Auteur of the century Brett Ratner is attached to Harbinger, a comic book series whose movie rights were recently bought by Paramount. Another comic book series, you say, my, it must be mighty original…
Harbingers are humans with powers that can be unlocked by "omega" harbingers. Teenager Pete Stanchek finds himself on a collision course with an older "omega" who used his gifts to become an evil industrialist.
Awesome – sounds nothing like X-Men!
"The movie is in the vein of a young ‘Blade Runner,’ as this 17-year-old gifted kid helps other kids tap into these parts of their brains," [Co-producer Alexandra] Milchan said.
"It’s also very similar to Lord of the Rings, The Matrix, Fight Club, and other things I’m told 18-35-year-old males enjoy," added Milchan.
Ratner, who directed "X-Men: The Last Stand," was looking for an opportunity to start a superhero franchise from scratch. [Variety]
Wait, isn’t based on a comic book? Perhaps their definition of "from scratch" differs from mine. As did their definition of "menagerie". It was a game of Scrabble best described as contentious.

I had never actually seen what this fucktard looks like. Douche.
who used his gifts to become an evil industrialist
Like Orville Redenbacher? He’s evil for getting popcorn stuck in my teeth.
Much like this Harbinger project, Brett Ratner is also attached to another guy’s penis.
and for making that shitty style of tie popular.
Auteur of the century Brett Ratner…
Either someone’s been using his ‘Word of the Day’ calendar, or we should all be screaming because we heard the ‘secret word’.
Are those Brett’s “fuck me” eyes, or his “the top half of my head is too fat for the bottom half” eyes?
Gahhh he’s so freaking repugnant. I just, I just blahhhh I go now.
Douche’ Lord Assington you win this round
Are you sure that’s not a pic of a "hip" substitute teacher? You know, the kind that dress less "adult" so you don’t throw things at them in class, knowing they have little to no recrouse if you do. Except to expose you to adult images on their computer screen when you come in early from lunch. What was I talking about again?
fucking work keeping me busy
globo de jenkem vacio :(
Either someone’s been using his ‘Word of the Day’ calendar, or we should all be screaming because we heard the ‘secret word’.
Find me another word that means "Serious Highbrow Director". It’s a lot in a small package – much like my pitch to potential lovers.
I think Brett needs to start attending film festivals sponsored by the ‘vegetable group’ of the food pyramid.
He looks like a full sized midget.
Find me another word that means "Serious Highbrow Director".
Stanley Douche-dick?
Find me another word that means "Serious Highbrow Director".
Don’t get me wrong, Mr. Lipton – I like the word. I just haven’t heard/read it in years until today. Twice.
I’d like to give Brett Ratner AIDS so I can start his death from a scratch.
Serious Highbrow Director? I must be in the wrong thread. In which one are we bashing on Brett Rattner please?
It looks like he has on old people New Balances. I see laces, but I have this sneaky suspicion they have velcro straps under.
Garbage Movie!
Double-word-score!
"Serious Highbrow Director"
Martin Scorcese
wait for it……
I plan on using "Wait For It…" after all spoken sentences with clients now – just to hear the panicked confusion.
Scorsese
empty readi-whip can :-(
I thought you were going to crack ass there , JHC.
Stop it JHC, you’re hurting me.
"No problem – we’ll need to temper those windows. Wait for it…"
Lance, I think the word you were looking for is "autistic." Sounds similar, but it’s the difference between watching The Godfather and having someone wipe their own shit in your hair.
Brett looks like he’s wearing frameless “my eyes are open” glasses.
I refuse to wait for it! I want it now!
Stoney, I like to wave my hands like I’m doing sign language now whenever I talk to someone from another office in my building.
Brett looks like he’s been shooting his movies on ‘fruit by the foot’ and then eating the dailies.
Eib, I’ve always wanted to hear that from a woman. Speaking in my head in the voice of a disembodied bug-eyed zombie avatar. That’s so hot.
There you go Erswi.
