THE RETURN OF RYAN FILL UP HEY
10.15.08This is the trailer for Franklyn, a British Sci-Fi film from first time writer-director Gerald McMorrow. Ryan Phillippe plays the lead role once slated for Ewan McGregor.
Franklyn follows four intertwining stories, three of which take place in contemporary London, the fourth in a parallel fantasy world called Meanwhile City. In Meanwhile City, atheist vigilante Jonathan Preest (Phillippe) fights against the various religious presences. Ultimately, his path crosses with three others (Eva Green, Sam Riley, Bernard Hill) from London.
Looks like it could be interesting, but let’s be honest, the bar’s pretty low for sci fi these days. No army of monkeys? No little kids driving race cars? F-ck it, sign me up. Also – you know you’re a real atheist when you spell your name “preest”.

Poop.
Ryan Phillippe almost replaced Ewan McGregor in The Island, but Michael Bay didn’t want to change the name to Pussy.
Ryan Phillippe, aka Marky Mark Light.
I guess what I’m trying to say is: Phillippe iiss aa ddoouucchheebbaagg.
You can tell it’s a real Klingon when you spell your name with a *’* instead of an *a*. :(
I’m not interested in anything this guy ever did, including Reese Witherspoon.
He is like a model. Real pretty, but dont talk.
I wonder if this movie is a metaphor for something that the really deep writers thought should be expressed through film that would ultimately change the world?
Also – you know you’re a real atheist when you spell your name “preest”.
They only went with that because the MPAA objected to their first choice, “Poop Beenadick.”
Wait, I thought it was ” meanwhile, back at the ranch…..”
“All atheists are axe-wielding murderers.”
The preceding message was furnished by the Republican National Committee.
“All Kahlessistic Theists are axe-wielding murderers.”
The preceding message was furnished by little known facts.
All Mexicans lie.
True story
“All Kahlessistic Theists are axe-
wieldingwound murderers.”Kahlessed!
Hey Pauly, aren’t you a Mex . . .
Waaaaaiiiiiiit a minute!
Hey it’s Franklyn. Coming over to play.
ttyni-QAPLAH!
Pauly, we know that’s not true…at least 10 of them dead hookers under His trailer are Mexican, and THEY DON’T LIE!
Fek, only 10? Do you need to borrow the BTK van for the weekend? She’s all gassed up for a change since the price dropped to under 3 bucks a gallon around here.
So, does this mean that a Preest would be interested in pedofeelya?
Meanwhile City is where all the narrators live.
They lie under your trailer, don’t they Fek?
I can’t wait until Preest says to the transdimensional bitch that is yelling at him “Shut that transdimensional cunts mouth or I’ll come over there and fuckstart her transdimensional head!” Then Benicio will mumble incoherently.
So, he fights religious presences? Watch out frankincense and myrrh. Phillipe is gonna kick your ass!
*puts on the duncecap
New Up!
When I’m taking a dump and someone calls me and asks me what I’m doing I tell them I’m in “Meanwhile City”
I’ll be in an alternate world during every screening of this hunk of doody. And by alternate world I of coarse mean this one. THEY’RE the aliens, man. THEY are. Not US. THEY are.
