Unbelievably Awesome Next Project by David Gordon Green?!?!? Called YOUR HIGHNESS!!!

I'll be damned...

Sword and Sorcery is an underappreciated genre...I'm down for whatever I can get...even if it is parody..

I thank you, I'm here all week.

I'm still here all week though.....

That was the first movie my family ever rented to play on the VCR. I remember watching in fast forward and rewind just because I could. What was that star shaped weapon he threw called? That weapon was pretty bad ass.

...this sounds cool.

fuck this grammar shit. say no to drugs.

come on help me out here guys. fuck.

East Bound and Down is classic Danny McBride greatness. I was not blown away by Foot Fist way,but this show is great.

then I remembered that the last film these guys did together wasn't very good.

He played in Pineapple Express. It would be awesome if they both essentially played their characters from that film.

that this was only dreamt in your fat, drunken, diabetic, coma like stuper or can I really get excited?

It was called the Glaive...

And not an actual project. I can't even see how anyone would greenlight whatever the fuck that was....Even Warner Bros isn't that risky.

was called the Glaive.

There can be only one, assholes!

...that came up with this one?

Is that a universul symbol meaning you r teh ghey??!?! I see it on every talkback thread.

Drinking all that booze hopefully means you're doing well with the weight loss and everything. All my best, big guy!

" We haven't seen fantasy comedy period style since MONTY PYTHON & THE HOLY GRAIL, TIME BANDITS and to have one inspired by the already hilarious genre of 80's fantasy... the comedy gold is extremely rich" I know Green had nothing to do with the "Epic Movie" franchise, but even the most respectable filmmakers can churn out crap from time to time. I'm not going to get excited until we have some confirmation that this won't turn out to be "80's Fantasy Movie".

his action in Pineapple express was fairly weak (admit it guys, as awesome as that film was it didnt quite kick-ass action wise). If Green wants to do this right then I hope he is let off the leash as the second action film from previously nonaction guys is generally FUCKING AWESOME IX2, Dark Knight etc..).

Been enjoying Eastbound and Down, but can't help feeling the script is not as good as the cast (by a long way).

Then he puts on his shades all cool-like.

...Thoughts of Albert Pyun style madness, but hes 4 for 4 so far, so I'm in anyway.

Is the name I heard bandied about

Keep in mind PE was done on a comedy budget, not an action budget. I thought the action scenes were pretty good considering they had they were working with the budget of SUPERBAD.

We only spoke about it nearly a year ago... http://www.obsessedwithfilm.com/movie-news/your-highness-a-comedy-set-in-the-world-of-dragons-wizards.php

Awesome Fantasy films are a product of the 80s.

Fuck this guy and fuck anything he ever attempts.

This film will be shit.

I thought you couldn't drink with the lapband? Is everything alright with it?

I can't tell what the hell you're describing, Harry. Krull and Sword and the Sorcerer are in no way similar to Time Bandits or Monty Python and the Holy Grail. So much for drunk reporting. "Unbelievably cool news?!?" No. It would be if you actually had some information instead of a hazy alcohol-drenched memory.

If its not a comedy, that is. I've got ideas for a fantasy action flick myself that I'd hate to see DGG do first. So if its a comedy, I'm all for it.

noice.

like Krull was packed with after dinner mints? how is shit CG much worse than shit practical effects?

he seems to be moving towards odd comedies these days, with Pineapple Express, Eastbound and now this, and that's fine with me, he's knocking them out of the park. That said, his dramatic films are all fucking amazing movies and i can't wait for his next one.

:( R.I.P

It gets me worried. Even though they have nothing to do with the awesome sounding movie. Look at South Parks' homage to Heavy Metal. I would love to see something like that.

looked like a big piece of thing shit

David Fincher's animated Heavy Metal film.

This page deserves at least one mention of how completely fucking awesome this show is. And if I was standing next to DB, I would have told him just that.

The opening scenes to this weeks East Bound and Down were priceless. When he's recording his "book on tape",the nick names that he will no longer be called , fucking hysterical to me for some reason. "That man is gone,no more People's champion or the reverse apachee master,the man with the golden dick,dr.cock and balls,just Kenny Powers". That shit just cracked me up. Also his fight scene in Hot Rod is the only thing about that movie that made me laugh.

May she rests in peace. http://edition.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/ Movies/03/18/obit.richardson/ index.html

Danny said they smoke up and go fight dragons. the dragons are going to be stop motion. not that much of a scoop, dude.

Natasha was in NELL where she met her husband, Liam Neeson.

...is the funniest fucking show on TV right now...at least, now that Flight of the Conchords is coming to an end...

Is that bad that we can't even talk about it.

Gahhhhh-you nitwits always dissapoint-why are you people so fucking dumb?!? Huh? To not mention Beastmaster makes my thews pop and hunger for immortal battle!!!

even though it had uber hot mia sara plus pretty good emo soundtrack by uh..Bryan ferry PLUS probably the best Satan on Film before john Carpenters Prince Of Darkness-it was still completely weak...

Uhhh-this movie holds a special place in my heart because I believe it signelled the end of Disney's Macarbe streak of wicked brain warping "kid's movies" Not only did it feature really good practical effects-there's this one scene that will always haunt my dreams and warped my brain as pre-pubescent-child-good stuff :-)

Noooo!!!! But probably ages more gracefully than I give it credit for. Wargames ferris Buehler teams up with Rutger Hauer Post Blade Runner-and though a few good scenes-was also utter POO-good scenerey and cinematography-but was the first of barbarians should be rated pg because Sword and trhe Sorceror was so cool, but our focus group says we need more butts in the seat, and I have this idea my MBA professor proposes...

