I did some remodeling work on Mr Coppola's home back in the 90s and got to talk to him quite a bit. He was very polite and talkative, told me quite a few stories. Great guy.
Well, thanks for retelling them to us...oh wait, no, fuck you for nothing.
@@williamlangeii4012what’s got you so mad 😭😭 weirdo
@cwega2463 Tardos like you, maybe ?
Coppola's wanted to make this movie for over 30 years, and he's finally done it. Good or bad, I want to see it.
i can't wait to see the documentary about the movie, showing everyone going insane in the filming
😄😆😅🤣
Shia labeouf: all I’m doing is waiting for Adam driver so I could-
Francis Ford Coppola: why are you waiting for Adam Driver ?Adam doesn’t do anything. You just walk right out of the thing.
Shia storms off angry

Doc? This one will be a 10 part mini-series!!
Hearts of Megadarkness
My condolences to Mr. Coppola for the death of his wife, artist & accomplished filmmaker Eleanor Coppola. Likewise, he lost his oldest son Gio in a tragic boating accident during the production of "Gardens of Stone" in the 80's.
The "commercialization" of his 80's movies, which was briefly mentioned, was the result of some difficulty in Coppola's life at the time. He had to "sell out" to make more mainstream Hollywood movies because of the disastrous losses incurred when he tried to create his own movie studio, akin to the old MGM, Fox, & WB "Golden Age of Hollywood" studio system, where his actors, film crews, pre & post-production teams, & every other personnel were under contract to the studio.
The old studio system had crumbled, but Coppola thought he could succeed where the others had failed, because he approached it completely as an artistic endeavor instead of a business. He took influence from the mentality of United Artist's original intent, which gave nearly unchecked support to the creativity, making a haven for austere directors like Coppola & Scorsese to blossom. Unfortunately, it's reliance to that end resulted in director Michael Cimino to run it into the ground with his runaway production of the infamous "Heaven's Gate."
Coppola didn't learn from the UA/"Heaven's Gate" debacle & created his own with the disastrous "One From the Heart" as mentioned in the vid. He ran out the funds to such a degree that he was unable to pay his employees. Because of this, he had to take jobs as a "director-for-hire" to get himself out of the hole & repay investors.
Nowadays, he's become a "wine magnate" with wineries in California & Oregon. In fact, he sold some of his wineries to fund "Megalopolis." He's paid for it completely out-of-pocket & has a lot riding on its success. We'll see how it plays out.
Studios will waste money on Indiana Jones dial of dickweed, terminator dark fate (pretty prescient title), and The Flash (more like The Flush), but they won't take a gasp of a chance on a literal titan of cinema, even in this "new age of the auteur."
Some things never change
those people are totally insane.
@@GaminHasardthey aren’t insane because their job isn’t to make great movies but to make money. If people stop supporting shit and support the greats instead or even support A24 films you’ll see more films like that get made
Batwoman. So terrible that they shot the whole thing and then threw it away.
No kidding . Just put it out and get Coppola to do the rounds of youtube creater interviews and show clips .
Screw traditional marketing .
Who is watching any of that stuff anyway ? Unless it's aired on a live sporting event , no one watches commercials ?
It will be competing with the freiken" Fall guy ' and some woke crap ?
Why is everyone stupid?
@@barry4649They're all losing money hand over fist with their woke crap ? And the fucking "Fall Guy " retrash?
What planet are you living on ?
Wait, you've never seen his 1980s classics ''Rumble Fish'' and ''The Outsiders''? Even the highly underrated ''The Cotton Club'' and ''Tucker: The Man and His Dream'' are well worth watching.
I thought Peggy Sue Got Married was a good movie too.
As a lover of vintage car, I liked Tucker a lot.
These are the same people who thought The Flash and Terminator: Dark Fate were good ideas.
All I know is I want to see it.
Exactly ! Some woke crap or the Fall Guy .
Or Coppala's possibly great, or not , last film?
And by the way, if you're gonna rehash an old Lee Majors vehicle, why the Fall Guy & not the Six Million Dollar Man ?
And why, for the love of God , is everyone stupid?
Yep they are worse than gamblers, their minds can fail so miserably trying to get what it craves(money) so I can’t take their opinions (even about commercial movies) seriously
I really liked The Outsiders and Rumble Fish.
