News Round-Up: 5/31/06

We love all movie news here, even the really crappy stuff no-one gives a shit about. So for all the news no-one can be bothered to write a whole story about, here is The News Round-Up!
First up, Uma Thurman is wasting her life again making another romantic comedy. This one is called The Accidental Husband and will not involve her showing her tits, killing people or acting. The film is about a pyschologist who forgets she is married and will hopefully be directed by werewolf-dinner Griffin Dunne, which at least gets the interestometer flickering. This film isn't even listed on IMDB yet. Take that how you will.Source: Variety
Chris Tucker will be starring in a film that isn't Rush Hour 3 that is about a gangster that hides his naughty lifestyle from his mother by pretending to be a doctor. This really couldn't get any worse unless the mother was played by Martin Lawrence. The one single interesting thing here is that it is an adaptation of a Bollywood movie, which is the first time Hollywood has ever done such a thing. This is not to say it will be any good: Bollywood films, like video games have, once you strip away their idiosyncracies, pretty crappy stories, more often than not ripped-off from crappy hollywood films in the first place. It would get points if Chris started a song and dance number in the middle of a shoot out. The name of the film to avoid is Gangster MD.Source: Times Online
Unfunny funsters Broken Lizard will take another pay day by making Take My Wife..., a movie about wife swapping and celebrity and, now, a lot of unfunny jokes. The only reason to see Dukes of Hazzard is to see that woman's fantastic rack and the only reason to see their other films is the ego-stroke from realising you are funnier than people who make actual movies. The one interesting thing about this story is that untalented people continue to get work, so giving us all hope.Source: Variety
