RANDOM QUOTE | I'm a comic book artist. So I think to myself, what do I like to draw? I like to draw hot chicks, fast cars and cool guys in trench coats. So that's what I write about.

THE MOVIE-ISH UPDATE OF THE HOWEVER-LONG |
|
Huggy Bear: The quintessential man of the 70's
|
Well, I figured enough time had passed since I last had an update that meandered anywhere near the subject of movies, so now's as good a time as any to blurb up some info.
I'm guessing from by adding the subject matter of this post with the picture of Huggy up there, you've probably figured out I was going to be saying something about the Starsky & Hutch movie that's currently in pre-production (read: people are still asking for more money before they sign anything). From what I've read so far, Ben Stiller will be playing Starsky, with Hutch going to either Vince Vaughn or Owen Wilson. By far, the coolest cast announcement is the big push from the production company to try to get Snoop Dogg to play Huggy Bear. That would be a sight to behold, especially if the rumors are true, and their going to try to make it set in the 70's.
At the least, its ten times cooler than DMX playing the superhero of all fat, antisocial teenagers that like to wear makeup.
Of course, one of the original guys (don't remember which one) is bitching on about how it should have the original cast, and be a "fitting and final legacy of Starsky and Hutch." SNORE. What a fag.
Not much has happened in the Bruce Campbell universe lately, and I can't seem to find any more information about the "Mystery Project" that he, Raimi and Tapert discussed. There is, however, news about Bubba Ho-Tep, a movie in which he plays an elderly Elvis (the real Elvis), living in an old folks home, trying to rid it of a evil mummy or some shit. Don't really know what to say about that one. Here's Ain't it Cool News' take on the project.
Me and Ian were talking a couple weeks ago, and I brought up the idea (because I come up with all the good ones) that somebody should make a live-action PowerPuff girls movie. Well guess what: Nobody's making one. There is, however, going to be a turd of an animated one you can read about here. Bleah.
Well, that's about it. Here's some of the ubiquitous movie info:
- Matrix Sequel: Still chugging along after the death of two central characters halfway through production (Aliyahayahaia or whatever, and the old hag that played the Oracle). And if you haven't seen, which I hadn't, there's some 'stand alone' mini-graphic-novels at the Matrix website that are pretty kick ass.
- The Terminator: As if it isn't bad enough that its going to happen without Cameron's approval, they're already planning to make a fourth one. Sheesh. I'll still probably go see them.
