I've heard of this before and I eagerly await the day it comes out on DVD...or LimeWire. Whichever comes first.:)

[Guitar Hero]

Excellent, I will never get sick of Bruce "Don't Call Me Ash" Campbell...baby! :cool:

The juxtaposition of this thread title and your nick is oddly appropriate.

Bruce Campbell can do no wrong!

[GrimShadow]

This is a guy who can make Elvis look badass. Im watching.

[Captain_Video]

Pretty much a demi-God....

I have been looking forward to this for some time, but Bruce can do so much better than placating his fans with what he thinks they want to see him do....it will be entertaining and fun for sure, but I cant help but feel some of the appeal to many people is a Hasselhoff like irony.

I really do think he is the closest thing we have to a B-movie matinee idol, in the vein of Tyrone Power ( see Make love the Bruce Campbell way where Bruce says the same thing ).

Watch his performances in Bubba Ho Tep, Running Time and The Woods and you can tell that there is a great actor who just needs the right platform to shine, I want to see him get good and rich because he deserves it, this is a guy with more natural screen charisma and an untapped reserve of talent.

Myself I would love to see him play a really meaty role, Nicholson in China Town level meaty.

Nice catch.

Man I'm drooling for the day we see some captured youtube clips. Come On Internet!!

But Elvis was a badass.

He actually was a blackbelt in karate.

[hoffmandu]

Bruce is the only guy in Hollywood that can pull a story like this off. Awesome.

:eek: are you serious? wow, that's news to me.

[Tobias March]

But Elvis was a badass.

Well it was Kempo Karate, which is a composite form of martial art formed by this lad from Hawaii. I met him when I was 9 years old. He signed my book, which contained pictures of Elvis posing with his black belt. Thing is - if you had the King of Rock n' Roll sign up for your nascent school of self defence....wouldn't you ramp him up quick? Maybe he was a talented fighter, but I kinda doubt it.

Look at Tom Cruise & Scientologists. He's a public face, gets them noticed and lots of ink. Anyone think he's particularly spiritual? (assuming that's what's being measured and such).


Bruce's commentary in character as Elvis on Bubba.... still rules though. I'm becoming more afraid that the proposed sequel will be like that credits announced follow-up film to Buckaroo Banzai...

Yeah, I think you're right about Elvis' black belt.

Good, hell.... it will be so bad it will be awesome!!!! This looks like total fun. I love when they give him a chainsaw. And when the girl has to take the safety off the rifle for him.

You've never seen The Man with the Screaming Brain, have you?

[GozertheGozarian]

You've never seen The Man with the Screaming Brain, have you?
Screaming Brain is genius next to Running Time.

[Ramiel]

Looks like a fun project, I mean Bruce is the man. Too bad this couldn't get some more media and such. Is it going Direct-To-DVD?

[DWEarhart]

You've never seen The Man with the Screaming Brain, have you?

Screaming Brain is genius next to Running Time.

I loooove Bruce, but even I had trouble being interested in The Man with the Screaming Brain. But I do want to see it again, just cuz.

A little update:

Dark Horse Comics' Mike Richardon, who ran into Shock at the Saturn Awards, tell it: "Some people maybe thought the film fell out or that there was something wrong with it... We did our shoot, put it in the can and the studio that financed it liked it so much they gave us more money to do a second shoot. We beefed it up so it could go into the theaters."

Due in theaters in October.

[Catlin]

Ooh, I can't wait for this, Bruce Campbell is the best. Just two weeks til Burn Notice comes back on so I can have my Bruce fix.

[GozertheGozarian]

I have tickets for an 8:00 showing and Q&A.
