Jim Carrey To Be A Sorry Drunk
Jun 29th 2007
Universal Pictures has set Jim Carrey to star in “Sober Buddies,” a comedy Carrey will produce with Stuber/Parent’s Scott Stuber and Mary Parent and Michael Peyser.
Andrew Kurtzman is writing the script, about a hard-partying software exec assigned a court-appointed Sober Buddy to keep him under control during a critical business trip to Las Vegas. A perfect plan falls apart when the Sober Buddy (Carrey) falls off the wagon.
Kurtzman, who’s writing the DreamWorks pic “Mr. Peabody and Sherman” based on the Jay Ward-created cartoon characters, hatched the project as a pitch with Principal Entertainment’s Danny Sherman, who will be exec producer. They brought it to Carrey, who then took it to Stuber. Stuber set it at Universal under the duo’s overall deal at the studio.
Carrey hasn’t chosen his next film but is zeroing in on the two or three roles he’ll take on before a possible strike next June. The candidates: the title character in the Tim Burton-directed “Ripley’s Believe It or Not!” at Paramount; a gay prison escapee in the dark indie comedy “I Love You Phillip Morris,” written and directed by the “Bad Santa” team of Glenn Ficarra and John Requa; and a reluctant nursemaid to his ailing wife and her family in the Fox comedy “Me Time,” scripted by Ian Roberts and Jay Martel.

F*ck Spiderman: Rock The Bells Instead
May 4th 2007
In a former life, I used to live in the world of hip hop, working with such legendary icons as the infamous Redman & Method Man. Even Lazlo, who then went by the ominous title of “Guerilla Pimpin’” when he was providing the much-needed muscle backstage when the ladies were done with the boys and trying to find me, was a part of the crew.
Well, one of the greatest nights in my illustrious Hollywood career was the final reunion of The Wu-Tang Clan back in 2004. (One of 3 final shows I’ve ever been to. Grateful Dead & Phish being the other two. Slightly different vibe.) All the behind the scenes hurrah was captured masterfully on film in the movie ROCK THE BELLS and is being released limitedly today in a few theaters. If you’re a fan of Wu or Red or Hip Hop in general, it is a must-see. It’s worth your 10 bucks.. I wouldn’t stear you wrong.
Find It.. See It.. Love It.. And for those of you in the know and with a sharp eye, you may find Laz and I lurking around in the background of a scene or two.
Have a great weekend kids.. Mahalo,
Lou

Yeah, I know.. Nothing to do with drinking, right? Well, if you think I won’t have a bottle of something clear in my pocket during this flick doing a little transforming of my own, well you must not read this site very often and for that you should go sit in the corner for five minutes. Or click around the site, click the ads and shit and I don’t know, maybe contribute a little something to the world. Sorry.. Long day at work. May need a drink soon.

This is an ad from today’s Variety.. Doesn’t look too awful bad if you ask me. Weed, Coke, Guns.. A normal weekend in Hollywood. Ironically, this is probably just a candid photo that they scraped up around the house.

UTA Buys Holiday Cheer
Dec 13th 2005
By: Captain Kitchen
I was informed last week to keep my eyes out for a gift from UTA that was a Holiday Lucky Chocolate Bar. While that in itself is great news, the really interesting part is that a few dozen recipients were said to receive “Golden Tickets” worth anywhere from $100 – $5,000.
Well, you guessed it, I WON BITCHES!!!!! Yep, I opened up my gift bar and looked inside and won myself a nice big pile of cashola. While I don’t think it’s appropriate to share how much I won……well………..ah screw it. I GOT A GRAND BITCHES!!!!!!
The next logical question I had to ask myself was: How much booze can I buy with a grand. I crunched the numbers a bit and came up with the following analysis.
I could get:
62 – 30 packs of Coors Lite, Miller Lite or Bud Lite
71 bottles of Seagrams 7
13 of the big honking Grey Goose bottles
40 bottles of Absolut Mandarin
45 bottles of Jameson Whiskey
4 bottles of Macallan’s 21 year fine oak scotch whiskey
10 bottles of Cristal
And a partridge in a pair tree!
The second question I had to ask myself was: How many “back room” lap dances could I get from shitty strip clubs in Las Vegas.
