This Will Be The Worst Movie Ever....

Foxx, Farrell Take on 'Miami Vice' Duty

Mon Feb 14, 3:00 PM ET Movies - AP

LOS ANGELES - Add Jamie Foxx and Colin Farrell to the roster of stars resurrecting TV shows for the big screen. Foxx and Farrell will star in a movie version of the cop series "Miami Vice," which will be written and directed by Michael Mann, an executive producer on the show that ran on NBC from 1984-89.

Shooting is scheduled to begin this spring, with the movie tentatively due in theaters July 28, 2006.

Other upcoming movie updates of TV shows include Cedric the Entertainer's "The Honeymooners," Nicole Kidman and Will Ferrell's "Bewitched" and "The Dukes of Hazzard," with Johnny Knoxville, Seann William Scott, Jessica Simpson and Burt Reynolds.


Foxx, who co-starred with Tom Cruise in Mann's hitman thriller "Collateral" last summer, will play Detective Ricardo Tubbs, a role originated for TV by Philip Michael Thomas. Farrell is playing Detective Sonny Crockett, the part created by Don Johnson.


Universal Studios, which is releasing the movie, recently released a DVD set with the first season of "Miami Vice."


Coming off a breakout year, Foxx is the favorite to win the best-actor prize at the Academy Awards on Feb. 27 for his spot-on emulation of Ray Charles in "Ray." He also earned a supporting-actor Oscar nomination for "Collateral."


Foxx's next film is "Jarhead," a Persian Gulf War drama due out this fall from director Sam Mendes ("American Beauty").


Farrell is coming off the epic flop "Alexander." He next stars in another historical saga, "The New World," a tale of John Smith, Pocahontas and the conflict between Indians and 17th century settlers. Terrence Malick ("The Thin Red Line") is directing the film, due out in fall.

:eek:

I will see nothing that stars Jimmy Iovine's love child.

BOMB seem appropriate for this movie? Hollyweird is TOTALLY out of ideas now...

LMFAO!!! Can we say UNIBROW??

Well, if you look at the Box Office, no one else will, either.

I've never wanted to attack someone with a Lady Bic more than Colin Iovine, my love.

if Colin Farrell & Jimmy Iovine fought who would win the undisputed World Unibrow Championship?

He is one person you can just smell through the screen. And it's not lavendar and jasmine. It's rank. :barf:

Oh. At first I thought it was Will Farrell, and was thinking, "that could be funny" but then, no. :( Colin Farrell is soooo overrated.

Went to see Alexander with a friend of mine... he kept sighing and saying "Oh he's ssoo hot..." And everytime he did that I'd look at him and say "Eyebrows!" really loud just to irritate him and the rest of the people in the audience. :angel:

It wasn't a bad movie per se... but it would have been much better if they had done away with all of the scenes of Anthony Hopkins. I don't have a problem with him as an actor, but his role in that movie was pointless and added about 45 minutes to an already overly long movie.

That movie was horrific! I saw a screener and couldn't get past the first hour. Angelina Jolie hit an all-time low, she was shockingly bad, but Farrel was putrid. Truly nauseating.

And Farrel hot? *shudders* And people say my taste is weird. :rolleyes: :laugh:

Yeah, well, what can I say, my friend is a self-described slut who is attracted to anything under 45 that possesses a penis.

Exactly. Any man who even looks like he smells of butt juice is automatically a dog.

Hopefully she's not an idiot like Hootchie Spears and won't buy a penis for $50 million. :laugh:

No. HE is not an idiot hootchie. He'll never buy a penis... but he has no qualms about juggling five at a time. :]
'Course that never lasts more than a couple of weeks at the most. Have given up trying to keep track of his boyfriends. Last I heard he was unknowingly dating a Stevie fan and made a not-so-kind remark about Ms. Nicks and got in trouble for it. But that was over a month ago so Mr. Steviefan's probably ancient history by now. :nod:

Imagine if one of us had been dating that Stevie fan. :lol: We'd be throttled and left in pieces in a dumpster.

Mostly my friend has issues with Stevie's fashion sense, or lack thereof (his words, not mine. My eyes were glued to Lindsey the entire time). I took him to a SYW concert, but I don't think he was paying any attention at all to the music. On one side of him was a really old gay man, on the other side was a teenaged girl in a bikini top, and both were hitting on him all night long.

