that one where the rock costars with the lumber is pretty sweet

― jhoshea (scoopsnoodle), Thursday, 1 February 2007 15:21 (nineteen years ago)

Hey hey hey - don't discount the Rock just yet!

Walking Tall was SUCH a waterdown that there's no way this guy's gonna make badass shit on an prime-era Arnie level.

― Zwan (miccio), Thursday, 1 February 2007 15:28 (nineteen years ago)

on a prime-era Arnie level. And while the fight scenes were great, The Rundown was disappointing too.

― Zwan (miccio), Thursday, 1 February 2007 15:29 (nineteen years ago)

My biggest issue with Chronicles of Riddick is that I went in expecting folks to be yelling "RIDDICK!!!" every couple minutes (interspersed with lots of explosions), instead everyone just sort of hissed it in disdain (and there were very few explosions). Disappointing.

Isn't there a 3rd movie to the PB/Chron of Rid series?

The Rock needs to do some buddy comedy/cop movies a la Rush Hour with Andy Dick or someone.

Oh wait, I guess that's kind of what Walking Tall was supposed to be, wasn't it?

After the original Pitch Black (2000) proved a success on DVD, Universal became interested in making a sequel. Writer/director David Twohy wrote the screenplays for not one, but three sequels. He and Vin Diesel put them into separate leather binders and presented them to Universal, along with the key for the first binder.

The Rock is making a movie with Kyra Sedgwick about a football player who discovers he has a little girl.

Vin Diesel's next three IMDB plot outlines are more promising:
A man on an alien planet quests to catch an elusive giant fish.

Veteran-turned-mercenary Thoorop (Diesel) takes the high-risk job of escorting a woman from Russia to China. Little does he know that she is host to an organism that a cult wants to harvest in order to produce a genetically modified Messiah.

Vin Diesel stars as the Carthaginian general who led an elephant-riding battalion across the Alps to attack Rome in the 3rd Century B.C.

― Zwan (miccio), Thursday, 1 February 2007 15:34 (nineteen years ago)

The Rock should be Hannibal, not Vin!

― David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 1 February 2007 15:36 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, that seems like a mis-cast -- but the fish one and the symbiotic hosting one sound GREAT TIMES A MILLION.

― Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 1 February 2007 15:41 (nineteen years ago)

morbs let me know what you think of painted veil. i dug it.

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 1 February 2007 15:43 (nineteen years ago)

whoa those three sound rad

― UART variations (ex machina), Thursday, 1 February 2007 15:45 (nineteen years ago)

esp the giant fish one

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 1 February 2007 15:49 (nineteen years ago)

unless it's just vin diesel in overalls and a straw hit sitting on an creaky old doc with a fishing line tellin' yarns while three moons orbit in a pink sky

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 1 February 2007 15:50 (nineteen years ago)

I believe I read somewhere that Rockfish is going to be animated.

He doesn't just star in the Hannibal movie, he's directing (and producing too, I think?). I remember reading somewhere it's been a lifelong dream of his.

According to Variety, Vin Diesel's One Race Films production shingle is partnering with Blur Studio to make a CGI feature based on the indie toon house's short Rockfish.

The thesp will voice a lead character in the sci-fi actioner, which will likely be aimed at a more mature audience than most studio-produced digitally animated pics.

One Race is now seeking independent financing for the production, which it hopes to bring in for under $30 million.

Diesel will produce with One Race partner George Zakk and Blur creative director Tim Miller, who wrote and directed the short and will helm the feature.

Rockfish short is about a man on an alien planet trying to catch a giant "rock fish" that lives underground and disrupts the planet's miners.

Diesel provided the voice of the giant in WB's critically acclaimed The Iron Giant.

maybe there will be a Wii game where you get to do alien fishing as Vin

― UART variations (ex machina), Thursday, 1 February 2007 16:07 (nineteen years ago)

...with sexy results?

― Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 1 February 2007 16:14 (nineteen years ago)

omg

― jhoshea (scoopsnoodle), Thursday, 1 February 2007 16:15 (nineteen years ago)

Okay I am officially obsessed with Vin Diesel today. Maybe I will rent The Pacifier on my way home.

― blotter Budweiser Hackeysadk (nickalicious), Thursday, 1 February 2007 16:21 (nineteen years ago)

I'd like to think the other two Riddick scripts are sitting, still locked, somewhere in the offices at Universal at the bottom of a big pile. Someone should try to rescue them!

― Zwan (miccio), Thursday, 1 February 2007 16:24 (nineteen years ago)

clearly none of you want Vin to stretch a la Find Me Guilty.

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 1 February 2007 16:36 (nineteen years ago)

I don't want anyone to stretch a la Find Me Guilty

― Zwan (miccio), Thursday, 1 February 2007 16:38 (nineteen years ago)

I remember liking his performance in Boiler Room, though.

― Zwan (miccio), Thursday, 1 February 2007 16:38 (nineteen years ago)

Rock 'n Roll High School.

Not as fun as I remembered.

A Dirty Shame

Meh. It was definitely John Waters, but he kinda got all "MY POKEMANS LET ME SHOW YOU THEM" with a wide array of sexual fetishes & subcultures, but the overall movie was pretty sex-positive and fun.

Patti Hearst as a recovering froteuse was pretty good, tho.

― elmo argonaut (allocryptic), Thursday, 1 February 2007 18:38 (nineteen years ago)

Not as fun as I remembered.

i used to date a girl who was like two parts riff randle and two parts jenna jameson and 8 parts bat shit crazy.

― chicago kevin (chicago kevin), Thursday, 1 February 2007 18:39 (nineteen years ago)

haha

i am excited about these upcoming Vin Diesel projects

― rrrobyn, breeze blown meadow of cheeriness (rrrobyn), Thursday, 1 February 2007 18:50 (nineteen years ago)

he should combine all 3 into one Vintastic Extravaganza!

-- Zwan (anthonyisrigh...), February 1st, 2007.

perhaps...Vin Diesel?

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Thursday, 1 February 2007 18:54 (nineteen years ago)

i think he'd be totally capable of meta-adventure and meta-ass-kicking

― rrrobyn, breeze blown meadow of cheeriness (rrrobyn), Thursday, 1 February 2007 18:59 (nineteen years ago)

i loved chronicles of riddick! the goth metal bad guys were so cool.

― scott seward (scott seward), Thursday, 1 February 2007 19:11 (nineteen years ago)

and i loved the hot planet that got very hot and the hot hole in the ground prison!

― scott seward (scott seward), Thursday, 1 February 2007 19:17 (nineteen years ago)

'seraphim falls' - hey this was good! a little obvious in places, i guess, but it's a western in the classic vein, sans revisionism and with a pretty solid cast (liam neeson, pierce brosnan, michael wincott, tom noonan, angie harmon, wes studi, angelica huston). it sort of loses the plot a little near the end, but it's better than i expected.

Black Narcissus (started boring, got fun, totally ridiculous)
Hard Candy (started fun, got boring, totally ridiculous)

― Zwan (miccio), Friday, 2 February 2007 16:30 (nineteen years ago)

Hard Candy was really really good up through the, um, balls scene (trying not to be too spoilery). I still enjoyed the rest, but it sort've climaxed too soon

― blotter Budweiser Hackeysadk (nickalicious), Friday, 2 February 2007 16:40 (nineteen years ago)

I don't even know what the term for it is, but I really hate that kind of digital shakycam they use in Hard Candy and the remake of The Hills Have Eyes.
