lol male strippers are so weird
I love Matthew Mcconaughey.
I don't know that I've ever seen C Tatum in anything before. He looks sort of dim.
I'll probably see this.

A dramatic comedy set in the world of male strippers, "Magic Mike" is directed by Academy Award(R)-winning director Steven Soderbergh ("Traffic") and stars Channing Tatum in a story inspired by his real life.
o rly?

yeah, there was a bunch of press lately about how he used to be a stripper and the movie is loosely based on his experiences
― some dude, Thursday, 19 April 2012 02:09 (twelve years ago) link
Current trends suggest that every film will soon by directed by Steven Soderbergh. And star Michael Fassbender.

i have a lot of affection for Tatum, because he seems kind of like a dude. The only thing he's been good in is 21 Jump Street, though he is serviceable in Haywire.

Was just wondering how a thread hadn't been started on this one yet.
Wish there was a more ensemble vibe from the preview. There's a lot of, um, talent in this cast that didn't even show up in any of that footage.

Still, 21 Jump Street made me actually not dread the idea of Channing Tatum being at the center of this.

Each of my gay irl friends that I've discussed the movie agreed with me, tho, that Tatum is maybe the least attractive member of this movie's stripper troupe. To gay men, anyway.

Not c. 1996. Anyway, we disqualified in on account of he's playing the Joel Grey role.
― jungleous butterflies strange birds (Eric H.), Thursday, 19 April 2012 13:13 (twelve years ago) link

bcz he's "formally" "retired" from feature directing, but is cinematographer and editor on this, when he doesn't even usually credit himself as editor on his own stuff, seems likely that he was at least somewhat more involved than the credits allow

I'm not saying he did ghost-direct it, just why people* might suspect that he did
(nb Spielberg didn't actually ghost Poltergeist and was only on set as producer a few days or occasionally iirc? for me knowing he shot & cut MM XXL made it more than enough of a Soderbergh film to want to see it after all, preferably in a cinema full of women)

rewatched the first one, forgot that the supporting strippers hardly do anything but dance (save for the Pettyfer-Bomer "I love YOU, man" drug scene, which wd have led to a pansexual quadrilateral in a pr0n).

Super entertainment, as good if not better than the other studio stuff I've seen this year. The cheapo attitude -- no name director, same cast, no script besides routines and one-liners that sound improvised -- is just what this concept needed (no Pettyfur already a plus).
I forgot Matt Bomer was in the original. Fuck Matt Damon for saying an out gay actor would never convince anyone he can play a part. Guess it helped that he's playing the gayest straight male stripper.
