Love Boat '68

Emilio Estevez's Bobby (Weinstein Co., 11.17) has been showing a lot in the small VIP screening rooms the last couple of days, but it will face the press on a big screen tomorrow morning at 8:45 ayem. A respected journalist saw it yesterday and was amazed, he said, that (a) it plays like a "comedy", or at least as a series of scenes that seem to be trying to elicit chuckles and/or guffaws, and that (b) the Grand Hotel scheme is a bit like "Love Boat '68". I know I wrote that earlier and all, but that's what this guy said. Yesterday, I mean

There's no way it's going to be as funny as "Men at Work", but I'm looking forward to it.

8:45, you got to be kidding. TIFF may as well be a big guns screening labratory for TWC, what a way to use the human resources gathered there.

I wilkl be so happy when this thing finally screens and the world can go back to ignoring it and EE.
BTW - I think they should just go ahead and stick that "Love Boat '68" line on the poster.

I wonder if Bobby Kennedy will have a balding dome like Emilio & Charlie had in that cable movie about these porn producers? That's worth a couple of chuckles too.

Talk about comprehensive TIFF coverage....

If Jeff has nothing to say of late, i'll start a topic. The new Apocalypto trailer is up on Apple. They are commited to Dec. 8. They use Gibson's name prominantely. And they don't let anyone speak, to avoid showing subtitles, so it's like an extended teaser.
