Waiting in anticipation...


This is it.. I hereby declare THE most anticipated movie of 2006 in my movie calendar --> Southland Tales. Directed by Richard Kelly, the director of the mind-bending, psychological science fiction cult masterpiece and one of my all time favourite flick, Donnie Darko.

Why? For starter, look at the cast. The Rock, Stifler and Buffy in a political arthouse movie? Never crossed my mind. There's also the comedic pros Garofalo, Larroquette and Lovitz. Kevin Smith is in the movie. Mandy Moore (..yess!) is in the movie. Heck, even Justin freakin' Timberlake is in the movie. What more could u ask for..?

But most importantly I want to see this movie simply because it's Richard Kelly's. Everyone who loves Donnie Darko will definitely wants to see the follow-up to THE cult movie of our generation. This time he's going at it big time. It seems that the film storyline is so epic that he is also planning to release not one but THREE graphic novels that tells the first three parts of the story and the film will tell the final three parts. Not just that, but the website itself has a story to tell complete with puzzles and amazing interactive sequences. Phew..!! This is going to be huge.


Waiting with bated breath...

Tengokkan pelakon, mmg haram aku takkan tunggu, (i mean, the rock,man, c'mon) tp, mcm ko jugak, aku akan tonton sbb ini filem David Kelly. Hope it's as good as DD.

btw, Edd, mind aku dah lama di-fuck dek website DD tu. One of my favorite. Even wallpaper aku sekarang pun gambar DD.

Edd, Southland Tales; this long list of many celebrities cast reminded of Terrence Mallick ;The Thin Red Line. Actors wanna be in that movie because of the director. From Sean Penn, Nick Nolte, Ben Chaplin, George Clooney, Jim Caviezal,Adrien Broody,John C Reily, John Savage, John Cussack, Woody Harrelson Jared Leto and the list on and on. Even John Travolta acted in it.

Cant wait for this movie coming up soon. I am a fan of Donnie Darko.
