Elysiumposter

The second trailer for the upcoming Neill Blokamp-helmed, Matt Damontastic all-action, sci-fi eyeball-pleaser from Sony Pictures, what sez:

In the year 2159, two classes of people exist: the very wealthy, who live on a pristine man-made space station called Elysium, and the rest, who live on an overpopulated, ruined Earth. The people of Earth are desperate to escape the planet’s crime and poverty, and they critically need the state-of-the-art medical care available on Elysium – but some in Elysium will stop at nothing to enforce anti-immigration laws and preserve their citizens’ luxurious lifestyle. The only man with the chance to bring equality to these worlds is Max (Matt Damon), an ordinary guy in desperate need to get to Elysium. With his life hanging in the balance, he reluctantly takes on a dangerous mission – one that pits him against Elysium’s Secretary Delacourt (Jodie Foster) and her hard-line forces – but if he succeeds, he could save not only his own life, but millions of people on Earth as well.

We’re so there.

Nollaig – the owner/occupier of this masterfully constructed wooden trailer (currently in Kilkenny and headed toward Leitrim) sez:

I had wanted to build a house for a good few years but didn’t own a piece of land to build it on so it seemed an obvious choice to build a house on wheels.

What you may need to know.

1. It’s been four years since In Bruges (2008). Meaning, it’s been four years since Colin Farrell starred in a good movie.

2. Lest we forget, Martin McDonagh won an Oscar for Best Short Film for Six Shooter (2004). Respect.

3. Seven Psychopaths was meant to co-star Mickey Rourke, who threw a mickey fit over cash. They got Woody Harrelson in instead.

4. Tom Waits.

5. Tom Waits

6. McDonagh did a stage play called A Beheading In Spokane, starring Crazy Chris Walken and Sam The Rock Rockwell, both of whom feature here. We want it on the Abbey stage NOW.

7. The Farreller was in Dublin last night. This one’s for you, Bullseye.

8. Tom Waits
