Broadsheet Trailer Park: Tusk

What you may need to know:

1. An eager podcaster gets kidnapped in rural Canada and mutilated to look like a walrus. His girlfriend and best friend lead the search.

2. The idea for the movie came during the recording of a podcast by the film’s writer and director Kevin Smith. He and producer Scott Mosier were discussing a Gumtree ad where a homeowner was offering a room free of charge, if the lodger agreed to dress like a walrus. Sound familiar?

3. The post on Gumtree turned out to be a prank by poet and messer Chris Parkinson. Smith eventually hired Parkinson as an associate producer.

4. Johnny Depp and Lily-Rose, Kevin Smith and Harley Quinn. Bring your daughter to work day.

5. The entire cast of Tusk has returned for the spin-off Yoga-Hosers, an action adventure about two yoga enthusiasts.

6. Broadsheet Prognosis: You be the Eggman

Release Date: TBC

That’s the trailer for Interstellar but I was happy to watch it again.

I have one question for all involved:

Why?

And they’d probably answer- Why not?

  I’m fairly sure their answer would be along the lines of “Because we don’t have to make an effort anymore”

Vaguely disappointed at the lack of apparent Fleetwood Mac.

I wondered if it would have that song :D

I love Kevin Smith. He seems like such a cool guy and a lot of his movies, such a Clerks, Chasing Amy etc., I loved.

He’s seemed to have lost it though.

His last good movie was in my opinion Clerks 2. That was 2006.

The Bruce Willis buddy-cop movie Cop Out was one of the worst films I had ever seen. Admittedly he didn’t write it. But, my word, it was poor.

Then his horror movie Red State was, while it was a ballsy move for Smith, it simply wasn’t a good movie (despite Michael Parks and John Goodman delivering fine performances).

I’ll approach this one with caution.

His Q & A DVDs are absolutely hilarious. Check it out if you haven’t seen ’em before.
