Two Posters

Jim Carrey and Ewan McGregor making each other quiver with posterior pleasure is just what moviegoers are looking for, only they don't know it yet. I'm always intrigued by the idea of
straight actors playing gay guys, but comedies in this vein always seem to run into trouble. Is it a flat-out comedy or a dramedy? I need to read this, if anyone has a PDF copy.

Oliver Stone's
W has nothing to worry about as Karl Zero and Michael Royer's
Being W apparently has yet to begin filming. (Posters of this sort are put up to attract pre-sales.) The poster art is somewhere between awful and amazing. Bush as a French clown, Jesus Christ on a fighter jet, the twin towers still standing, a billowing American flag, etc.

Maybe it's a dramtic-comedy about two gay men who decide to invest in the tobacco industry, make it rich and then one begins dying of lung cancer?
Given the high-profile name of the company, what a strange name to pick...
My straight to video knock-off will be titled "I Love You Bear Sterns"

Bear Sterns would have been a much better choice, with its gay connotations, though the Ewan McGregor part would have to have been played by Kevin James or Jeff Garlin.

Is PHILLIP MORRIS being directed by Tom Shadyac?

I wonder when Bush, sr. will go on tv to decry that bottom poster, and say how sad he is that people don't see the real person his son is. Maybe Mrs. Bush will come on and cry and tell people it just isn't right...
McGregor and Carrey make a good couple...I'm just sayin'...

At last, the longawaited sequel to Thank You For Not Smoking, about the effort to get a domestic partnership bill passed.

Considering ILUPM is written by two former MAD Magazine writers who went on to create the modern comedy classic Bad Santa, I'm guessing this is a flat-out comedy.

From the IMDb: "The movie is a true story of Steven Russell (Carrey), a married father whose exploits landed him in the Texas criminal justice system. He fell madly in love with his cellmate (Ewan McGregor), who eventually was set free, which led Russell to escape from Texas prisons four times." Depending on how it goes a different twist for Carrey and a definite uptick for McGregor, though LET'S GO TO PRISON covered some of the same ground.

Sure this isn't the untold story of "Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man?"
