Dec. 2, LiquidTV goes Hollywood.Follow

I'm not sure how I feel about a screen adaptation of these shorts. We finally have the CG capabilities to do the series justice which is a good thing, but I get the feeling it won't fall in line with the original. Some recent trasfers from comic to celluloid have seen some great success so I'm just hoping that a similar success can be found here.

As to Charlize Theron playing Aeon, I must say I'm a bit dissapointed. Not that she's not a talented actress, I just don't get that she fits the role well. That and she's too short and fat to look the part. A dye job just isn't going to cut it. On the bright side, she's somewhat reliable for getting nekid so at least it's got that going for it.

Anyone else familiar with the old toon and have plans on seeing the film? I'll be seeing it regardless, though I'm getting a HGTTG vibe already.

Ahh hot chicks. Every director's answer to a sucky movie based on a sucky tv show.

why can't they redo "the maxx" instead?
that was WAY better

North Country left me with an icky feeling when it comes to Charlize Theron. Not that the movie was about the first class action sexual harrassment lawsuit, no, it was that her hair, and just the way she was in that movie made me wish she'd commit suicide via a highly ingenuitive Bowflex contraption.

Her acting... her hair... the way she generally looks... her hair.. I hate it. I want her to die. When I preview our print AeonFlux I'm going to need many beers. Mmm... Heinie.... Guiness.....

God I need beer.

Eye of the Hawk...

It will probably be put in my rental pile unfortunatly. I loved LiquidTV and Aeon Flux, but Charlize Therin, ehhh. Also I doubt the Mrs. would have any interest at all in seeing it.

So who would be thin enough? Mary-kate Olsen? Lindsey Lohan? Lara Flynn Boyle?

I remember watching Aeon Flux on Liquid Television so i was surprised to see the movie trailer, but ever since i saw Charlize in Monster i can't get the uglines out of my head, every time i see her i want to puke, so i will probably wait til its on DVD if i ever see it.

Don't forget Joe's Apartment also came from Liquid Television, that movie was actually funny.

Say the preview when I saw Harry Potter...first impression was "Greeeat. Another ****** movie."
