[b]Wes Andreson need Owen Wilson[/b]
I'm a bit nervous about the new Wes Anderson movie. I've been a long fan of Wes Anderson and the Wilson brother's films, but "Aquatic" was a let down. It was well directed and had very clever story, but it lacked the well written and well executed jokes of his former films, maybe it would of been better if he focused it as an adventure rather a comedy. I realized what was lacking in that fim was Owen Wilson was not involved in the script. Wilson has long been underrated for his sarcasticly dry humor that more than often works, even in his buddy flicks with Jacky Chan. If he is not involved in the writing for "Darjeeling" as was the case in "Aquatic", I fear it would be missing the humor that make Anderson's films work.

I think The Darjeeling Limited sounds pretty sweet. I'm not really a fan of J-horror films but with the addition of Ed Harris and Gabriel Byrne I'm starting to get excited for One Missed Call. I've been looking forward to American Gangster for a long time now and I really like the addition of Carla Gugino but I don't really give a shit about the other two.

wait, Mel Gibson had a Holocaust miniseries in the works? anyone else not surprised? i'm waiting for his Ten Commandments remake. only this time, Gibson changes the ending so the Jews don't escape so "it has a happy ending."

C'mon. The poor guy was raised by a borderline psychotic, alcoholic Aussie scum-f%#k. Mel is obviously sick and needs some help. Good for him to recognize it. I do not believe that ANYBODY'S "true self" is that of hate. I think the voice of hate is that person's OWN pain and self-loathing speaking. In this particular case, alcohol was the catalyst...does it excuse it? No. But let's cut the guy some slack. Sure he's a bit of an egomaniacal freak...but hasn't the poor bastard been in the public eye since he was in his early twenties? The dude need's a break from it. I hope he disappears for awhile and focuses on himself and his family and leaves Hollywood behind. He doesn't need it anymore.

Actually, Mel has publically acknowledged that the Holocaust happened. I think you are confusing him and his father.
