Prepare to get slapped ...

[fembuck]

I can't fathom how it happened, but I somehow didn't hear about Bitch Slap: The Movie until backslashglare   gave me the heads up.  So, #1, thank you backslashglare   and #2 TRAILER TRAILER TRAILER .... TRAILER ...

Honestly, do yourselves a favor and watch the trailer! (link to official website)

Inspiration: “Bitch Slap” is a post-modern, thinking man’s throwback to the “B” Movie/Exploitation films of the 1950’s - 70’s as well as a loving, sly parody of same. Inspired by the likes of “Dragstrip Girls,” “Faster Pussycat, Kill, Kill,” “Kung Fu Nun” and the pantheon of Blacksploitation films, “Bitch Slap” mixes hot girls, fast cars, big guns, nasty tongues, outrageous action and jaw-dropping eye candy with a message… don’t be naughty! - source

Synopsis: “Bitch Slap” follows three bad girls (a down-and-out stripper, a drug-running killer and a corporate powerbroker) as they arrive at a remote desert hideaway to extort massive booty from a ruthless underworld kingpin. Things quickly spin out of control as allegiances change, truths are revealed, other criminals arrive for the score, the fate of the world hangs in the balance and they are forced to confront a villain much worse than they ever expected… themselves. - source

It's like Grindhouse (only Dakota and Cherry would've gotten it on - or Julia and Arlene, or Abernathy and Kim, or Zoe and Kim, or Lee and Abernathy or ... well, you get the point) 

For your visual pleasure ... Wonder Woman

And it gets better!  The cast list for the movie is amazing, geeks everywhere will rejoice. 

1.  Lucy Lawless
2. Renée O'Connor

Playing nuns!

And at this point I don't think I need to keep going but I will ;)

3. Zoë (motherfrakking) Bell
4. Kevin Sorbo
5. Michael Hurst
6. William Gregory Lee (from Xena,Dark Angel and Dante's Cove)
7. Mark Lutz (aka Groo, from Angel)

*sniffles, wipes eyes*  If somehow Tracie Thoms had been part of this movie, I think it would have been so awesome that my mind would have exploded upon viewing.

Can it be 2009 now?

this.is.FUCKING BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!!

I know. I got a little misty-eyed after I saw the trailer. *remembers the shot of them getting out of the car ... is verklempt*

didnt it say christmas 08 at the end?

I believe that it did. Some site I was on said 2009, but I'd much prefer Christmas so I'm gonna go with that. *please let it come out on my birthday, please let it come out on my birthday!*

[alexz6.livejournal.com]

that shot of them getting out of the car was pretty attention grabbin'. I dont normally watch videos posted on lj cause i tend to get sidetracked by the videos and end up searching stuff on the video subject and forget to go back to lj but i am SOOO glad i watched this one!

and i'm choosing to believe it comes out on christmas as well. i believe the trailer *nod*

Lucy and Renee as nuns...

iconed

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

Awesome!

Did you find this pic somewhere or did you make it, cause it is awesomeness personified.

Re: iconed

[sinandmisery.livejournal.com]

If you go on bitchslapmovie.com and click on "Bitches & Boners", it brings up a scrolling section with all the characters. So, of course I had to steal it as photographic proof since imdb still says Lucy is just rumored.

(oh and I found out the hard way that although the characters automatically scroll from left to right, if you drag your mouse over to the right side of the screen, there are more characters on the other side of Hel, Trixie, and Camero).

Also, it should be noted that when watching the trailer, I couldn't help but want Camero to be Danneel Harris. She'd kinda be perfect for the role.

[bartzina13.livejournal.com]

That. Is. GOLD.

[sinandmisery.livejournal.com]

isn't it though?

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

I know, I saw the trailer and I thought that it was too good to be true. Like I must have smoked a whole bunch of crack and forgotten about it and been hallucinating something of that epic level of awesomeness.

This movie cannot be released too soon!

CULT STATUS!

[bartzina13.livejournal.com]

Xena playing Mother Superior OMG. I am seeing this yesterday.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

I know. Why does Hollywood insist on making nuns hot??? *feels dirty*

I also love that in the picture with Sister Batril (see: icon), it totally looks like they're on the prowl for some naughty girls to spank.

*Sigh* This movie needs to be released yesterday.

[crys-22.livejournal.com]

That trailer is made of pure win. Is there really a movie out there that exist called, “Kung Fu Nun” and I never knew about it?