Brett looks like he still has Serena’s pubes on his face.
Look at it: even Brett’s shadow doesn’t want to be seen with him.
I don’t know what to bash on more, the fact that a dude sucked his dick, orthe fact he directed the "Nuttin’ But Love" video for Heavy D and the Boyz.
By the way, it should be legal to beat Ratner’s little
flufferco-producer with a bag of broken glass and used syringe needles for even uttering the words "Blade Runner."I hear he likes cabbage. I read about it over at ratnerlikescabbage.com.
Are his legs long enough to have knees or does he goose-step everywhere?
I got nuthin but love for you baby! That’s right.
I got nuthin but love for you baby! That’s right.
woo, I have to type with one hand now
Ok, so Brett stuck his dick in Lilo? And a lot of other skanky/strange bitches? No wonder he looks like shit, he’s waiting for the test results.
Brett Ratner ‘auteur" stop making movies.
Whoa whoa whoa!!! I apparently missed something! You guys are serious that this fat little bastard got blown by a dude? If that’s the case, Stan Lee must not have known this little fact before he let Ratner direct one of Marvel’s movies.
::JHC’s coworker leans over and wispers in his ear::
Fuck. I forgot he let Singer direct the first two. Nevermind.
The ‘neckershief’ is hiding his boner, and the fact that his rubbing it through his pockets.
That blue scarf really brings out the coke in his eyes.
Jack, you punster. That made me laugh
Ratner’s looking a little heavy. maybe he ought to stop harbinging, and start harpurging.
There’s always lots to see and do at a Ratner Movie!
That’s not a scarf, it’s a tablecloth.
He had his first blow job from a dude, than again from a dude named Serena.
Attention filmdrunkards: please do not see ‘Harbinger’ in the greater Los Angeles area.
I repeat: Fools are getting stabbed at screenings of ‘Harbinger’ in the greater Los Angeles area.
I wouldn’t even fuck Brett Ratner with Iron Man’s dick.
I’d rather see Brett Ratner covered by a blig black sheet with only his eyes showing. I guess I’ll have to wait for the Triburqa Film Festival to see that.
Off topic, is it okay to kill someone for eating baby carrots too close to your ears?
On topic – Ratner did some God awful public access looking ads for NY Film Academy. Never heard someone name drop in a commercial. He’s such a supreme ass. I would let him clean my toilet.
WOULDN’T LET HIM!!! NOT WOULD OHHH SHIT, NOW I’VE GIVEN HIM A WAY IN HE’S NEVER GOING TO LEAVE. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
So it’s the story of older special people helping children unlock their secret, inner powers?
That’s exactly what I told the judge and I’m still not allowed within 500 yards of a school. No wonder Brett Ratner is directing this.
Instead of Serena, perhaps next time he’ll Tribeca.
Your young. Your hip. You have millions of dollars and lots of fans.
AND YOUR WEARING FUCKING SKETCHERS!!!!!!!
YOU ARE NOT AN ARTIST!!!!
PUT ON SOME DECENT CLOTHES!!!!
I FUCKING HATE YOU MOM!!!!
The
BECA
LM
VAL
sounds like a cool place to be though.
MON BLAN
should read MAN BLON
Brett Ratner is the only millionaire I’ve ever felt sorry for; ever. You know he really wants to do good, but he’s just untalented. LOSER!
CNN is reporting that 1 in 4 teenage girls have STDs. Does STD stand for sucked the dick?
Cuz I think when I was in highschool the ratio would have been 1 in not on your fucking life you loser.
Oh, that’s good, because I’ve only ever been in 3 teenage girls.
No Standards. Yes STDs.
I kinda hope all teenagers get STDs and die. There I go being a hopeless romantic again.
Brett Ratner is an actual incubus. "The incubus drains energy from the woman on whom it performs sexual intercourse in order to sustain itself, and some sources indicate that it may be identified by its unnaturally cold penis" Wiki said it, not me.
