Michael Douglas is Nuts…

King of californiaThe trailer and poster for the new Michael Douglas flick 'King of California' is online. It's looks like an old-man version of 'Little Miss Sunshine' too me, but that might not be a terrible thing. Have I ever liked Michael Douglas as an actor or was he just in so many films in the 80's and 90's I didn't have a choice? Although I do like it when quite straight actors grow beards and play crazy. 'The Dude' for example.

An unstable dad (Douglas) who after getting out of a mental institution tries to convince his daughter (Evan Rachel Wood) that there's Spanish gold buried somewhere under suburbia.

Ooh actually I just thought of one I liked 'Falling Down'… kinda, and maybe 'Black Rain' too, but only for the decapitation scene.

  1. Ok, we are finally falling out dude. Douglas is a fucking legend in EVERYTHING!!!! Take it back… hehe.

    This looks great I think. Very Sideways.

  2. Hah Hah… I can’t help it… maybe it’s childhood over-exposure, he looks like he has double the amount of skin on his face that most people have. I’m all about Kirk.

    I’ll give this a chance though don’t get me wrong…and it’s produced by Payne so it can’t be all bad

  3. You can’t knock the Douglas! Gordon Gecko is a legend and who else could have carried off that olive green v-neck sweater that he wore to the nightclub in Basic Instinct?

  4. Hah.. I’d forgot about the club scene in Basic Instinct…ahhhh Douglas…

    I know i’m alone, i’m ok with it.

  5. Guys, that shit is extremely trendy again now. Not kidding. Check any style mag.

    Talk about ahead of his time!
