One project that has really slipped under the radar is Steven Soderbergh’s two-movie take on Che Guevara – The Argentine and The Guerilla, both starring Benicio Del Toro (who’s right up there with Forrest Whitaker as Idi Amin and Morgan Freeman as Mandela in the annals of obvious casting). They don’t have a distributor yet, so the release date is still uncertain, but today, this bootleg trailer for The Argentine hit the web. It’s all in Spanish without subtitles, but it looks pretty good. The language of squinting is universal.

I was hoping that Ricky the Dragon Steamboat would get the lead as Che.
Now how the fuck did some dude who’s just on a bunch of tee shirts gets a movie made about him?
"Here’s the trailer. Che-ck it out!"
This was a big hit at the MexiCannes film festival, which consisted of this and the talking chihuahua movie.
Hate to spoil it, but he dies. Yup, executed.

Three Four Che Che Che
I detected a lot of excess noise on the audio track. Guess the boom operator forgot to turn off his leaf blower.
Oh, guys, He didn’t get the dick sled joke. Can someone explain it to Him?

The theater showing this movie will be the perfect place to set-up my taco/burrito/tire/jewlery/check cashing/notary/carnicaria/Sonora-style hot dog/upholstery stand.
Know what’s good? Juaritos. They’re delicious. What the hell are we talking about again?
Its amusing that people worship Che as a Hero. Che has that great qoute.
"Use relentless hatred" to "impel us over and beyond the natural limitations of man"
What a great guy huh?
I use this mantra everytime I shoot an orphan.
Pauly, will you be having any oranges at this stand?
Or is that just a stereotype invented by the Jews?
Pauly, will you be having any oranges at this stand?
Just what the fuck do you take me for? Some kind of WETBACK?
MOISTBACK?
i’d like to see Jackie Chan star as Manuel from Fawlty Towers in Que?

Sorry. It was 4:20
And I’m listening to Metallica from the first album.

My favorite Che quote:
"Cuando puedas Fidel, puedes parar de comer mierda? Gracias."
Tell me that hot redheaded mess from x-files wasn’t good in LKoS. Fuck!
Idi Amin Dada out.
Wow, jet engines make for some cool abient background noise
My favorite Che quote:
"Peas pull farward to dee secund whendo…"
Chinese rockets slamming into the Che monument in Santa Clara make a nicer noise.
TW ????????? something about eating shit?
my spanish has gotten a bit rusty since I moved from LA
Will there be a dog in that last movie named Che Wow Wow? Cause I’ll kill myself right now.
I really respect what this guy did. I mean, growing your facial hair out like that? That’s got to get itchy as fuck.
Was Che Guevara is ‘Congo’ ?
Flav,
Close.
‘Comiendo mierda’ is literally eating shit but is ususally a reference to fucking around/ doing something stupid. So calling someone a ‘comemierda’ is a very Cuban way of calling someone an asshole.
So later comemierdas!
Speaking of respect…… I used to Nair my taint
"is" is the new "in"….so technically: "is" in the new "in".
chod,
I had cousins in the Cuban army in Mozambique/The Congo and Yemen.
Congolese.
I will not let you is me.
So wait, Che was a werewolf?!? Sweet
honey bun Che was not a Lycen……he was a Samoan lawyer with a
ravenous appetite for teenage girls
Johny…Is that Pete & Pete?!?
On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being a Lumber jack and 10 being a Richard Simmons/Clay Aiken butt baby, how gay is it that I want to look like Benicio Del Toro because I think he is the coolest looking guy on the planet?
