“The experience is rather like watching a very long, very expensive episode of PEE-WEE’S PLAYHOUSE that’s been co-directed by Terry Gilliam and Salvador Dali.”

it's going to be a massive hit, everyone loves the novel, Tautou and Duris.

they put the lumineers in the trailer just to fuck with us, right

Gad Elmaleh as Chick is great casting.

― Van Horn Street, Thursday, 25 April 2013 13:26 (thirteen years ago)

well it's gotta be better than his last few, right? maybe?

i choked on quirk

― akm, Thursday, 25 April 2013 13:50 (thirteen years ago)

actually I'll probably see it, looks fine.

I didn't realize gondry did the green hornet!

― akm, Thursday, 25 April 2013 13:51 (thirteen years ago)

Will watch anything with Tautou

― calstars, Thursday, 25 April 2013 14:06 (thirteen years ago)

looks pretty terrible. such a waste too. he could have used all of those gimmicky visual ideas to make a dozen cool music videos or commercials instead.

― wk, Thursday, 25 April 2013 17:30 (thirteen years ago)

it's a waste of a great novel's adaptation, first and foremost.

― Van Horn Street, Thursday, 25 April 2013 17:31 (thirteen years ago)

I didn't realize gondry did the green hornet!

I watched some of this and wouldn't have guessed it either... its a weird failure of a movie, Rogen is totally miscast/unbearable

WTF are The Lumineers doing in the trailer?!

― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 25 April 2013 17:38 (thirteen years ago)

Making you not want to see this.

― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 25 April 2013 17:45 (thirteen years ago)

least it looks like a proper gondry movie. green hornet was such a drag.

yuuuuuuk

it looks like every tumblr i hate

― set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 25 April 2013 19:34 (thirteen years ago)

it doesn't help that my superpretentious friend is repping embarrassingly hard for it already based on the trailer and I'm like, OF COURSE you like it u_u

― set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 25 April 2013 20:00 (thirteen years ago)

haha

― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 25 April 2013 20:01 (thirteen years ago)

like he said something like 'oh I love it when the French make movies like this'

SHUTUP SHUTUP SHUTUP SHUTUP

oh god, my optimism was entirely based on my mindset before watching the trailer. i still WANT this to be better than his last few but...yeah, he needs charlie kaufman. (does anybody rep for the science of sleep? i thought it was terrible but that's his last one i can see garnering some defenders.)

― ta-nehisi goatse (fadanuf4erybody), Thursday, 25 April 2013 20:21 (thirteen years ago)

loved science of sleep, enjoyed be kind rewind as well and obv love gondry in general but him plus tatou scares the hell out of me

― balls, Thursday, 25 April 2013 20:36 (thirteen years ago)

agree that he really needs Kaufmann (and vice versa - the two really compliment each other well, seems like each reigns in the others worst tendencies, Kaufmann towards navel-gazing self-loathing and Gondry towards empty cutesiness)

did you guys miss his documentary on his schoolteacher aunt? also he just did a neorealist film about teenagers in the Bronx, not sure if it played outside NYC yet.

I liked Be Kind Rewind alright.

I have avoided Tautou since her unspeakable breakthrough.

― Pope Rusty I (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 25 April 2013 20:51 (thirteen years ago)

the bronx teens movie is playing here now

― turds (Hungry4Ass), Thursday, 25 April 2013 20:58 (thirteen years ago)

fadanuf & shakey otm. want this to be good, but science of sleep doesn't bode well.

missed his documentary, and while i read about the bus ride film in the NYT, it hasn't played northern maine yet, so...

― contenderizer, Thursday, 25 April 2013 20:59 (thirteen years ago)

i stan hard for BKR

this new one looks like it could be a parody trailer tho

― infirm neophytic child (zachlyon), Thursday, 25 April 2013 21:17 (thirteen years ago)

I remember it being enjoyable enough but running out of steam towards the end. actual details of the movie seem to have completely evaporated from my memory otoh

― four Marxes plus four Obamas plus four Bin Ladens (Shakey Mo Collier), Thursday, 25 April 2013 21:18 (thirteen years ago)

lol the ending is the reason i love it
