FIRST IS FOR HOMOS by redfist	Jul 7th, 2008 06:33:31 AM
FLAMING AT THAT.
Kidnapping the thread: Wall-E? by ShadowMaker	Jul 7th, 2008 06:48:37 AM
Hi Drew, you promised us that the next thing you'd post is your Wall-E review. This is no Wall-E review. I realize reviewing it now may be a bit pointless, but since your kid is about the same age as mine, I would have loved to read about his reaction to the movie. (or should I call it a film?)
He’s never starred in one of his films before by jr42602	Jul 7th, 2008 07:03:52 AM
Might want to take a look at "Welcome to Hollywood".
I second the 'Where the hell is the Wall-E review, Mori?' stance by Zarles	Jul 7th, 2008 07:08:20 AM
Well...?
Hu hu..he he...HOMO...he he....hu hu.... by Riley Martin	Jul 7th, 2008 07:35:04 AM
He said HOMO...
I was hoping it was Ron Rifkin by photoboy	Jul 7th, 2008 08:04:09 AM
After Sloane on Alias it would be fun to see Rifkin camping it up.
Imdb by SuckLeTrou	Jul 7th, 2008 08:37:54 AM
...has a 3.8. "If you are capable of thinking, this film is beneath you. "Homo Erectus" is mindless garbage; the lowest excuse for comedy aimed at the most forgiving and infantile of minds; mentally-challenged adolescents. One scene pretty much sums up director Adam Rifkin's approach to comedy. In the trailer when the caveman throws the animal bone into the air 2001-style and it falls a moment later, hitting him on the head. Predictable, and utterly unfunny. A five-year-old wouldn't laugh." Sounds great, uh...sign me up?
well if it is as good as the love guru..... by ampersand110	Jul 7th, 2008 08:47:52 AM
ill pass. Plus saying Tom Arnold is going to be there isn't a major draw either. If i wanted to hear a guy talk about his fat ex wife I'd listen to my dad more often.
Sounds like a really classy film. by Badger999	Jul 7th, 2008 09:17:03 AM

Homosexuals are gay by IndyCollector	Jul 7th, 2008 09:36:54 AM

Seriously... by JimBobCooter	Jul 7th, 2008 10:06:21 AM
Moriarty... I trust you with all genres but comedy. "Love Guru" and now this. Yes, you deftly avoided giving any sort of personal endorsement or assessment of the film's value itself, and you are just promoting the EVENT... But this isn't even a fun "event" like "Satan's Cheerleaders" or something with geek value... this is a National Lampoon movie with Maxim girls in attendance. And though Ali Larter starred in this (it was shot pre-Heroes in 2005), I doubt she'll be there, removing at least accidental geek value. And calling this a true "indie" movie when it was paid for by the University of Austin so that their film students could work on a movie isn't quite the indie cred you'd expect. I know there must be a lull in movie events, what with only the greatest movie summer in a decade, but this is pretty lame. I'm happy Rifkin got the free promotion here. But I'll wait for AICN's screening of "The Hottie & The Nottie 2."
Adam Rafkin? Bring Action back! by ev1ldead	Jul 7th, 2008 10:13:57 AM
or at least Peter Dragon as producer of Vince's new movie in Entourage.
Well I'm in by Taragor	Jul 7th, 2008 11:17:38 AM
Sent Mori an email in the hopes my Wednesday evening will be a bit more interesting I just need to know...does Ali Larter get naked???? Hope to get the ticks and see other AICN readers there
The Dark Backward is the WORST MOVIE I HAVE EVER SEEN by Nasty In The Pasty	Jul 7th, 2008 11:50:18 AM
EVVVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEERRRRRR RRRRRRRR
Please tell me this is direct to video... by blckmgk13	Jul 7th, 2008 11:54:46 AM
...bloody hell.
Beverly Hills Gun Club by skimn	Jul 7th, 2008 12:44:41 PM
I'd pay to see that!! Thanks for the Action reference edead. Ya beat me to it.
Article title sounds like an invitation to a circle jerk by TallBoy66	Jul 7th, 2008 12:51:00 PM
Guess you'll have to see how many show up...
Funny thing about the IMDB page by Ditch Brodie	Jul 7th, 2008 01:24:03 PM
Some guy gave the movie 10 out of 10 stars. I clicked on his name and discovered that he also gave a 1982 sex comedy called Beach Girls 10 out of 10 stars. After reading his comments for both movies, I've concluded he has to be joking. Esp. when he calls Beach girls "Quite simply the most emotionally devastating film I have ever seen."
Saw ROTJ at the Egyptian in '83 by joe90025	Jul 7th, 2008 01:38:33 PM
How times have changed. Drew, do we have to tip Rifkin when it's over?
The trailer looks pretty bad. Lampoon's DTV movies look better by Mace Tofu	Jul 7th, 2008 02:47:32 PM
Is this getting a wide release or a Blockbuster exclusive? Other than the cheap CGI this looks like a Crown International movie like Cavegirl Vs being a Caveman knockoff. I hope those were not the comic high points in that trailer...
Can I ust say... by onephatnelly	Jul 7th, 2008 03:43:06 PM
... that I have absolutely no concept of this. Thank'ee.
The event poster: Drew McWeeny IS Homo Erectus! by Lenny8	Jul 7th, 2008 04:38:21 PM
Yep
Promoting unfunny, homophobic movies... by Le Vicious Fishus	Jul 7th, 2008 04:51:03 PM
with unfunny, homophobic puns, Mori? How would you define acting "like a homo" precisely? Think about the racial parallels, and I think you'll realize that publishing that kind of infantile garbage just blows. Bad show, Drew. You may be hands down the best writer on AICN, but you have a really tragic sense of humor. Is it raising your little kid that has you in a stunted humor phase, or have you always been a little--or a lot--off when it comes to knowing what's funny and what's not?
If Ali Larter gets naked I might see this... by blackmantis	Jul 7th, 2008 07:46:23 PM
...and for no other reason!
The Dark Backward by Hudson Cock	Jul 10th, 2008 06:28:25 PM
is fucking terrible. After writing and directing a piece of shit like that, he really should not be allowed to make another film ever again! It's not even "good" bad. Just bad, and Ali Larter won't get nekkid, unfortunately, so there is no reason whatsoever to see this.
