Did Jon Avnet save Pacino's life or something, save him from a speeding car and he owes him a favour? Because that's the only reason that makes sense for anyone, let alone Pacino, to be working with him. And Avnet= hairnet, always, when I hear his name.

I've never heard the words "badge" and "gun" used more times than in the preview for this movie.

Literally, Pacino's voiceover in the trailer goes something like,

"Where I come from, you make a choice between a badge or a gun. You respect the gun? You hate the badge. You love the badge? You fear the gun. Sometimes a gun looks like a badge. And sometimes, well a gun, it looks like a gun. But there's no mistaking, that a badge is more powerful than the gun. When I wake up in the morning, I find my hand on my badge, when it should be on my gun. I ask mysefl, What came first? The badge or the gun? The difference between a badge and a gun, is that a badge knows that he's a badge, but a gun- a gun don't know he's a gun. If you got a badge, and gun, all you really gots a gun. And a badge. One fish, two fish, badge, gun, badge, gun. Knock, knock? Who's there? Oh, a badge? I though it would be a gun. Good one."

Is a kill ever rightous?!
OK - maybe Andy Dick...

How bad is this movie going to be? Go down to your local Best Buy, or check out this past Sunday's newspaper circular online. With any, yes ANY DVD purchase this week, you'll get a coupon for a ticket to go see it.

Unfortunately, the coupon is also good for Traitor, which I had some hopes for.

@Dave J.: I wish Dennehy and Leguizamo were the main stars. At least they'd try.

DarkKnightShyamalan

#6 -- stop the business with the right/left, over/under name credit at the top. I KNOW that the trade-off for not being 'first', in the 'from-left-to-right'-reading world, is to be a little higher, but it just looks like someone couldn't line it up right.

OneWag

How about "WITH Brian Dennehy AND John Leguizamo"

I like Dennehy, but has Leguizamo made it to the "AND..." stage yet?

Dave J.

As an afficionado of scenery-chewing, I'm anticipating that this movie will be the Beijing Olympics of Ham.

I think the credits would have been shorter if the listed the people who didn't produce the film.

And does a movie really need that many producers? Or are they just dishing out credits to friends, well-wishers, and chiropractors of the people who actually made the film?

@JudgeFudge: Good work. I respect the badger over the badge, and the badger respects the gun.

FuriousD1

@JudgeFudge: Oh man, if only the writing were even a fraction as succinct and witty.

kookla

@JudgeFudge: Oh my god. I would actually go watch the movie if Pacino recited that monologue verbatim.

denominator

@NoGrumpys: The cast of "The Hills"

TurdBlossom

Only Five?

TurdBlossom

Oh wait, that's pretty much it.

OneWag

@Calraigh: I feel the same way about Josh Hartnet = hairnett. I do a hilarious impression of Harvey Weinstein yelling at his assistant to get me that Joss Hairnett on the phone.

OneWag

@JudgeFudge: How about we go back to my place and I badge the gun out of you?

Barbarella

Sweet fancy Moses, I thought the guy on the left was Tommy Lee Jones and this story was about some epic poster typo fuckup.

@RonMwangaguhunga: Good one, sir.

Wrapitup

Forget this mediocre crap. I want to see JudgeFudge's version of this movie, stat.

DarkKnightShyamalan

@OneWag: I would like to see that some time. Call me. No, really.

@DarkKnightShyamalan: Yeah, I'll fucking invest in it. Also, I'd want this, as the tagline, '' One fish, two fish, badge, gun, badge, gun. Knock, knock? Who's there? ''

Calraigh

I noticed this poster too... and thought that Al has finally been tranfigured into an old woman with the dramatic impact of the ladies I see lined up at the lottery counter, patiently waiting to cash in their social security checks for a handful of cardboard. One would hope that he doesn't wear those headband scarfs that are more suited to Mary Tyler Moore on the press junket again.

@TillieHarper: CAUSE SHE'S GOT A GRRRRRRRREAT ASS!

Best line evar from that movie. First time I saw it I nearly fell out of my chair laughing.

Dave J.

@Calraigh: I can totally picture that as the soundtrack to the trailer... that, and the bass-pounding heartbeat... over the usual super-quick fade-in/fade-out clips.

GOLD, I tells ya.

DarkKnightShyamalan

DeNiro is so f***able in Heat.

TillieHarper

@JudgeFudge: To which DeNiro retorts: "I think you're wrong buddy. I think you're way outta line. I think if I made you eat my gun then the badge would defeat its own purpose. I think the badge would be without a purpose, due to the gun of mine you just ate. I think my only recourse would be to have you eat my badge as well, and have a gun-badge omelette. You're a big hero now, aren't you? Big man, right? Walking around with a belly fun of guns and badges like your mayor of the city...New Badge Gunville or some fucking place. Well, listen here, hotshot, 'cause I've got a new nursery rhyme for you...

Hoo-Ahh, Hoo-Ahh! Guns are nutritious.
Combined with my badge, it's num-num delicious.
But hold on now, 'cause my gun just exploded and...
zzzzzzzzzzzzz....

I fell asleep there for a second, but I think you get what I'm sayin' to you. This could've all been avoided had you shown the proper respect for either my gun or my badge. Which you just ate.

Please give them back.

mcgeorge

@DarkKnightShyamalan: I think we need to take a meeting. JudgeFudge, get your pitch ready, we're gonna put your name in frickin' liiiighttss!

*Ahem*

Calraigh

@JudgeFudge: Perfection.

NoWireHangers

@Calraigh: One fish, two fish... maybe Feist can do the song?

Dr_Venkman

@NoWireHangers: I'd pay to see that.

Well, there's egg and gun; egg, sausage and gun; egg and badge; egg, gun and badge; egg, gun, sausage and badge; badge, gun, sausage and badge; badge, egg, badge, badge, gun and badge; badge, sausage, badge, badge, gun, badge, tomato and badge.

@JudgeFudge: I got a email from a friend just to read that comment. Gold, sir. That is gold.

rudolphdude

@JudgeFudge: Fuck gold stars! You should have a gold co-star!

raincoaster

@RonMwangaguhunga: I'm with you. This will be a great DVD, with the right bourbon to accompany it.

raincoaster

@Dr_Venkman: GREAT idea. You want in? I'm thinking Tales of the Unexpected/Saul Bass type opening creds. Feist would be perfect. Judge, you *need* to tie this down.I'm not sleeping, breaking out in cold sweats. Let's do this!!

Calraigh

Oh my god you guys, seriously go watch the trailer because all this is ten times funnier once you've seen it.

DarkKnightShyamalan

Damn this movie doesn't look good. At this point these actors seem far too tired to continue making movies like this.

I would, however, be interested in seeingf this if Judgefudge wrote the script.

kylo4

@DarkKnightShyamalan: I know, I saw it today and all I could think all the way through was, '' Badge, gun, fish, badge, gun NO! badge..''

Calraigh

I saw the trailer yesterday and got the feeling Pacino and DeNiro were phoning in their entire performances from their Blackberries.
