Gerard Butler: first look at 'Movie 43' and Big Brothers, Big Sisters appeal
First look at 'Movie 43'
Movie 43 is a prime example why it is good to have red-band,
NSFW trailers. Had this just been a green-band trailer the comedy
wouldn’t look nearly as funny (or off-the-wall). An anthology flick in
the tradition of The Kentucky Fried Movie and with a cast that looks to rival It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World, the comedy looks completely nuts.
Hopefully, this is a good thing, as looks can be deceiving. Heaven
help us if this is something like the craptastic spoofs (if you can call
them that) of Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer of Date Movie and Epic Movie infamy.
Sporting celebrities from Johnny Knoxville to Kate Winslet, this raunchy comedy took four years to make.When I first heard of the production I was intrigued because of the
talent assembled, wondering why celebrities like Hugh Jackman and Naomi
Watts would be involved with such a project. But then I remembered:
sometimes actors like to take a break and do something off the beaten
path and act stupidly for a change.
This red-band trailer below will either make you laugh or cringe at
the comic exploits. But even if you can’t make heads or tails of the
vignettes, you should at least crack a smile. I mean who could resist
Naomi Watts telling her home-schooled son, “You dropped your books,
f–kface” as she passes him on the stairs?
Stars of Chasing Mavericks for Big Brothers Big Sisters
Actors Gerard Butler and Jonny Weston invite you to change a child's
life for the better, forever, with Big Brothers Big Sisters. Butler and
Weston star in the upcoming 20th Century Fox and Walden Media film
CHASING MAVERICKS. CHASING MAVERICKS is the inspirational true
story of surfing phenom Jay Moriarity (Weston). When 15 year old Jay
discovers that the mythic Mavericks surf break, one of the biggest waves
on Earth, is near his Santa Cruz home, he enlists the help of local
legend Frosty Hesson (Butler) to train him to survive it. As Jay and
Frosty embark on their quest to do the impossible, they form a unique
friendship that transforms their lives, and their quest to tame
Mavericks becomes about more than surfing. Chasing Mavericks was made
with the help of some of the biggest names in the surfing world, and
features some of the most mind-blowing wave footage ever captured on
film.
