving the theatre, like it'd be obvious from my face what sort of variations of the joke I was running through.
