Rourke looks fantastic. Tomei looks that way, but also in the appearances department. :drool: If Rourke does not get a best actor nod, the whole system is full of frauds. Based on the trailor alone he is worthy... |
He has a great chance of winning too.

Trailer looks great. What's the Bruce Springsteen song? I should know it.. but I don't.
*Nevermind the song is called The Wrestler from Bruce's upcoming album. |

This looks fantastic. Glad to see the subject of professional wrestling treated maturely in a film.
|
I haven't seen much of Rourke's work, but that one scene in the trailer alone made me downright teary-eyed. Definitely looking forward to this performance...
|
I finally found the lyrics to the song 'The Wrestler' that Springsteen wrote for the movie.
Pretty damn good stuff I think. Spoiler:

I saw it two days ago. Best movie of the year.

Anybody else hear Artie Lange's story this morning about his audition for a role in this movie?
Taken from Howardstern.com: ARONOFSKY'S REVENGE Artie noted that he auditioned for a part of the sleazy wrestling promoter in Darren Aronofsky's "The Wrestler" back when Nicholas Cage (and not Mickey Rourke) was set to star in the project. After a few callback auditions, all of which he felt he had killed in, Artie's agent called him and said he almost got the part, but Darren went with a different actor. A few months later, someone reminded Artie that he'd met Darren years before at a party and had berated him mercilessly , calling him a "film school ****." Everyone speculated that the tortuous audition process could've been Darren's sick way of getting back at Artie for the incident, but Artie doubted it: "I don't believe it. I don't believe that happened. I don't believe that I slapped him around." |
Of course, it's entirely possible that he didn't get the part due to a complete lack of acting ability.

WWTDD has nude pictures of Marisa Tomei from the wrestler. I know we're not allowed to post links to nudity so the website is www.wwtdd.com.

whoa...didn't know she'd be that much of a stripper on camera. Way to go, Randy "The Ram"....
|
When the hell does this movie come out??
|
|
are they doing any free screenings like they did for choke and Slumbdog?
|
I don't care about when it opens in certain cities...when is the mass release?

This is really the only movie I want to see theatrically between now and the end of the year. I've seen all of Darren's movies and I'm not happy The Wrestler apparently isn't playing anywhere in the Phoenix area in the coming weeks.

100% at RT with 35 reviews!
i really hope i get to see this somewhere soon. i've liked MR since Pope of Greenwich Village and like him in almost anything. really thought Sin City would get him more exposure as he was just incredible in that. hope he sticks around some more, but even if we get things like SC and this once a few years than that is ok too. makes me savor his performances as great as they are. |
