Robert De Niro's Star Wars Audition :)

insa pentru cei care vor sa se destinda cu SW, iata insa "probele pierdute" ale lui Robert De Niro la auditia la Star Wars. Around 1975...in a galaxy not so far away...


as Luke S.

as Darth V. de excelentul impersonator Josh Robert Thompson
si inca un Vader gen Good fellas

the new star wars controversy

George Lucas scoate Star Wars-urile pe blu ray pe 16 septembrie(asta inainte de a le scoate anual in 3 D din nou pe ecrane incepind de la anul). Acum, de-a lungul timpului nicaieri si nimeni nu a facut mai multe schimbari la un opus (produs?) ca Lucas. Netul urla si plinge de noua schimbare in care Darth Vader striga NUUU, cind il arunca pe Palpatine (Sith) in put (Return of the Jedi). In original Vader era tacut si asta functiona mai bine dramatic.
In continuare Greedo trage primul ( A NEW HOPE) dar acum ochii la ewoks clipesc CGI (Return of the Jedi) si Yoda e total digital in The Pahantom Menace.

dupa cum spune actorul Paul Scheer:

“If George Lucas continues to change Star Wars at this rate, in the year 2028 it will just become Spaceballs.”

v.comentariile rockerilor nostri pe metalhead !

o piesa a proiectului, care i-ar fi impresionat pina la lacrimi pe Metallici, intitulata Junior Dad, asa cum suna ea in concert cu Lou, Laurie Andreson si John Zorn -din seria "unlistenable" sau pentru urechile curajoase...

"Junior Dad" lyrics:

Would you come to me
If I was half drowning
An arm above the last wave
Would you come to me
Would you pull me up

Would the effort really hurt you
Is it unfair to ask you
To help pull me up

The window broke the silence of the matches
The smoke effortlessly floating
I'm all choked up

Pull me up
Would you be my lord and savior
Pull me up by the hair
Now would you kiss me on my lips

Burning fever burning on my forehead
The brain that once was listening
Now shoots out its tiresome message

Won't you pull me up
Scalding my dead father has the motor
And he's driving towards
An island of lost souls

Sunny - a monkey then to monkey
I will teach you meanness fear and blindness
No social redeeming kindness

Oh-or-state of grace
Would you pull me up
Would you drop the mental bullet
Would you pull me by the arm up
Would you still kiss my lips
Hiccup: the dream is over
Get the coffee: turn the lights on
Say hello to junior dad
The greatest disappointment
Age withered him and changed him
Into junior dad
Psychic savagery

Frumos e-n septembrie la Venetia....

zicea Mazilu (nu Dinu ci Teodor) si pina sa vina AC sa-mi povesteasca daca a meritat editia 68 a festivalului, deocamdata vorbele bune vorbesc de noul Polanski, dupa piesa de teatru a Yasminei Reza, Carnage, si cele rele de ceea ce numesc dezastruosul nou film al lui Cronenberg (de ce oara nu l-a luat Cannes-ul ?), A Dangerous Method, cu Sigmund Freud si Carl Jung in rolurile principale...

dar mai interesant/sau horror pare filmul de debut al Madonnei, un biopic, sau fals biopic, W.E. (nu Wall-E, ci Wallis Simpson), macar de comentat, ca se pare ca i-a speriat pe cei ce l-au vazut...
pe mine ma intereseaza mai mult filmul lui George Clooney, thrillerul politic, The Ides of March !
Se mai dau la Venetia o serie de filme americane noi si unele de sezon de Oscar, de la noul Spielberg, War Horse, la noul Clint, J. Edgar, la noul Abel Ferrara, 4:44: The Last Day on Earth, ecranizari si re-ecranizari, noul La rascruce de vinturi si versiunea pentru marele ecran la Tinker, Tailor, Tailor, Spy. Se pare ca THe Rum Diary n-a fost ok nici pentru Cannes, nici Venetia so...
Romanians no show asa ca Leul e pe miini anglosaxone se pare...
totul pe Guardian, inlcusiv podcast pe zile...
