I am really looking forward to this movie, probably more than any other besides The Dark Knight. I don't want to know any more details about it. I'm not going to look here any more.

Dir: Michel Gondry
Writ: Michel Gondry
Starring: Jack Black, Mos Def

A man (Black) whose brain becomes magnetized unintentionally destroys every tape in his friend's video store. In order to satisfy the store's most loyal renter, an aging woman with signs of dementia, the two men set out to remake the lost films, which include Back to the Future, The Lion King, and Robocop.

This is the first I've heard of this and *Holy Shit* it sounds fantastic already. I'll see anything by Gondry and Black & Mos Def is a great pairing.

I've heard about this before, it's definitely an interesting premise.

Somebody else asked why they didnt just go out and buy the videos again and so I must ask the same thing.

if they can get around that convincingly then im sure itll be great with jack black and mos def. black is especially good at physical comedy.

mos def was far and away the best thing about hitchhikers guide...and black is always funny, so this looks pretty promising.

The store is struggling as it is, with only a few customers who actually still rent VHS, I believe.

Jerry (Jack Black) is a junkyard worker who attempts to sabotage a power plant he suspects of causing his headaches. But he inadvertently causes his brain to become magnetized, leading to the unintentional destruction of all the movies in his friend's (Danny Glover) store. In order to keep the store's one loyal customer, an elderly lady with a tenuous grasp on reality, the pair re-create a long line of films including The Lion King, Rush Hour, Ghostbusters, When We Were Kings, Back to the Future, Driving Miss Daisy, and Robocop , putting themselves and their townspeople into it. They become the biggest stars in their neighborhood.


Features Black, Glover, Def, Sigourney Weaver and Mia Farrow. Should be excellent.

He was great for about 30 seconds. Then me and the rest of the world, except for you, got sick of him. That stupid-ass smirk and wrinkling his ugly eyebrows does not make him funny.

Jack Black rules this planet and his shits are used as currency in many eastern European countries.

Well that says a lot about both the world as a whole and Eastern Europe.
