Mr_Saxon - LOL!!!! That was funny!.. THanks man!

MetalMickey - I think Samuel L. Jackson was unavailable for the movie.. And we all know that NY only as white folks in it.. eesh!.. I kinda noticed it also, and also felt like this wasn't the actual NY city.. Guess it's a huge mistake on their part not to have the actual look and feel of NY since it's such a diverse culture. Will be missing something that's for sure.

No Woody Allen?

New York, Fuck You

They should have found a sentiment more fitting to New York, instead of simply recycling the title used to describe the city of love. Also, alternate roster suggestions: Martin Scorsese Spike Lee Sidney Lumet Noah Baumbach Julien Schnabel Brian De Palma oh wait, they have better things to do...
New York is NOT the city it used to be and could have been.

I did not see a single black or brown face in that trailer above! Shee-it! Diversity doesn't even exist in the NYC of the movies (unless you drive a cab)! Take it from someone who lives here; NYC died back when Ghouliani and his cronies destroyed the culture and disneyfied the shit out of it. Nightlife is dead, The MTA keeps raising the subway fares, the NYPD is trigger happy, public funding for AIDS programs have been cut, all the "artists" are trust-fund hipster d-bags, off-broadway is suffering, Broadway is becoming like H'weird with no original productions, and the int'l tourists are rude and thoughtless turds. Ghouliani and Bloombitch turned it into a playground for the rich and slowly driving the working class out with high rent and prices. No 3rd term for Bloombitch and his administration. Fuck him!

Worth a watch at the least for what I think was a very fleeting shot of Christopher Walken in a trench coat.

And this looks like a bit of a joke. The soundtrack alone should tell you that this isn't going to be any sort of incisive look at what people actually love about their own city, and then considering that the producers didn't even bother hiring interesting New York directors...

It made me think of that spot Feist just did for Sesame Street. Did anyone else see that? That thar was some good stuff. Maybe not as good as "Don't Bring Your Ones To Town" when Johnny Cash was on Sesame Street, but pretty good nonetheless.

...the stories took place there, and it was the substantial, inspiring background. But this film seems corny and contrived like 'God, I love New York' type shit. Give me a break.
@ LeFlambeur: Baumbach would have been dope.

Now, I don't know. Mayor Bloomberg, bottle service, "artists", Apple store, skinny jeans. Use to be able to see Blondie, Talking Heads, Grandmaster Flash. Now? Vampire Weekend, Artcic Monkeys, MIA. This town needs an enema!

Wasn't Zach Braff supposed to direct a segment of this? Hollywood Reporte said so. Was it cut, did he drop out, what? Cue comments that A) This movie was already pretentious enough, or B) General "thank God, he sucks" comments.
I'm waiting for "I fuckin' loooove Detroit, man!"

Mr_Saxon - I want to make a movie called Mr_Saxon I Love You for that Michael Bay idea I thoroughly enjoyed PARIS, JE T'AIME after seeing it at a French film festival in Champaign, IL for my French history class. It turned into a nice date with my girlfriend and it was a nice movie. It wasn't a masterpiece by any means, but it was definitely worth my money. Even though (begin stereotype) this incredibly rude French guy at the screening tried to steal our seats, then stepped on my girlfriends feet on his way out of them. I'll probably end up seeing this based on my liking of PARIS, but I agree that what made PARIS good was that it was interesting shorts using the city as a backdrop, not vignettes about people jerking off to the skyline. Also, it kind of bums me out because I'm sure I'll never get to see CHICAGO, I LOVE YOU; Chicago may be called the Second City, but I've been to New York. And New York is no Chicago.
This is a terrible film.

Like the t-shirts? Also they should have got Takashi Miike. Williamsburg hipsters bloodily impaling themselves on the spire of the Chrysler building while they compliment the art deco architecture with their dying breaths. Then the NY subway becomes a giant snake. It would be funny if Ratner made the best film though...
Some dumb black people, please!

Is this movie gonna handle urban blacks like so much of pop culture today? If you want e to believe in the NY these people are putting together then I need to see some blacks that are just dumb. Not only do they exist but they are everywhere in ny. Stupidity is colorblind. Please no more streetsmart kids, or thugs with big plans and business acumen.
I want to see their next installment: "DARFUR I LOVE YOU"

Don't get me wrong, I'm a big mush head and I live in NYC....but this just smacks of trying too hard. There is nothing less romantic to me then a film SCREAMING HOW ROMANTIC IT IS. But I will hold my ultimate judgement for when i see it. :-)

"Paris Je T'Aime" didn't have a bunch of French directors. It was a bunch of foreign directors, in this case American, shooting stories about a foreign city. The only reason they all sound so familiar is because y'all are American! So it makes sense to have a bunch of foreign directors shooting stories about New York. Stop bitching.

but there is Shita LaBlah again? Trade him in for Eddie Murphy hitting on a hooker any time.

BTW not every movie needs a certain amount of races in it. End racism yo!

in the late 80s, early 90s, I believe it was 3 or 4 shorts by Woody Allen, Martian Scorcese...and Coppola maybe