It’s weird when Spielberg Francis and Scorsese can’t get a movie made in the studio system.
they must be loyle to their capos
Scorse, and most especially Spielberg, are Hollywood directors. Coppola has always been more of an independent.
They are pedos
Coppola is in a different category. his movies were art movies really. Apocalypse now is really bizarre. The Conversation... his movies made a lot of money when people wanted to watch art movies... Star Wars changed the film business. Movies never got dumber... the target audience intelligence level just went down in efforts to capture everyone with a mid product instead of a weird experimental movie.
@@MicahMicahel nope. All garbage
This is *great* news to me! Every great Francis Ford Coppola movie has been "in trouble"! The Godfather, he was fired and re-hired several times, once in the same day. Part 2 he didn't even want to make it, and it was a headache. Apocalypse Now, there was a revolution in the Philippines, nervous exhaustion of Coppola, heart attack for Sheen...I can't wait to see the "troubled" Megalopolis!
I think it'll be an interesting watch either way. We need more auteurs, not franchises and remakes.
And who's going to pay for them?
@@williamlangeii4012 maybe A24
"I know he hasn't made good movies in years but let's get behind the man" Cine is a come from behind kind of guy
He’s no longer part of our social club
@@donkeysaurusrex7881 Social club? He's gotta GO!!
Think about it… sudden weight loss…
He just doesn't want his bottom line impacted
@@TG-ld8hl Nobody's got AIDS, and I don't want to hear that word in here again!
2007's 'Tetro' was a satisfying movie plot-wise and the most gorgeously shot black and white movie since the classics of the 40's and 50's.
The recent revision and re release of Godfather 3 proved worth the purchase. But he changed the ending from the original theatrical release! Always keeps us guessing, and always worth the wait!
He changed the ending so when this becomes the colossal flop it's going to be he can come back and do Godfather 4, "Michael's Revenge" and buy his vineyard back. 😅😅
It reminds me of Jodorowsky's failed attempt to bring his version of Dune to the screen. Between the ambition and the realization there was an insurmountable abyss which he could not bridge. I imagine it would have been a massive pretentious mess---but I wish it existed. The documentary is fascinating and his enthusiasm to bring this project to life is very infectious. As far as Coppola goes I'd have to go all the way back to Apocalypse Now for a film of his I genuinely enjoyed and still watch periodically. I did like Peggy Sue Gets Married. It's lightweight but was fun. His Dracula is laughably campy and I still wonder if it wasn't a very expensive practical joke. I'm curious about Megalopolis and will go in with an open mind. I don't know if he has formally announced that this would be his last film, but I never take anyone at their word---although I do hope Tarantino does retire after his next movie.
I think that I will adore Megalopolis. I am no stranger to loving experimental filmmaking (Charlie Kaufman is the greatest filmmaker to ever live in my opinion) and the fact that studio heads think that this film is too inaccessible actually increases my excitement dramatically. Some people will adore this film and call it a masterpiece, others will be turned off and hate. I am expecting Megalopolis to be the Synecdoche, New York of the 2020’s (which is my favorite film ever made)
Why doesn’t he ask Disney there in the business of loosing money 💰🤪
hehehe
And you're in the business of really bad spelling.
he should just make Cleaver as his Magnum Opus
The sacred and the propane
Don't bitcha to me
I must be loyle to my capo
It will need an arc.
😂😂😂
Rumble Fish is so underrated.
The studios didn't know how to market The Conversation, Apocalypse Now, The Outsiders, Gardens of Stone......
At the end, that is the reason Zoetrope studios was put up, to make films outside the rules of Hollywood. This is his ultimate independent film, and he can afford it. It is his biggest "up yours" to the hollywood system.
Yeah, but that's the problem. He CAN'T "afford" it. He has literally gone broke making this money and it's already being called the biggest flop in movie history.
@@williamlangeii4012 I believe he can afford it, he reportedly sold majority of his Coppola winery for over 500M and still kept his luxury wine brand Inglenook. So even if he doesn't recoup the 120M investment he is still doing ok.
I love zoetropes.
@@williamlangeii4012 I don't think it will flop. It's being shown in Imax, and I don't think he made the movie for money either. People love to bitch about everything. I'm sure it's not as horrible as they say
Megalopolis insists upon itself.
Peter Griffen 👍
Because it has a valid point to make, it's insisting!
