Hamlet II: (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1104733/) From the producers of "Little Miss Sunshine" and the writers of "Southpark: Bigger, Louder, Uncut" and "Team America."

The Trailer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=giBWNkRta5o)

The looks like it could be super offensive ("Rock Me Sexy Jesus") and hilarious, plus the cast is awesome. Yay Elisabeth Shue!

(Obligatory apologies to KC//Crimson if he already started a thead about this.:D)

OMG. That play SOO reminds me of my cousin's HS Christmas play that their drama teacher wrote herself and produced. I went to watch the thing and was appalled. I'm not going to mention what school this was at, but I'll say it's very near Norman.

It made absolutely no sense at all. For example, they had "GI Mary and Joseph" who "rode camels to Vietnam from Israel" to escape the guys that President Nixon sent to kill baby Jesus because baby Jesus was a threat to his power. How did he know baby Jesus was a threat to his power? The "Three Wise Men" (who in the play were Vietcong generals) traveled to D.C. to inform Nixon of this fact.

It truly was the most f-ed up thing that I have EVER seen. I have a clip of this up on YouTube if anyone wants to see it. I'm not posting it here but shoot me a PM if you want.

I have always thought Elizabeth Shue was one of the prettiest actresses in Hollywood, and never understood how she disappeared all of a sudden.

She took time out to finish her bachelor's degree at Harvard that she never finished after high school. In Hollywood, timeouts can kill a career, so it was risky, but admirable, you know?

Well, considering Steve Coogan is a major player in both this movie and Tropic Thunder, I''ll forgive you.

This time.

Yeah, it has a lot of potential to be a massive suck-bomb or cinema greatness.

I thought Shue (in all her hawtness) also took time out for the family dealio.

As an aside, count me in for the Wood man's new film! Penelope and Scarlett make out. FTW!!!!!

"Gracie" in 2007 was based on her true story. Pretty good movie. What I found intriguing about the film was Shue played the character of her own mother. Worth checking out.

it may have been that anal leakage scene in leaving las vegas that did her in.
