"Beutiful Losers" movie project rejected

Post by jarkko »

From the website of MTL Art (thanks to Michael Epstein for hint):

"Beautiful Losers": the final update

2002-12-02

Since news of a possible film production of "Beautiful Losers" was made
public several years ago, people have been asking us when it will
hit the screens. Sadly it is not to be. The official word is Leonard Cohen
has decided that, for complicated and personal reasons, he does not want to see the film made after all. That's showbiz. Our script still stands as a work of art in its own
right. Those of you who wish to read it and have a spare $50.00US lying
around can order it from us.

Cheers,

Jacob and Tony

The holy order against filth

Post by peter danielsen »

We in The holy order against filth, salute this. It would be awful to see the images of that sinful book up on the big screen. The vision of the book is all wrong, it smudges the air with nasty pictures. No, lets instead meet and be praise each other, and fight those who don't agree with us, they are evil, they know of no god, they rejected Jesus.

oh and by the way, Tom waits is awful too, his lyrics are upsetting:

"I don't believe you go to heaven
when you're good
everything goes to hell
anyway"

Offcourse you go to heaven when you're good, otherwise why should we bother so much?

peter, my holy brother,

i do prefere your new image.
having you around fills air with positive energy. i can simply smell it. it's breath of god's love for all of his children. i'm sure if we work together, we'll be able to arrange mr. waits' lyrics to be banned for all time!!!

then we can move to other pagan sinners and burn them together with their dirty works. perhaps mr. randy newman could be next?

do we have to endure hearing this sort of insults to our holy father?:
The Christians and the Jews were having a jamboree
The Buddhists and the Hindus joined on satellite TV
They picked their four greatest priests
And they began to speak
They said "Lord the plague is on the world
Lord no man is free
The temples that we built to you
Have tumbled into the sea
Lord, if you won't take care of us
Won't you please please let us be?"

And the Lord said

"I burn down your cities--how blind you must be
I take from you your children and you say how blessed are we
You must all be crazy to put your faith in me
That's why i love mankind
You really need me
That's why i love mankind"
