THE SOLOIST Trailer Gives Kristina Cavities
You know that it’s fall when the Oscar bait flicks start coming out of the woodwork. Our favorite glamazons ugly up, fatten up, or in the words of Tropic Thunder, “go full retard” in a desperate vie for an Oscar nomination. Speaking of TT, that film’s saving grace (and this year’s comeback kid) Robert Downey Jr. is teaming up with Oscar-winner Jamie Foxx for The Soloist, a true story (Oscar bait trick #1) about a genius musician (Foxx) with a mental disorder (Oscar bait trick #2) who seeks redemption ((Oscar bait trick #3) with the aid of Downey’s irresponsible, opportunistic reporter. I usually don’t mind flicks like this, but the trailer for this makes the film look like some garbage that would be made for television. If anything, the trailer has diminished my interest in this film rather than increased it. “Oh look, he’s crazy but not really! And look, he befriends a kindly white man! And look, they become friends but (dun dun DUUUUN) tragedy and chaos will strike! Oh no! Will the two men grow from their experiences together? Will Downey learn that there’s more to life than getting ahead at work? Will he meet a nice lady and accept responsibility for his actions for once? Will Foxx take a shower?” I don’t mind inspiring stories, but this thing just feels like it’s going to me one of those pretentious, sugary, “Cry! Cry NOW!” movies to me. I’m not big on Foxx to begin with, and this certainly isn’t helping matters very much. It’s also hard for me not to laugh at Foxx’s routine in the trailer, especially after Downey’s “full retard” speech in TT. He’s totally Simple Jack-ing it here! You take a look and lemme know what you think of Jamie Foxx rocking Nicolas Cage’s hairdo from Bangkok Craperous.

Man, that was like eating 5 bowels of sugar in one sitting, watching that trailer! Downey Jnr makes it look so effortless. Foxx makes it look such a chore!
I kind of feel for Downey. He’s had a stellar year, and to close the year on such a pedestrian note just seems like a shame. I’ll see this for Downey and Downey alone, but I’m not looking forward to it.
I think Downey will do wonderful things in this, like he does in everything else. Foxx will ****ing overact this into the ground though!
What’s with the shit colored backgrounds for you two?
If you’re not looking to see it, simply don’t. Watch Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang instead.
Mine is more caramel than shit.
Shit covered caramel.
Nope, Grundy has it right… shit is shit!
I asked Wyv if he was going to have a talkback that separated him from the readers, then it might be nice if me and Kris had one too as we’re staff also!
Wyv responded with what you see before you.
Many people say Wyv does not have a sense of humour. No longer will I allow such remarks to pass undefended. The very fact that he has coloured in my remarks, often considered to be “full of shit”, with the colour of… well… shit, says that the man does indeed know ‘funny’.
And Kris, come on lass, let’s try and keep our dignity here whilst Wyv laughs his nut-sack off… Our talkbacks are coloured shit!
At least he gave me a soft gentle shit color. One of those logs that plops right out with no problemo. He gave you angry shit, the kind that takes ten minutes to squeeze out.
I’m the favorite!
Jeez….stop going on about it or you’ll both end up with black or pink for a week!
(Or you could just change it to something non-shit-like, perhaps?)
And Kris… soft gentle shits that plop right out with no problemo are pleasurable but unmemorable.
The angry shit that takes ten minutes to squeeze out, and nearly rips your poop-passage, but then hits the toilet bowel and causes that horrible “splash back” up into your anus? That’s the poop that stands out from the crowd. That’s the poop of consequence.
I’ll take the latter, thank you!
And Wyv is fickle. You may be his favourite now but in 2 weeks time I’ll send him some freebies and it’ll be my time as his “bitch”.
Shit-coloured talkback or not!
I’m the favorite!
