Pictures from the set of Eddie Murphy/Robert Deniro flick SHOWTIME!!!
Hey folks, Harry here with our first look at the set and look of the characters in the Robert DeNiro, Eddie Murphy, Rene Russo flick... SHOWTIME from the director of SHANGHAI NOON... Quint recently reviewed an early draft of the script... but now we have images... I'm hoping that it has some of the grit of 48 HOURS which while being funny... also was infused in some genuine thrills and chills... Well... we'll have to wait and see... Here ya go....
Hi Harry,
I was looking at some magazines yesterday and I found these three shots from the set of Showtime in the Star magazine. I believe they are the first pictures from the Robert DeNiro, Eddie Murphy and Rene Russo starrer. We put them on our site and thought you might also wanna use them.
Regards.

When is De Niro going to stop making movies with people like thi
by pupkin
It seems to me that the man responsible for Shanghai Noon is not going to have a particularly serious take on a cop movie, and De Niro has doubtless been drafted in to parody himself again. Someone please give him a decent role, all his Meet the Parents type stuff is such a waste. Get Dennis Hopper to play these roles.

With DeNiro currently overextended with current projects, it brings to mind the question that is on most of our minds;
-
Sad, sad, sad.
-
plumbing the darkest depths of the human soul. Now he wants to relax and make some fun, funny movies. What's wronmg with that? I don't care what anyone says, he's the greatest american actor.
-
De Niro is still the best actor there is and ever will, be. As an actor one would like to explore ones talent, and therefore the reason to Roberts comedy roles. i still think, like the most of u, that De Niros best roles, is the ones playing gangster, like in Goodfellas. but still De Niro is such a perfect actor that he can beform all types of roles, and that makes him the BEST....

So unless you applying for a job as his agent... lay off!

Analyze this and Meet the parents were incredibly funny but 15 Minutes is the worst piece of crap Ive seen in years. The fact that DeNiros character dies in the middle of the movie says it all.
What the fuck were the scriptwriter thinking??
The guy should have his ass kicked for writing a DiNiromovie and killing him off halway in to the story. And the story was bullshit!! Im european and its pissing me off that americans always have european badguys in their movies as if there were no american badguys out there. And if they have to have foreign badguys ina movie let them speak their own language.
Whats the matter with you americans? Are you so fucking stupid that you cant read subtitles?? Is that why russian or germain badguys speak english to eachother instead of their own language in your movies??
This is really pissing me off!! Not all europeans are badguys!! You americans are so busy talking about being the greatest country in the world but kids can get their hands on guns easily and kill eachother in highschools and youve got a moron of a president who thinks you should be allowed to carry a handgun into a hospital. A president who allowed 145 people to be executed. Most of them probably without a fair trial. Your shitty country sucks and Bush should be kicked the fuck out of Washington and they should put Clinton back in the white house. Bush: that triggerhappy moron who also wants to destroy big natureparks to find more oil should have his ass kicked so hard. Who the fuck does he think he is???
-
Bush is so dumb that he will take America straight to hell and you people deserve it for electing that mortherfucking idiot for president!!
You were soo busy critizising Clinton for having an affair. Like none of you have ever cheated on your loved ones. Give me a fucking break!!!
You completely ignored the fact that Clinton was the first president ever in the states who were against your sick law about weapons.
Instead you now got Bush, a religious man who believes in the death penalty (the more he can kill, the better) a man who allows kids to buy handguns and kill eachother and is busy destrying your nature in the first year he is president. A typical american. A complete fucking moron!! -
How did that go from a negative rant on some shit movie that nobody saw to your seething hatred of Georgie Bush, The USA, the American way of life, and so on. I (like most Americans) see the flaws and shortcomings in our president without letting it sour me on what is, for my money, the greatest country in the whole wide world. Period. Look, I'm no fan of George W. In fact, I think a lot of his executive decisions thus far have made him look an ass. But, pray tell me, sir, what in the holy living fuck does that have to do with "15 minutes"? It was a bad movie. So what. Nobody saw it. Get over it. Hans Gruber-hating motherfucker.
-
Could someone please tell de niro to stop making movies for a couple of years. This guy is often acknowledged as being one of the greatest living actors, yet look at his last few films, 15 minutes, that boring looking diving film and rocky and friggin bullwinkle. This trend has been going on for a few years now (ever since he started appearing in about 8 films a year) The guy needs a rest because he is too tired to tell the difference between good and bad scripts.
-
Just think about what I said:
Is your country really that great? Your country is the only country in the whole wide world where even kids can easily get their hands on handguns and kill eachother in highschools. What is so great about that??
Your country is the only one in the whole wide world where you make shitty remakes of european movies because the american audience refuses to read subtitles. That might not be the case for you but for many people that is the case. Im from Denmark and we made a movie called Nattevagten (Nightwatch) It was remade in your great country with a fucked up script that had removed a sexscene and a scene with a guy throwing up in a church because it was too offensive for the american audience. And the american actors replacing the danish actors sucked big time: result: a shitty movie, all because americans will rather destroy a good movie by making their own version of it than seeing the original movie and read the subtitles.
And why is it that european badguys always speak english instead of their own language? I tell you why, the same reasons you make your own versions of our movies and fuck em up: you dont wanna read subtitles.
Now thats fucked up!!
It really is!! -
And what about the fact that you have the death penalty in almost every state. And the fact that most men executed are black men. They never get a fair trial and they get executed simply because theyre black. Great fucking country you live in. A country that still has assholes like The K.K.K. A country that allow an asshole like Jerry Springer to host a sick fucking show with sick americans practically trying to kill eachother on the show.
A country where people eat burgers and frenchfries all the time and drink diet-coke at the same time and think that makes them healthy!!
A country that didnt like the only great american president youve ever had: Bill Clinton, because he cheated on his wife. It didnt mattered to anyone that he was a damn good president, because he cheated on his wife like thousands of other american men. Youre all a bunch of hypocrits!! -
I might be pissed at cow or indignant or something if he actually knew what the hell he was talking about. Sure he knows Bush is a moron, but who doesn't?