Coppola also won an Oscar for writing the screenplay for the superb 1970 war movie PATTON based on the anti-heroic WW2 general George S. Patton.
One of my favorites
George C. Scott may have been a horrible human being.
But he was one of the greatest actors of all time.
Anyone who hasn't seen it needs to check it out.
Garanteed it'll be the best movie you will see all year.
@@alanbeam7187
Well, Patton could be pretty horrible as well maybe that's why he played him so brilliantly. A great actor playing a great general, no matter their flaws, they were exceptional at their craft.
@@alanbeam7187 Horrible human being?
From internet: Some early reviews of Apocalypse Now were negative, with one user on Metacritic calling it "a pretentious load of nonsense, badly acted and full of ham-acting performances". Another review on Reelviews Movie Reviews criticized the film's ending as "anticlimactic and disappointing" and the final half-hour as "borderline-incoherent, badly written".
Those reviews sound like extreme cope from people who didn't even see the movie wtf. Probably the same thing Megalopolis is dealing with
He was spent creatively by the mid 1990s but already given his fellow men priceless gifts.
I don't give a shit if it's good or bad: it's a legendary independent auteur pecker-slapping corporate Hollywood with an expensive piece of algorithm-fucking art. That alone makes it worth *watching* at least. And at his age, to drop a new monument and possibly ending his career with a $120M middle finger is noteworthy. Although I do wish we still had Paul Newman to be in it though.
Coppola said in the commentary on TUCKER that he was always bewildered that Howard Hughes was such an anomaly: a wealthy man of vision and intelligence who used his money to innovate and explore new ideas; most of the wealthy people he knew were only interested in making more money. I know that you can talk about Thiel and Musk etc. today, but most--if not all--of them are interested in making money from forging a new world in their image rather than enabling humanity to grow as a whole.
I also think that corporate Hollywood is nervous about a wealthy artist changing the dynamics of the public's relationship with media. They know that the public doesn't like the new crop of films and are concerned that an indie filmmaker showing them their ass might prompt the creation of a New New Wave that isn't rooted in corporate visions. I can see that preventing them from marketing the film.
WOW - some tasty insight here. Very honest and a realistic view of Coppola. He has always been an outsider with just enough patience to placate the suits and bean counters. Say what you want about Coppola, but he knows how to tell a great story because he understands history. He doesn't look down on people, he talks TO them because he finds mankind endlessly fascinating .He produced an incredibly talented daughter. I wish the best of success for this film, but like most of his great work, it will take the world about 20 years to catch up to it. And him.
I want to see it, I mean I sat through Madame Web
You will watch anything, anon. That’s all I got from this.
Just remember that distributors aren't the arbiters of quality.
it might be that the movie is against the woke ideology. or not even against it but runs contrary to corporate leftist ESG score globalism on some level. If it was pro esg globalist it would've been funded probably. There would be something rebellious possibly.. at least that's part of the independent promise, that we get thoughts that run contrary.
I just want to say that I got to see Coppola's magna opus in theaters when it premiered, whether it's a master-mess or masterpiece.
People's problem is they go to see it thinking of immortal classics like The Godfather or Apocalypse Now and how his last few films were awful, although TETRO was not bad . Now keep in mind he wrote this film back around the time he was still making good films like his hidden gem Rumble Fish, along with The Cotton Club and The Outsiders. People need to also realize that every great movie he did was met with uncertainty that it would make a profit. Coppola is the definition of what it means to do what you love and not for what you can get in return. If all directors thought like this maybe we would get a great film atleast once a year instead of having to wait now the standard 5 years or more for something that will never hold a candle to this mans work. Most people don't know what they want in a film until you give it to them. Keep in mind that every Coppola film that people adore was met with the same speculations. I wish his film the best although It would of been amazing to see Dicaprio in it instead.
I for one can't wait to watch every big, messy, confusing second of this film.
Coppola's always been a much better director of scenes than he is a crafter of story structure or even basic clarity. But whatever. We're not going to get something pedestrian here, so I'm in. Remember Warren Beatty's disastrous return to filmmaking after eighteen years? Neither does anyone else.
Can’t wait to see this. Remember no-one had high expectations of The Godfather, even after executives first saw it. RUMBLE FISH is his magnum opus.
We should by now have a better understanding of their idea of a good movie. After the track record of Hollywood execs for the past decade,we still taking their “professional opinion” and giving it credence. It is amazing how much we are conditioned to believe in anything someone in a “position of authority” has to say, regardless of their results!
