Wow ... Just ... Wow

You ever get those strange phone calls from friends, where you learn later that they accidentally dialed your number from their jeans pocket? And you end up listening to muffled noises for 10 minutes because you’re a nosy son of a bitch and you’re hoping you might hear something provocative or gossipy or interesting but it usually just ends up being the distorted sounds of your friend ordering a sandwich at Au Naturels.

Yeah: That’s the equivalent of the trailer for Lying, which stars Chloe Sevigny, Leelee Sobieski, and Jena Malone. It kind of looks like the director accidentally left his video camera on all weekend, and he just ended up using the footage anyway. It’s umm … ethereal. Dreamy. Buttmudd.

i would expect a movie with these three actresses to be just a tad more provacative.

my favorite part was when jena malone made a noise.
so...yeah.

the song is awesome though.

Buttmud? Is that some kind of inside joke? I don't get it.

Stephen Soderberg already made this, it was called Bubble, and it really sucked. There's a reason nobody wants to watch reality, you can't fake reality, that's why it's called reality. The harder you try to capture reality, the stupider it looks.

I thought you meant Janel Maloney and I was all excited! But then I watched the trailer, and I got confused, then bored. Then it cut out at the 1:21 mark, but I don't think I missed anything.

is it a video clip for an arty posh band fan of 80's?

Posted by: carrie at September 10, 2009 8:15 PM

AvB,

On the last Zombieland post, if you watch the clips, Woody Harrelson uses the word "buttmud." And yes, it's exactly what it sounds like.

Some Pajibans have taken quite a liking to the term. It'll probably be in the dictionary by Monday.

"Chloe Sevigny, beans or no beans?"

"Beans have carbs, you moron! People in Hollywood die if they eat those!"

"Gotcha! EXTRA beans!"

Posted by: twig at September 10, 2009 8:22 PM

Wait, was that some kind of joke, AvB? Dang it!!

Posted by: MM at September 10, 2009 8:23 PM

What?

Damn it!

Posted by: MelBivDevoe at September 10, 2009 8:26 PM

Aw, thanks MM! I was actually being sarcastic with that.... I'm so subtle with it now, even *I* don't know when I'm being sarcastic half the time.

Wasn't somebody working on a sarcasm font? That would make life so much easier.

Posted by: Anna von Beaverplatz at September 10, 2009 8:27 PM

Disposable. Mostly because Blash wanted us to be able to smell their panties and then couldn't deliver.

Posted by: The Gemeinderat at September 10, 2009 8:29 PM

You can't lie if you never fucking say anything.

That was easily the most boring two minutes of my week.

Posted by: buttercup at September 10, 2009 8:29 PM

Sarcasm font would make life easier. Sigh.

I realized as soon as I posted that, had "buttmud" been in an earlier comment, you might have been sincere, but since Dustin used it in the actual post, you were giving the sly nod to the whole "clique-y clique clique" kerfluffle.

Well played.

Why is this movie called Lying and not Chloe Stares Introspectively at Nothing?

Posted by: Jessica at September 10, 2009 8:40 PM

;) Thank you. I just like to poke bears with sticks from time to time. But with the dull end of the stick, 'cause I'm only teasing.

Posted by: Anna von Beaverplatz at September 10, 2009 8:45 PM

I just sat here on the couch and watched that entire thing. So, is it about three girls walking around in stylishly unstylish clothes and...and...lying somehow? So confused. The only thing dreamy about that was the song. The rest was, well...buttmud.

Posted by: Kiddo at September 10, 2009 8:47 PM

Its amazing how those actresses all still look 14 years old. Chloe Sevigny's gotta be pushing forty, right?

Posted by: Finn at September 10, 2009 8:50 PM

Wait, so I can just videotape my kids and Hollywood will make it a movie? Fucking sweet!

Posted by: admin at September 10, 2009 9:04 PM

It looked like Sofia Coppola's style of work there. Yawn.

Posted by: Goldie at September 10, 2009 9:20 PM

MOIST . . . Buttmud.

I just like saying that.

Well, that and "Take off your cufflinks."

Posted by: BWeaves at September 10, 2009 10:00 PM

chloe still makes me harken back to that night we took all that acid and at some point Kids was put on and didnt-want-to-watch-but-couldnt-look-away scenario; replace semi-bad memory lightning like effect with images of sweet sweet milla

Posted by: furtherbeyond at September 10, 2009 10:45 PM

Oh, AvB. How I love you.

Posted by: figgy at September 10, 2009 11:00 PM

Was Jena Malone wearing the Quaker Oats guy's hat in the middle there?

Where has Leelee Sobieski been hiding the past few years?

Why does frolicking in the woods reduce someone to tears?

What the hell is this movie about?

Posted by: Empress of All the Russias at September 10, 2009 11:02 PM

That song sounded like "Pretty in Pink" at 3/4 speed.

Posted by: Lindsey with an 'e' at September 11, 2009 12:29 AM

Considering the last few posts, it is unsurprising that this one makes little sense. Congratulations on graduating from a shitty review site to a shitty pop-culture site. Way to go, Pajiba!!

Posted by: me at September 11, 2009 1:09 AM

By the way, when you post "reviews," it would be a good idea to keep Dustin away from the keyboard, as he has obviously never written an actual review. He is too much about "scathing" and "bitchy." It seems that he can't write anything close to what any reasonable person would consider a review, without just being a scathing bitch.

