I trust there will be a murder in the red barn.

So this takes place after the earth dies screaming?

/two references from the "Bone Machine" CD in one thread, not bad

Hmm. I was hoping it would be Waits as Roland in the Dark Tower series.

Joystk: Waits as Roland

The face I can see, but the rest of Waits persona as Roland? Roland was lightning quick and alert.

Well, Roland was like Obi-Wan Kenobi and Clint Eastwood rolled into one.

 
jake_lex [TotalFark] 2009-03-13 01:27:40 AM  
This is a great casting move, though. Because, you know, Tom knows karate, voodoo too, he's gonna make himself available to you. He don't need no makeup, he's got real scars. He's got hair on his chest, and he looks good without a shirt.

Awesome, everyone will tell Ron Perlman what a great job he did in the movie.

I bet it will be big in Japan.

I'd be more excited if the directors didn't massively suck.

 
Goonie_Goo_Goo 2009-03-13 08:28:17 AM  
I wonder what the rating will be...

X Rated...that's all good and fine.
Triple X...meh, ok.
I saw this place with SEVEN X'S...The only thing I could figure was "Women Without Skin"

He was in a movie I saw recently called Wristcutter: A Love Story. It was pretty good. I recommend it.

Oh I get it, he's referring to Tom Petty's role in the Postman, a bit part in a post-apocalyptic western.

Balrog1:

Re: "Wristcutter: A Love Story."

Yeah, I enjoyed that one a lot, too. I like movies that are a little left of center, so to speak. He was good as Renfield in "Bram Stoker's Dracula", too.

Always liked Tom Waits' acting more than his music. Just never got into his vocal style. Great writer, though. Hey - different strokes...

Q: What is a gentleman?
A: A man who can play the accordion, but doesn't.

Two of my favorite artists. Double bonus!

That makes no sense at all. I think even Petty himself would agree with me.

Regarding his current touring band: They're all multi-instrumentalists, and they polka like real men.

And, what the hey, here's a stream of these real men in concert from last summer: Link (new window)

"My veal cutlet started walking across the table, trying to beat the sh*t outta my cup of coffee.... the coffee wasn't strong enough to defend itself"

"and then eventually you get around to taking advantage of yourself.... makin' the scene with a magazine...
i'm not weird about it, i don't tie myself up first or somethin'..."


/sorry if they have errors... i was writing them from memory.
