on Dec 18 2007 07:37 AM Smokeback Mountain? or does this not have to do with the tobacco company honcho? probly be more like 'let's go to prison' meets 'the holiday.' jude law shouldn't have to do too much acting to pull off the gay thing. hmm, at it's best this could be 'catch me if you can' meets 'the shawshank redemption.' either way, time for jim to get back to the funny. also high time robert zemeckis stopped ruing his career by 'innovating' with that motion capture stuff. c'mon bobby, give it a rest.

on Dec 18 2007 08:48 AM there will be smoking of some kind but I think it may be of the pole variety. (Reply to this) |
on Dec 18 2007 08:53 AM In reply to this comment (#1370476) Umm... where in the article did it mention anything about Jude Law? (Reply to this) |

on Dec 18 2007 09:38 AM racer z, they're foreign...and not big buff dudes, so ignorant americans assume its the same guy. one's scottish, one's british. both have played gay roles before though. in any case, mcgregor seems like an odd choice for this if its a comedy. i don't see him teaming up with jim carrey very well but, what'd i know...i would have NEVER guessed jeff daniels would team up with him to make the funniest movie ever made. by the way slowheads, has nothing to do with cigarettes. phillip morris is just one of his cellmates he fell in love with. see, they use clever marketing like that to get naive people's attention. looks like it worked (Reply to this) |

on Dec 18 2007 10:14 AM Sounds entertaining to me, I like the combo of Carrey and McGregor. (Reply to this) |

on Dec 18 2007 11:29 AM No one wants to see a gay Jim Carrey movie. Not many want to see a gay prison movie period - "2 tickets for the gay prison movie at 7 please..." (Reply to this) |
on Dec 18 2007 11:44 AM "Morris eventually got out, but Russell's escapades got him a 144-year sentence." Wait, don't they mean escapeapades. (Reply to this) |

on Dec 18 2007 01:27 PM Musiclc is right! Who wants to see a gay prison movie? Yuck. (Reply to this) |
on Dec 18 2007 02:09 PM "I loved you like a brother!" I could see Chewey in a gay role, but not Obiwan. (Reply to this) |

on Dec 18 2007 03:05 PM What happened to Carrey? He carried so many movies on his back, has his star fell that much? Bad Santa wasn't that great so why let those fools direct this garbage. (Reply to this) |

on Dec 18 2007 04:46 PM Wow what a lot of Carrey doubters. I can't wait until they get proved wrong, again. (Reply to this) |

on Dec 18 2007 10:31 PM I'll watch a gay prison movie! But I'm gay and in prison, so... (Reply to this) |
on Dec 19 2007 09:09 AM Who wants to see that?... It sounds like CRAP. Who are they impressing? Worst of all WHY ARE THEY TRYING TO FORCE IT ON ME!!!! (Reply to this) |

on May 15 2008 07:20 PM In reply to this comment (#1374460) I'll force something on you... bend over! - Try thinking for yourself, I promise it doesn't hurt. I, for one commend any attempt to stretch social norms and look forward to seeing the movie. (Reply to this) |