The way you so eloquently made your point with all of those well-researched facts and sources to back up your concise argument... BRAVO! You didn

It's Like Bill Muarry Said, Cow-Boy, We Americans Are Descended
by buzz maverik
We are what you can't handle and never could. Inbred monarchies? No thanks. Socialism? You mean my shotgun belongs to everybody? I don't think so. Legal hashish? Well, that part's pretty good....
Actually, I'm a bit of an Anglophile but it's only because their literature is so damned good, the class system really sucks. Sure, we have guns and kill each other, we're not saying we don't get a little rambunctious. Some Europeans get it, but the thing you anti-Americans don't get is that you couldn't make it here. It's too intense. Ask anybody who has immigrated here. You have to bust your ass so hard just to be average in America. Sure, I'd like to work four hours a day and have coffee for the next four hours but I have to put in those 8 hours here at my computer talking back, now don't I, Danish-boy? (Anybody else think he's not going to get the humor here?) I'm going to go talk to some Australians. We understand each other. -

If You Had The Slightest Understanding Of America, You Wouldn't
by buzz maverik
Stand around in field around here, somebody's gonna come along and milk ya and make hamburgers out of ya. If you were an American, your user I.D. would be something that had power over the cows like "Magic Spatula". I want you to go change your user I.D. to "Magic Spatula", post a few things and come back and tell me that you don't feel better about yourself. On the other hand, Danish pancakes rule! Fuck this! Who wants to road trip up to Solvang, CA with me right now! We can make it by the time the pancake house opens! I'll have the pancakes with some of that killer Danish sausage they make out of moles or whatever.
-
By the way, not everyone drinks and take heroine here. Those girls you were talking to are full of crap. Maybe its like that in Sweden and Norway. I dont know. But not here.
And anyone can get a job here. There are unemployed people but not many.
You think we pay too much in taxes? well let me tell you what we get for that money: free hospitals, you dont have to pay to go to the hospital here if you need surgery. Students get money for going to school so they dont have to work while they study. We can even get loans to help us through school. And school is free here. Over there you have to pay to go to college.
If people are unemployed for awhile, they get money every month to get by untill they find a job again. Over there people are screwed if they lose their jobs. In my country we take care of our own.
In your country if you have an insurance through your work and youre fired and lose that insurance youre screwed. Lets say youre in an accident and you need lots of surgery. No hospital will take you in if you dont have an issurance. Now thats sick!! You might pay really low taxes but whos gonna take care of people if they lose their jobs? You have no safetynet over there, in your oh so great country, if something goes wrong.
-
I only picked it because all the ordinary names were taken. Its like hotmail. You guys know what I mean. Youre right alot of people from my country wouldnt make it in your country because the government doesnt take care of people who loses their jobs over there. Because you pay so littkle in taxes
-
...are we still talking about movies?
-
First of all, I
-
Ok... Can we talk about movies please ? (don't worry: I'm from Belgium...)
-
your whole discussion about wich country is the greatest, will lead u to nowhere, because every country has flaus, and you will never have a perfekt country. I am from Denmark like Cow, and would agree with him on, the wellfare issue because, in Denmark we pay 51% in taxes, but we also take care of fugitives and old people, more than most countrys, maybe Denmark is a little country, but we still have a almost perfekt infrastructur. lets not discuss this stupid issue anymore, instead lets talk about Deniro, who is the greatest actor living even if his making shitty movies.

