James Franco and his LIPS !!!

that clip of franco simultaneously made and ruined my day this morning.

Bardem one is particularly disappointing

Ugh the Eisenberg one. Come on, bro.

idg how you could watch any other clip after Franco...

I read this as James Ferraro and his LIPS

You're in the right place.

kind of embarrassing

he's going to make the Oscars into one of his shitty art projects

so.... he's going to make the Oscars way better?

tbh I think Carrot Top hosting the Oscars would be an improvement.

xxpost Yay!

James Franco makes everything better

It's not going to be worse, just a cuter kind of annoying

Sully:

I have to say I don't know what to say. I suppose I should hereby retire from blogging. Maybe my amygdala is just completely side-swiped by the mustache or the smile to feel the revulsion at the narcissism others feel. Or maybe Franco is able to show us that he's mocking narcissism, while obviously seducing himself. Anyway, I can't stop myself watching it, in the same way a lot of people can't stop watching Franco wherever he appears.

The idea of a video-photo spread for the NT magazine remains, however, an inspired piece of new media. Congrats.

who are these people that are aparently feeling revulsion? are they extra-terrestrials?

The mustache sort of lends the scene a new meaning of "gay clone"

So it appears he's in talks to write and direct both Blood Meridian and As I Lay Dying. This information makes me both very excited and very nervous at the same time.

I thought Ridley Scott had optioned Blood Meridian?

p much definitively over this guy

hey i was planning to do that too

disappointed i didnt get under him first tho, AYO

yknow goole you kindof ruined that one for me

goole

lol @ both of u

so tired of this guy

Well, he's overexposed for sure. I'm sorta excited by this because I love both of these books (a lot) but I just don't know if this will be a good thing in the end. This is really fucking ambitious!

xpost Yeah I'm so tired of the handsomest dude on the planet being cute and awesome.

he should ruin some lesser-known works first

I say go for it. Dude could film a 10 part series about the Yellow Pages and I'd probably watch it

reminder: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0403848/

I actaully decided while watching him on Regis and Kelly last month (don't judge) that he's not actually as hot as everyone seems to think. a) too skinny b) bad facial hair atm

xpost

wait, um - what is that movie?!

gtfo :O

what should gtfo The Ape existing or my saying he's not that hot cause you know what? I just dropped a truth bomb.

yah i have been p consistent abt saying that he was hot in Milk but that was kindof it, yah kindof stringy looking around the face

I mean he's a good looking guy I just think he's sorta overrated in that dept is all.

Need I remind you of this:

http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2010/12/12/magazine/14actors.html?hp#2

Those artsy-fartsy clips make me think someone not so secretly considered the assignment "14 Directors Directing."

I want the assignment of directing and co-starring with Franco in "Soto and Other Drugs"

9 pipers piping
10 drummers drumming
12 lords a leaping

xpost wd watch imo :)

Thank god you're here, Al.

he sometimes looks funny -- kind of like an old man -- but when he looks good, he looks immortally perfect. so while i find it difficult to say his looks are overrated, i know exactly what u mean.

I love you ENBB and Josh and Surm but it DOES NOT COMPUTE

he sometimes looks like this:

i don't love that look

holy shit i forgot all about the ape. I was working at TLA in philly when they put that thing out and no one could be bothered to watch it.

The video store, I mean, not the releasing branch.

To think he would succeed in eclipsing Vincent Gallo in but five years

I dunno, at least this dude seems to have more of a sense of humor about himself and celebrity than, say, Harmony Korine. But Korine has done a pretty good job dropping off the map, so who knows.
