So I've been getting some queries as to the first two slots of my top eight, and why they're there.
"Fuck: A Fuckumentary" is this really fun and informative doc by Steve Anderson that examines the etymology of the word... well, "fuck". It's playing now in big cities across the country and worth a watch if you've ever wondered how we collectively settled on the term for myriad uses. Also worth a watch just to see venerable newsman Sam Donaldson extol the word's virtues.
"Netherbeast Incorporated" is a flick that's in post-production right now. I know very little about it (a teaser trailer is available
here), except that my boy Mewes is in it, and he asked me to put it in my Top 8 to drum up some Friends for it, well in advance of its theatrical release. If you love Jason Mewes (and if you're reading this, how the fuck could you not?), hit up
"Netherbeast Incorporated" with a Friend Request.
Also not represented in my Top 8 (I don't think they have a MySpace page) is a flick that's currently in theaters which could use your support.
"Come Early Morning" is the directorial debut of Joey Lauren Adams - she who essayed the role of Alyssa in
"Chasing Amy" - that's been receiving some really
strong reviews, thanks in no small part to Ashely Judd's performance (and Joey's assured directing). In a world in which male directors outnumber female directors by a massive margin, give "Morning" a look-see and help kickstart a much-deserving chick filmmaker's career.
And while I'm on the subject of hawking shit...
Buy
this motherfucker right
HERE! It's nearly as heavy as a phonebook (so it'll prop open doors nicely) and is as awesome as it is thick (unlike my cock).
