I will suggest Love In The Time of Money.. Great indie with an HBO heavy cast. Trust, if you watched any of the big shows on HBO over the past few years, you will def. see some familiar faces..

Ang Lee (Crouching Tiger,Brokeback mountain)is doing a movie in upstate NY called \'Taking Woodstock\' about the people who put the fest on and got the permits and changed American culture, and I went up and got a role as an extra doing a \'prayer circle\' and cant go to the fucking shooting of the scene today because noone can switch hours with me at work. Bullshit. And the casting called last night and said its the peak and biggest scene in the movie  and that it is really important i try to make it. Meanwhile last Friday, my friend Zach who many of you know, also got an extra part (its being filmed by his house) and they chose him out of like 500 people to be experiencing a bad acid trip while the two main actors (Emile Hirsch from Into the Wild and Liev Schreiber) dialogue over him.. Ang Lee (who was rockin a Mets hat) sprayed his face with water to make him look sweaty. Im really pissed i cant get up there today to do the shoot, get paid, and be a part of something this cool. My luck it wins an Oscar. Anyway, I suggest the movie, it comes out in 09.

I actually met the guy who wrote the book at BookExpo in NYC last year before know what the book was about.  It\'s a good book.  Basically the final 3rd of it is about Woodstock and the first 2/3rds is basically about him coming to grips with his homosexuality and his affairs in the 60s with various men.  Not sure with angle Lee is going to take with it, but if Brokeback is any indication, I\'m sure that it will have a heavy dose of both stories.

Awesome opportunity, shit outcome. Great for your friend though. What was the auditioning process like to book a bad trip?? That\'s hilarious.

To celebrate the 20th anniversary DVD of Child’s Play, a gang of Chuckys brandishing butcher knives and axes were unleashed in Times Square. Did any of our readers karate kick one? Do tell below. On a previous /Filmcast, we joked that the planned Child’s Play remake would feature Chucky as a real boy instead of a dated My Buddy doll, but this is twice creepy. Shades of David Cronenberg’s The Brood. And maybe it’s me, but in a few of the photos from the London Paper, one of the Chuckys is kinda hefty. Missing yuppies?

You\'d be surprised just how short most celebrities are. 5 to 5-8 is the average from people I\'ve seen in person.

except for basketball players. They are freaking huge.




Also, go see burn after reading. :lol:

My friends and I sat around trying to guess actor\'s heights one night and were way off a lot of the time. Hollywood is fucking short! I think Will Ferrel (6\'3") and Vince Vaughn (6\'5") were the tallest of the bunch.
