I'm not a major CD poster, but I looked through the first few pages and didn't see anything about this: The Gizzard This is going to be a movie about "psychological dissection." It's a series of interconnected shorts involving a set of characters that have the "guts" of their psyche gradually exposed. It has a really weird mix of people working on it, including Matt Damon, Jeff Bridges, Julianna Margulies, Tom Waits, and Lily Cole. Terry Gilliam wrote it and is directing. Matt Damon posted:He sent it over to me and I read it and he didn't even tell me which role, he just said "Look there's a ton of great roles," and you know the three male leads I thought were all great, you know? Really very different roles and I called him back and said "This is great," I said "I'll do whatever you want just let me know." Jeff Bridges posted:It's about ethics. I said it before, our ethics still haven't really caught up. I think it's important to question that. Apparently Waits hates the way it's going and refuses to mention the movie in any way or continue work on it. I dunno what the hell that's all about, don't think I fully belive it. I saw it on one of those bullshit movie news sites, kind of hard to verify. Margulies actually got onboard when she met Gilliam on the Tonight Show, but she's displeased about how much time she has to be away from her kids for the film. Not much out there about her role. Sandra Day leads a corporation that's implicated in human rights violations: Lily Cole posted:So much of this conflict is being driven by the desire for wealth. It's history repeating itself again and again. Terry Gilliam posted:What triggered this was the start of production on The Zero Theorem. I wanted to take the piss out of the connected world with that -- I did. But I started to get this seed of an idea at the same time. This project in a way is the opposite of [The Zero Theorem], not a celebration of interconnection, but a cricism of both ideas. You can't be really alone, but you can't really connect on the most fundamental level either. I want to peel this apart. Kind of dissect it and get all the bits out. Anyway I was a pretty big fan of Brazil and Munchausen and all that crap so I'll be watching for it. Probably be delayed if the Waits thing is true. It's kind of strange, before I started looking at this I never realized the amount of low key work Waits put out, maybe he's just sick of it?
