Southland Tales

[Lintyfresh85]

Ok, so this movie has totally caught my interest lately and I think it has the chance to be really something big... It's from Richard Kelly the guy who wrote and directed Donnie Darko... (He's also from my home town of Midlothian) and it's about the apocalyptic future of Los Angles in 2008. It stars The Rock as an action star with amnesia, Sarah Michelle Gellar as a porn star trying to have a reality tv show, also has Sean William Scott, Mandy Moore, Justin Timberlake, Kevin Smith, most of the SNL cast... (at least the women) and a ton of other actors... But here's the thing, it's not a comedy so much as a drama with comedy mixed in.... the movie which is about America, and terrorism, and just so much ****... I can't wait... it just got nominated for best film at Cannes Film Festival so I assume it's pretty damn good... No trailer yet, but I'm really excited about this one....

Also before this movie comes out there will be a set of 6 graphic novels released before the movie comes out... As yall can see I'm pumped about this movie... is anyone else?

Here's the cover of the first graphic novel...

Re: Southland Tales

When is it due out? The cast doesn't thrill me, but the plot sounds interesting.

Re: Southland Tales

it comes out sometime in the fall... it's at Cannes right now, so when that's done I assume the first trailer will come out... from there who knows... but if I had to guess either a late October or early November release.

Cool. I hope my theatre plays it, but I have a feeling it may not.
