Repo: The Genetic Opera

[thebitterguy]

Although I could swear they're still filming this in TO (Seriously, wasn't there a call for extras just a few days ago?), there's a trailer out.

Tony Head, Paris Hilton, my Dad, and Sarah Brightman. Looks interesting. If only Meatloaf was available.

I...what? This is a prank, right? The "Saw" guys decided to spend all that money trying to top "The Apple?"

[thebitterguy]

Well, they're filming it simultaneously with Saw V, so maybe.

[thetathx1138.livejournal.com]

Ugh, this raises the possibility that Anthony Stewart Head has reduced himself to the "Saw" movies, something I'd rather not consider.

[thebitterguy]

I kid. I don't know if they'll start production on Saw V until after IV gets its first weekend. I think they've got "scripts" (i.e. "horrible ways for people to die") lined up into the teens.

[thetathx1138.livejournal.com]

Yep, cheap to produce, makes lots of money, they're running that franchise into the ground. Of course, since they keep offing the character playing Jigsaw, eventually Jiggy will be his ex-wife's cousin's illegitimate brother.

[thebitterguy]

I can't wait for the one where he's an AI. They should make it the 10th one, so they can call it SAW 1.0. And include lasers.

Yeaaahhh.

When I was in Toronto a couple weekends ago, I overheard Paris Hilton talking to a shop owner, saying that they'll be wrapping up filming on the 27th or so.

[thebitterguy]

Admit it, it felt awesome to say that, didn't it?

And thank you for that interesting tidbit.

Hmmm... you know, even though it has ASH (and I would love to see him in the big screen), I think I may have to give this one a miss.

I will, however, be buying the soundtrack.

It looks like a charming date film. Besides, April is usually a quiet time for films, so it'll be nice to catch it before summer season starts.

[queenie-writes.livejournal.com]

Wow! That looks like it could be either fucking cool or terrible.

so far, I'm leaning towards cool.

[queenie-writes.livejournal.com]

PS: I hope Paris dies in this movie too. Then I will be all over it. :P

[thebitterguy]

Has her chracter survived any movies she was in?

[queenie-writes.livejournal.com]

Well, House of Wax she didn't. Heh.

[thebitterguy]

D'oh! You ruined it for me! Now I have to not see it!

[lab-brat.livejournal.com]

I really want to see that! It looks better than I thought it would too, can't wait!

[thebitterguy]

I'd heard only the least about it, but that does look like a lot of fun.

[elizalavelle.livejournal.com]

Wait, Tony Head is in TO and I"m going to work every day instead of finding out where this films and having him sign my Buffy stake!? GRRR ARGH!

[thebitterguy]

I'm as surprised as you are.

[anidada.livejournal.com]

Apparently ASH does his own laundry. (http://toft-froggy.livejournal.com/287223.html) *adores*

[thebitterguy]

What's better is that would then allow us to determine what rental property he would be staying at or, more simply, to begin staking out Chinatown.

Theoretically, of courses.

Where do you FIND these things?

[thebitterguy]

Entertainment Weekly's blog. They are my bestest buds.

I have only two words for this:

GOTH OPERA!

Quick poll: do you think viktor_haag would get caught dead being anywhere near this when it opens?

A: Sure! He's up for anything! Especially if it has knives!

B: No way! He's much too solidly in the realm of "elevated art" to think this is in any way a good idea.

[thebitterguy]

I'd go for B), because you probably stroked your chin, turned down your lips, and emited and unsatisfied 'hunh' after watching it.

I'm not sure I even got through to the end of the clip, actually... 8)

[thebitterguy]

Wooo! The kid calls it again!

[deven-science.livejournal.com]

I don't know if this is some joke or real, but, um, your Dad?

[thebitterguy]

Joke. My dad looks like Paul Sorvino.
