One Thing to See & One Thing to Miss on November 12

by Jake Teresi

If you’re in the Boston area November 12-22, I suggest you see Blue Spruce Theatre’s production of Hedwig and the Angry Inch at the Arsenal Center in Watertown, MA.

It stars Danny Bryck, an actor from my upcoming fake doc, Make Them Cry. I wrote and shot their promotional video below:

Also, it seems 2012′s previews are being quite well received, as many news sources are reporting the phenomenal hype of Roland Emmerich’s new destruction epic. This could be his biggest movie yet. Forecasters predict a 70-90 million dollar weekend.

My advice: don’t go.

The trailer is ridiculous. Of course, I’m willing to suspend my disbelief during a movie like this, but repeatedly 15-20 times within a two minute trailer? Cusack and gang narrowly escape by mere milliseconds the collapsing, exploding earth again and again and again and again… I’m insulted that Emmerich thinks he can use the same stimulus perpetually and get away with it. Fuck that. Here is my backlash, my anti-hype.
