Hey, a Jay Baruchel movie opens the Slamdance Fest this year. Cool!

Wow, cool.

Here are some of the first stills from Speed Racer with Emile Hirsch.

I will say it looks unique and does remind me of the classic cartoon, but I'm not so sure of the helmet.

Yeah, the M on the helmet needs to be thicker. Everything else looks great though. Matthew Fox looks wonderful. They've been interviewing the cast on ET the last few days.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 12 Dec 07 :: 06:34

How 'bout projects featuring Chris's director/producers?

Wow, Matt Barry and Fred Durst...

Now, what are these guys doing hanging out?

domesticelefant · 12 Dec 07 :: 19:17

Maybe planning a new movie'? Hey, if so, make sure to hire Chris too!

TheCentralScrutinizer · 12 Dec 07 :: 19:18

Well, Matt did say he always tries to cast Chris in everything he does. And now Fred knows how wonderful he is too. Anything's possible.

I love Matt's shirt

TheCentralScrutinizer · 12 Dec 07 :: 23:23

Yep, it's cute.

BiggestChrisMarquetteFan · 13 Dec 07 :: 05:59

His shirt is really funny. ;P

Larry just posted a bulletin about one of Michael Welch's new movies, Lost Dream. The trailer looks great, I wish I could see the movie sooner rather than later:

It's an independent movie and it'll hopefully show at some film festivals next year. Let's hope they find a distributor soon.

Poster for Speed Racer.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 14 Dec 07 :: 18:44

I don't like it. They could've done a LOT better than that.

domesticelefant · 14 Dec 07 :: 19:40

I agree with Deb, that's one of the most horrible movie posters I've ever seen.
Michaels movie looks really good, I certainly will watch it if I have the chance to.

magicalturkey · 14 Dec 07 :: 21:17

Yeah, there's too many glares and not enough colors. And the text blends into the backround. Definatly wouldn't catch my attention if I randomly saw it somewhere.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 14 Dec 07 :: 22:12

The movie is very bright and vibrant and colorful, like a cartoon. So they do this dull, fuzzy poster? Lame.

Illinoisguy1 · 15 Dec 07 :: 00:26

Found out that the Speed Racer poster is lenticular. So that's likely why it's sort of fuzzy.

The only thing I really like about the poster is the Mach 5, otherwise it looks like a generic racing movie poster.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 15 Dec 07 :: 01:37

Oh, OK, that makes more sense. Too bad that effect can't be seen in just a pic of the poster. Maybe I'll see it in person tomorrow when I go see I Am Legend.

BiggestChrisMarquetteFan · 15 Dec 07 :: 09:08

I'm seeing the movie I AM Legend Saturday as well Deb. It looks like a really good movie!!

TheCentralScrutinizer · 15 Dec 07 :: 09:23

Yeah, it looks like quite a ride. I've been interested in the idea of a modern take on that story for years. And got even more excited when I found out Will was doing it. Ebert had good things to say, so that's a good sign. It has got me thinking a lot lately about the moody, solemn Vincent Price version, The Last Man On Earth. I saw that on cable a couple of years ago. It was weirdly fascinating, but terribly low-tech.

It also has me thinking about that book some guy wrote about what would happen to the planet if man just died out or disappeared. It's called The World Without Us: http://www.worldwithoutus.com/. Basically, it's how plants and animals would reclaim the Earth. You see some of that in the way New York is portrayed in the movie. I really wanna read that book.

BiggestChrisMarquetteFan · 15 Dec 07 :: 09:33

That book sounds good. I want to read it.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 18 Dec 07 :: 04:13

Becky's on K-Ville tonight! Woohoo!

BiggestChrisMarquetteFan · 18 Dec 07 :: 05:06

Sweet!! =]

She was reeeeeally different than we're used to. She was kind of a ho and a petty criminal. Her hair was very long and she had a tiny silver stud in her nose. Make-up all smudged. She didn't even sound like herself. Only two scenes, but really intense stuff.
