yea i dont find dance cook funny either
1Will Echo Films be specializing in bland romantic comedies or mediocre dramas?
2haha Jude.
I dont think Dane is very funny either, although I would like to see him naked
3OMG B! You're crazy!
4I used to think Dane was cute (though I haven't thought him funny since the Harmful If Swallowed days), but seeing his face close-up in Good Luck Chuck changed my mind about that. He is fit, though.
5I never saw that movie, I guess I never will
Shop you know you would like that too!
6No not really. LOL He's not my type at all. I'll stick w/ Shia, Josh, and Jake.
7Wow! JA eh?
8A production company...wonder how it will turn out
Like a lot of comedians....Dane was much funnier in his stand-up days.
9I am always left wondering after watching Dane Cook how what he does is called stand up comedy? He's not funny, witty or remotely snide or clever. He ucks, give me chappelle, chris rock, jeff dunham and katt wiliams any day.

Jude C...I was going to say "Sleepers"...
11So happy for Jen, I think those two will do a wonderful job!
12* Jennifer Aniston - This could be good, this could be bad. I'll have to wait and see
13* A woman was arrested in John Cusack's neighborhood - I like this guy, but he's been out of the mainstream for so long where did this woman come from?
* Woody Allen - Creepy from the word go and his movies SUCK. I don't know why stars scramble to be in them, I've watched a couple and they're awful!
* Adam Sandler - Hope he heals soon.
* A Boston radio station has named Dane Cook the "Unfunniest Man Alive" - Dane is one of those guys that you either love him, or you hate him, there's no in between with him. I love his standup and his movies are entertaining. I'm on the "GO DANE" side.
Dane Cook is 100% unfunny...I would say he's getting by on looks alone...I mean if you go for that beer-guzzling frat-boy type!!!
14Woody Allen should LOVE American Apparel...just enough "kiddy-style" porn for an old perve like him to NOT have a heart-attack. As for his movies, I loved Scoop and Matchpoint...as well as Annie Hall...ok forget it, I do love Woody Allen movies...that old perve!!!
15Congratulations Jen. I know you will work very hard to bring enjoyable movies. You are truly one of the classiest actesses. You showed grace during the who Branjalina fiasco as they played there games and made themselves look bad. I wish you and Vince were still together, but at least you two are friends and show a lot of respect for each other. You are a doll and deserve the best.
16
tia!
17Tia, it's not his movies you like, you just like Pervs! Admit it!
18While some perversions are a good thing, an old coot marrying a woman that is practically his daughter is just...BARFARAMA!!!
19*I'm sorry, but that picture of Jennifer Aniston is NOT flattering, so I'm going to have to peace out of this post :peace:
20By the way, the woman Jennifer Aniston is setting up the company with is the same one Brad fired from the far superior Plan B Productions.
21The funniest thing about Dane Cook is how unfunny he is.
22Estelle07: BuzzSugar has a list of some of Echo's first projects. They all sound exactly like what I figured they'd be.
Interesting tidbit about her partner!
23ouch...the Dane comments are hard core! I thought he was funny in his standup. oh well.
24Yeah, never found Dane that funny either. But he was definitely funnier in his stand up days
25@ Jude C's first comment.
By the way, the woman Jennifer Aniston is setting up the company with is the same one Brad fired from the far superior Plan B Productions

Not true. Kristen left with Jen, but she held Plan B to some projects already contracted and is a producer on Time Traveler's Wife.
26Best of luck to Jennifer A. She's a lovely woman with a good head on her shoulders, and is just plain nice on top of it (I know first hand). And yes, Kristen Hahn was fired from Plan B, while she was pregnant, for sticking up for Jennifer Aniston - who was a longtime friend.
27Floridababe, Kristin WAS fired from Plan B, but rumor has it she was planning on leaving soon anyway.
28Not going to any of them would be doing myself a favor, floridababe. And thanks for the personal retort. I'll be sure not to post my opinion about Jen A. ever again in the future.
Unsubscribed.
29Wow, some of the projects at Echo sound good...
"Counter Clockwise" and "Getting Rid of Matthew" sound interesting.
30but Jude C, i think your comments are funny!!!!! and i like jen
maybe she'll find herself producing or directing.
31By the way, the woman Jennifer Aniston is setting up the company with is the same one Brad fired from the far superior Plan B Productions.
-
HUH? Let's talk Plan B - the far superior film company -Year of the Dog-flop..AMH-flop...Running with scissors...flop..Assasination of Jesse James-flop!!!
Hit -The Departed which Kristin executive produced-one of the few names mentioned when it won the Academy Award...
32What is the definition of a "hit"?
33I agree floridababe! Plan B has not had anything huge lately.
34Tia - The word "Hit" is relative to the person using it. For instance, to ME the movie crossroads was a "hit" for spears because I liked it. However I know to most it was just an awful film. Of course, I also liked all the Bring it On movies, so I'm easily pleased.
And funny enough, I just went to dictionary.com to look up the ACTUAL definition of "hit" as it relates to movies and all I got were for the action.
35in Hollywood a movie is a hit ONLY if it makes a profit, which is a lot of money considering how much movies cost these days to make (not indies). Box Office is KING!!!!
36Do you mean the film, "The Departed" for which Brad Pitt was 100% responsible in buying the source material, at personal great risk? He approached the Hong Kong producers of "Infernal Affairs" in order to secure the rights and pledged Plan B's whole acquisition budget, at that time. He hoped to do it himself but gave it up in order to work with Alejandro González Iñárritu. That would be the Brad Pitt that fought for Matt Damon to replace him, hired Graham King to produce the film when he got the role in "Babel" and was gracious enough not to insist Hahn be taken off the credits?
Hahn violated her NDA with her employer by speaking to Vanity Fair, for attribution. That is a huge No-No in this town. I guess she thought Jennifer Aniston's permission was all she needed. I wonder if that is why no one has wanted to hire her in the last 2 and 1/2 years.
37wow - that sucks about adam sandler. i wonder how that's going to affect production on his movie since they are on the middle of filming
i wonder what projects jennifer is going to take on with her company. didn't she and Brand have Plan B or somethign like that which was making a few films here and there?
i kind of like dane cook (in stand up from his HBO special) - i can't believe that ppl think that he's the 'unfunniest'
38What "great personal risk" did Brad take buying the source material for The Departed? He would have lost a couple of milliion? That's nothing. He spends money like water.
39I didn't think Brad had a problem with "huge" no no's.
40Just because you don't believe Brad, FIREITUP doesn't mean the rest of the world shares your point of view. Would you continue to employ someone who talked **** about you for publication?
41Ouch, that sounds painful for adam Sandler.
42I'm really not a fan of Jen's movies, so i'll be skipping some more i guess.
Dane Cook was funny for, like the first 15 mins of being famous, now he's just ewww - I HATED that chuck movie - couldn't even finish watching it.
