06.30.08 MATTHEW FOX PROJECT SOUNDS QUEAH
We know from this interview that Matthew Fox from Lost is already great at being able to laugh at himself, and now it looks like he’s going to get some more practice. Today it’s being reported that he’s set to star in the totally not gay-sounding Warner Bros project, Billy Smoke.
The story centers on an elite hit man who’s nearly killed during a botched job and realizes that his only way to find redemption is to rid the world of all assassins.
The comicbook series, written by B. Clay Moore and illustrated by Eric Kim, will be published by Oni Press next year.
That’s right, another comicbook has been greenlit before it’s even been published. And with a name like Billy Smoke, I’m guessing he somehow rids the world of assassins through elaborate song and dance numbers. Or maybe he’s a tobacco ad from the 30s. In either case, I see myself not caring.

MATTHEW FOX PROJECT SOUNDS QUEAH
His tagline before he kills a victim is "you’ve just been cured and flavored by the particulate matter put into the air as a result of burning different types of wood"
Bill Smoke’s greatest nemesis? Those kids from the Truth ads.
Matthew: Those types of movies are not, like, my deal.
Pauly: Here’s the deal… I don’t give a ten-penny fuck about your moral conundrum, you meat-headed shit-sack… That’s pretty much the deal.
Billy Smoke’s rules for lovin’ are the same as Leon from the Professional’s for killing: No women, no children.
Any chance he can start with James McAvoy?
why so serious?
H’mm. "another comicbook has been greenlit before it’s even been published." So, anybody got any good ideas for a movie? I have. *cracks knuckles. blows dust off book where all my big ideas are scribbled. makes a cup of tea. gets
distracted again. crackin‘*Who? Is? This? Asshat? Again?
Billy’s career was hampered by having to wait for his victim at least 30 ft away from the building entrance.
Rot, he should come down here to NOLA. You just have to go outside the door. There’s no distance rule.
When I here the name Billy Smoke, I have the urge to say "spole"
Erswi, that should apply to urinating as well. Then again, I’m an idealist.
I think the only thing that would make this Billy Smoke character more believable is if he talks with a voice box and had a hole in his larynx.
Al, you little Canadian minx. Have I ever mentioned my cats are named Bob and Doug? (And if, as a Canadian, you don’t get that reference, we may have to rethink the possibility of our spawning).
so who won the batman blueray dvds?
Listen hoser, any Canadian worth her salt knows who Bob and Doug are.
(and yes, I’m responding to your comment in the nominations thread - I’m a rebel like that; I can’t be contained by a single thread)
I’m already preparing for the eventual rampage I’m going on when I see the tagline that reads "Where There’s Smoke, There’s Fire"
"Welcome to Flavor Country, bitch."
After I got back from the war, I developed a really bad drinking problem.
I was completely out of control until Serious Cat pulled me aside one day and said, very seriously "Humungous, you have a very serious drinking problem. You seriously need to get a handle on thi sbefore things get serious. I’m serious."
That was all the talking to I needed. I haven’t had a drop to drink since.
True story.
Thank you, Serious Cat!!!!111!
During his downtime, Billy Smoke performs in Key West with his cousin Buddy Pole.

BTW, has anyone seen my funny today, it’s gone missing.
It’s vacationing with mine, Peet. Hopefully, they’ll be back tomorrow.
Surgeon General’s Warning: Matthew Fox is a lying cunt snake.
This creates a problem now when I think about a certain Cheech & Chong movie.
