03.07.07 | Weird Wednesday | Packed crowd. Wild energy. Laughter stepped on about half the movie's dialogue. I am officially overloaded. There's too much great stuff to list. It's just so great. For one, it seems like Wildman Steve (all caps, great) never once looked at the script. I can see him come in and just say "now listen, the people ain't payin to see no actor, they payin to see Wildman STEVE, hear? So you just go on and do what you gonna do and let me do MY thing." He's so loose in this but constantly hilarious. And there's some of the weirdest coverage I've ever seen here. They cut to the most random messed up close-ups to hide mistakes in the master... the effect is hilarious though. Pretty much everything about this movie is hilarious... the stuff that's supposed to be funny is and the stuff that isn't is so bad that it is. It's just great. I can't go on. |
