‘School Of Rock’ Celebrates Its 20th Anniversary With Collector’s SteelBook [Win A Copy In Our Giveaway]

Plenty of comedy and coming-of-age films are set in a classroom, some with troublesome students and others with reluctant teachers. These types of movies, especially in the early 2000s, were commonplace; however, few have stood the test of time, still hold their own, and have been enjoyed by the younger generations two decades later like “School of Rock” does.  Ranked: The Best Characters In Richard Linklater’s Movies “School of Rock” hit theatres on October 3, 2003, a full year before Aaron Samuels asked Cady Heron what day it was, opening at number one at the box office, leading Jack Black to skyrocket into stardom and inspiring an entire generation to “stick it” to “the man.”  The film sees Black as Dewey Finn, an eccentric guitarist with delusions of fame who is kicked out of his band and desperate for work.

‘Hit Man’ Review: Glen Powell Teams With Richard Linklater For A (Sort Of) True Comedy Noir Thriller Romance That Hits The Target – Venice Film Festival

It was 22 years ago that Skip Hollandsworth wrote a Texas Monthly article about Gary Johnson, a school teacher who moonlights as a hit man who doesn’t kill people. Now if that doesn’t sound like the formula for a hit movie, you may understand why it has taken so long for Gary’s story to make it to the silver screen, so long in fact that its subject passed away before he could hit the red carpet of the Venice Film Festival where the film is having its World Premiere tonight. Nevertheless Glen Powell never forgot the story and has teamed with Richard Linklater to finally tell it, but it is only “loosely” based on the article. Certain details in the screenplay co-written by Linklater and Powell are made up, and those are the details that actually help make this a hilarious winner, as well as perhaps Linklater’s most commercial movie since School Of Rock. Its quirky true crime element also has a bit in common with Linklater’s Bernie which starred Jack Black. The director seems drawn to this kind of offbeat tale, with some level of truth to it.

Gwyneth Paltrow’s ‘fat’ double from ‘Shallow Hal’: I almost starved to death

Amelia Tait for her newsletter The Waiting Room.“It was so exciting. It was just fun to be part of a movie – there are so few people who actually get to do that.” Paltrow was “really nice” and Black “a delightful person,” and the starlet finally felt noticed for her persona — ironically, the plot line of the film — after fighting “really hard to be seen as a personality and not just my size.”But the film’s seemingly progressive storyline – that the “obese” character wasn’t a “villain,” but rather a “cool,” “popular” girl — instead welcomed an onslaught of body-shamers who zeroed in on Snitzer’s weight.It was then that Snitzer’s taste of the limelight soured.

Remember the 2001 rom com Shallow Hal? You know, the one starring Jack Black, who plays an extraordinarily shallow womanizer that gets hypnotized to only see inner beauty? In case you haven’t seen it, basically, Black falls in love with an overweight woman named Rosemary, played by Gwyneth Paltrow in a fatsuit. Only he sees her for said inner beauty — which the film makes a point of stating is the famously narrow-figured look of the actress.

‘Borderlands’ Movie: Craig Mazin Says He’s ‘Not a Credited Writer’ and Reports of Pseudonym Credit Are ‘False’

Selome Hailu Though it was at one point reported that the most recent draft of Lionsgate’s “Borderlands” movie had been co-written by Craig Mazin, that involvement doesn’t seem to be true. Questions about the “Chernobyl” and “The Last of Us” writer’s attachment began to rise on Sunday, when World of Reel reported that “Borderlands” was in “post-production hell” and that Mazin had removed his name from the project, opting instead to use the pseudonym “Joe Crombie.” While the Writers Guild of America’s website does list Joe Crombie as a co-writer alongside director Eli Roth, Mazin is now publicly denying that the pen name is his. “I am not a credited writer on the film, so I cannot claim any kind of authorship of ‘Borderlands,’ much less ‘co-writing,'” he said in a statement to Variety. “I did see the report about the pseudonym, which is false. I did not use a pseudonym. If the name in question is indeed a pseudonym, all I can say is… it’s not mine.”
