This was on WGN this morning, I imagine it's the same set up for all network junkets. I see Jay, Spike Press, Crosshair, AA... who else is in there?
Great hair style Drrrreeeewwww.
yeah jason - BIG congrats to your sister. the early reviews are amazing. Neko and I have being seeing the early talk show circuit with Drew Barrymore and have seen quite a few clips. Looks like a great film. One of my buddies is part owner of an Austin flat track team and i hope this reinvigorates people back into roller derby - sort of fell off a few years ago after a huge boom.
have fun at the parties!
Congrats to the product placement postermajiggery, but it's Juno 2: On Wheels. I call bullshit.
I'm a derby widower, so I've heard lots of reasons this movie is a fail.
From technical accuracy to girls not being paid or credited.
I ran into Drew Barrymore in a Barnes & Noble in NYC in 93. I was totally dumbstruck by her hottienesses.
Oh, man, it started the first night of a flat track tournament at a 'special screening'. The movie itself went well. "Oh there's so-and-so." Stuff like that. Credits rolled and that's when it got bad. No ones name appeared. The Detroit girls made up the packs in most bout scenes and they weren't credited. Then Eve's stunt-double, Sk8 Outta Compton, who lives here wasn't credited and still hasn't been paid. She's a pro stunt woman. She's in Zombieland, at the same time even. In the junket interviews all the star girls, including Eve, say they did their own stunts. Not hatin', just statin'.
It's like if Died Young Stayed Pretty were shot by some outsider and they called in a bunch of GP folk to consult and submit work. Gets everyone all hyped about how great it will be and what a huge boost in exposure it'll be. Not some unsettling documentary about eccentric weirdos—but a positive uplifting feelgood event. And then said, "I did all that," at the interviews and didn't credit anyone and stiffed a few folks to boot.
Ellen Page is flippin annoying! I wanted to kick Juno in the head.
