Bruce deserves to be in a REAL movie for a change by Mullah Omar	Apr 17th, 2007 06:14:27 AM
This sort of thrown-together stuff might be worthy of a chuckle, but the guy has charisma to spare and it's being wasted.
Bruce Almighty by Red Diver	Apr 17th, 2007 06:20:02 AM
He should make a movie based on his book, Make Love..the Bruce Campbell Way. I listened to the audiobook version where he narrated, that was one of the funnest books ever. Bruce rules.
Bruce... should be the first word in every post! by Franklin T Marmoset	Apr 17th, 2007 06:30:20 AM
Thanks for the review. The film is sounding much as I expected it to - cheesy fun for those of us daft enough to be in thrall to the chin phenomenon. Like Galaxy Quest, maybe, but shitter and with Bruce's chin instead of Sigourney's admirable cleavage.

Bruce, I love ya, but this is dumber than crap. My beloved genre needs more source material, not more camera winking.
Bruce - The Chin as his Nemesis by The Equalizer	Apr 17th, 2007 06:51:32 AM
Can you imagine the sequel to this where Bruce Campbell has to do battle with his older, English, protuberant chinned Nemesis, Bruce Forsyth? Nice to see you to see you! Only Brits will get this post.
Bruce Campbell's handshake... by Fuck The Napkin	Apr 17th, 2007 06:53:24 AM
Is the most awesome handshake in the world. When I met him his right hand started up above his head and zoomed down super-fast to meet mine perfectly with a loud CLAP sound, and the whole time he kept perfect eye contact with me. Then he squeezed just enough to let me know that he was by far the superior man, but not so much as to make me cry, shook vigorously and flashed that legendary toothy grin. If I was gay I would have ejaculated in my pants. As it was, I still got a big erection and couldn't sleep with a girl for two months.

Franklin T Marmoset by NachoNegro	Apr 17th, 2007 07:48:26 AM
That was probably Bruce's pitch to the studio, word for word : -"Exactly like Galaxy Quest, but not as good, and with my chin instead of Sigourney's tits".
The poster's screen name is "Optimus Prime"? by Otter	Apr 17th, 2007 07:49:06 AM

The Bruce by GOB Adama	Apr 17th, 2007 07:58:47 AM
1.) Ash... short for Ashley (even for males)... is a strong name? Only on Bruce, baby. Only on Bruce. 2.) "The 3 Amigos" premise is so simple and stupid that's comic gold every time. "Amigos"? FUNNY! "Galaxy Quest"? FUNNY! "My Name Is Bruce"? I am sure I will find it hilarious. 3.) I too have enjoyed a Bruce Campbell handshake. I also was honored with a headlock for a photo, which caused me to breifly make contact with his chin, transferring some of his power to me. I actually got more women and killed more demon/zombies than I had previously for about 36 hours. So say we all... or just me, I guess.
A Little Story About Bruce Campbell by PotSmokinAlien	Apr 17th, 2007 08:12:46 AM
an ex girlfriend of mine went to buffalo state and bruce campbell came up there to do some kind of presentation for his book whenevvr it was that that came out. and she worked doing tech or some fucking thing at the auditorium he spoke at and she and her friend saw him just kind of standing backstage after the presentation was over, and they loved the evil dead moves so they went up and basically just talked about that at him for 3 minutes straight without him saying a word, and they get sort of finished doing that, and they're like... so... what are you up to now? and without missing a beat, bruce campbell goes, "do you know where i can get some weed?"
"do you know where i can get some weed?" by GOB Adama	Apr 17th, 2007 08:24:41 AM
If a scene like that aint in his movie, they missed a golden comic opprotunity.

Bruce should be cast in a movie with Nicholas Brandon by CarmillaVonDoom	Apr 17th, 2007 09:33:43 AM
I've always wanted to see those two riff off of each other. Everybody knows Nick would have been the best Parker in a perfect Spidey movie.

