Quote of the Day II

.
Over at STYD they spoke with director Jason Reitman of Juno and Thank You For Smoking and Ivan-offspring fame about the kinds of movies he wants to make, and while he says he's got his own idea for a Ghostbusters-type film in the big-spectacle mold his father's known for, her prefers smaller, let's say more esoteric movies:

"If I could only make one more movie and it was my big sci-fi comedy movie or my weirdest of the weird ideas which is probably to remake Pretty Woman shot-for-shot with a real hooker in the role of Julia Roberts, I would probably do Pretty Woman. That's where my heart is."

I'd so pay to see this movie. There'd have be slight changes, of course. Like instead of it being floss that Vivian hides behind her back it'd be Valtrex. And she'd be bald under the Carol Channing wig from her meth addiction. Jason Alexander could still play the creepy rapist though.

And yes, I pulled all those specifics about Pretty Woman straight outta my brain's archives. I've seen Pretty Woman probably 50 times. It's not easy being me.
