MICHEL GONDRY DIRECTS BJORK VIDEO

12.06.07 Written by Vince Mancini

The guys at /film dug up this videø for Bjørk’s “Hyperballad” (plus a cøuple øthers) that was directed by Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Be Kind Rewind director Michel Gondry. 

I like Bjørk.  I mean, not because her music’s good, because she’s like a good litmus test for people.  For instance, I translate, "I like Bjork,” as “Hi, I’m pretentious; disregard my opinion.”

She’s like an even more self-important version of Tori Amos.  We get it, you’re artsy.  Shut up now?  Anyway, here’s the poster for Gondry’s Be Kind Rewind, which comes out January 25th.

I also like how the French think they can use a weird spelling to distract us from the fact that they’ll name a dude "Michelle."  You’re not fooling anyone, pussies.

SELMA BLAIR HAS A GIGANTIC FACE

11.29.07 Written by Vince Mancini

Obey my jaw.

Over at the Hellboy 2 official site (Hellboy II: The Golden Army) they’ve got up the first of what they say is going to be three “first looks” in three days.  Guillermo Del Toro’s Hellboy sequel opens July 11, 2008.

The numero uno poster design is for Liz Sherman, the B.R.P.D.’s resident pyrokinetic and g.f. of Hellboy. Played by the raven-haired Selma Blair once again in HB2, Liz can control a blue-tinted flame which she wields to fry to a crisp any bad demons, monsters or other chicks that try to steal her boyfriend.

Yeah, okay.  Still, when I know the director’s capable of shit like this, I’m a little disappointed with shot of Selma Blair’s jaw and cheekbone.  They’re calling it a “theater lobby display”, so I imagine in real life it’s going to look even bigger than this.  Scary thought – blowing up pictures of extreme close-ups has a tendency to make chicks look fat (don’t ask me how I know) and they hate that.   

It’s a basic tenant of science that I try to harness when sending out pictures of my penis on Myspace.  Gotta give the ladies what they want up front, am I right?  And now we wait…

WOMEN BE SHOPPIN’

Cramer added for emphasis

Here’s the new Mad Money poster.  You can watch the trailer here.

KATIE HOLMES:  Omigod, this is fun!  It was so sweet of Tom to let me out of the basement.  I guess that’s why the Great Alien Spirit chose him to deliver his message.

DIANNE KEATON: Can’t see with these dark sun spectacles on – where am I?  Hey, look, confetti!  Did we win the war?

QUEEN LATIFAH:  Look, money!  I love money! Sweet money! Money money money!  Do they have more of these?  I’ll do anything for it; a buddy flick with Jimmy Fallon, the role of Aunt Shaneequa in Scary Movie 3 – anything!

GOOD IDEA/BAD IDEA, WITH ANNE HATHAWAY

11.15.07 Written by Vince Mancini

She rAnne Hath-away with my heart! (sorry...)

Using these two new movie posters (for Get Smart starring Anne Hathaway and Steve Carell; and Mama’s Boy, starring Jonpoleon Hederite and Anna Faris), let’s play Good Idea/Bad Idea.

Good Idea: Your movie stars Anne Hathaway, so you make her the focal point of the poster (Yes yes yes, a thousand times yes!)

Bad Idea:  Your movie stars Jon Heder
Bad Idea Part 2: Your movie also stars Anna Faris, so you put lots of clothes on her and put her in the background.
Bad Idea Part 3:  You use a green screen background for the poster, but forget to superimpose anything cool over it.

Click on the thumbnails ("thumbnails" are small pictures, grandpa) to see the original Get Smart and Mama’s Boy posters, and the FilmDrunk-improved versions.

Here’s the new poster for Made of Honor, starring Patrick Dempsey and Michelle Monaghan.  It’s basically a dude version of My Best Friend’s Wedding, where some platonic loser goes to break up some awesome wedding as the maid of honor.  Hey, no what would make a wedding way better?  A ring bear.  Like a real bear, that you could feed live chickens during the ceremony (shit man, this is why I need a fianceé).

Made of Honor joins a proud tradition of Maid/Made titled movies that includes Maid of Honor, Maid to Order, Maid in Manhattan, Maid for Each Other, Maid in America, Man Maid, American Maid…  and I have high hopes that this one will suck equally massive wang.

Ooh, and guess what the tagline is – “An Unbridaled Comedy”!  Oh my God, what did I do to deserve this PUNishment!!