The first epic to be filmed entirely in this new-fangled 3-D process was the ultimate Sword and Sorcery epic that-Oh wait-wrong genre :-) nevermind!!!

Yeah, you assholes all play it off of your stupid computers-back in the day-I had a psycho D and D buddy who's father owned a freakin arcade. His dad would open up the coin slot and Sean would just sit there and play that motherfucker over and over agin-all streaming from this thingamabob called a *LASERDISC* (Yeah an arcade like in the original Tron-except i was a crappy pool hall) U CANNOT COMPUTE THE PWNAGE OF ACTUALLY MASTERING DRAGON"S LAIR IN ITS ORIGINAL STAND UP ARCADE FORM That is all...

The ultimate goddamned grandaddy of Ultimate Dungeons and Dragons movies!!! Starring a certain dewy-eyed newb of a thespian by the name of Tom Hanks, this thrilling feel good story pandered to the prevailing trends of 1980's Christian Fear-mongering. A polemic written by some nasty, crusty old-school Ann Coulter type jagoff slut back in the day, the script reads like a Jack T. Chick pamphlet, but soared far into the public consciousness as a media event. What makes it sooo good is obviously T. Hanks early performance where he plays a pathetic nerd with a *mental illness* who's fixated upon a certain Live Action Role Playing Game was only his first step to eventual Oscar greatness for his ultimate crowning achievement: Dan Brown's Angel's and Demons. Who could have known that playing a mentally ill (psycho)character would would be the first step to the ultimate Oscar lock? Perhaps we as fans will never realize the brilliant machinations that worked in Tom Hanks mind. Perhaps, he knew the only sure way to achieve Oscar greatness was something most Hollywood actors and agents never realized: The only sure way to achieve Oscar greatness would be a Threefold plan never attempted before in the history of Hollywood: 1)Play a Psycho. (RJ'sM&M) 2)Play a Man of homosexual Persuasion. (Philadelphia) 3)Play a Retard. (Forrest Gump) And the rest, as they say, is History. Bow before the Hanks-He out-Baled Bale before Bale even knew he was Bale!!! (Kidding aside-T.Hanks ruled in SPRyan and Green Mile, etc etc-but hey-even gods must feel the smite) -MLB

I don't get excited about anything till I at least see a screen capture.

I mean shit, his imitation is passable. But he doesn't have my physique or viperlike arms and lats. And trying to make it sound like I have a problem cumming in my pants when I touch a woman is just a low cheap comedy shot when in actual fact Danny McBride has none of my sexual charisma.

I just have to let y'all know that Kenny Fuckin Powers had to endure another screening of The Watchmen because his new date had already seen Taken and I felt like a pedo taking her to that Rock movie. And yet again, taking a date to Watchmen only resulted in a very dry handjob that we couldn't even finish cause I kept seeing Roarschock pour cooking oil on that dude's ass. That shit is righteously unholy, what the fuck happened to awesome movies like Superman IV with Robot Eddie Murphy and shit.

I recall watching it with derision when it aired on TV in '82, as I'd just started playing ad&d in the fifth grade -- in the South, mind you -- and had to bear the bitching of friends' religious nut parents about the "devil-worshipping" game I was enticing their kids to play. Read the book years later in a library, after accidentally stumbling across it. Thanks for fanning that fire, Jaffe.

Satan is good, Satan is my pal. Let the chanting begin.

Wasn't.

Any word if HBO has renewed for a 2nd season?

I haven't seen it since I was a little kid. Rented it about 12 years ago and couldn't get past the opening scene. Saw that it's on OnDemand in my area on one of my movie stations and couldn't get past the opening credits. It's SO PAINFULLY DATED. I mean, it was an 80's one hit wonder away from being a bad music video. WHO THE FUCK THOUGHT THAT WAS A GOOD SCORE?!

Anyways. This could rule. But as much as I'm enjoying this "pot hitting the mainstream in a major way" surge we've had, I won't lie: I would rather someone made a heavy, taken-seriously adult fantasy epic. Hopefully Tales of a Sequel To Sword & The Sorcerer will be it.

It's so over the top and goofy.

Tangerine Dream did the soundtrack to Legend, not Bryan Ferry.

I just got a vhs copy of it for $2. Not worth it. Not even being high could make it interesting. The very last scene, where his friends go see him and he's referring to them by their character names and talking about going on an adventure-was fucking hilarious. I wish Tom Hanks would be funny again. 'BURBS II, DAMMIT!

Green not so much

I live like an hour away. I'll take these m'fuckers out on THE DRINK.

..was the dude in Sword and the Sorceror. Kind of a poor man's Tom Selleck. TKL-That's the point of the 1980's-it *was* interesting because it was all you had to look at. Is it an awfully, terribly embarrasing made-for-TV movie? Yes. It's awfullness is exactly why the 80s are history best put behind us all. However, if one were to take about 4 hits of acid and watch it back to back with Nightmare on Elm Street Part the Fourth, one could possibly approximate my rise to adulthood. Hail Satan! -mlb

2011 should be good, I think Thor will also be good and I can't wait for the third batman movie, I hope it';s called the dark knight rises