Bubba Ho Tep cheese or man with the screaming brain cheese.BHT is amazing where MWTSB is absolute shit and I wouldnt even considered it if it not for bruce.Either way im seeing this but I have NO expectatons.
Origin of Bruce by liljuniorbrown	Apr 17th, 2007 10:15:16 AM
As a young college kid Bruce wanted to be an actor more than anything in the whole world. He took a job sweeping up at a Hollywood barber shop just to get a glimpse of some of his heroes. He came in to work late one afternoon, only to find Burt Reynolds and Clint Eastwood walking out the door. He was so excited to be able to shake there hand's ,but then the barber grabbed him and pulled him inside. He screamed at him for being late again and for making him have to lower himself enough sweep up the hair. He told him to clean up or he would be fired on the spot. Bruce took the dust pan in disgust and headed for the trash can until he realized it held the hair from both Clint Eastwood's head and from Burt Reynold's Mustache trimmings. He quietly placed them in the only container he could find,a small ziplock bag which held his pot. That night in a druken haze he smoked the pot and the hair. His body which at the time was slim and boney,began to grow huge muscles and a superhero like chin,even his dick grew six inches longer. He eventualy passed out from the pain. The next morning,by dawns early light, Bruce Campbell was born.He went in to work and punched out the barber.He took the barbers car back to his huge Hollwywood hills home to collect on money he hadn't been paid but used to be to scared to ask for.It was there that he ran into the barbers wife and 19 year old daughter. Then at the ladies request he fucked them both at the same time. On his way back to school he passed by a young man who's car had a flat tire. Seeing this nerdy guy struggle with the jack Bruce simply picked the car up with his right hand and changed the tire with his left. That young man,Sam,was so impressed he asked Bruce to come stay at his cabin with him,he was filming a documentary about a strange book he found in the cellar and the weird things that were happening in the woods. The rest is history.
Equalizer....Campbell Vs. Forsyth would be funny shit! by raw_bean	Apr 17th, 2007 10:19:55 AM
"Nice to see you, to see you nice!" "See this? This... is my boomstick!" "Oooh, give us a twirl!" "You're goin' down. Chainsaw." chainsaw noises "Good game, good game, didn't he do we-urrk-ellll...." "Groovy."

Bruce I love you by Sam Raimi's Car	Apr 17th, 2007 11:05:24 AM
Not is a gay way. Okay a little in a gay way.
Bruce spoke at my middle school in 82. by ArcadianDS	Apr 17th, 2007 11:19:43 AM
He was going to speak at our cafeteria about being a child actor in B list movies, and I was out in the hallway by the water fountain (the old porcelain one that looked like it belonged on an Atlantean submarine). So I went up to him and said, 'hi. so they're serving jello today and I like jello. Yesterday they had rice pudding and that sucks, right?" and without skipping a beat he said "Is it lime jello?"

Optimus Prime's rare appearance. by Optimus Prime	Apr 17th, 2007 12:12:19 PM
Yeah the name's an oldie, hasn't been used in years... I wrote one of the first Blair Witch Project reviews, that's how long it's been around. Check it: http://www.aintitcool.com/disp lay.cgi?id=3587 - Nearly 30,000 postings ago. But with the new movie coming out it feels kinda dumb to be using a name that Michael Bay is currently defacing... that's why I decided to use my real name too. Plus I'd like that slight bump in name recognition as a writer and filmmaker.
Check out the documentary on your son's ass? by www.valiens.com	Apr 17th, 2007 12:57:13 PM
No fucking thank you. Oh wait...you wrote "son Ash." In that case, NO THANK YOU. That said, can't wait for this. Who doesn't love the irony of Bruce Campbell spoofing his own shitty movies in what sounds like yet another shitty movie? I don't understand how Jim Carrey can take a steamer of a script and turn it into box office gold, but Campbell, who has similar physical comedy chops? Nothing. Nada. Zip. Cult status. It's unfair, man, unfair! Someone cast him as the lead in a GREAT FUCKING FILM. Is that so much to ask?

Fucking Kirsten Dunst!!! by pdennett316	Apr 17th, 2007 05:19:39 PM
Why does she want to ruin Bruce's career??? Selfish bitch. She should show up in Evil Dead 4 as all the Deadites and have to work for scale, just to make up for this atrocity. No make up or prosthetics needed, think of the savings!

