- FINALLY. The world
gets to see what I saw nearly a year ago. So happy
everyone is freaking out the way I did...
-
-
- So this is
actually a sproof of concept for an already written
biopic by the production company that rented out
GolfKon last year. It's a fact that is lost in just,
how, amazing, Jamie is... but one that certainly
throws a wrinkle into the outcome of everything. It's
simply not how Hollywood works and I honestly can't
see how this gets made the way they think it will. A
Robin Williams biopic is "Ray" level. It's "Bohemian
Rhapsody" level... and all the logistics therein. Any
a-lister that could come close to this impression will
be DYING for the part... every major studio will
want this and they will not let a small production
company handle it, period. This IP is just, too, big.
I remember talking late into the night with Jamie
and the other members of the production company and
they had so much passion and it's truly genuine... but
there's just too much involved in this IP and
I cannot fathom how anyone except Jamie would
ever be involved. Even JAMIE is a risk because of how
green he is... but he's SO fucking good I believe
he has a shot. Then again he was also amazing as Han
Solo and they chose someone else because they didn't
want a "mimic". I thought that was kind of
short-sighted then... but I wouldn't put it past
Hollywood to do the same to him on this, either.
Nicole Kidman is playing Lucy over Deborah Messing for
fuck's sake. Because apparently Deborah doesn't have
"the chops"? Huh? Deborah is a comedic actress that
looks EXACTLY like Lucy and Nicole Kidman looks
like an alien lizard. How the fuck that got greenlit
is beyond me. I'm not gonna judge why an actress would
cut her face that much, this industry and the
pressures are AWFUL for women, but clearly it should
have ruled her out to play a period piece from the
1950s??!
-
- And that's the
point. Jamie needs a good agent, and a good agent NOW.
Because that dude made me cry with the blink of an
eye. Robin Williams is UBER special to me and
most of the fucking planet. I don't know how they
could EVER cast ANYONE in that role except Jamie, now
that that video is out. He effectively erased the
ability for anyone else to be successful at it. It's a
helluva power play and I'm curious to see how it plays
out. Just once you hope the little guy gets the big
chance and they don't just give it to Ryan Reynolds or
some shit. (No offense to Ryan Reynolds)
-
- As I said in the
video: it has to be the greatest embodiment of another
human I have ever witnessed. It's so far beyond
"mimic", and I hope the big studios and production
companies believe that. And to my friends at the
smaller production company? I hope you had good
contracts and at least get a payday because I don't
see any way you can be involved in something with THIS
much riding on it. This is a billion dollar IP.
Easy.
