04.08.09 BRODY & RUFFALO ARE A COUPLE OF WEISZ GUYS
If you see one movie with bowler hats this summer… make it Sherlock Holmes. But if you see two…
…Yeah, so that’s just about the gayest headline pun I’ve ever written. Anyway, after the jump I’ve got the trailer for The Brothers Bloom - starring Adrien Brody, Mark Ruffalo, and Rachel Weisz - director Rian Johnson’s follow up to Brick (which I never saw but am told is good). It basically looks like Oceans 11 meets Dirty Rotten Scoundrels as directed by Wes Anderson. Oh my gosh, aren’t these characters quirky? I wonder if the mark will become the con at the end!
I like how complicated criminal enterprises are in movies. In real life, 99% of all mob plots consist solely of beating someone up and telling him he owes you money. So I’ve heard.

JEW BETTER NOT!
Mark and Scott Ruffalo are the Brothers BOOM!
i’ve nothing witty to say but I will say that I really liked Brick, thought it was a damn good movie.
Yup. I’d fuck Rachel Weisz even in her Charlie Chaplain get-up.
*pops bowler hat up and down, waddles away while twitching mustache*
The Brother McMullen just beat the shit out of this movie. And then drank a Guiness.
I prefer Brick on my chest.
Rachel fell in love with Adrian Brody, primarily due to his ability to always lead her directly to the Fruit Loops on the craft table.

This trailer grabbed my attention and put it in a Weisz grip.
Adrien Brody is an excellent con man. He always gets ‘em hook(nose), line, and sinker.
Brody wants nothing to do with being Ruffalo’s brother.
there some series bush in this movie. pity it all seems to be in the eyebrow area.
Brody stays away from Ruffalo because of the harsh winters.
Vince, you’re missing the middle “Current” photo of Zac Efron in that timeline you have up there.
Vince, I see you’re updating your portfolio. How did your Variety interview go?
Bloom! Here comes the Bloom!
Ready or not, here comes the boys from the South.
Bloom! Here comes the Bloom!
How you like me now?
I saw this at AFI Dallas with Rian Johnson, Adrien Brody, and Rinko Kikuchi in attendance. It sucked. All style, no substance. The film truly is the retarded baby of The Darjeeling Limited (or any Wes Anderson film) and Oceans 11/12. Not only that, but it’s far too long. The end is pretty good, but it’s not enough to make me recommend it to anyone.
I like how it says “Academy Award Winner” before Weisz and Brody, then “Academy Award Nominee” for that Rinko chick (who the hell is she?) but Mark Ruffalo gets nothing.
They could’ve put:
Is that the guy from that Law and Order Spinoff?
Mark Ruffalo
