THE STARLING in which hilarious
Melissa McCarthy and equally funny
Chris O'Dowd play a married couple trying to rebuild their relationship after suffering a tragedy. While the husband heads off to deal with his grief in recovery, Lily Maynard tries to heal in the real world, one that becomes surreal when she grows a beautiful garden in their backyard, only to find herself repeatedly attacked by a starling that has built a nearby nest. She turns to a psychiatrist turned veterinarian (to be played by
Kevin Kline) with baggage all his own, and who tries to help Lily with her bird problem and who ends up making a larger impact on her life.
'SPACE OPERA' IS LIKE
INTERGALACTIC EUROSONG
Have you ever tried to envision legendary
Eurovision Song Contest in space? That is what kinda happens in
Catherynne M. Valente's sf novel
|
Space Opera will be adapted over at Universal |
SPACE OPERA which will be adapted into a film over at Universal by
Joe Epstein. The story centres around a fierce musical contest in outer space known as the Metagalactic Grand Prix. Part gladiatorial contest, part beauty pageant, part concert extravaganza and part continuation of the wars of the past, species far and wide compete in feats of song and dance. Those who place well are revered and those who fail face sudden extermination for their entire species. However, Earth just stumbled upon this new galaxy and, in an effort of diplomacy, decides to compete and sends Decibel Jones and the Absolute Zeroes to rep the planet as they roll the dice on their fate.
SEXTUPLETS TRAILER IN WHICH
MARLON WAYANS PLAYS THEM ALL
|
Sextuplets hit Netflix in two weeks! |
Netflix has, meanwhile, released the trailer for their hilarious comedy movie
SEXTUPLETS in which
Marlon Wayans plays all six main characters! The story follows Alan, who grew up thinking he was an only child. Ahead of welcoming his first kid, he goes in search of his birth mother and learns the truth: he’s not an only child… not by a long shot.
Wayans also plays Alan’s sister and every single one of his four brothers: Russell (who helps Alan learn of their sextuplet status), Ethan (who can smell that “Republican money”), Baby Pete (the name matches his stature), Dawn (an exotic dancer about to be released from prison), and Jaspar (seemingly, the intellectual of the siblings). The comedy is out August 16th!
I can hardly see in The Starling a comedy,as it is based on loss of life and suffering.
ReplyDeleteThe starling is a common garden bird; it's a noisy bird, and therefore annoying. Perhaps it adds a comic aspect to the couple's struggle with life after the loss of their baby. I'm not sure I get it.
She and the psychiatrist/vet will probably get into all kinds of mischief because of the annoying bird.
DeleteI had a beautiful basil plant I've been growing since the beginning of summer. Yesterday, some damn squirrel declared war on it, and now it's no more :( I totally get her bird issue!
ReplyDeleteI did not know squirrels like fragrant herbs! We have more problems with snails, they will eat up everything in matters of seconds, both small and big ones. And I can't get rid of spiders on my balcony, they appear in ten minutes even after I wreck their webs... You need a cat in the yard to chase away rodents!
DeleteThe neighbor's cat does come over often, but we have a ton of woodland creatures in our yard that even he can't keep up with them. I watched a mole run back and forth across my front patio today. He's probably the little bastard that dug up half of my summer flowers. I am having a really bad time with critters messing in my gardens this year!
DeleteIt might be a sign of apocalypse, you know, critters leaving their habitats running for their dear lives... that, or you have a volcano under your house which is awakening.... You're safe as long as you don't see snakes....
DeleteHaven't seen Kevin Kline in ages!
ReplyDeleteMe neither!
DeleteI love Melissa McCarthy! She will always be Sookie to me - ugh I miss Gilmore Girls. My fiance will probably want to watch that Marlon Wayans movie with me, especially because his name is Marlon too lol.
ReplyDeleteDid you watch the return series of Gilmore Girls two years ago? It was terrible, sadly, they totally ruined the characters especially Rorry whom they turned into a slut :(
