New Beastie Boys movie.

Just heard about this new movie today. Its called Fight For Your Right Revisited. Apparently Mike D, Adrock and MCA will be played by Will Ferrell, John C Reilly and Jack Black. I'm going to have to check this one out.

That sounds soo awesome! Thanks for the heads up!

I'm trying to find a trailer for it but not having any luck. If somebody finds one could you post it?

Are you sure they are playing the Beastie Boys? The article says they will have a roll to play in the movie. If this is true about them playing the boys themselves, why? They should just let the band members be themselves. They can act. Look at Sabotage - pure genius!

While the exact plot remains under wraps, the film will serve as a music video for the album track “Make Some Noise” according to Mike D. And thanks to IMDB.com, we now know the film’s complete cast and it’s a veritble who’s who of Hollywood A-listers. For one, it apparently takes two movie stars to play one Beastie Boy; both Elijah Wood and Will Ferrell will play Ad-Rock, Danny McBride and John C. Reilly will fill the role of MCA, and Seth Rogen and Jack Black will handle Mike D

This is on ]top of my movie list along with the Last Dragon remake starring Samuel L. Jackson as Shonuff.

John Davis of Davis Entertainment and Kerry Gordy (son to the original film's producer, and Motown creator, Berry Gordy) will co-produce along with RZA, and Dallas Jackson (head of the label, DJ Classicz) has already written a script. Back in October, Monika brought us the news that Samuel L. Jackson would be taking over the role of Sho'nuff (originally played by the late Julius Carry), but so far, there is no word on casting; namely who would be taking over for Taimak in the lead.

Nice, that sounds pretty awesome too. I love Samuel Jackson!

I was just looking through the movie forum and stumbled across this thread. I definitely wanna see this. It is just a short film however. Only 30 minutes but that's better than nothing. Here's a review of it.

I'm sure it won't be long before, as the end of that article suggests-

When this thing hits the interwebs, it’ll go viral and you’ll be able to watch it over and over again. Believe me, you will want to.
