Oh and another film that screams ghey, indie-twee film is the loud and clear, “Emo Boy” that just got announced today by The Hollywood Reporter. It’s going to be directed by (ugh) Kyle Newman, the guy who directed the “Star Wars”-obsessives film “Fanboys,” had it taken away from him by the Weinstiens and then given back after much loud nerd protest. It’s based off a comic book and the writer-artist Stephen Edmond is writing the script. Though hopefully its a spoof of emo kids? THR say its “the satirical comic followed the travails of the most self-dramatizing young man in the history of the world, whose emotions were so intense he even had ‘ emo powers.’ “
Could be funny if that’s the case, but the “tone” mentions “Napoleon Dynamite” so that’s a huge negative point deduction. A point for “Harold and Maude” and zero points award or taken for “Zoolander.”
