LET’S DO THE MATH

02.13.09 Written by Vince Mancini

As EW reports, Jonah Hill and friends presented a script to the major studios yesterday.

Hill and writing partners Max Winkler [The Fonz's kid] and Matthew Spicer turned over a super-secret script that only Hollywood’s top studio heads were allowed to read. The high-profile spec is called The Adventurer’s Handbook and centers on four 20-something guys who, inspired by a book of the same name, set out overseas in search of a mysterious location described in the book. The script was sent over on red, watermarked paper so it couldn’t be photocopied. Multiple studios were interested in the project described as an edgy, broad comedy. [E.W.]

Today, Variety reports that Universal bought the script for seven figures, with Lonely Islander Akiva Schaffer in negotiations to direct and Jonah Hill and Jason Schwartzman (Rushmore) on to star.  Look, I have a ton of respect for anyone who sells a spec script, but let me explain how this worked: NO ONE READ IT.  Two days? Not a f-cking chance.  At best, someone’s assistant skimmed it and then explained it to the people with the cash.  I’m not saying it’s going to be shitty, but I have a term I’d like to introduce for a movie that ends up sucking because people bought the pitch without reading the script: “Turd of Mouth”.

A LONELY ISLAND ALBUM?!?

12.08.08 Written by Vince Mancini

Sorry I couldn’t get to this before you may already have seen it on GorillaMask, but here’s this week’s SNL Digital Short, “Jizzed in My Pants” (also in YouTube format below, for you international types).  The big news is that /Film is reporting that it’s also the first single off Incredibad, the forthcoming The Lonely Island album, which they say will be released February 10, 2009.  You may remember The Lonely Island from “Just 2 Guyz,” which I posted a few weeks ago. “Just 2 Guyz” will also be on the album

The other big news is that you’re now apparently allowed to say “Jizz” on network television.  Things overheard as a result:

John Madden: “Here it comes – BOOM!  Boy, for my money, Pat, no one jizzes on a secondary like Brett Farve.”

Lou Dobbs:  “One day America will wake up and realize that we cannot continue to let these illegal Mexicans come in here and jizz all over our culture.”

Top Chef host Tom Colicchio: “Look, you can’t take a lump of tuna, jizz sauce all over it, and call it a tartar.  That’s just not how it works.”

Barbara Walters: “It’s amazing to walk the streets of New York these days.  You can almost see the hope Barack Obama has jizzed into the eyes of the American people.”

Bill O’Reilly: “Dammit, people, if I’ve told you once I’ve told you a thousand times, the thing about Barney Frank is – Hey, what the f-ck?  Can’t you cocksucking motherf-ckers hold the motherf-cking camera still?  Jesus f-cking Christ.  Look you jizz monkeys, I can either do the f-cking show or hold the f-ckin camera steady, I can’t do both.”

Lindsay Lohan [during an interview with Billy Bush]: “You can’t believe every rumor you hear, Billy. Samantha and I are still very much in love.  But I’d be lying if I told you I didn’t miss getting jizzed on.”
