(Hot damn, now that’s what I call a wild rumpus.)
Opening this weekend (trailers after the jump)
Where the Wild Things Are
Holy hell, am I hallucinating? Is this movie actually finally coming out? Excuse me while I jizz sperms of happiness. It’s getting sort of mixed reviews, but most of the negative ones seem to be coming from a-holes I never agree with anyway, like Lou Lumenick and Mick LaSalle (this guy liked First Knight and trashed Braveheart, yet still has a job). I won’t get to see it until probably Monday and I don’t want to be a bandwagon jumper, but with Spike Jonze, I say it’s awesome until proven otherwise. I can’t wait.
Black Dynamite
Another one from the hell-yeah-it’s-about-freakin-time files. Though I still think the ending is dumb, aside from that it’s the best parody movie I’ve seen since the Naked Guns. Michael Jai White is amazing. In Obama’s America, I just know black kids are going to be leaving the theater cheering “Right on, right on, right on.”
Paranormal Activity
Expanding wide because of near-universally good reviews, will be easily the most profitable film of the year. Why can’t this happen more often? Instead we usually get Couples Retreat, which everyone knew was bad from the beginning.
Law Abiding Citizen
If Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler are in a movie together and it was good, don’t you think we’d have heard a lot more about it? These people have seen it. I probably won’t.
The Stepfather
Ooh, a horror movie remake, this would be really exciting if I was 13. And a dumbass.
New York, I Love You
Oh boy, twelve filmmakers, one of whom is Brett Ratner, direct a love letter to the city that never stops bragging about itself. I imagine I’ll hate this as much as I hate people who say “only in New York!”, as much as I hated people in San Diego bragging about the weather. You people realize they say “only in ____” in every GD city, right? Except Irvine. Where the Wild Things Are
Black Dynamite
Paranormal Activity
Law Abiding Citizen
The Stepfather
New York I Love You
The book was my favorite when I was a kid, so I guess I’ll have to see The Stepfather.
Only on FilmDrunk.
What is a black guy doing starring in a movie called Law Abiding Citizen?
Looks like I picked the wrong week to refuse to go see a movie I’ve really been looking forward to for a long time.
Where the Wild Things Are is about lesbian furries?
Isn’t lesbian furries kinda redundant?
Well thanks to the internet I now know that “to yiff” is to have furry sex.
(Finally I have a name for it.)
WTWTA is the greatest movie ever seen by my own eyes.
I know where the wild things are.
*points to crotch*
I would see where the wild things are if I lost about 50 pounds.
*points to crotch again and cries*
This doofus saw Law Abiding Citizen as well: [www.frothyruminations.com]
/self-promotional hackery
// it sucked.
FACT
Mike Tyson gets frothys from Wenthees
Will gerard butler ever make another movie that I really want to see?
Irvine has more fake boobies per square mile than NY and San Diego COMBINED…
get it…per square mile…so combining NY and San Diego is not necessary…anyone? anyone?
*backs slowly out of room and closes the door*
i would be interested in Gerard Butler in the role of Benson. Because of irony, you see.
If you grew up with the “Where the Wild Things Are” book, you will be extremely tempted to say damn the hipsters and go buy one of the adult sized outfits after watching the movie.
It’s a film with amazing visuals that somehow makes big fuzzy imaginary monsters endearing and full of emotion.
Jones, Eggers, and everyone involved with this project deserve all the accolades the film industry can bestow upon them. Oh and the kid they got to play Max (also named Max) shows more acting talent than about 98% of actors in recent memory.
Good thing about living in Australia: our dollar is currently at 92 US cents.
Bad thing about living in Australia: WTWTA doesn’t open ’til December, even though we were kind enough to let you shoot it here 3 years ago, when our dollar was around 70 US cents.
That’s gratitude for ya!
At least you have a cricket team, and a good one at that. *dodges all the rotten fruit and vegetables thrown by other American filmdrunkards*
Would you believe that boasting about our cricket team doesn’t get us laid? Crazy, I know!
So, Jirish: my GF doesn’t want to see WTWTA in case it ruins her nostalgia. Should I crack her over the head with my bat and drag her to the cinema anyway?
I approve of this action.
Honestly I have great memories of acting out that play when I was in kindergarten and I loved the movie.
(I was Max, screw you all).
Tucker Max?
Another good thing about Australia: there’s NO WAY that IHOP Serves Beer In Hell movie will get released here.
Tell your gf to clean her stuff out of the closet, I’m moving in.
I bide my time until the inevitable crash of a nearby galaxy, which will unlock a dimension where “Tucker Dynamite: Black Stepfather” is a reality.
