Will this be the movie so pretentious that no number of Seth Rogan comedies will rehab Franco's image?

yogarfield - 2014-01-25 probably, but it won't stop them from trying.
THIS SUMMER, THIS ISN'T ANY ORDINARY CIRCUS.
JAMES FRANCO, AS THE ELEPHANT JANITOR THAT NOBODY UNDERSTANDS.
SETH ROGAN, THE HIGH CLOWN.
and i think it writes itself from there. and seriously, why couldn't these two just stop at freaks and geeks?

Rodents of Unusual Size - 2014-01-26 James Franco also adapted "As I Lay Dying" from the Faulkner novel last year and it looks like it has the exact same shitty cinematography.

Nominal - 2014-01-26 This Is The End was a rehab movie?

This looks terrible. Child of God could make a damn good movie in the right hands with the right tone, but jesus this is awful.

I'm not sure what is pretentious about this. It just seems like a trailer for a run of the mill, crappy thriller, which is a shameful thing to do to such a good book.
Maybe the upside of this will be that it satisfies Franco's urge to adapt McCarthy stories and he will leave Blood Meridian the fuck alone.

Nominal - 2014-01-26 Never read the book, but thought The Road movie was dull and pointless. Was it a bad adaptation or am I just an idiot? The question has been eating at me.
|
TheOtherCapnS - 2014-01-26 It definitely wasn't as good as the book
|
That guy - 2014-01-26 not the most pretentious, not very pretentious
1 star for that description
more like 'probably mediocre attempt at Coen bros mythic realism'

While I was registering for classes at UCLA this quarter, I saw one called "Breaking Rad: The Golden Age of Longform Serialized Drama" or something to that effect. It was the hardest I've ever been at a course listing, but I found it kind of strange I was registering nearly a month late and there were 20-something spaces available in such an clickbaitably named class.
Then I looked at the instructor's name: FRANCO, J.
Yup. Him.

B. Weed - 2014-01-26 Shows where my headspace is that my first thought was "Jesus Franco? But isn't he dead?"

That guy - 2014-01-26 SDC, what are you taking there?
UCLAX or regular courses?

That guy - 2014-01-27 UCLA had a "rape walk" many years ago and it wasn't a charity event. It was a very unlit part of the just-off-campus area with a lot of bushes to jump out of or drag into.
JBF would have loved it.

Sexy Duck Cop - 2014-01-28 That guy: I'm a full-time English undergrad. What's 54 Evil?
|
That guy - 2014-01-28 Ah ok, never mind. I thought you were looking at a cluster of courses I'd taken. I was going to give you the heads up on good ones and bad ones.

Well that trailer gave away every scene. Now I don't have to watch it so five stars, and thank you.
