09.11.08 BRETT RATNER KNOWS WHAT HE’S DOING
Brett Ratner recently confirmed to E! that he’s still planning to team up with Eddie Murphy for the most fantastically shitty piece of shit in the history of shit Beverly Hills Cop 4. Ratner plans to bring back not only Axel Foley, but also the original theme song.
Composer-producer Harold Faltermeyer’s synth-pop theme will get an update, but not too much. “Why change that song?” Ratner says.
Exactly. In fact, why change anything? If Brett Ratner’s on the project nothing you do’s gonna matter much. Might as well go with whatever’s easiest.
Ratner goes so far as to say that one of the “biggest problems” with director Michael Mann’s movie adaptation of Miami Vice with Colin Farrell and Jamie Foxx in 2006 was the missing iconic theme song.
“I said to [Mann], ‘Why didn’t you have it?’ ” Ratner says. “He said, ‘We’re doing something new.’ [I said], ‘That’s like doing Mission Impossible without the theme song.’”
Don’t adjust your computer, you read that right. The guy who directed Money Talks really did try to give advice to the guy who did Last of the Mohicans. This reminds me of the time I followed Tiger Woods at the U.S. Open. “Hit the 5-iron, you faggot!” I’d scream.

BRETT RATNER KNOWS WHAT HE’S DOING
I’d hit Tigers five iron, after I hit his wood under the bleachers at the 18th.
I think Chris Matthews has some advice for Brett Ratner.
Banner pic cap:
Ratner sucks every last drop of creative talent out of small child turning him into an 8yo McGeez.
Of course, Ratner would really like to bring Bronson Pinchot back, since nowadays the theme song reminds poeple of crazy frogs.
No Judge Reinhold, no deal.
Ratner confuses small child for tranny
The Mighty Feklahr must say, Brett has an odd execution technique…
I said to [Mann], ‘Why didn’t you have it?’ ” Ratner says. “He said, ‘We’re doing something new.’ [I said], ‘That’s like doing Mission Impossible without the theme song.
Then Mann says “Who the fuck are you again? get me some coffee bitch.”
Death By Dumbass Cooties.
Ratner got kicked out of the theater during the opening sequence of The Dark Knight going ‘nanananananananananananana Batman!”
*chodin steps off welcomebus for soldiers, picks up the first black kid he can find and takes a picture holding him*
Brett Ratner told McG that the next Terminator movie should Linda Hamilton in it because he just finds her so damn sexy.
should have………… where the fuck is that Angry Burnsy at today?
Brett Ratner has the entire soundtrack to The Crying Game memorized.
Judge Reinhold desperately wants to be reached for comment.
For the love of God man, he just needs to feel the touch of another human…it’s been soooo looong…*breaks off sobbing.
BTK, I was channeling him, don’t try to touch me. Gahhh you all have jelly on your fingers. Blech.
I fully expect a certain Kinks song to be featured promonently.
It’s just so upsetting how close he is to that kids open mouth. I’m having trouble keeping lunch down.
There was a Beverly Hills Cop 3?
Ratner then continued with Mann, saying “…and another thing, what the fuck was up with Kilmer in ‘Heat’? You should have given him a shorter haircut. See, it’s shit like that, that keeps people from liking your movies.”
Brett Ratner? More like Butt Fatner.
Ratner has a few tips to give Spike Lee to help his Oscar chances, but Spike won’t return his phone calls.
Anyone else getting a bigger boner off the Burn After Reading ad’s then the snorg girl? ahhh me neither…
Ratner says. “He said, ‘We’re doing something new.’ [at which point Mann formed his hand into the shape of a gun, placed it to his own temple, "clicked" his thumb and then mouthed the words 'shut the fuck up' to Ratner.]
As long as they keep it believable (i.e. a Detroit cop would rather risk his life elsewhere than do his job in his home city), then I’m cool with this.
I wouldn’t even take advice from Ratner on “how to look fat and gay this season”.