No kidding. This whole trope is stupid and annoying .
I think there jiob is to make sure no one can actually put out anything good .
It either has to be woke garbage, or a bafflingvremake of an old mediocre TV series no one cares about .
And no more comedy is allowed, .at all !
Why is everyone stupid ?
Who criticizes the critics? Most of them are hacks these days anyways. I'm going to see it.
Real shit
I feel that he's without a doubt in my mind has made his mark. And his mark with his most successful movies becoming instant classics and highly acclaimed award winning films. That have now become a list of must see, landmark films in film history. With films like The Godfather 1 and 2, The Conversation, Apocalypse Now. I mean just them four movies alone are absolutely dominant and possibly the most well known and celebrated films ever made in cinematic history. So whether or not his new movie is good or bad. If it is a success or a flop. I feel it doesn't matter. As his work he created in his prime speaks for itself. The movies this man has made are legendary. And will never be taken away from him. He set the bar very very high when he was in his prime. Them four movies are movies that not many ppl making movies, in the entire history of making movies, have been able to top. His fingerprints will forever be involved in directing and creating some of the greatest movies ever made that will still stand the test of time as ppl today are watching and discovering these movies for the first time and now have a new favorite movie. And this will happen for generations to come. It can't be erased.
The problem is i think, what is the point, Megalopolis. It clearly sounds like a film about a massive city with a even bigger society. But in this day and age, that kind of film isnt necessary or groundbreaking. Infact it has been done before. Ridley Scott did it in Blade Runner, George Lucas did it in the Star Wars prequels. Is it going to be a dystopian society where everyone is driven my commercialism and consumerism? Theyve made movies like that already too. This may have been a groundbreaking and ambitious idea in the 70s, making a movie of a massive city with bug set pieces to illustrate just how huge things are. But now its not so impressive.
Coppola has guts, I believe he said Megalopolis will stand the test of time. Also Grace Vanderwaal is in the movie and she is a genius level singer songwriter. On imdb she is credited with original music for the film.
Is this Daniel Larson? Grace is an extremely talented singer but her lyrics leave something to be desired.
@@happyChappy96621 I'm someone that holds Grace in high regard. She's shown impressive songwriting abilities for someone of her age.
Shut up
did it need a 100 million budget though ?? i think most of that went to the cast ?
THIS MOVIE GOT TO HAVE SOME ELITE NEW WORLD ORDER EASTER EGG PREDICTIONS
No need to shout.
@@justinsidious9772 I THOUGHT ITS JUST CAPITAL LETTERS ,, WHICH IS STILL LEGAL
@@lancethrust9488
It's not illegal but reaks of douchebaggery
@@lancethrust9488 GUILTY! of being a giant douche!
That's what it sounds like to me too. the fact that it's independent means he couldn't get corporate ESG money by pushing leftist values.
Those mixed reactions make me happy. I am more excited than ever to see it.
We'll just have to wait and see.
My interest began wavering when you mentioned Shia leBoef and Adam Driver. Ugh.
You forgot Dustin Hoffman.
@@75YBA No, I didn't.
All the controversy is intriguing. Distributors only care about profits and losses. Auteurs care about content and style. I will watch it with an auteurs eye. I don’t care what the “experts”say: I will watch this film and make my own determination. I suggest that you all do the same.
If all those aholes dislike it its probably a great movie.
You think that he is reediting the film for Cannes or is set in stone as the version of the screenings?
I'll watch the film and ignore the critics as usual.
I have a feeling all this “controversy” is nothing but a ploy from the marketing campaign.
Im definitely dropping acid seeing this in cinema. Can’t wait.
No distributor yet? Come on A24 step up!
I'm half and half on his work but i'll gladly watch it, it's gonna be released in IMAX right? If available near me, I'm there.
Isnt this what A24 is for?
One From The Heart had money probkems..Coppola built Vegas in an old Mint in San Francisco. An incredible amount of neon and sets.
Back then it never occurred to me to not see it because it was hard to make. You're either a dedicated fan or you ain't. You go. Tarkovsky's The Mirror would make about 10 grand if it was released now. If that. But the film is considered incredible.
It's not divisive at all. Everyone that saw it said (diplomatically or not) that it's crap.
