Dru Posted May 30, 2002 Posted May 30, 2002 I can just see the musical interlude during the pre-Kyrgyzstan Muir Wall scene.... OOps I did it again, I bounced on your copperhead..lalalalala Quote
bellemontagne Posted May 31, 2002 Posted May 31, 2002 I CAN"T FUCKING BELIEVE THAT SHIT!!!! Don't get me started on those stupid little kids and their dumbass stunt Quote
slothrop Posted May 31, 2002 Posted May 31, 2002 That story's ripe for a movie. They'll probably throw in a few explosions, too, just for effect, and cast that guy from Vertical Limit as Tommy Caldwell. Play up the Muslim terrorist angle, have Jerry Bruckheimer produce -- instant blockbuster. Where's the "retch" gremlin? Quote
jkrueger Posted May 31, 2002 Author Posted May 31, 2002 It seems that Jon's (wet) dreams are being answered! They are considering casting Britney Spears as Beth Rodden if they make the Kyrgyzstan kidnapping ordeal into a Hollywood movie. Source: Rock & Ice, July 2002, p. 96 Quote
freeclimb9 Posted May 31, 2002 Posted May 31, 2002 this is on a lighter note too: Q - What did one saggy boob say to the other one? A - If we don't get some support soon people are going to think we are nuts. [ 05-31-2002, 07:46 AM: Message edited by: freeclimb9 ] Quote
ruddersbox Posted May 31, 2002 Posted May 31, 2002 I wanted my own puke face to display my disatisfaction with the whole matter. Quote
jkrueger Posted May 31, 2002 Author Posted May 31, 2002 Worst Case Scenario: They cast Eminem as Tommy Caldwell, The North Face pays a million bucks to have their logo plastered all over Britney's bosom, and everyone from the Nordstrom's crowd starts climbing. Quote
erik Posted May 31, 2002 Posted May 31, 2002 sheeit, i got the new eminem cd and it is pretty darn good...always thought he was too abrasive till now! Quote
Greg_W Posted May 31, 2002 Posted May 31, 2002 Hmmmmm...Eminem, Britney Spears... This has all the makings of a "West Side Story" meets "Evita" meets "Tommy" Rock Opera/Big Screen Musical. Or...think Central Asian version of "Sound of Music" with Britney and Fred Durst hiking over the mountains; Fred carrying that kid from "The Sixth Sense" on his back escaping Muslim radicals...Call Andrew Lloyd Weber!!! Greg Quote
jkrueger Posted May 31, 2002 Author Posted May 31, 2002 This is getting scary! Where's the monster gremlin? Quote
slothrop Posted June 1, 2002 Posted June 1, 2002 At least you know Britney's going to be "climbing" in one of those skimpy Prana tops. BETH: Oops, I did it again! I left my sleeping bag in the other haulbag! TOMMY: Oh, that's alright. Why don't you just use mine? BETH: But you're using it! TOMMY grins. BETH: Oh, Tommy, I know what you're up to! I'm not that innocent! BETH snuggles closer on the portaledge. BETH: I saw some funny men with guns and towels on their heads staring at us today, Tommy. Are they terrorists? I'm scared! TOMMY: Hush now... Quote
ruddersbox Posted June 1, 2002 Posted June 1, 2002 Gregm just blew my mind... Not only am I horrified but extremely worried because this is quite possible. Rudder off to Yosemite in 1 hour and 35 minutes. Quote
Dru Posted June 3, 2002 Posted June 3, 2002 Escape From Kyrgyzstan Rock Opera ALSO STARRING: Billy Corgan as Singer Smith and Trey Anastasio as John Dickey.... David Lee Roth cameo as German climber...Ed Veisturs as Ed Veisturs... Quote
glen Posted June 3, 2002 Posted June 3, 2002 Featuring the hit single "I'm a belay slave for you." Quote
Greg_W Posted June 3, 2002 Posted June 3, 2002 quote: Originally posted by glen: Featuring the hit single "I'm a belay slave for you." Any movie with the words "slave" and "Britney Spears" in it is destined to be a blockbuster. Could we work in the words "sweaty", or "wet", or "writhing"? Quote
glen Posted June 3, 2002 Posted June 3, 2002 I think that might be in the trailer: "Wet and writing, they struggle to the top of the epic wall... only to be caught at a moment of inattention (script reads, in the sack), by the evil terrorists. In a moment of American nationalistic heroism, they escape after pushing the guard to his doom (script reads a disembolwment with an ice axe and a big fall of guard off spontaneous 130,000,000 foot cliff)." Guard played by a Keanu Reeves? Acting ability might be appropriate... Quote
ruddersbox Posted June 3, 2002 Posted June 3, 2002 The movie version of the "harrowing 18-mile trek to freedom" will be replaced with the Airwolf reunion to help boost sales to the thirty somethings in the viewing audience. Or not... The whole NPR nooner has me spun... Quote

ruddersbox Posted June 3, 2002 Posted June 3, 2002 They sure are tough action suits Greg W... Feathered friends in Seattle makes an 8,000 meter suit that comes in the same color scheme. When the big mountains call I will be wearing one... Quote
Cpt.Caveman Posted June 3, 2002 Posted June 3, 2002 Foofy Fiends action suit sold to Ruddersbox along with spandex mini skirt for high altitide expedition. I will be viewing progress online and snaring new photos of ruddersbox wearing alpine miniskirt at basecamp with RuPaul hehe Quote
