Movies That Didn’t Actually Happen • Page 126

It’s the new “Morbius” trailer.

 

morbius trailer WAS my cue to use the bathroom. for like two years!

 

This came up on HBO holiday movies section. A Thanksgiving movie staring Katie Holmes, Oliver Pratt, Patricia Clarkson, Alison Pill.

2003.

It looks like it was shot on a handheld digital camera and made by a kid in college (directed by the guy who wrote Eating Gilbert Grape).

WHAT IS THIS!!!!!??

 

I remember seeing that cover at Blockbuster and Family Video back in the day and always wanting to watch it since I was a big Dawson’s Creek fan but never did and have never seen it anywhere (streaming service, random tv channel, etc.) and thought it was like a knockoff SLC Punk or something based on the cover, but it’s a holiday movie???

 

This definitely happened. Pretty good movie actually.

 

Yes! Katie Holmes gives a solid performance in that movie.

 

I might watch that tonight then!

 

no you’re going to watch the Vikings eat shit in prime time

 

yeah there’s a 98% chance that’s what I end up watching.

 

Literally an Oscar nom for supporting actress. That exists

 

Just watched pieces of april. It’s fine.

 

The Danish Girl won best supporting actress and doesn't exist

 

id also like to toss in that "oscar nom" doesnt automatically mean it exists. I mean, it came out in 2003. I was in full fledged "knows about movies" mode. Blockbuster, deep cuts, indie flicks, oscar movies. They were all in my scope. Never have i seen that poster. And i definitely didnt know the movie looked like it had the budget of $20

 

What the hell is that

 

I remember that movie because the trailers were in every drama around that years' award season. The film went nowhere, though.

 

There is a lot to complain about in the modern landscape but we should be grateful they stopped making these.

 

It’s the next Sideways or Little Miss Sunshine!

 

Wow I totally forgot about this era, so weird

 

The cast is wild. Also. Quite baffling that this came after Captain America fame.

 

probably filmed before Captain America though, huh

 

Playing Chris Evans Michelle Monaghan It Cool

 

I checked! Filmed post-Captain.. fucking wild. 14% RT score, but we all knew that by the poster, didn’t we?

 

Far-fetched thought but I wonder if it was one those things where he was signed on to do a certain number of films for that company so he was legally bound to it? I think that was the case with Channing Tatum and doing the two G.I. Joe movies - although usually actors get contracts for specific franchises but just a company itself (l assume) so maybe that was the case and Evans wanted to be done with it, said he was gonna do whatever was next on the docket to get made, and that was it lol

 

100% exists
