NOT THE BEES!! NOT THE BEES!!

Funiest thing I've seen all year.

― chap (chap), Sunday, 7 January 2007 23:51 (nineteen years ago)

And Ghost Rider is around the corner!

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Sunday, 7 January 2007 23:53 (nineteen years ago)

how can anyone think labute wasn't intending this to be funny?

― cutty (mcutt), Sunday, 7 January 2007 23:54 (nineteen years ago)

neil labute:

"How could I also make a movie that’s scary, you know, or at least creepy, during the daytime? How could I make that interesting? Those elements remained, but the way in which that character’s connected to the island - the patriarchy, which I have kind of turned into a matriarchy - all of those things are ways in which I saw to reimagine that material. To talk about something that was outside of the kind of really Christian versus Pagan-type deal of the first film and look at something that I had been working on a lot in my own writing: the idea of gender politics which are certainly, arguably, have been around as long if not longer than the concerns of the first movie.”

oh man, he was clueless wasn't he...

not the bees-- not the bees!

― cutty (mcutt), Sunday, 7 January 2007 23:59 (nineteen years ago)

well, this is labute we're talking about...

― zombierza (tehresa), Monday, 8 January 2007 00:01 (nineteen years ago)

i'm always wary of the "he meant for this to be some goofy-ass bullshit" argument, and I'm a big DePalma-Boorman fan.

― Zwan (miccio), Monday, 8 January 2007 01:14 (nineteen years ago)

OK the punching in the bear suit is pretty great. Also: WHY IS IT BURNED? WHY IS IT BURNED? WHY? WHY?!

STEP AWAY FROM THE BIKE

I might have to rent this now.

― Beth S. (Ex Leon), Monday, 8 January 2007 02:33 (nineteen years ago)

ottersome. and i dig the original.

― Forksclovetofu (Forksclovetofu), Monday, 8 January 2007 02:34 (nineteen years ago)

I'm telling you, this and The Village, double-bill of suck.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 8 January 2007 03:16 (nineteen years ago)

I'd like to ask Leelee about the karate kick to the face.

― Zwan (miccio), Monday, 8 January 2007 03:17 (nineteen years ago)

Wicker Man's a lot more fun than the Village though

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Monday, 8 January 2007 04:02 (nineteen years ago)

Just from the youtube clip, I know it is. You have Nic Cage in a bear costume, Leelee getting karate kicked, and bees!

― N.i.c.o.l.e (Ex Leon), Monday, 8 January 2007 04:04 (nineteen years ago)

This has totally made my evening.

― The Android Cat (Dan Perry), Monday, 8 January 2007 04:30 (nineteen years ago)

I'm telling you, this and The Village, double-bill of suck.

-- Ned Raggett (ne...), January 8th, 2007 3:16 AM. (Ned) (later)

top two of my bottom 5 of the year, if i recall correctly

― s1ocki (slutsky), Monday, 8 January 2007 06:23 (nineteen years ago)

If this past year, surely Lady in the Water instead.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 8 January 2007 06:24 (nineteen years ago)

oh shit, that's what i meant! it all blends together into one wonderful dream.

― s1ocki (slutsky), Monday, 8 January 2007 06:27 (nineteen years ago)

Hahah. You make it sound so good.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 8 January 2007 06:42 (nineteen years ago)

This is a very laughable film. Looks like it will be good fun for some laughs.

― kingfish prætor (kingfish 2.0), Monday, 8 January 2007 06:53 (nineteen years ago)

Cage hits a chick, take a drink.

― Edward III (edward iii), Monday, 8 January 2007 15:12 (nineteen years ago)

Bees? That's how this one ends? With bees? BEES?

― Party Time Country Female (pullapartgirl), Monday, 8 January 2007 15:43 (nineteen years ago)

MY EYES

― The Android Cat (Dan Perry), Monday, 8 January 2007 15:44 (nineteen years ago)

I saw this a few days ago on the airplane on the way home from the UK (visited Burrowhead and defiled Wicker Man feet from the original) and larfed out loud several times. Esp. after the hallucination sequence underwater where Cage yells "GodDAMMIT" on the dock. Howie would have NEVER done that. Oh, and the bear suit.

― The Milkmaid (The Milkmaid), Monday, 8 January 2007 15:51 (nineteen years ago)

And the bees.

― Party Time Country Female (pullapartgirl), Monday, 8 January 2007 15:56 (nineteen years ago)

Bees? That's how this one ends? With bees? BEES?

DON'T SPOIL THE "SHOCKING" ENDING!!!!!!!!

― Edward III (edward iii), Monday, 8 January 2007 15:57 (nineteen years ago)

"listen man, i'm havin a REALLY bad day, okay??"

― Euai Kapaui (tracerhand), Monday, 8 January 2007 15:59 (nineteen years ago)

HAHAHAHA my god! That "how'dit get burned!!!???" bit, wtf.

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Monday, 8 January 2007 16:00 (nineteen years ago)

I should mention that I DID NOT DEFILE/MAIM the Wicker Man feet -- I merely visited the feet that someone else maimed/defiled.

― The Milkmaid (82375538-A) (The Milkmaid), Monday, 8 January 2007 16:16 (nineteen years ago)

Does he die at the end of this version? (I can't imagine anyone on this thread will be too concerned about spoilers)

― chap (chap), Monday, 8 January 2007 16:19 (nineteen years ago)

Ethan's fat bees are having their revenge!

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 8 January 2007 16:20 (nineteen years ago)

I would love to think that Ethan has started a cult dedicated to killing people with belly button rings or lame music writers with bees.

― N.i.c.o.l.e (Ex Leon), Monday, 8 January 2007 16:48 (nineteen years ago)

That "Murder! Murder! You'll all be guilty!!" bit is reminiscent of Mugatu's "I've been taking crazy pills!!" bit near the end of "Zoolander".

Oops, spoiler, I guess. Sorry.

― Allyzay doesnt get into the monkeys or vindications (allyzay), Tuesday, 30 January 2007 21:59 (nineteen years ago)

It looks like Tony Clifton's head is trying to hide behind him.

Can we turn this thread into talking about Ghost Rider, then?

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Tuesday, 30 January 2007 22:08 (nineteen years ago)
