Be Kind Rewind
A man (Black) whose brain becomes magnetized unintentionally destroys every tape in his friend's video store. In order to satisfy the store's most loyal renter, an aging woman with signs of dementia, the two men set out to remake the lost films, which include Back to the Future, The Lion King, and Robocop.

awful, just awful

While it's a stretch of a catalyst, the premise of remaking those films to satisfy the store's most loyal renter is a HILARIOUS premise.

Plus, written and directed by Gondry? I'm so there.

Frankly (and this is discounting what Gondry can do), this seems the sort of character that Jack Black plays in his sleep, so I'd rather someone with a little more range do it, but it would only take a little tweak on the JB stock to do it excellently.

I'm hoping that the Mr. Rooney that Paul Dinello plays is the one from Bueller.

...except that it's written and directed by Michel Gondry.

I'm not saying I have the highest of hopes--I'm not all that into Jack Black, and it isn't a great idea--but I'll see it as soon as humanly possible.

I mean the execution could be great but on paper it makes me wonder how something like this got greenlit

12/17/2006 2:32:25 AM

Nacho Libre grossed $80 million and you're wondering how somebody would greenlight 90 minutes of Jack Black mugging for the camera?

If I was a billionaire,

and Michel Gondry sent me a letter,

and all the letter said was,

"I have an idea for a movie,"

I'd send him back a check for fifty million dollars with a note attached reading,

"Have fun."

I actually think that's an awesome premise for a movie.

i thought rocky 5 sucked

If I were a billionaire,

and Michel Gondry sent me a letter,

and all the letter said was,

"I'd like a blowjob,"

I'd have fun.

To be honest, I'd do the same.

Here's an awesome one:

Quote :

"This is the action-packed tale of two buddies who race around Europe as part of an elite group who race in only the finest, highest-ticket cars available with Italian names that are legend. Ferrari. Maserati. Lambourghini. (There's also some non-Italians in the mix, like Aston-Martins.) Of course, there *has* to be more to the movie than just racing around Europe, right? Of course there is... the two pals are actually outlaws, using the underground racing marathon as a cover for a heist. Not just any heist, but that one big heist that all heist aficianados seek out, that big heist that will allow them to stop pulling off heists and spend the rest of their lives in luxury. You know, like the kind of luxury that allows you to race around Europe in Maseratis and Lambourghinis."

I had no idea you meant Jack Black

I just thought you meant it was going to be a black guy

12/18/2006 8:19:58 AM

^ yeah, as I was reading it I was thinking "what difference does it make that it's a black dude"

12/18/2006 11:39:55 AM

you closet racists you

though that line of reasoning is kinda funny from the outside

i found this surprisingly in depth review of "Cum in My Mouth I'll Spit It Back in Yours"



http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0407705/

Expecting "Cum in My Mouth I'll Spit It Back in Yours" to be a trite, meaningless romp in the overlooked genre of "snowballing films", I nevertheless sat down to watch this as part of my "24 Hours of Cum Extravaganza!!" Other movies featured were "Cum in My Ass Not in My Mouth", which I have reviewed elsewhere on IMDb, "Semen Sippers", and "Jizz Junkies"...but I digress.

Now, my overall expectations for "Cum in My Mouth I'll Spit It Back in Yours" were not unfounded, since at first glance, the title seems to sum up the main themes of the movie. Oh, sure...before watching this movie I had several burning questions to ask. Alright, well ONE burning question:

Why do I want a woman to spit my own cum back into my mouth? That kind of defeats the whole purpose of macho heterosexuality, does it not? I mean, certainly, I'm not going to stand around the water cooler the next day bragging about this to my co-workers. "Yeah, buddy. You may have done three girls last night, but guess what I did..."

Apparently, these fearless troopers don't mine "taking one for the team" in the fight for cinematic equality. (Though to be honest, I'm not sure which team they're on if you know what I mean.)

In short, this movie basically ended up being exactly what I expected it to be...a nearly three hour experiment in tedious and overbearing acting and cinematography that makes a third grade play look like "Lawrence of Arabia" in comparison. Of course, Mark Davis and Mickey G. can hardly be faulted, as even Robert De Niro would be thoroughly lost when director Mike Rubenstein explains his motivation for a scene. Although I did hear a rumor that Jon Dough prepared for his role by visiting several "underground establishments" in San Francisco. Those crazy method actors!!!

Seeing these gentlemen get their seminal fluid spat back at them is about as much of a turn on as seeing a Vietnamese transvestite named "Bang Bang Betty" dressed up as the purple Teletubbie having a three way with a donkey and my great grandma while Richard Simmons masturbates with butter and slowly pulls anal beads from his rectum. In other words, not very. Still, I guess it's better than having someone else's mayo on your face.

Far superior to this is "Cum Swapping Sluts" series of films. The same great snowballing acting you love, but without the dirty and awkward feeling of shame.

Ok, I could ignore Stan Smiths stupidity the other night when he decided he had make Taxi Driver rather than just going back to get Scorsese on pot again, but can I ignore that amount of stupidity for 2 hours?
