According to The Hollywood Reporter, Fox Searchlight is adapting a “dystopian tale” called Age of Rage. All they say about it is that it’s “Children of Men meets Lord of the Flies”, which is pretty much the stupidest comparison ever, considering Children of Men is about a world without children and Lord of the Flies is about a world without adults. Put them together and what do you get? Either a world that’s like the regular world or a story with no humans. Sounds thrilling.
Anyway, the project is going to be directed by Marc Webb, a music video director who did the Matisyahu video above. Here’s my point: watch this shit and tell me Matisyahu (aka Matthew Miller) and Andy Samberg’s “Ras-Trent” (video after the jump) aren’t the same f-cking guy. Buhda ding ding ding whooaa oh oh…

I can see the resemblance in the nose.
Why would anyone CHOOSE to listen to that?
Bloodclot, period.
Or a period-blood clot.
I’m sorry, which video is the parody again?
Pfft, Rasta was SO last season.
Matisyahu is like Ariel Sharon meets Snow.
Pfft, Rasta was SO last season.
Apparently this season it’s Orthodox Rasta.
Being a white Rasta is just an excuse for not showering.
This December Matisyahu is lighting another splif for each day of Jahnukkah.
So that’s how you spell mottis ya hoo. No wonder my synagogue never got a response. I’m a terrible fan club president.
Under Matthew Miller’s guidance, I’m considering changing my name to Donkiwoohu.
I had orthodox rasta last night with some pesto and vegetables.
When did the Amish start rapping? Does he use a wooden microphone?
Matisyahu buys all of his rum and coconuts wholesale.
You know what? Fuck what you guys think, but I would really enjoy fucking the new, chunky chick on SNL. I swear I can’t tell you why, but she gives me fever, for some fucking reason.
My Age of Rage was 13.
You can just see some Hollywood douchebag making that nonsense comparison over lunch followed by a celery enema. ‘See, it’s like Sound of Music meets Hardcore’. ‘It’s like Flinstones meets Saving Private Ryan’.
JHC, your prescription is clearly more cowbell.
You’re being very un-dude right now J. Go check out snorg and calm down.
To his credit, Matisyahu is the only singer in Reggae music today who’s father wasn’t Bob Marley.
Zach de la Rocha longs for the days of Rage.
And communism.
also, the Age of Rage
fuck
I thought Matisyahu was more Rabbi than Rasta
If this movie turns out to be about a bunch of sterile children, then my interest is waning fast.
I also thought Rabbi meant more than one rabbit.
Alright J. I’m doing some research to confirm your little obsession. Are you referring to Casey Wilson or Bobby Moynihan?
But Donk, if they’re sterile, then you can’t get them pr-nevermind.
I’d need to see a better picture of her without the natty dreds, J. In that video she looks like Kelly Osborne’s aunt.
Will hopefully be better than Michael Richard’s Rage on Stage
Or Martha Stewarts, Age of Beige.
I think Kristen Wiig is way hotter.
Why does every movie that deals with a dystopian future have to compare itself to Children of Men? I think it’s about time we start comparing dystopian futures to Duck Dodgers in the 24 1/2 century; that society clearly wasn’t working right. I mean, what kind of company sells a gun that’s only purpose is to disintegrate?
I’d like to see a movie about a bacteria hunter: Age of Phage.
How about the one about the glass ceiling faced by older workers: Age of Wage?
An angry spell-caster?: Rage of Mage
Wanna know how angry I am? Check out my Gauge of Rage.
Matisyahu thought “Bumbaclad” was Jamaican for Bumble bee.
My spices are expiring: Age of Sage.
I wrote my boss a nasty letter: Page of Rage.
J, I do believe I’ve already said I’d bone the chunky chick whose name I’m too lazy to learn.
You know what? Fuck what you guys think, but I would really enjoy fucking the new, chunky chick on SNL. I swear I can’t tell you why, but she gives me fever, for some fucking reason.
There was a time when Alex Borstein had me confused in a similar way. Maybe it was Miss Swan…
God damnit Donk, I walk away for 2 minutes to actually do work while I’m at work and steal 3 of my ideas.
The exploits of my trip from North Africa to Europe: Carthage to The Hague.
Most Jamaicans I’ve met have a problem with Age of Consent.
A movie about some time in the future, but I can’t tell you when: Age of Vague.
Dehydrated? Gatorade.
Motorhead biopic: The Ace of Spades.
I am L337 H4XX0RZ: Age of Pwnage.
The finish on my door hardware has completely faded. Maybe it’s under warranty. I have to verify the Age of my Schlage.
Wesley Snipes biopic: The Spade of Blade
If anyone gets that, you need to spend less time at Home Depot.
When our favorite giant-foreheaded actor turned 18 he became a Cage of Age.
Let me be clear. I would have sex with Kristen Wiig over and over. She’s funny and good looking. Bobby Moynihan just has some sort of “drunken, one night stand, best sex ever” thang. Ya know?
Oh, I was looking at Casey Wilson. She’s kinda cute in that “I’m a little chubby and really insecure so sure I’ll go around the world just don’t dump me for my skinny friend” kind of way.
Yeah, if you’re into that sort of thing, Peet. Shit…
*kicks self in nuts for not verifying who’s who on SNL*
When I got promoted to manager of the Dollar Store, I got a Raise of Wage
You’re definitely thinking of Casey Wilson and not Bobby Moynihan. Bobby is a guy who looks like Stifler and Artie Lange had an ass baby.
Casey Wilson looks like she gives mean head. She looks like the girl who would be most willing to go home with me after a cast party. I thrive on desperation.
Having sex with Bobby Moynihan would be like having sex with Horatio Sans. Wait…ummm….
HEY! LOOK UP THERE! IT’S A UFO!!
*runs off*
Guess I just don’t dig on pug noses. I would also like to hit Melanie Hutsell right in the middle of the forehead with a blackjack.
Did they ever find a successful vehicle for Ellen Cleghorn?
I think execs just do. They throw out comparisons that make no sense. Then everyone just nods not wanting to be the one in the room who doesn’t get it. “Children of Men meets Lord of the flies, or Gleaming the Cube meets Rollerball… what we have here is a sort of Requiem for a Dream meets The Gods Must be Crazy…. I hate yes men….
Yes, it was a bus.
FUCK!
*execs just do that*
Word to your Bubbe.
They found a vehicle for Danitra Vance too, except hers was a hearse.
…too soon?
“Age of Rage” sounds like a crappy NES game that people only bought because it had an awesome picture of a knight fighting a dragon on the box cover.