The Mighty Fek’lhr heard that Bret Ratner cares about the environment. Bret showed this at a recent press-conference by microwaving tofurkey to use as a fifi (instead of a Hot Pocket or a Hungry Man meal).
Brett Ratner is beneath my contempt. Also beneath my belly button. How the fuck can he direct a movie when he can’t even get up to look into the camera? He does all his shots from that moving along the floor angle doesn’t he?
I’d rather see Brett Ratner covered by a big black sheet with only his eyes showing. I guess I’ll have to wait for the Triburqa Film Festival to see that.
Which he will have to cut a hole in, to get blown by another dude…
Would it kill the guy to put on a fresh pair of Wranglers ‘Relaxed Fit’ jeans. Those look like he’s sleeping in a bus station.
Apparently, the guy that blew Ratner was underage. This, according to wikipedophile.
Im having the worst day.
Im pretty much ready to kill everyone.
Luch, how long would it take for you to make the drive to N.O.? My ex-girlfriend lives at 247 . . . ya know . . . we’ll talk about it when you get here.
chilly willy chilly willy
I’m glad I don’t live in Buffalo.
I take that back. I’d like to live anywhere other than Nebraska.
empty corn field :-\
I think Michelle has gone ’round the bend. She’s been a little off all day. I like it. Don’t get me wrong.
I drove through Nebraska once. I now understand killing sprees.
Corn in my shit is the closest I’ve been to Nebraska
Boop
I was just in NO last week.
Nice Marriott.
Nebraska smells better than Iowa though.
I was NU last week
Nebraska also smells better than Waldwick, NJ.
Im in YES today.
I was in NO a couple years ago at an orhtopedic surgeons conference, the marriott had all closed circuit tvs showing total hip and knee replacement surgery HOLY MOTHER OF GOD it was awesome.
True story: A telemarketer calls me trying to sell some shit. I don’t even recall what they were selling. (I happened to be watching a riveting episode of Antiques Roadshow while the phone call was taking place.) Anyway, they start asking me if my address information is correct and they get to Lincoln and I say "yeah". She then asks and I quote, "N,E, does that stand for New England?". I have to say I almost shit myself from laughing and she actually hung up on me.
Luch got my day from yesterday! QAPLAH!
GRRR…TOFURKEY!
Michelle is an orthopedic surgeon? That frightens me.
TURDUCKEN!!
Only as a hobbyist (I used to work in graphic design and was there w/ a
Johnclient)I guess I’m not the only one who brings my own toilet along with me everywhere.
I wanna see Brett mount a high wheel bike, then get that stupid ‘neckerchief’ caught in the spokes.
At convention, John pee on you…errr wait…maybe I did go ’round da bend. I really need a nap.
Only as a hobbyist (I used to work in graphic design and was there w/ a
Johnclient)Before I got paid to translate French into English, I used to read maps for a living. Those are coordinates.
Was your client Elliot Spitzer?
Wait! Luch, you were in N.O. and didn’t holla? You son of a bitch.
Pauly, is your avatar Bill aka Mad Dog or Lance aka Scorpion?
Jack, whassa diffrence?
It’s Scorpion.
New post potstickers.
Stoney insouciantly shares: Before I got paid to translate French into English, I used to read maps for a living.
That must be why I keep carving your likeness in my shaving cream and mashed potatoes.
Thanks for picking up that dropped ball…
I am just wondering if this guy is still a single? I saw his personal ad with many photos at a beautiful site named Richromances.com. He looks great over there.
I don’t know how to express my hatred of X3. It’s like watching a baby die, except instead of being funny, or justified, it felt like I was watching improbable and awfully scripted, directed, filmed and edited situations occur in celluloid form. It’s the New Coke of movie sequels. I wanted to rip out my own eyes and then rip out the eyes of the people on either side of me. I didn’t even want to throw the eyes at the screen, I wanted to squish them in my hands if only to have a sensation that was different from X3iness. *breathes*
Give up.
