I read a book about the Coens (can't remember the name of it). Apparently they storyboard every single shot in their movies and the film is shot *exactly* as the storyboard says. I can't imagine the man hours that are put into that process.

i was watching the making of something or maybe it was a clooney or bridges interview and they said every single line or utterance is actually in the script. like oh's and ah's, every sound is mapped out
Life is a bitch, but she's totally doable.

Funny little bit of trivia from the original TDTESS. The words used by the characters to command the robot Gort, "Klaatu barada nikto," were also used in Army of Darkness by Ash when he tried to take the Necronomicon.

That's one of my all time favorite scenes. I love it when Ash forgets the words, and tries to fake his way through it.
I wish that I believed in Fate. I wish I didn't sleep so late. I used to be carried in the arms of cheerleaders.

<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->Jackie Chan soon could be mentoring a karate kid.

The action hero is in negotiations to star in Columbia's remake of "The Karate Kid." He would take on the role of mentor Mr. Miyagi, made famous by Pat Morita in the original franchise.

Jaden Smith, son of actor Will Smith, would play Miyagi's young protege, a role originally played by Ralph Macchio. The studio also has signed Harald Zwart ("Agent Cody Banks") to direct the picture, which possibly will begin shooting this year in Beijing.

Like the original, the movie will examine the relationship between a martial arts expert and a boy who is picked on by bullies.

Will Smith's Overbrook Entertainment is producing along with the original film's producer Jerry Weintraub. The setting will be relocated from the United States to China.

Chan, who next appears in the action-comedy "The Spy Next Door," has massive appeal overseas, which undoubtedly appealed to Columbia. His "Rush Hour" franchise with Chris Tucker has earned about $750 million worldwide.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