Posted by: Jessica at September 10, 2009 8:40 PM

Copyright issues, as that is the unofficial subtitle of everything she's ever been in.

Posted by: myysharona (formerly Sharon) at September 11, 2009 2:29 AM

That looks just fucking terrible. If I ever see that, it will be because I am being punished for something.

Posted by: The Wandering Parakeet at September 11, 2009 3:01 AM

Ok...I had this weird crush on Jena Malone from Waterworld. She was in Waterworld right? Anyway...I had this huge crush on her, then I thought I was a pedophile. Then I realized she was kinda close to the same age as me. Then it went away. Now its back. mmmmmmmmmm.

Posted by: Deistbrawler at September 11, 2009 4:43 AM

Deistbrawler unless she was dressed up like Dennis Hopper she wasn't, that was Tina Majorino also known as Mac also known as the girl who will never ever turn into a MILF. and since we are on topic I LOVE WATERWORLD, ok maybe love is a big word but I do watch it religiously when it's on, and the hell with you people, Nathan Fillion is with me on this, and we all know Nathan Fillion is genetically unable to do any wrong. cause you see even when it looks like he is, it's just part of a maser plan you are simply not aware of. Do you question God? I don't question Nathan Fillion

Posted by: rio at September 11, 2009 6:28 AM

Look, I *know* Ms. Sevigny has legs that go on forever, but is that really all it takes? Whenever I see her in anything all I can think of is that if you gave her an inch or two of dark roots and some gum to snap on and she'd be the check-out girl at the Family Dollar in Pulaski, Virginia.
I haven't seen Big Love yet, though, can she actually act?

Posted by: AdaHaze at September 11, 2009 8:05 AM

Just to clarify...do you spell "buttmud" with one "d" or two? 'Cause I'll be using it for the foreseeable future and I'd hate to be getting it wrong. The additional "d" balances the word out nicely. BUTTMUDD. BUTTMUD. Hmm. I'm going with the extra d.

Posted by: DeadBessie at September 11, 2009 8:15 AM

I really don't think Jena Malone was in Waterworld. It was some cute dimply kid who disappeared after the '90's.
Anyway, the fashion crown must be having a ball with this trailer. And I think I like it.

Posted by: deadpancakes at September 11, 2009 8:42 AM

Don't worry, rio, there are those of us who are not ashamed to love Waterworld. Why, I myself have been known to reverentially pull the DVD gently from its place on my shelves, demand silence within a .8-mile radius, and pour a glass of fancy old wine (alright, it's generally the cheap stuff, but I pretend it's fancy) in the good crystal before lovingly placing it in the DVD player and watching in awe, as though a viewing is a special occasion (which it most certainly is). And I have done so since long before I ever knew anything of Nathan Fillion. Long live Mac!

Posted by: Anna von Beaverplatz at September 11, 2009 8:53 AM

figgy, are you listening, dear? If "Buttmudd" is NOT the title of next week's EE, I will fly to Honduras to kick your ass.

Posted by: dammitjanet at September 11, 2009 9:02 AM

See, this is why it is so important to spay or neuter your hipster.

Posted by: Eep at September 11, 2009 10:01 AM

Well slap my ass and call me a hipster douchebag cause I want to see this film. I'm picking up Swimming Pool vibes for some reason, and the trailer is very well edited.

I guess I should go have my girlfriend hack my hair into some unrecognizable form of asymmetry, not shave for the next week, and shrink all my pants in the dryer.

Posted by: Robert at September 11, 2009 10:58 AM

Buttmud? Is that some kind of inside joke? I don't get it.

Marry me Anna! We'll live in my igloo and survive on moose meat and love....

rio Count me in as a waterworld lover. I can't not watch that movie when it's on tv. I love it and I'm not ashamed to admit it. I had no idea, however, that my Canadian boyfriend Nathan Fillion loved it too. And my love for him grows even stronger.

Posted by: Kelly at September 11, 2009 11:08 AM

M Blash? Oh, puh-lease.

Did Chloe look at everyone at the end of that trailer, or just me?

Posted by: Captain Tuttle at September 11, 2009 11:34 AM

well i don't fucking know what the fucking point of any of that uhhh film is. for fuck's sake, give anyone a damn video camera these days...sheesh. i'm gonna go get footage of my cat taking a messy shit in her liter box and submit it to cannes and expect everyone to be lavishing praise on me and my cat's poops.

That being said, Eep, can we get that on a teeshirt? I have some serious hipsterdouchebags here in Chicago I would like to alienate.

Posted by: JenVegas at September 11, 2009 12:21 PM

Tina Majorino was in the Nappy Dynamite movie with the guy with
the fuzzy hair and smelly moonboots.

Yes, I too was shocked to see her 'back' in something.

Posted by: Ms MoMO at September 11, 2009 1:04 PM

90 minutes of pretty girls wafting around a field?
Lying? Lying down, maybe. Cause that's what this made me feel like doing...

Well... in my bunk.
But I would eventually have a nap..

Posted by: Odnon at September 11, 2009 2:11 PM

That was without a doubt the worst semaphore work I've ever seen.