Hey, There's A Russian Terrorist On This Site! Cool! I'm The Cop
by buzz maverik
...Mrs. Buzz is the career woman whose okay job turned into an...okay career. Cow can be the police captain who doesn't like me because I'm such a loose cannon. The Edge can be the hotter, younger star the studios brought in to save this dying franchise. It'll have everything...explosions, car chases, showgirls, a wire fu fight, gratuitous nudity...This is so cool...I need a cool catchphrase like "Dospadonya, asshole!"

I'm The Cop On He Didn't Bargain For? Shouldn't That Be Cop On T
by buzz maverik
And Cow, never apologize! First rule of being an American. Dubya should have DEMANDED our spy plane back from China. We go to all the fucking trouble of reverse engineering that alien technology and he doesn't force the Commies to give it back! Harry Truman would have nuked 'em!And if your American girlfriend only practically cheated on you, you're lucky. That's why we American guys have to be such bastards. Gotta keep them American women in line!
-
What are all of my fellow "Americans" getting so uptight about? Did you vote for Bush? Well, then in my "American" opinion, you are a fucking idiot. Byt the end of this mans four years America will be in it's worst condition ever. Things are very nearly on the brink right now. You should all hate this man simply for the Republican stand on censorship. They will push that as far as they can because it places the blame on music, film and all other media outlets over the fact that with Republicans running the country more guns will be sold. More bombs will be built. Less money given to space exploration. Gas prices will go WAY up. All the countries we had built even DECENT relations with will fall to shit as "bad-ass" Bush opens his mouth and spews his Texas retoric. Sorry AICN staff, but Texas ain't like the rest of the country. I've been in 49 states, and trust me, it ain't like any of them. Look at China already: you do realize that bush talked shit about them in his campaign...uhhh, why would they want to meet our "demands"? Bush should have never even been allowed to run damn it! He just had the most money, won the prize. He will ruin our relations with most of the world within 2 years. Watch. COld wars will start all over again. GAHHHH!!! THE COW IS RIGHT!

His Daddy ran the Company, the C.I.FuckingA! He knows that E. Howard Hunt, G. Gordon Liddy and Woody Harrelson's Dad were the triggermen on the grassy knoll.(Which also makes Woody qualified to be President. Yaaay legalization! Of course, we just want decent hemp blankets and ropes). He knows that Roswell was a smoke screen for Corona and how long E.B.E. (extra-dimensional biological entity) survived in captivity. He knows who has climbed up and down on the Ladder. And he can apologize quicker than Bill "Sorry'bout That" Clinton.
-
........i'm still here hoping that Deniro DOESN'T die halfway through 15mins cause I was planning on watching that tonight.....
-
im afraid he does but you really shouldnt see it!! iot fucking sucks. its way too violent and the plot is ridicoulus. why deniro ever signed up for this crap in the first place is beyond me!!
-
Im glad some of you agree with me but I also wanna apologize to all the americans that I pissed off by critisizing their country.
As long as you hate Bush you dont have to agree with me on anything else :)
I do love american movies except crap like 15 Minutes and Men of honour. The latter is also a DeNiro flick.
I prefere movies that actually say something like: Seven and Fighclub and American History X. The 3 best american movies made in the last 6 years!!
