Be Kind Rewind

[Arob]

This movie looks terrific. I loved Jack Black in School of Rock and I'm a big fan of Moss Def's attempts to change America from the ground up...

I would like to discuss this movie and there is no thread.

I have to say this movie looks very funny - even the Be Kind Rewind (http://www.alliancefilms.com/bekindrewind/) website looks amazingly original (the internet is erased and your fav sites have been 'sweded').

I don't know much about Moss Def but I have learned that on September 7, 2007, Mos Def appeared on Real Time with Bill Maher where he spoke about racism against African Americans citing the government response to Hurricane Katrina, the Jena Six and the murder conviction of Mumia Abu-Jamal. Somehow that makes him even funnier to me - to know that he has a serious side and is passionate about his beliefs... passionate enough to speak out against the Bush Administration and publicly accuse them of being behind the 2001 Terror Attacks. (His rap song "Bin Laden" in 2004 blamed the Reagan Doctrine and President George W. Bush for the September 11, 2001 attacks. A club remix song, featuring Eminem, was released the following year, in 2005.)

I only mention this because Jack Black has been summarily ignored on this compilation and that both surprises and delights me..

Be Kind Rewind (http://www.alliancefilms.com/bekindrewind/) will no doubt be the comedy hit of 2008 and the movie's soundtrack will sell better than most other, no doubt better, 2008 new releases & artists.

Anyone interested in knowing exactly how Jack Black and Mos Def split up the soundtrack?

I had heard that Jack Black was not too happy with the arrangement and wanted more tracks... Looks like he gets only the sweded Ghostbusters theme song and that's it!
