Now here's an absolutely unusual film: Terry Gilliam will produce 1884, which will bring a futuristic look of history in which year 1884 will have flying cars powered by steam and a man who has landed on the moon. In this tale of imperialistic espionage we shall see a mix of animation
with live-action puppetry and CGI. The background imagery will be a blend of period photography, miniatures and graphics.
Following the new trend of musical TV shows, TBS is preparing a pilot of THE WEDDING BAND a comedy that follows a group of guys who try to escape the stress and craziness of their lives by performing in a wedding band. Anchored by lifelong best friends - one a perennial bachelor (Brian Austin Green) and the other a married father of two (Harold Perrineau) - the band will stop at nothing to make every wedding, birthday or bar mitzvah a concert to remember.

It seem that pity little goat was crushed by that giant man :) Previously there were talks about big screen sequel now how can it be a TV show?
ReplyDeleteJohn Cena? I mean sure, his muscles are great, but his acting is sort of... well, did you see The Marine? Yeesh.

ReplyDeleteI almost died when I saw that pic of Cena :) I soooo need me some little goat pet instead of my lazy cat :) It will be a TV show, Jaccsy.
@Stephanie
ah, Steph, when someone has an ego big as his muscles, he doesn't really care about his acting talents :) I mean Schwartzy himself is the most horrible actor the world has ever seen and look how many films he made in the end.
Cena has huge muscles. That is actually a full size goat.
ReplyDeleteThat 1884 sounds really interesting. The other two I can do without.
ReplyDelete1884 does sound odd... but interesting... :)
ReplyDeleteOMG I can't wait for 1884
ReplyDeleteI loved the movie TRUE LIES so I can't wait to see how they make this one. Didn't a TV show come out that was close to it - with Christian Slater? Oh, what was it called...oh yeah, MY OWN WORST ENEMY. It didn't do well.
ReplyDelete1884 looks fascinating. Love to see how they blend animation and puppetry together.

Love me the Terry Gilliam. 1884 sounds fantastical and I can hardly wait. Cena plays to the same element as Ahnold. They're great for the 10-15 year old they aim these films at because these guys just kick ass and blow stuff up.
ReplyDeleteHey Dezz, how ironic that they had a wooden muscle bound actor in the movie and they#ve gone for a wooden muscle bound actor in the series. Or is it just me. Best thing about True Lies was Jamie Lee Curtis's "dance"!
ReplyDelete1984, I can take it or leave it.
Brian Austin Green?? He's a ringer for Jude Law, no??
Next James Bond?? I've voted for Gerard Butler, only because his mum lives in the next village to us. He sometimes goes for a pint in the village pub. No, I've not met him. :-)
Haven't a clue who Richard Armitage is.
omg is that a baby goat?!?!?! i'm sorry i can't concentrate on anything but that....
ReplyDeleteSaw the fake trailer for Gilliam's film - very weird, but funny.
ReplyDeleteAnd why on earth would they remake True Lies? What's wrong with the first one? It's not even twenty years old yet!
@Budd
ReplyDeleteyou're killing me :) Mega LOL :)
@Matthew
it was a boring day in the news department :)
@Vics
that was my thought exactly Vics. Weird, extremely weird, but interesting.
@Cheri
ReplyDeleteit's your type of flick? :)
@Clarissa
Christian Slater still works? :)))Haven't noticed him in decades, no wonder the show was a flop.
@Melissa
yep, you totally guessed the audience they are aiming at!
DEZMOND - 1884 sounds really cool. Um, the others - the first thing that came to mind in True Lies was the scene with Jaime Lee Curtis - the bedroom scene. She was funny there for that 60 seconds, but that was it.
ReplyDelete@DAvid
ReplyDeletebut you've surely met Butler mom? :) Armitage isn't that known outside UK, but he has a huge fanbase among ladies.
@Kristin
it's the epitome of cuteness :)
@Alex
I've no idea, you should file a complaint in Hollywood's remake department :)
@RaShelle
ReplyDeleteI remember the scene with Jamie Lee but it didn't do anything to me, since I've always found her unbelievably unattractive. I've never understood the success of her and Sigourney Weaver in the 80's.
1884 sounds like steam punk Monty Python style.
ReplyDeleteArlee Bird
Than you won't be surprised, Lee, that Monty Python actors will give their voices in this film :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, love Terry Gilliam -- the guy's 1 of a kind.
ReplyDeleteBut I love that kid that John's holding! So precious! :)
it is the most adorable pic I've ever seen :)) And I know goats and kid usually stink, but this one is just cuteness times million :)
