I’d go see the movie based on any of those four “taglines”.
I can’t even begin to imagine the magnitude of clout and resources it would take to distribute a movie in traditional channels.
I wish Dave much (put a positive word here) and hope he makes enough (money, respect, love, etc.) to keep doing what he likes doing which is apparently making movies about weird sex that one would die for.
So far I like “When life gets weird the weird get laid” best. If anyone’s asking…
This, Hugh, is why you’re beloved. Dave Mackenzie will scope your ass with a pipe wrench, but it still kills.
“older women, older problems”
coming of age or Becoming A Man
remember the time when your dick was growing faster than your brain?
and then your brain caught up, and shit happened.
i say that with complete love and respect…
Hmmm. Without looking it up, what was the tagline for the Breakfast Club? Pretty in Pink? Ferris Bueller’s Day Off? Some Kind of Wonderful? Weird Science? Perhaps it’s just me, but a tagline alone isn’t enough to draw me to a high risk. When I was a teenager the promise of titillation was all it took … best expressed with pictures! Or is this film in the nostalgia market? In which case, what sets it apart from the films above?
