Dreamworks Makes POOP!!
Merrick here...
Caleb Wilson and Matt Allen (FOUR CHRISTMASES) will adapt Scott W. Cohen's book EAT, SLEEP, POOP (pre-order HERE
) for Dreamworks.
"Poop" is a witty guidebook by Beverly Hills-based pediatrician Scott W. Cohen. Scribner is publishing the book March 30.
The first book of a planned series is a common sense guide for parents with newborns. It also follows Cohen's experiences raising his own child, which in many ways defied much of what he learned in medical school and ultimately altered how he advises his patients.
...says THR HERE.
Walter Parkes and Laurie MacDonald (the SWEENEY TODD movie, GLADIATOR) will produce.

Sounds like another beat idea from geniuses in Hollywood.
-
*the* geniuses
-
A zen master once said that and so far it has proven to be a universal truth.

Is a TERRIBLE fucking idea. I just don't understand the logic. "Hes Just Not THat Into You"? That book about what Earth will be like when humans are gone? Fuck me, why not pick up something original from your spec script pile for once.
-
I wouldn't advertise that to drum up interest.
-
POOP was a documentary about AICN...cuz thats all they seem to do here now.
-
So how far away are we from 'Ass' the movie like in Idiocracy?
-
when did AICN start covering ALL movies and not just geek stuff? WGAS WGAF.
-
At least we know they're capable of making crappy films.

by ricarleite2
This time its suppose to show people that having children is stupid and a waste of time a money?

I thought they were going to make the long-awaited
by fa_tass_dinomolester
adaptation of "Everybody Poops". This is just disappointing...
-
Not a dry eye in the house when the couple have to have the baby "put down".
-
oh yes, please involve him in this! LET HIM MAKE SHIT!!!
-
CGI animated classic, as obsessed with body fluids and excretions they are.

I thought this was a Triumph the insult comic dog
by grammaton cleric binks
movie. Why would anyone want to see this. I have three kids. I've lived this. I don't need to see it.
-
exploding diapers
-
Only white, upper-class Americans think dropping a brat is cause enough for a "how to" bestseller...all those Chinese, Indians and Africans seem to find it a fairly straightforward process...
-
Zinger!
-
If they can make a fliq bout Where the Wild Things Are, Everyone Poops should be on the table then.
-
You got some commercial clout from Iron Man, critiqal clout from your entire career and you're fresh on people's minds cuz of Crazy Heart, use some of that pull to make The Giver! I wanna be Rosemary!
-
Yeah! Jackass for kids rules!
-
Mel's big fuckin face
-
In Idiocracy, soon we will hear: " and the Best Picture Oscar goes to...ASS!!!!"
-
you said Poop.
-
Dreamworks reaches for the stars.
-
When will we get an adaptation of Matt Hooper's book "Swim, Eat, Make Little Sharks"?
-
...then poop.
-
and Morgan Freeman as the Shit!
HA HA! -
Except Most people Call it Transformers 2
-
I don't want to relate to movie like this in any way shape or form
-
Well, at least now Fox will have some competition.
-
2 poops down
-
It, too, is Poop. Even poopier than I expected.
-
Merrick, before you post another story about a film, stop and ask yourself: does this film have zombies, space ships, Romans, aliens, Nazis, robots, jet packs, superheroes, dinosaurs or ninjas in it? Is a cool actor or director attached to it?
No? Then *DON'T FUCKING WASTE OUR TIME WITH IT*. -
We are over-crowded as it is. Please no encouragement. As it is, it is bad enough that teen girls are having babies and naming them either Bella, Jacob or Edward just because they see a shitty movie about PG-13 vampires. Fuck me.
-
Hate to put a major damper on the Poop talk-back.
-
Been waiting for a long time for a studio exec to admit what they're selling to the public.
-
RIP JD
-
Sorry to hear it. I rented that turd and felt sorry that the once great David Zucker was behind it. Barely a chuckle or laugh in the entire film, no matter what your political leaning.
-
In The Loop or Team America to cleanse your palate.
-
Why didn't AICN make an article about it? Had corn and everything
-
just look at the audience around you. thanks to idiots and morons who can't be bothered to hire a babysitter for 2 hours, there are at least 2 or 3 screaming, pooping babies in the theater every time i go see a movie.
-
...as in "Ain't it Phony News"...
-
you know you want it.
-
is, sadly, becoming more and more accurate every day.
-
The guy ritually abused his family, went Howard Hughes-level nuts and became a veritable shut in, married a woman (albeit briefly) who was a lesser member of the Nazi party and wrote the 20th century's most OVERRATED novel. RIP JD? FUCK YOU!
-
Parents in Beverly Hills don't raise their own fucking children.
That being said, I hope this film is being filmed in Spanish... -
For a second there I thought a studio finally started being honest about the quality of the movies they're putting out.
-
That is all.
-
Roland Emmerich and Fox will team up again to make the poop-filled disaster epic SHITSTORM.Maybe films based on fecal matter will be the trendy new thing in Hollywood after superheroes, vamps, and zombies become passe. How about a self-referential poopy-filled action + film noir combo titled WHEN THE SHIT HITS THE FAN starring Ray Winstone, Ben Kingsley, Brad Pitt, the Rock, Vin Diesel, and directed by David Fincher?Then there is always IBS: A Love Story, which could riff on the IBS afflicted character played by JK Simmons in The Ladykillers. If I remember correctly, he met his girlfriend at an IBS therapy retreat or something like that.

does this film have zombies, space ships, Romans, aliens, Nazis,
by lv_426
"does this film have zombies, space ships, Romans, aliens, Nazis, robots, jet packs, superheroes, dinosaurs or ninjas in it? Is a cool actor or director attached to it?"Some screenwriter sitting in a Starbucks somewhere out there probably read this and began plotting out a story by now, one that combines all this stuff into one big old mess of a screenplay. I bet the script will be done in a week or two. Off the top of my head, I'd guess it will be a 200 pager.

by thebaxter
will this movie be in 3D?
-
Corn anybody?
-
That's the question!
-

-
I've heard the recession and poor people offend her
So I can see her donating her excretions to Hatti or other offensive poor people -
Zing!
-
anytime the site posts anything about Transformers 3 or Shrek 12. Too bad, really, because IMO DreakWorks' films during their first several years as a studio were of consistently high quality...
-

-
And yes, the misspelling is intentional...

Get Jack Black onboard and you've got a movie people.

A Cronenbergian body-horror thriller about a dude who is so backed up, he will die if he takes a shit... like his shit is so massive it will rip his body into two halves.
