what the hek has Viggo been up to!

[lae]

yes it is a limited release in about 10 or so cities today, probably closest to you would be LA.  It\'s wide release is Sept 30th.

Deblee I was in the same boat asking here in Davis where\'s this playing and the box office Girl was like "?"....

so we have the people who live far out have to wait a week, oh well could be worst.

Hi

Percival Press are now selling "Intelligence Failure" by Buckethead and Viggo. When will you have it on sale Travis?

/Pax vobiscum

[Travis]

I believe they are pre selling it. I\'ll wait till I have copies in hand. Should be just a couple of days.

[Deblee]

Well it is to be released on the 30th in most areas, Darn I have to wait another week. I did see a good preview of it and heard other good reviews of the movie. Something to look forward to!

Hi folks!  Hope you don\'t mind me butting in - saw HOV last week.  Glad to see a more grown up movie than the usual Hollywood dross.  All the cast did a great job, esp Vig.  Loved Bill Hurt, wot a larf!  Violence wasn\'t that bad, see worse on tv every night & if DC thought that was porn, he should get out more!!  

Look out for the plastic trout!  

[m4sure]

I went to the LA premiere & after party
of HOV & saw David & Viggo there.
Was great fun...esp as I got a pic with
Viggo. They all seemed to be having fun
& film was really good too!  

[Jins]

Care to share your pic m4sure ??  

[Chris DiCicco]

I Got and listen to IF by Viggo and was pretty blown away by the loops and such what with my poltical weirdness, I gotta find something to fill the void after I get finished with HST books that are on my shelve collecting dust... furthering I injoyed this recording.

THANK YOU! everyone for reminding me/us/them about it on this forum.

Saw HoV yesterday, go see it, its really good, did not see plastic trout... GO SEE IT! ANYWAY

[gkg]

tickets are in hand for tomorrow - looking forward to it!  was surprised when VM suddenly turned up on Daily Show - wasn\'t paying attention to what the line up would be last week - quite the hoot... i do want to know just where John Stewart got the notion of Viggo getting himself "unlaid" though... unless that meant he was cancelling their plans for the night?  

i\'m KIDDING! please, no nasty emails... it\'s a joke folks... but really, "unlaid"  

[oldfolkie]

it\'s a joke folks... but really, "unlaid"  

*bites tongue really, really hard* ROFL!!!

I thought it was Buckethead that was raised with chickens...oh, wait, not that kind of unlaid?

[gkg]

LOL!!!  either way, "laid" is one of those things that\'s kinda hard to "undo"!

[Chris DiCicco]

I hope DC Diredtors Cut has bloopers and or a gag reel parts of HoV were funny...

I.E. the plastic trout.

I don\'t know? Daily Show Viggo and John Stewart OH MY!!!

Chris

[gkg]

yep - rubber fishes and loads of fun - the Daily Show.  i hope the DC has fun stuff too - we\'ll have to wait and see.

we are actually going to AHOV tonight - we rarely go to movies since it\'s cheaper to wait and Netflix but... we love Cronenberg et al so off we go to plunk down our $25-30 (hmmm... tickets, parking, treats - better take a $50, eh?).

well, well, well - the movie rocked!!  DC did it again - wonderful think piece about so many levels, for me most especially what love and self-esteem mean.  NOT a violent movie really - nothing like the little network TV we watch (CSI could teach people a lesson in how much blood is too much - and i happen to like the original show).  as for the sex - it was done very well - not raunchy but full of passion.  he hit the nail on the head with this one.  VM is right - this could well be the best movie he\'s been in - certainly it\'s right up there from among the ones i\'ve seen.  also, and as someone in their 40s this is important - VM and Maria Bello really score one for the mid-life marrieds in terms of the everyday love and depth of passion.  she\'s not some implant queen, she\'s got an ordinary body that she doesn\'t get all shy about - it\'s a real body that does real things (and well!) - and he\'s not some steroid blowup doll, he\'s just a sexy man doing sexy things.

i came away hoping people will catch on to the depth of the movie.  it doesn\'t give you that "action hero high" or that "sappy love song swoon" - it gives you a hot dose of thinking and we could use a lot more like that.
