Hillary Clinton & Chloe Grace Moretz
Suck it Trump! The Democratic Convention is shaping up to be way better than the Republican one. What's that you say? How can it be when you had such power players as Scott Baio, Antonio Sabato Jr. & Natasha Badanov - Bwa ha ha ha ha ha! Yes moose & squirrel you can attend the DNC without fear of retaliation, and a special note to Michelle Obama who will be there supporting Hillary Clinton, no one will be copying your homework. Hillary knows how to werk it, she can probably twerk I suspect too. In addition to the first lady she is reeling in the women and youth of America with, well someone named America, speaking on her behalf, America Ferrera and her soul sister Lena Dunham in tow.
Also let's not forget Chloe Grace Moretz will be along for the ride too. Take that RNC! Be there or be, well, um, Republican aka Tragic July 25 - 28 when Philadelphia becomes the city of sisterly love. I'm With Her at: https://www.hillaryclinton.com
But Does He Make You Breakfast In The Morning?
Zac Efron & Friend
And they called it Puppy Love. Whilst doing ADR (audio dialogue replacement) for Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising, Zac Efron was getting sugar kisses from a puppy equally as cute as he is. He posted a video of himself and man's best friend on his Instagram saying to his new crush: "Oh, who loves ADR for Neighbors?" Oh, who loves ADR for Neighbors, Neighbors 2?" - the pup kept licking his face, oh to be that dog, woof! The sequel to, like duh, Neighbors is set for release May 20. Featuring an impressive comedic cast of returning rogues, consisting of Seth Rogen, Rose Byrne, Dave Franco, and Lisa Kudrow, plus freshmen such as Selena Gomez, and Chloe Grace Moretz. So how does the Basset Hound fit in? Hmmmmmmmm?!?! Go Instagram with Zac at: https://www.instagram.com/zacefron/?hl=en
"I was told I was too pretty for "Carrie" - Chloe Grace Moretz
That being stated, while some may still think that Ms. Moretz has made a career out of playing outsiders, much like her attractive Academy Award Nominated co-star Julianne Moore, so let's shove that shit theory out the window.
After all Chloe has portrayed a prepubescent expletive spewing assassin named Hit Girl in "Kick Ass" uttering such zingers as "Fuck you, c#nt" and a 12 year old vampire with a thing for a 12 year old boy in the American re-make of "Let The Right One In".
So get over the "pretty" thing and get past it, now.
When I initially heard about this project, I had some hope, I mean hey two of my favorite actresses in the leads and Directed by Kimberly Pierce of "Boys Don't Cry" fame...I was excited! "Carrie" after all is a female story and with a strong female Director would give a quite provocative and Feminine twist on it. Translation, no gratuitous lawn scenes below the female waist, and teenagers who are not 25-30 years old.
And let's not forget bullying with updated technology.
Don't get me wrong, I love the Brian DePalma film, it's a classic for sure, but...
Margaret & Carrie White, Hitting the PR Trail
There is always something new and unique that can be done with everything in the correct hands.
With the release of the present full length trailer, I am way more cautious about the prospects of this adding anything that is truly new or necessary.
My problem? With the exception of a few twists, the scenes they show in the trailer look like an almost shot for shot remake of the original.
Please don't disappoint me and millions of other fans of the horror genre and the original. Don't let this turn out to be a piece of dreck redo like pretty much all the others.
Proceeding with caution at this point, so much so, it will have to get really good reviews to compel me to pay at the box office, if the reviews are unfavorable, I will wait for video, perhaps.
Check out the trailer and see what you think...
PS - MGM and Sony have definitely come up with a great marketing campaign, kudos.
