HEATHERS writer, Dan Waters, to direct his own script for black comedy SEX AND DEATH 101!!!
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with a bit of news on a project written and directed by HEATHERS scripter, Dan Waters, called SEX AND DEATH 101. It's about a dude that gets an email with a list of every woman he's ever had sex with and every woman he will ever have sex with in his life. As you can imagine, that properly fucks with him.
I'm curious to hear more about this flick. I love HEATHERS, liked his script for BATMAN RETURNS and even have a soft spot for DEMOLITION MAN. I'd love for him to come back to form and knock this one outta the park. What about you? What do you think?

AND, this movie idea sounds great.
really great. -
I can't wait! Heathers is one of my feel-good 80's movies so this will be a treat!
-
Damn, wouldn't you be happy, I know I would...
-
Retrospectively, 'Heathers' seems pretty dated. That said, it's still pretty good. I'm interested in what Waters has planned for this concept.
-
Boy have I got to get out more.
-
I wonder if my list ahead would be longer than the list behind. Imagine if there was a guy on the list. And how cool when you met one of the chicks on the list and she was all festy and scary. tell you one thing, it'd make going on dates easier. "Well I'm never going to sleep with you, so I wont even bother being cool" Admitedly, that'd prob get you in the sack even quicker.
-
lots of little things to pick up on and some very clever concepts. pity the 3rd act didn't live up to the first two though.
-
zany!!!
-
If Martha Dumptruck will appear on that list.
This is good news though, a thumbs up moment. -
He's Mark Waters (Mean Girls)brother.

What happened to AICN's crack team of undercover spies?
by tony mike hall
Emphasis on the word "crack." Remember when? This site used to have a network of steely-eyed operatives that would've made the CIA jealous. They piped in the information right from the source - looting sets, breaking into offices. Now, all the posts come from Variety. AICN is turning into CHUD. If I needed help reading the paper, I'd do what George W. did and hire someone to translate them into monosyllabic words.
-
Hopefully not the Adam Sandler/ Random Hot Chick romantic comedy route. Though that would make bank.

by excaliburffolkes
Sort of like how knowing when you'll die would do the same thing. It's the uncertainty that makes it thrilling. Though I suppose the worst case scenerio would be if the email list he recieved was blank and he discovered he was doomed to die a virgin.
-
Something would go seriously wrong when you ran into or spoke to the woman.

oops, that was supposed to be "received" not "recieved".

"i" before "e" except after "c" and all.

Mmm. Winona Ryder and nude croquet. Mmmm. Damn her for never showing anything ... and for having an agent with the worst nose for scripts in the history of time. From hottest property around to damn near disappeared in less than 8 years. Nice job, dude.
And Nonnie,; we'd all forget the shoplifting thing if you'd just take that role as the crystal meth addicted bisexual nympho murderess that we know is sitting in your inbox. -
I love waters and Heathers but his directorial debut HAPPY CAMPERS was awful! (Except for Swain's ass).

by leiadown&fuckher
There, that's y little outburst for the day. One step closer to not snapping like a dried twig and killing everyone in my immediate vicinity with a spork for the next twelve hours or so. And as for the name thing, it's not that I particularly care, but damn that kind of shit happens way too fucking often on this site, especially of late. But then, this site doesn't even bother breaking news anymore, apparently it's become content to merely regurgitate what's been broken elsewhere, throw up a bunch of amazon links pretending to be dvd news, and the odd review or latest list that no one much gives a rats ass about. Where's all the breaking news? Wherever it is, it aint here. Not lately it aint anyway. ************************************************************************** As for Daniel Waters, I've enjoyed most of his work. Batman Begins, Heathers, Hudson Hawk (yes, I enjoyed Hudson Fucking Hawk), Demolition Man, Ford Fairlane (Okay, maybe I am a little crazy after all...), outside of Batman Returns I wouldn't rate any of them as great films, merely entertainments, but I had fun with them all the same. And sometimes that's enough. Never seen Happy Campers, this sounds like it could be fun though. Has potential anyway. We'll see.

by chickychow
and make a movie no one sees.. His Batman Returns screenplay is pretty crappy, too, and Heathers is funny once, maybe twice, but not thrice and certainly not post-80s.
-
That Quint always ends his posts with "What do you think?" and I can't decide whether this should make me feel included and cared about or whether it's his subtle form of condescension. Then, I guess, I remember that I don't care all that much. www.unseenfilms.com

by fluffyunbound
Or like you have to make excuses for it. Are you nuts?