I guess he should do The Godfather Part IV as his last film. Or, Apocalypse Now Part 2.
“Apocalypse Now and Then”
I’d likely watch it. The key will be whether he has a good story and dialogue, he can certainly make great visuals.
Id like to see this , and Im a huge Shia LaBeouf fan , great actor , who's personal bar is set very high . Looking forward to this film , guessing I'll be going alone as I cant imagine anyone I know would be interested to see it .
The theatrical release of The Outsiders is a classic
Apocalypse now is my favorite movie.
Very excited
Based on the experimental comments after the screenings, I think I will LOVE IT (eg I loved Annette with Driver), but is it true that for that amount of money an experimental film is almost impossible to be profitable instantly.
Rumblefish, The Outsiders, The Cotton Club, Bram Stoker’s Dracula etc. etc. etc. lots of fine films after Apocalypse Now
I will buy my tickets ahead of time
I will go see this, no question. One look at the state of movies today tells you we need some risk taking, and Coppola is certainly doing that and should be rewarded.
there are plenty of movies taking risks that are releasing every month. if you don’t see them then that’s on you
@@cwega2463 Did any the producers sell their vineyards to fund it? Also, did any of them make a movie like Apocalypse Now? Please send me the list of those producers releasing movies…
I want to see it now.
Take my money, this is Real Cinema History !! the real deal doesn't matter what Hollywood says.
I'm optimistic. I don't trust Hollywood studio executives. They think with their politics and have lost billions of dollars doing so.
''Bram Stoker's Dracula not bad'' ???!! Are you playing with a full deck? It's a masterpiece of film making! Don't know where to begin with its brilliance! Apart from Keanu's poor performance, which didn't so much hinder the movie it is a unique, profound homage to the world of cinema, not just horror and romance! 😲 I believe in Megalopolis, I believe in Coppola's genius!
And I believe you have bad taste, fren 🤨
😂😂😂
Epic
Totally agreed it was his only best from the 90s.
A24? Would they take it? What do you think
probably not since it is a huge financial risk. it cost like $120 million
it's a shame coppola didn't combine elements of this ancient roman love triangle with real life robert moses, who was in fact a visionary architect who greatly influenced the design of post ww2 nyc. had he fictionalized the melding of both stories (maybe even added that nyc got partially bombed during ww2 much as london had, making that it's man made urban disaster) in a less futuristic setting, he could have gotten this film made decades ago at a far lower budget.
The horror… the horror…
I’m definitely interested in seeing this movie.I like to see visions of the future and,unlike some people,I’m not necessarily looking for that vision to predict what that future will be(sometimes,when people evaluate an early vision of the future,they seem to do it only on the metric of how accurate predictions were,not how good or imaginative the story was,for example)but only what it might be:Wishful thinking as apposed to extrapolationThis brings me to an idea as to how it could be marketed.Talk about how it is made by the same man who created certain cinematic landmarks.talk about how he believed in this project so much that he took steps others might not have to ensure it got made.Finally,mention how it is a bold move because he(the director,of course) is venturing into territory he really hasn’t stepped into before(futurism.Yes,he helped George Lucas produce THX-1138,and May as far as I know have helped him direct it,but this is the first such movie he has directed on his own) and putting his own unique stamp on it by combining it with a historical story,set in that future.
I don’t know it seems weird to me to be criticizing the man’s body of work when the critic openly states he hasn’t seen most of his stuff after 1980.
I want to see it. I hope it finds a distributor.
Coppola was a one hit wonder if you consider the first two Godfather films as one. Otherwise, his films run from pretty good: Apocalypse Now or just interesting BS's Dracula, Rumble Fish, to the majority of his films which are forgettable.
Always the dollars. Always the f*cking dollars.
Still going to see it. Fuck the critics!
I personnaly loved 2009 Tetro.
1983 Rumble fish is Brilliant
All the comments on here are trashing him filled with low expectations. Makes me think it's going to be a terrific film!
Just stream it
Morgoth, have you had a coffee?
Most of these early screening critics will fellate any capeslop movie that looks like it's gonna make big bucks. The fact that some of them can't tell who's the good guy or bad guy is very interesting to me, as that implies a level of nuance that is hard to come by in big movies today.
Sadly I’m more than certain it’ll never see the light of day at least not while Coppola is alive or an edit that’s as close to his original vision as possible. Although the fact that he or anyone else who’s seen it can give a clear one paragraph summary of the film is such a red flag that the corpse of Vladimir Lenin got an errection that could be seen from space.
