gerardsangel4977 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Oh I know it's super unlikely, but if they film it at the end of 2013, then they could conceivably release it at the end of 2014... I remain hopeful, but not realistically expecting it. I just hope the ball gets rolling, and more importantly that this thing HAPPENs. I think it deserves to exist and would make an incredible movie if done right. Oh, yes, I think/hope they will start making it by then. I just don't see it feasibly being *finished* in that amount of time. But I definitely agree that it needs to happen regardless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteTim Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 They could easily film a movie in 2013 and have it out by the end of 2013... The Avengers was filmed in 2 1/2 months effects in 3 months out less than 4 months after that if GD are producers doesnt mean much they can easily show em rough drafts to get approvals producer titles dont really mean much (a friend I know her her name as a producer on a Marvel movie never once set foot on any of the sets or had any invovlment except for fuckin the executive producer...) but i think they should wait for Billie and have him play St Jimmy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who's making it has it been cast yet? I think it'd be cool as a 2014 movie considering AI's 10 year mark... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playtone (I would assume this would be in conjunction with a larger studio, most likely Warner Bros?) No one has been cast yet. These things take forever. For all we know there hasn't even been a final script. The last we heard anything as far as I can recall was this interview with Michael Mayer when the musical came to Toronto last year. Michael makes it sound like it's ready to go, which I don't entirely believe, but it's promising... but it's been a year and nothing has happened American Idiot - Interview with Michael Mayer & Tom Kitt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't make a difference to me, just curious. Yeah, Tom Hanks is a fan. There's a video interview with him when AI was in LA and he says the phrase "God bless Green Day" And Tom Hanks is lord.

No Warner Bros sold Warner Music Group a year after AI was released to a different company that lasted a year then WMG was self owned until 2010 when they were on verge of shutting down when Access Industries bought WMG only thing WMG kept when sold was the name. Warner Bros Home Video still distributes WMG's stand alone dvd's and blu rays but that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katarina. Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Radio Veronica (Dutch radio station) presented their Top 1000 (best hits) of all time for this year. Green Day made it to the list again, four times. Boulevard of Broken Dream is number 156, Wake me up when September ends is 522, When I Come Around is 568, and Basket Case made the list at number 937.

Rimoto08 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 In regards to the movie, I can't wait for it but I'm a bit skeptical. I say this because we may have such high expectations for it and then it turns out to be awful. I say they should take as much time as they need to make a great movie out of this.

desertrose Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 The story behind Green Day's '¡Uno!' album art Graphic designer Chris Bilheimer has an impressive track record. In addition to working as REM’s full-time artistic director, he created the cover art for Neutral Milk Hotel’s indie classic, In The Aeroplane Over the Sea. He’s also designed every Green Day album cover since 1997′s Nimrod. This year, he produced the grungy neon artwork for the punk rockers’ latest trilogy, ¡Uno! ¡Dos! and ¡Tré!. From his new home in the music-obsessed Austin, Texas, Bilheimer talked about the inspiration for the aesthetic, and revealed the lo-fi, yet surprisingly contemporary process involved in its creation. As told by: Chris Bilheimer When I originally went out to Oakland to meet with [Green Day] in April or May, they had just played a surprise show in Austin, Texas and were recording demos of some of their songs here in town. By the time they went into the studio, they already had over thirtysomething songs written. They were really focused and really had it together. When I went in the first day, Billie Joe [Armstrong, the lead singer] had taken pictures of everyone with his iPhone, had drawn big X’s over their eyes, and had pinned them up on the wall. I ended up really liking that idea. That was our starting off point, these graffiti’d pictures that he had done. After listening to the music, I felt like it was a return to their shorter, poppier, three-chord punk rock songs. They also had a side project called the Foxboro Hottubs, which is very much a throwback to ‘60s garage bands — [¡Uno!] had a little bit of that feel, and we discussed it being more of a fun party album, as opposed to the more heavy, thematic, personal, and political albums that the last two albums [American Idiot and 21st Century Breakdown] were. We really wanted to go with something a lot more fun and easy. Somehow, and I don’t know how we got there, we started off with ‘60s garage, and it slowly turned more into ‘80s skateboard graphics. So those were the two inspirations for the visual look. In keeping with the quick and dirty style of the record — as opposed to it being a big, orchestrated rock opera — we didn’t go with a big photo shoot for the covers. Everyone shot their own photos with their iPhones. All three of those photos were taken by Billie Joe, Mike [Dirnt], and Tré [Cool]. They took them themselves and texted me their photos. It just kept with the spirit of the record. It was very DIY, lo-fi, and fun http://music-mix.ew.com/2012/12/07/green-day-uno-album-art-chris-bilheimer/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
