Tag: Three Stooges
It was fun throwing some of my favorite physical comedy visuals at you in my Christmas Stocking post back in December, so here are 14 (get it?) more recent goodies that I’ve exclusively licensed from the finest internet vendors for your Valentine’s Day gift. (Click on any image to enlarge.)
Only five days to the new Three Stooges movie! (See previous post.) It’s directed by Peter and Bobby Farrelly, whose many film credits include Dumb & Dumber (1994); the main characters in that one, you may recall, were Harry and Lloyd (get it?).
It doesn’t open until April 13, 2012, but the first trailer for the new Three Stooges movie is out. With our iconic childhood heroes creepily leering after nuns and making an appearance on the Jersey Shore reality tv show, it’s clear we’re not in Kansas any more. Iconic, yes; moronic, very likely; ironic, no.
According to co-director Peter Farrelly, “They are Moe, Larry, Curly as you remember them. It’s not a biopic. It’s the episodes just as you saw but we rewrote, we have all new episodes. We have three episodes. Technically, each episode picks up where the last one left off. Each one begins with its own theme, so it’s about an hour and 25 minutes. Three episodes, fun, old-fashioned, but it takes place present-day, and they look, dress and sound like the Three Stooges.”