Just don't have sex with her and you will live forever. Of course the twist will be, because you think you are immortal, you take risks and end up in a terrible car crash. And as you lay there on the side of the road, Bea Arthur stradles you and, literaly, fucks the life out of you.
-
It was a cool action flick, so what's the beef?
-
I just came a little, just thinking about that...

Demolition Man was a better Judge Dredd film than Judge Dredd!
by pokadoo
Heathers is one of my all-time faves, so i'm excited about this. Didn't know Daniel Waters was related to the Mean Girls director. Explains a lot.
Oh yeah, i also like Ford Fairlane and Hudson Hawk too. Both are fairly crap films with ace dialouge. So is Batman Returns, for that matter. -
Instead of simply trying to avoid Bea Arthur, you could always simply murder her. Then you would need some seriously ironic, Oedipus Rex type shit to go down before the prophecy could be fulfilled. Like you get sent to prison for murdering Bea Arthur, and your cellmate is some Andre the Giant sized guy with "Bea Arthur" tatooed on his dick, and he fucks you to death.

TRUE BELIEVERS UNITE!!! Demolition Man is fucking fantastic...
by rearden
It creates a future concept that will never quite leave youur mind.
Three cheers for Demolition Man. -
Nice to see Daniel Waters working again (the premise sounds like a riot). "Heathers" was good, and I have zero shame in admitting that I love (yes, love) "Hudson Hawk". (Let the flaming commence...)
-
In all ways, shapes, and forms, it seems that I disagree with everything you think, say, and do. Who "wants to... make a movie no one sees?" Besides that have you seen Kiss Kiss Bang Bang? Not the best movie ever, but a damned sight more decent than most of the shit that I saw last year. In addition, you must be brain-damaged with your opinion about Heathers. It's ridiculous. My wife first saw the film three or four years ago on DVD. She loved it. Last time that I checked, three or four years ago WASN'T the 80s. I watched it with her and laughed my ass off. So I guess that it IS funny "post-80s." Additionally, the script is amazing. I guess that there really is NO accounting for taste. While his post Heathers career has been awe-inspiring, like the man said, hopefully this'll be a return to form from a guy who showed much promise.
-
Now, I love Hudson Hawk in a really stupid way, but still, it's a bit of a problemo.
-
how can a movie with Wesley Snipes crushing dudes' chest cavities, Rob Schneider cracking wise, Benjamin Bratt as a dork, Dennis Leary giving his angry yet funny pov, AND Sandra Bullock running around in spandex NOT be worth watching? and who can forget the intrigue behind the mystery that is the 3 shells?

by fluffyunbound
"Now all restaurants are Taco Bell." Benjamin Bratt singing the Oscar Meyer commercial. Demolition Man is a CLASSIC. It is probably the 2nd most underappreciated genre film out there, after 13th Warrior.
-
Remember the Schwarzenegger Memorial Museum?
-
I never really knew why there was such animosity towards this movie ... I thought it was pretty damn hilarious. And I'm pretty sure Sandra Bullock was as hot as she's ever been in this movie.
-
was at her hottest in Time To Kill
-
In Demolition Man, what the hell did that mean anyway? Its always bugged me.

everyone thinks everyone else doesn't like demolition man?
by zombieslayer
How come everyone is acting like they're the only one who likes it, when everyone admits they like it? haha. I remember it was overhyped, but a cool action flick. Maybe everyone just thinks they're the only one so they can be the cool kid.
-
and i too have no idea what the three seashells were. or will be.
-
its subjective man, get used to it.
-
Unabashedly. Sue me. And I thought Happy Campers was very cool, too. Peter Stormare's announcement: "Someone in Bunk Five has been wetting the bed! I don't want to embarrass anybody but his initials are RICK JOHNSON!" That made me laugh for like a while.