Edward Norton is 'THE HULK''. by Filmrage	Apr 17th, 2007 07:55:05 PM
How come there is no post here about the casting for Bruce Banner in the next Hulk film? I'm happy with Edward Norton but the director is the French guy who made the exceptionally shallow, if semi competant, Transporter. I think The Hulk deserves someone of a higher calibur. Maybe they decided to go low brow after the navel gazing fest that was the Ang Lee version.
Only Bruce could pull this off by Hamtaro_Hentai	Apr 17th, 2007 08:09:29 PM
And possibly Samuel L Jackson. A movie that only works on geek fanboys? Yeah just Bruce. I'm seeing it the first week. I hope this movie make millions.
Hail to the Bruce by ironpony42	Apr 17th, 2007 08:12:13 PM
I keep seeing the "Cast Bruce in a "real" movie!!!" However, I recently listened to an interview with Bruce, and he flat said he's not into "hollywood" blockbusters. He'd much rather his talents go into a Million dollar picture rather than a 50-80 million dollar picture. I then saw him touch on that topic again on an interview with Craig Furgison - that one's on the UTube. He even made a crack about his "Herbie" movie. So I don't think it's people not casting or asking for Bruce to sign on to bigger movies, I think it's Bruce being true to himself and not selling out.
This guy is a jackass...Trust me. by Quake II	Apr 17th, 2007 08:30:03 PM
I had the pleasure of meeting the Diva known as Bruce Campbell during a screening of Bubba Ho-Tep last year. He smiles at his fans and sign autographs (NO POSED PICTURES!!!!!! he told management and even gently pushed a few people away that tried to get in close for a pic) and behind their backs he cracks jokes about them. Seriously. I stood there for 45 minutes watching this fuckhead mock his paychecks (aka fans). And you people worship him...Sad. He's a prick. During his Q and A he came off as very bitter. And if it wasn't for his college buddy Raimi, he'd be selling real estate in Denver.

Let's face it, we love Bruce because of Ash. His post Evil Dead stuff has been overall pretty sucky. Even Bubba is overrated. It's dificult to get excited about anything he's doing these days.
Ok so when do I get to see it? by AllPowerfulWizardOfOz	Apr 18th, 2007 12:05:37 PM
I own all that is bruce. Even the shitty movies he's been in, like Sky High. While I shouldn't say that's a shitty movie, more a kids movie still it's got Bruce. Yup I am a die hard. Also I've never seen a mention of "Jack Of All Trades" on this site. Maybe I missed it but it's classic Bruce.
Quake II... by Err	Apr 18th, 2007 01:12:30 PM
You sound awfully bitter. I'm sorry that Bruce couldn't cater to your every need of signing your 27 items and posing for pictures with you. Waaaah! It's like he has rights and he gets to determine when and how his image is used. fake gasp The horror!

Hey Err.... by Quake II	Apr 18th, 2007 05:44:54 PM
Nice try, but I was waiting around with a buddy who was hired to take photos of the event. I got NOTHING signed nor did I try. I watched him just being the diva he is for 45 minutes + and sat in on the Q and A session. Sorry to bust your bubble champ. I wouldn't let that ass-hat sign my balls if he paid me. And of the 30 or so celebrities I've met in my life...Bruce Campbell was the biggest asshole. Period. Keep worshipping him though. He needs your money.
Quake II by Err	Apr 18th, 2007 07:51:50 PM
So let me get this straight. You watched someone you detest for 45 minutes and sat in on the Q&A session of someone you hate? And of the 30 or so celebrities you've met, he's the worst? BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Wow, I can't believe that you wasted so much time on someone you hate. You must've looked like a tool waiting there, watching Bruce Campbell while he signed autographs for others. Then, you attend a Q&A session with him being featured. For someone you absolutely hate, you sure put in a lot of time seeing him. Also, you hate Bruce Campbell but decided to tag along with your buddy. What are you guys conjoined twins? You couldn't have been off doing something else? Pathetic.
Yeah Err.... by Quake II	Apr 19th, 2007 12:19:43 AM
I know you're baiting me, but I will resist as it's late and I'm in no mood to argue with a 12 year old on a work night...BUT wise ass, I didn't ever say I HATED Bruce Campbell. Where did it say that in my post? Find it and paste it in your next clever post. I said he's an asshole. Something I determined AFTER spending the evening around the guy. You are really defensive about this. Are YOU Bruce Campbell? Or just some pathetic fanboy that thinks Evil Dead 2 is an amazing film? Either way dude, I saw what I saw, I know others there I spoke with were shocked as well and one of our friends tried to play it off as "Maybe he's just having a bad day". Yeah, maybe. Maybe his whole career is a bad day. Now it's your turn to defend that douchebag yet again.......