The teeny-bopper kept yelling "Stevie, I want to have your baby!" and telling my friend what great hair he has. She even game him her phone number. Silly girl. :laugh:

He also spent the night trying to convince me that Lindsey isn't straight. I could see him maybe swinging both ways and could totally dig it if he did, :nod: but I think my friend's gaydar is malfunctioning.

And if one of us was dating that Stevie fan? Oh I don't even want to imagine. I've seen the wrath of some Stevie-ites - they can be downright rabid when their blood's up!

Well, it's not supposed to, but it does. Last night, after I saw my hometown on the news for the "Anti gay marriage rally" and then the "Town officials say that will not be tolerated and that Placerville is a 'hate free city'" I started looking for pics of it on the web, and this is actually the historic bell tower in the middle of town with Xmas lights on it, that some vacationer took a pic of. The vacationer said something like..."Ah, the christmas penis" or something. I thought it was funny. :laugh:

[amber]

Even I wouldn't multi-task like that.
Good Boy! :laugh: I've seen my "friend with Stevie's birthday" manage nearly that many, though. :eek: I've had 2 before, but I usually like one better, so it's not really 2. I can usually only pay attention to one person at once, and like one person best at once. :) :angel:

TMI? No, I didn't mean two at the same time, if that makes it better. I meant two in the same time period.

I actually met two of the guys, and one was really cool. I made the mistake of telling my friend that I liked the guy (as in, I liked him FOR my friend) and his response: "Really? He's bi, you know. You want him?"
Of course by the next week Mr. Bi-guy was yesterday's news.
Then I met this other guy my friend was with (and had met on the internet) who lives in a loft in San Francisco with two other gay guys. Last I heard my friend wasn't with Mr. SF Loft anymore but was still sleeping with him. :confused: Hence the reason I gave up trying to keep track.

What really gets me about the situation with Mr. SF Loft, is that part of the reason why he and my friend broke up is because the sex wasn't that great since both of them are "bottoms."

Okay, so the sex sucks. So let's break up but keep having sex? WTF?

The funny thing about that statement is that the time I met Mr. Loft, my friend and I went to his place to watch Queer as Folk since we happened to be in SF and neither of us have Showtime. (BTW, am absolutely drooling in anticipation of the DVD release of Season 4)

Makes sense to me. :laugh: JK - But maybe the sex got better with practice? Probably. That does happen sometimes. :) I'd just like to add that I'm still wrapping my head around the fact that some men are just bottoms, and some just tops. I mean, girls have to do both, why can't boys?? :confused: It boggles my little mind.

How bloody weird. :o That's like saying you're going to stop eating meat because it's gross, but then you order it at a restaurant.

[dissention]

I don't know everyone thinks this will suck. The key words for me are Michael Mann. The man has made some incredible films: Manhunter, The Last Of The Mohicans, The Insider, Heat, Ali and Collateral, to name but a few. I'm no fan of Colin Farrell but if Mann (who created Miami Vice - a huge hit in its day) is writing and directing I think it has every chance of being great and I certainly am looking forward to seeing it.

I think it's that Colin Farrel offends me on such a visceral level that nothing he's in could possibly be good to me. :laugh:

What is it with this thing about remaking old shows? They're Totally ****ty ideas. I mean, Miami Vice? :laugh: I mean, the show is cool and all, but not with Jaimie Foxx and Will Farrell :distress:

Colin Farrell.

[dissention]

I hate Farrell too I must admit.
Makes me sad to slag off a fellow Irish citizen, but he is just awful.
Alexander was just the worst movie ever.

It was atrocious. The thing that really surprised was how bad the acting was from everyone. Jolie, Hopkins, Kilmer, Dawson, etc. It's a given that Farrel will be awful, but he really polluted the whole cast this time around. :laugh:

[ryan8472]

Colin Farrell.
Oh really? LMAO Oh that makes it even worse. :lol:

I haven't seen a movie of a TV show that I actually liked, to be honest. I know Bewitched will be horrid (one look at the plot and it's a sure thing), too, but I love Nicole and will probably see it, anyway.

[strandinthewind]

Ok people, let me just say "The Sphere" was on last night AND I WATCHED IT - AGAIN no less :eek:

[amber]

I have to admit I loved Starsky & Hutch, but I adore Owen Wilson, so that was a guilty pleasure for me.

