WTF? Sam Elliot is...The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then The Bigfoot

Featured Replies

I’m still not sure what to make of this.  Larry Miller and Ron Livingston as well  

 

See. Now this is a movie and an original idea Hollywood.

Not some remake. Not that super hero comic book shit. I'm in.

I could totally buy Sam as an SS assassin spy in WW2.  His German accent must have been flawless.

Oh, shut up.  You aren't seeing this.

They should throw in him stopping 9/11 and Columbine and make it a kind of Forrest Gump of badasses.

Also, Caitlin Fitzgerald sure looked like Helen Hunt in that preview (on phone screen). So disappointed to see it isn't her.

Yeah I'll definitely check it out.

Could he overcome his Oregon accent though?  The answer is probably yes.

This is the correct response.

Though if it is successful, it will likely be made into a comic book, and comic book movie sequels will follow.

What the shit? Someone actually approved this idea and spent money making it?

This is a biography, right?

 

 

 

I would pay good money to have been in the room when this was pitched to a studio.  "Okay see, J.B., ya got the Hitler death mystery thing and the Bigfoot mystery thing! Can't miss, right?!"

Shades of "The Jaws of Satan," a pitiful mashup of Jaws snd The Exorcist, in which a giant, demon-possessed cobra escapes from a wrecked circus train and terrorizes the helpless citizens of rural Alabama.  Starring Fritz Weaver as a priest cursed by Druids and a fakey ass seven-foot snake.  

What the hell.  I like Sam.  I'm in.

 

I mean I love Sam Elliott, but you're asking him to carry the movie? in 2019? and it's not some epic love story about old mountain people or something else in his wheelhouse? yeah it's gonna be bad.

Guaranteed this was inspired by The Most Interesting Man in the World commercials.  Probably a couple of guys hanging out watching TV, and it came on. One guy said "I'd watch a movie about that guy."  His screenwriter buddy replied, "hold my beer."

"The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then The Bigfoot" I wouldn't give a movie with this title the time of day.

 

Except it is Sam Elliot. Gotta be bad. Can't wait to see it.

Heard it’s a rewrite from an unused captain America screenplay. 
I knew it.

Fuck you Hollywood.

Decades after ending World War II by assassinating Adolf Hitler in an undercover operation, unsung American hero Calvin Barr is called upon by the government to hunt down the fabled Bigfoot, the carrier of a deadly plague that could destroy humanity.

So..sometime you eat the Barr, and sometimes the Barr eats you?

and the special effects were done by Douglas Trumbull.  Maybe you’ve heard of some of his work.  And he’s got an Oscar.  

Quote

Legendary filmmaker and visual effects pioneer, Douglas Trumbull, was one of the Special Photographic Effects Supervisors for 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968). He went on to become the Visual Effects Supervisor for such classics as Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977), Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979), and Blade Runner (1982)

85% on Rotten Tomatoes with 27 critic reviews. 

Quote

Critics Consensus: The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then the Bigfoot just about lives up to the wild promise of its title, due in no small part to Sam Elliott's world-weary work in the title role.

 

In.  Like Flynn.

but in this movie?

This is the kind of movie made for fucked up people like me.

And it has Sam Elliot.

You might not want to see this movie, and that's okay. You can go fuck yourself you worthless cum gurling clown show.

Come on now don't sugar coat it, tell them straight.

Let me try and understand this: we have a movie where Sam Elliot kills not only Hitler, but also Bigfoot, and you mother fuckers are complaining about it? The fuck is wrong with y'all?

I feel uncomfortable whenever I hear his voice.  He was on an Adam Carolla podcast a while back and I couldn't get this out of my head:

 

I fucking love Larry Miller


The five stages of drinking is an all time classic.

I don't smoke the green stuff, but this is one of those movies where it almost seems like a must.  Just get absolutely lit in the parking lot and stroll in for the mind-blowing.

“I think the thing off the top of my head might be, ‘It’s about fucking time,'” jokes Sam Elliott, in the wake of his first ever Oscar nomination this morning for his supporting role in Warner Brockings’ A Star Is Born. 

He can use this movie for a 2020 bid if necessary.

He didn’t get nominated for the Marlboro man?

Or Roadhouse?

This could end up being worse than that time Sam played Evel Knievel. 

Holy shit, 1974 I would have watched this thing like Dukes of Hazzard....every fucking Friday.

So am I the only one who's seen this? 

Spoiler

 

The battle with bigfoot was just fucking awful.  Like 6 million dollar man battling Big Foot but 10 x worst awful.
