Tuesday, March 04, 2003 Gilliam Back in the Saddle Everyone's favorite Python-turned-director has announced his next project, and the first since the disastrous filming of "The Man Who Killed Don Quixote." "The Brothers Grimm" will be a tale of the fable-writing authors' adventures in a fantastical Germany. Evidently Robbin Williams, Heath Ledger, and Matt Damon have been tapped to star. Gilliam has 75 Mil and backing from Bob Weinstein for the project. A Fall '04 release is planned, but I will bet dollars to doughnuts that the film will come in over budget and late. This is Gilliam we are talking about... In other entertainment news: Michael Jackson is a nut-job. According to a story broke by "Vanity Fair" yesterday (and covered by Reuters today), Jackson once paid a VooDoo Priest 150 large to curse Steven Speilburg, David Geffin, and "23 other people on the entertainer's list of enemies" in an intricate ceremony that involved the sacrifice of 42 cows and Jackson himself taking a "blood bath." The article also mentions that Jackson wears a wig and a prosthetic nose. A "source close to Jackson said that, without the device Jackson resembles a mummy with two nostril holes."
Also, the Geek Oscars were held on Saturday in LA, where Kate Hudsun hosted and presented the awards for achievement on the technology side of the Film Industry. Can you even imagine the scene in that building? Hundreds of the biggest and brightest tech-minds in the industry being presented awards by Goldie Hawn's daughter. This article from reuters is a pretty entertaining synopsis of the event, though does not mention who won for what. Poor Geeks... posted by JMV | 3/04/2003 11:17:00 AM| |