Market principals describe it as a disaster because it won’t rack up money in a superficial viewpoint. Can’t tell who the bad guy is, is so cliche Marvel. Cool movies like these that are outside the box will never be made, then cinema will never be able to innovate further.
I've been watching all of his films recently, even the less popular ones. I haven't gotten to his newest films yet. I'm sure this next one will be at least an interesting film to discuss, which is better than a slick but boring film
02:40; ' an evil man who becomes good and a good man who become evil'; from the very end of the "GF 2" dvd audio commentary in 2001.
THEY are only talkin'' bout ''Business'' & ''Money'', but have no idea of real art....remember what they said about during the making and after its release of ''Apocalypse Now''?
Isn’t Magnum Opus a penguin detective?
On his name alone, he gets his money back at worse. As the narrator so eloquently states thier are legions of fans who based on his rep alone wiil pay to watch it.
I say this with the utmost respect for Coppola and his work: it's not surprising, even if it's heartbreaking, that he can't find a distributor. His last few movies were pretty awful, and the few before that ranged from forgettable to bad. If only he hadn't squandered his early career going many millions over budget, defying studios, and driving his cast to heart attacks, he might have earned some good will in the industry. I hope to see the film some day and I hope it's great, but the reality is that there is no film that "deserves" to exist and be viewed and praised. Hollywood is a business
A fair and insightful comment there, EB.
Lol have you seen current marvel movies? Have you seen recent star wars movies? Holly wood isnt a business its a monopoly. They can literally spemd 60-100 million and kill it and not bat an eye. I think you need to stop parroting billionaire talking points when you have no real idea how anything truly works in that economic level.
And that’s why Hollywood sucks
He’s a child rape apologist so honestly good his career has plummeted
Which is why Hollywood is going down the toilet. Look at the crap they have greenlit recently.
I think Coppola and Marty are friends, could probably cut a deal with AppleTV or Netflix or whatever.
Well, judging the utter crap studios have been putting out, this film is either really good or its so bad even they don't want to touch it.
Like I said in my book modern cinema 1969-2010 a continuation of the Sarris book which stopped in 1969 I put Coppola in the pantheon but he comes off as a seventies director by 1980 he’s basically washed up
I think film is a dying medium and the story of this film exemplifies part of why. Film as a cultural institution used to be monumental, an event. Back when the Oscars meant something. Back when auteur filmmakers were kings, and the stars used to really open a film. The Coppola family has been involved in film for its entire history and they've seen it all. As for Francis, gathering the stars and resources for an auteur's dream is so very retro, back to the days of David Lean and Robert Altman. In its inception, the film industry was full of mavericks and speculators. The fact that today's corporate studios are incapable of taking risks, or supporting visionary film art like they did half a century ago, shows the decay of the form. I do think new technologies will allow story telling in new ways (AI and VR being the big culprits). I do think there are more feature films existing today than will ever be made in the future. In a hundred years, people will think of the feature film the way people today think of opera. It will be a vintage thing for niche interests. Is it sad? As a film writer myself, yes. Oh god yes! It positively guts me. But the silver lining is there is over a century of film one can go find right now and enjoy. Get those blurays and hold on to em.
What I’m wondering right is how the hell didn’t some cinephile billionaire with money to burn just pony up the distribution costs? They literally spend trillions on art and the greatest director of all time can’t scrape together a measly 100 million for what he claims is his magnum opus and he was working on way back in the 70’s? The fuck??
I don’t know why Peter Jackson, Cameron step in and give him financial backing and help with fx.
if money is not the reason for this movie he should distribute the movie himself (direct to consumer). regardless i would watch.
Francis isn't exactly Michael Bay. He is an artist with a vision. It doesn't matter if the film is a smash hit. I don't think that that is the point. It's called movie making.
Some people sketch cartoons others paint the Mona Lisa.
Robert Evans is having himself a laugh
They reconciled in the 80s
this is a movie i have to see i even hope its slow
ugh, shia labeouf is in it. think i'll pass.
I won't pass but I certainly will do my insignificant part. Watch it on the high seas.
Shia has made some great films on his own.
Thought Shia did well in "Holes" but I truly haven't seen much new films with him lately so I'm undecided about him as an actor.
