: I do believe I'll have alot of input on the casting of the movie formerly known as EVERYBODY'S DEAD (but evidently no input on the title, as they're going to change it).
>>>>I knew exactly who I wanted to be in THE GREAT BUKKAKE CAPER but was very dissapointed to find that almost all of the actors on my short list were circumcised.
And the name of my movie was changed to WHITE OUT. I really don't like that name, but they've got this whole marketing thing already figured out. The movie posters are all white with just the credits in silver/grey at the bottom. They told me that they fully expect a lot of protest from the people who make "White Out" brand correction ink, but they assured me that the resulting controversy would generate gobs of free publicity. These things just take on a life of their own, I guess.
They didn't like my whole Middle English approach to the script, either. But I insisted, and it looks like THE GREAT BUKKAKE CA...I mean WHITE OUT, is going to be the first feature film with footnotes. I'm a fucking film pioneer, I am.