You know what the worst movie based on a TV show is gonna be, The Dukes Of Hazzard for sure! Johnny Knoxville, Seann William Scott and Jessica Simpson!!! :eek:
I was gonna say I like Starsky, but wanted to wait until you got here so that I would have backup! :lol: I like Sean William Scott, I wish he'd get a little bit better movies. he's pretty funny, I must say.

I thought Lopez was pretty good in that :shrug: I LOVED the dream scenes - they were just soooooo twisted, esp. those three woman who would repeat after one another in sequence. Then the "Da da dum da dum" singing the beast does while torturing :eek: I may have to get that DVD.

Why do you keep saying that? Were we planning to get married and I didn't hear about it? How's the sex? Is that why we're getting married? :confused:

Ooh, I'm with you on that, Owen Wilson is so sexy!

[David]

Alexander was just the worst movie ever.See, now I thought it was a major (albeit deeply flawed) achievement. I found the use of CGI in it far more interesting than in other CGI-filled epics the past several years. It's an amazing movie the way that "Ivan the Terrible" or Gance's "Napoleon" is amazing -- it's loony-visionary. The battle scenes (particularly the first battle scene) pulse with perspective, irony & symbolism; Alexander tells his soldiers that they are free men, in contrast to the hordes who serve Darius. But their freedom is defined by Alexandar's dominating will & their own concept of freedom as nothing more than personal gain & self-interest. And the use of the eagle in that scene is amazing -- it bespeaks a director with a true sense of the sublime, not just a computer geek like Peter Jackson, Wolfy Peterson, James Cameron or dozens of others. Alexandar rallies his men with a speech about the superiority of the Macedonians because of their concept of individuality. The Persians await the battle across the field -- silent, stone-faced, subservient robots. Alexandar's horse stomps the earth restlessly, but then something strange & remarkable occurs: the image turns blue & there is silence. You see an eagle, & you're suddenly borne aloft, above the armies. You're gliding a mile or more above it all, but you can still hear faint echoes of Alexander's voice, as if his words had risen through the atmosphere to the abode of the gods.

A lot of the movie is a mess: crude & boffo. But it has vision & breadth, & it kept me entertained. It's like a psychedelic omelet filled with everything from Shakespeare to Freud to Nietzsche, & topped with shredded Hunter S. Thompson cheese. All pretend-epics should be like this: gutsy, brash & slightly loony -- the way Gance approached "Napoleon" or Griffith "Intolerance" or Bertolucci "Novecento." These are primordially personal filmmaking statements, not the bland, mass-produced swill you get from committees of shirts at the studios.

Seann William Scott is hot, hot, HOT!! The bod- the square jaw- the mouth- the furry forearms- the ass- the everything! Who cares if he's short? Just makes him easier to spin.....

It's an amazing movie the way that "Ivan the Terrible" or Gance's "Napoleon" is amazing -- it's loony-visionary. The battle scenes (particularly the first battle scene) pulse with perspective, irony & symbolism; Alexander tells his soldiers that they are free men, in contrast to the hordes who serve Darius. But their freedom is defined by Alexandar's dominating will & their own concept of freedom as nothing more than personal gain & self-interest. And the use of the eagle in that scene is amazing -- it bespeaks a director with a true sense of the sublime, not just a computer geek like Peter Jackson, Wolfy Peterson, James Cameron or dozens of others. Alexandar rallies his men with a speech about the superiority of the Macedonians because of their concept of individuality. The Persians await the battle across the field -- silent, stone-faced, subservient robots. Alexandar's horse stomps the earth restlessly, but then something strange & remarkable occurs: the image turns blue & there is silence. You see an eagle, & you're suddenly borne aloft, above the armies. You're gliding a mile or more above it all, but you can still hear faint echoes of Alexander's voice, as if his words had risen through the atmosphere to the abode of the gods.

A lot of the movie is a mess: crude & boffo. But it has vision & breadth, & it kept me entertained. It's like a psychedelic omelet filled with everything from Shakespeare to Freud to Nietzsche, & topped with shredded Hunter S. Thompson cheese. All pretend-epics should be like this: gutsy, brash & slightly loony -- the way Gance approached "Napoleon" or Griffith "Intolerance" or Bertolucci "Novecento." These are primordially personal filmmaking statements, not the bland, mass-produced swill you get from committees of shirts at the studios.

