Licorice Pizza - Speculation & General Reactions

[Drenk]

MGM gave PTA $40 million dollars and he gave them a film called Licorice Pizza that he's promoting in front of screenings of the Beavis & Butthead movie. What a legend.

Yeah. This was probably ready a few weeks ago at the convention. I've no idea how that guy manages to do whatever he wants. It rules.

I love how everyone here was like "Soggy Bottom? WTF kind of title is that???" And now we're all ready to fall on our swords in its defense. The new title will be the same way, just give it a couple weeks.

New Beverly this Sat Nite at midnight it is, then.  It's Sold-Out, so bring the battering ram.  I'll bring snax.

You can be our eyes and ears.

I actually passed on this one (which I may never live down)--but WorldForgot is going.

I still remember when we were all discombobulated over the title "There Will Be Blood." Pretty sure Punch-Drunk Love had some early detractors, too.

Agree but we ought to admit that Licorice Pizza is his most "I don't give a fuck" title, till the next one I guess.

I think The Master might be actually...

PTA: The Master? The Master? No. Burger King.

[Tdog]

Licorice Pizza.......man he's still just sore over the whole Sydney/Hard 8 fiasco isn't he!
