02.12.09 I’M ALREADY TIRED OF THIS GUY
Disney’s remake of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, to be directed by McG, recently hired Justin Marks to re-write the script. Justin Marks, of course, is the hottest writer in Hollywood who no one’s heard of. So far he’s written the Street Fighter Movie, a script for a He-Man movie, a script for a Voltron movie, a script for a Green Arrow movie, and got hired earlier this year to adapt Hack/Slash - a comic book about a FEMALE ASSASSIN with EXPOSED PANTIES, whose title sounds like Nick Nolte’s to-do list.
Anyway, as /Film says, “Marks is well known in Hollywood as a screenwriter who gets the geek niche,” and continues to get work based on that perception. So really, the best thing for his career right now would be if none his movies ever came out.

So basically he’s the Uwe Boll of writing.
“30,000 Leagues” with Lorenzo Lamas > *
I would just like to apologize on behalf of everyone who teaches people how to read and, apparently worse, how to write. Obviously we need to rethink a few things.
Well, if he’s good enough to write about an assassin who distracts her foes by flashing upskirt shots, he’s certainly qualified to write about a rigid tube full of seamen.
I can think of 20,000 reasons to not see this.
Please let Kal Penn be Nemo!
Original Voltron or Voltron with the lions?
Really? Really? That’s your question? The guy who’s “good enough” to write He-Man, Street Figher, Hack/Slash and 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and you want to know whether the Voltron Force will be in lions or cars?
GOOD DAY SIR!
Fuck you Donk, I was just about to write something similar.
Ironically, the weight room in the Nautilus has a Bowflex in it.
You know, I always thought being a part of the geek niche was grounds for getting your ass kicked in the locker room at high school. When did Hollywood send out the memo that geeks were cool?
Disney’s remake of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea will be an animated feature about how fish bowl.
Crappy: wtf? Also, is that av from Total Recal?
Armor: did you just tell Donk to fuck off?
Drummond: Dude. Shut the fuck up.
*menacing looks all around*
Ha! Fish Bowl
Hack/Slash is the name of Gary Busey’s autobiography with bonus cookbook.
Screw this Nautilus bullshit, When are they going to get moving on the Seaquest DSV movie? I mean they already have a cast ready. They have a ….uhhh…captain? SHIT! Well, at least they still have that genius kid that talks to dolphins…uh…FUCK! Well, I’m sure the DeLuise boys would still be interested…
I’ll take Al’s exasperation and SS’s sympathy “HA!” because I totally deserved it.
Nope Al, it’s a pic of some jacked up lookin Punjab.

When asked to comment about the film, McG leapt several feet into the air, made an uppercut motion, and shouted “All you can!”
And I did Al, I was just about to make the Voltron comment.
No offense meant Donk.
A Slash/Hack would be an unqualified gyno, right? Like a Crack/quack is an incompetent proctologyst?
Seemed like a valid question too me?
If the Nautilus is as airtight as the plot then look for this to be a really short movie.
I right my name on my underwear, Justin Skidmarks.
Reporter: Have you ever ejaculated in a man’s anus?
McG: Just in Mark’s.
oh write, I get it.
