Tell me this doesn't look cringe-makingly terrible.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOSOWNS3jts |

That's a spoof, right? |

The pitch must have been worth watching, though. |

It looks like a parody of itself. And it explains those joke YouTube clips with beaver puppets lip-syncing Mel's ranting psychotic phone calls a few months ago.  |

Kate, I just looked that up at your mentioning - someone already did one for this trailer! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTIO4rza5vQ |

Wasn't this the most highly rated unfilmed script for years? Then Gibson and Foster got involved. |

Stick this in the hands of a quirky indie director, with some good unknown actors, a cool soundtrack, and a script devoid of sentiment, and you'd probably have a little gem of a film... |

That would have been the way to go, Gary! But it looks like this film will be an ever worse version of LARS AND THE REAL GIRL.... I wrote a script a long time ago: it was a comedy about a down-and-out guy whose left hand (unsevered, unlike its horror inspirations in film) suddenly comes to life, a crazy gesticulating personality who leads him to a better life.... It's total garbage. But hey, garbage is doing pretty well in Hollywood nowadays, methinks....  |
