I don't know how many Mel Gibson fans will be opening up this thread, but you're going to get lots who are fans of pornography and/or Eddie Haskell.

this is supposedly a pretty good movie, but the studio's been sitting on it for a while for obvious reasons

you can tell the indieness is fake because it's still teal_and_orange.xls
― 40% chill and 100% negative (Tracer Hand), Thursday, 17 March 2011 10:51 (fourteen years ago)
Give it a few years, then teal_and_orange.xls will be a sign of wry ironic indie reappropriation.

So I'm seeing this tom'w. Hadn't realized Jodie is in the cast (obv I didn't watch trailer) -- and Jon Stewart and Terry Gross are playing themselves.

good review
― jeff, Sunday, 1 May 2011 22:07 (fourteen years ago)
i keep seeing previews for this and get a little resentful that i'm being asked to take it seriously
― goole, Sunday, 1 May 2011 22:08 (fourteen years ago)
Getting surprisingly respectful reviews, not just from Roeper and Rex Reed but G Kenny, Time Out NY etc.
But trust me.

Mel Gibson can go suck eggs.

Glenn Kenny's blog has a comment that makes sense: Bobcat Goldthwait might've known how to direct this.

Having seen Shakes the Clown (but not his most recent effort) that is a film I'd be willing to see.
― mh, Wednesday, 4 May 2011 18:02 (fourteen years ago)
okay so I was informed over the holiday that this film ends with Mel Gibson CHOPPING OFF HIS HAND

was a total "of course, duh" moment
― The Uncanny Frankie Valley (Shakey Mo Collier), Tuesday, 3 January 2012 17:57 (fourteen years ago)
tsk tsk, where is your spoiler sensitivity?
― Dr Morbois de Bologne (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 3 January 2012 18:00 (fourteen years ago)
Was his dialogue in the original Mayan for that scene?
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 3 January 2012 18:01 (fourteen years ago)
sorry for ruining this movie for you morbz
― The Uncanny Frankie Valley (Shakey Mo Collier), Tuesday, 3 January 2012 18:15 (fourteen years ago)
then again if you're going to a Mel movie and NOT expecting some mutilation/torture I dunno what to tell you
― The Uncanny Frankie Valley (Shakey Mo Collier), Tuesday, 3 January 2012 18:16 (fourteen years ago)
that is not the END of the film however. Everyone learns lessons.
― Dr Morbois de Bologne (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 3 January 2012 18:23 (fourteen years ago)
oh good
