An action comedy about an evil automobile? Well, we know the Decepticons are coming back next summer but this new spec has nothing to do with Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen. Variety reports that MGM and newcomer Wayne McClammy are teaming up for Le Car, with McClammy directing, based on a screenplay that he co-wrote alongside Will Burke. Wyck Godfrey and Marty Bowen producing through their Temple Hill shingle.
Plot Concept: Le Car tells the story of an unconventional group of CIA agents who attempt to stop an evil automobile from detonating a hydrogen bomb at the Lake Placid Winter Olympics.
For you Jimmy Kimmel fans, McClammy was the man who directed the "I'm F**king Matt Damon" and "I'm F**king Ben Affleck" videos, which I'll place below for your viewing pleasure. This will be the second feature film for McClammy after Fox hired him to lead its comedy Cool School earlier this month.
And now, those two much talked about Jimmy Kimmel videos from director Wayne McClammy. (Not Safe for Work)
Definitely funny...Agreed Pony. Since it's Friday and the news story was related, I thought it would be cool to include it here.
The "I F**ked Ben Affleck" video was on Oscar night so it had more cameos in it but there's a lot of Hollywood fans of Kimmel because he plays it straight with them. That's one of the added bonuses for his talk show vs. veterans like Leno or Letterman.
There's a backstory to the "I'm F**king Matt Damon". For years, Jimmy has been messing with him (and he's been in on it of course). We have a thread dedicated to the videos in our Celebrities forum here at the Mania messageboards.
Just earlier in the week I was telling wolfman to check out a film called The Car from 1977. It's about an evil car possessed and just killing people.
How did Kimmel manage to get all those people for the video, they must really like him. He has come a long way from his days at The Man Show. He was always funny.
I watched The Car when I was a little kid and it scared the crap out of me.<BR itxtvisited="1" /><BR itxtvisited="1" />I watched these videos months ago when I read about them in Entertainment Weekly. The first one is just a riot I think because of the shock value and it was my understanding that Matt wanted to get Kimmel back for saying every single night on his show that he "ran out of time for Matt Damon."<BR itxtvisited="1" /><BR itxtvisited="1" />Maybe that's just part of the gag and it was Kimmel all along making up the joke. Though I could see his girlfriend coming up with the idea too.
Yeah, well Kimmel did this thing every once an awhile where he would apologize to Matt Damon for bumping him off the show because they ran out of time. Then he actually got Matt Damon on the show and bumped him. It was a hilarious skit, because Matt really looked like he was pissed. Kimmel has been messing with him for years so Matt and Sarah Silverman got together and came up with I`m Fing Matt Damon. I think it might have been for Kimmel`s Birthday or something. He didn't know anything about. So he had to come back with "I`m Fing Ben Affleck" Its all funny stuff.
I think it was Kimmel's post-Oscar or post-Emmy show that Silverman pulled out the Damon video. Kimmel later did the Affleck one in response. Man, these things are fucking HILARIOUS! They kill me! So wrong!
killerville, you are absolutely right about McClammy. I can't believe that's a real name!
I first saw the videos about a month ago and I laughed my ass off. The Fucking Ben Affleck video had me in stiches...I mean, Brad Pitt, Harrison Ford, Cameron Diaz (when she did the finger fuck gesture I died laughing), Josh Grobin, Joel and Benji from Good Charlotte, Don Cheadle, the list goes on......I gain all new respect for Ben Affleck, Jimmy Kimmel, Matt Damon and Sarah Silverman,,,,actually, basically anyone in the videos...it shows not everyone in Hollywood is a Tom Cruise and can poke fun at themselves, and that is worth more than anything in my eyes.
