you don't want to sell this hotel either?



The most recent exciting up coming film release is about a cowboy and a native american* who go on a psychedelic adventure after taking semi-synthetic psychedelic drugs.

Described by the Guardian** as :
[it's] ... a buddy picture essentially. 'brokeback mountain' meets 'fear and loathing'. 'a touch of pink' meets 'even cowgirls get the blues'.
The computer graphics (or CGI) have been done over a period of 3 years and were originally shelved in 2008 because technology DID NOT EVEN EXIST *** to complete the visions of the director. currently the film comes in over the preferred run time and requires further editing. this editing will cost an extra £30,000 which will take the current budget to £420,000.

The film's soundtrack was originally envisioned as listening to 90's radio in a time warp via a plastic drain pipe while a disgruntled traveller tries to fashion shoes out of plastic bags.

Since the original trailer was shown on this blog in 2008, there have been enormous developments in the story, animation, sets and CGI involved.

Unrelated News:

The studio have announced that the follow up to 'Clemen Lebowitz' will in fact now be a film about an interior designer. Currently the set costs alone are pushing the budget into the hundred thousands already and the studio needs to curb spending or shut the project down.



SMALL PRINT
* meaning indian, cowboys and indians style. but we're not sure where it rests legally this days.
** this guardian refers to a person's nickname, NOT the newpaper or anything to do with it.
*** the technology did in fact exist