I agree - it seemed sophomoric in its production. AND - CF did not help things. Although I like CF in some things, he appeared out of his element here.

He had lunch next to me the other day. He is nice looking as is his brother who was there as well. Interestingly, his honker does not look THAT big in person.

His brother? Talk about dumb. I've heard that fence posts have bigger IQs.

Seann William Scott is hot, hot, HOT!! The bod- the square jaw- the mouth- the furry forearms- the ass- the everything! Who cares if he's short? Just makes him easier to spin.....

:lol: :lol: :lol: :xoxo:
that was such a great visual.
I like short stocky men, too, in addition to other kinds. But that's cause I am short and stocky, so, my only height requirement is really...5'4" or over... :laugh:

:lol: :lol: this expression? :eek:

That's the one. :nod: If you have no manners, do not eat out, simple as that. The napkin goes on your lap, your forearms should not rest on the table, your elbows most definitely should never grace the table, and your mouth should always be shut no matter what. Do not EVER use a toothpick at the table or pick at your teeth in ANY way. :eek:

It wasn't obnoxious, it was the sound of crunchy food. My eating of them was impeccable. :cool: In those instances it was a case of "oversensitive bitch". You know, cause apples & carrots are crunchy?
The one of your rules that i think is pretty strict is: No resting forearms on the table.
Ever? While you eat? What?

[ryan8472]

I'm 5'9....Is that short? :p

Never, no forearms. It's not proper. :p

No, I was raised in a very strict household when it comes to table manners and etiquette, that's just how I was brought up. You know, no reaching across the table for anything, no leaving the table until everyone had finished, etc.

Yeah, I met Owen once, only briefly though. He is much better looking in the flesh and so smart and funny.
I'm still jealous you had lunch next to him though.

Luke Wilson? Why do you say that? He's just written and directed his own movie, I'm really looking forward to seeing it. I've never heard that's he's dumb, but he has been in some terrible movies.

No, I like him a lot and find him very funny, I'm just relaying what I was told. :laugh: I've never met the guy.

I actually really like tattoos, although I'm too much of a wuss to ever get one of my own. One of my real life crushes has a full colored sleave on one arm and has started work on the other. He also has several on his back. Unfortunately one of them is his wife's name. :(

Oddly enough, he's probably the only man I'm attracted to who isn't in love with himself. On the contrary, he's actually a spineless "yes, dear" who lets his wife treat him like **** even though she doesn't work and doesn't put out.

Foxx, Farrell Take on 'Miami Vice' Duty

Mon Feb 14, 3:00 PM ET Movies - AP

LOS ANGELES - Add Jamie Foxx and Colin Farrell to the roster of stars resurrecting TV shows for the big screen. Foxx and Farrell will star in a movie version of the cop series "Miami Vice," which will be written and directed by Michael Mann, an executive producer on the show that ran on NBC from 1984-89.

Shooting is scheduled to begin this spring, with the movie tentatively due in theaters July 28, 2006.

Other upcoming movie updates of TV shows include Cedric the Entertainer's "The Honeymooners," Nicole Kidman and Will Ferrell's "Bewitched" and "The Dukes of Hazzard," with Johnny Knoxville, Seann William Scott, Jessica Simpson and Burt Reynolds.


Foxx, who co-starred with Tom Cruise in Mann's hitman thriller "Collateral" last summer, will play Detective Ricardo Tubbs, a role originated for TV by Philip Michael Thomas. Farrell is playing Detective Sonny Crockett, the part created by Don Johnson.


Universal Studios, which is releasing the movie, recently released a DVD set with the first season of "Miami Vice."


Coming off a breakout year, Foxx is the favorite to win the best-actor prize at the Academy Awards on Feb. 27 for his spot-on emulation of Ray Charles in "Ray." He also earned a supporting-actor Oscar nomination for "Collateral."


Foxx's next film is "Jarhead," a Persian Gulf War drama due out this fall from director Sam Mendes ("American Beauty").


Farrell is coming off the epic flop "Alexander." He next stars in another historical saga, "The New World," a tale of John Smith, Pocahontas and the conflict between Indians and 17th century settlers. Terrence Malick ("The Thin Red Line") is directing the film, due out in fall.


Another remake? OMFG :eek:
