It’s too bad Danny Glover put his taint on this production.

I was actually looking forward to seeing it until I seen that commie a$$hole Glover was in it.

Mia Farrow and/or Danny Glover w/Jack Black: “Be Kind Rewind”
Jack Black and Lisa Bonet: “High Fidelity”
Lisa Bonet and Mickey Rourke: “Angel Heart”
Mickey Rourke and Kevin Bacon: “Diner”

(And that’s the best I can do at 4:23MT on a Saturday morning…)

I even like the bad Jack Black movies so I’ll see this one. Unfortunately Danny ( save Gary Grimes) Glover is in it, so I ‘ll have to wait a whole day to stream it online..
Bummer!

You dumb ass ! it’s Gary Graham!

Oh, so it is.

I guess it all depends on whether it’s been conceived simply as a vehicle for Jack Black to ham it up or if he’s here in the service of a larger concept, like Sandler in “Punch Drunk Love.”

Hmmm, I vote for: “a vehicle for Jack Black to ham it up”

It’s too bad Danny Glover put his taint on this production.

My first thought too.

Still….this looks better than 3/4 of the crap currently circulating in theatres.

Which is precisely the point, I guess.

BTW, I think Mos Def is becoming quite the good actor.

Makes me think this may end up being more interesting than a standard, if inspired, gimmick comedy.

I think so. Maybe something about citizen journalism narration – “sometimes the best stories are the ones we make up.”

This looks fantastic. I can’t wait to see it, and I generally don’t like Jack Black’s films.

Just doesn’t look Scottish to me.

Highbrow fare?

Freaking hilarious. YouTube gone crazy.

Freeking beat me too it.

P.S. Either that or someone was watching stuff over at TheForce.net and realized that half if not more, were better than the Lucas reimaginings.

P.P.S. That’s right, I called Lucas’s prequels reimaginings because they had nothing to do with IV-VI. NOTHING!

P.P.P.S. IV-VI looks like an lil anime guy.

That made me laugh out loud… Does that mean I’m evil?

I laugh at BE MY YOKO ONO (Barenaked Ladies song) too…maybe not.

As to the movie… Glover sealed it for me. Won’t PAY to see it.

Yes, I believe he is.

If only they had Ernie Hudson instead of Mos Def.

When I was a kid the video films to have were The Terminator, Robocop, Predator, Kick Boxer (to a much lesser extent), Rambo, and anything else with masses of guns and violence and blood. Also, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, YOU KNOW WHY.

Exit question: Is Black trying to look like Mark David Chapman or did it just shake out that way?

Well Black is trying to portray insanity, and Mark David Chapman had a clear shot at Yoko Ono and shot John instead.

he put his taint on countles bicycle seats as well.

WHEN WILL THE INHUMANITY EEENNNNNDDD!!!!!One

That would be the other kind of taint.