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

I know, it's pretty much everything that is awesome about the world.

And, I don't think there is actually a movie called "Kung Fu Nun" (if there is I can't find any reference to it), but now that the idea has been put into my head, I really really really want there to be a Kung Fu Nun movie.

[crys-22.livejournal.com]

I've heard of "Faster Pussycat, Kill, Kill," so maybe somewhere out there, "Kung Fu Nun" exist and we just have to find it. It can be our very own adventure.

If not, I say we make it ourselves! It could be EPIC.

[boomwizard.livejournal.com]

I... have no words. There are tears in my eyes. TEARS. If I see this movie in the theatres I will die a blissful death seconds after the credits roll.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

There are tears in my eyes. TEARS.

I fee, ya. I totally feel, ya. I had to take a moment to put myself back together after watching it. It was that beautiful. I think the greater than that might be Carla Gugino naked riding a unicorn.

If I see this movie in the theatres I will die a blissful death seconds after the credits roll.

I plan on bringing a box of kleenex. It going to be majestic.

[boomwizard.livejournal.com]

I can think of many a great sight but I must admit, Carla Gugino nekkid on a unicorn sounds horribly tempting.

If I can't get any of my friends to go see it with me I may just be desperate enough to go see it by myself. Two of my friends flat out refused, and I'm unsure about the other. The last agreed he'd go see it with me on account of the hot sex. Score!

[the-girl-20.livejournal.com]

You had be at the nuns. Witness me rejoicing.

Freakily enough, I watched an episode of Xena last night for the first time in...well, it's been a while.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

You had be at the nuns. Witness me rejoicing.

lol. Why must Hollywood make nuns so hot in movies? I feel like I should feel bad about it, but they're so hot I just can't.

Freakily enough, I watched an episode of Xena last night for the first time in...well, it's been a while.

Aw, Xena. This is making me want to bust out my season 2 DVDs and give an episode a watch. I used to be SO obsessed with that show.

[sweetllamia.livejournal.com]

Herc/Xena heaven! OMG! Just a shame Kevin Smith isn't still around to top it all off.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

Word. It's like after the trailer I didn't think the movie could be any more awesome, and then I was like Ioulos! Gabrielle! Virgil! Hercules! X-X-Xena!!! and I had to take deep calming breaths.

And now I just wish that Hudson Leick had gotten in on this action too.

[sweetllamia.livejournal.com]

Oh yea gods yeah! What a body! What a wicked smile! Does it for me every time.

[murasaki1200.livejournal.com]

OMG! Genius!

These guys are framing their shots squarely where we want them, ie: boobs!

Althouh I feel compelled to point out that size doesn't matter and small breasts are very nice too. Ahem!

Anyways, this is like a cross between Thelma and Louise on crack and Kill Bill, yo! Can't wait!

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

These guys are framing their shots squarely where we want them, ie: boobs!

It was those shots of them getting out of the car that let me know 20 seconds into the trailer that I was going to love this shit. And then they followed it up with that shot of Trixie bending over, and I was like "greatest trailer ever".

Anyways, this is like a cross between Thelma and Louise on crack and Kill Bill, yo!

*gets misty-eyed*

[arty-ali.livejournal.com]

OMG, this looks BRILLIANT! The casting of Lucy and Renee as nuns is inspired. Judging by Renee's longing look in the pic, the sister is going to have a major crush on the mother superior. Yay! Oh, and the "hello, meet my jubblies" shot of the three women exiting the car was both smokin' and hilarious. *goes to watch trailer again*

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

Judging by Renee's longing look in the pic, the sister is going to have a major crush on the mother superior.

I know! That's the first thing I thought when I saw the pic "are we going to get Xena/Gabrielle action" with the added bonus of Nun costumes? *crosses fingers* I hope, I hope, I hope!

Oh, and the "hello, meet my jubblies" shot of the three women exiting the car was both smokin' and hilarious.

That's when I feel in love with the trailer *aw, fuzzy memories*

[tarebear23.livejournal.com]

i've heard about it a few months ago when they were still in the process of shooting by way of another LJ post interviewing the director. what got me hooked into the movie is the idea of the XWP and HTLJ stars reunion, but now that a new trailer is out, i think i found myself more reason to watch it lol.

here are some other character posters i found:
(http://s123.photobucket.com/albums/o305/cesibear/anik2/?action=view&current=bitchslap_mini.jpg) (http://s123.photobucket.com/albums/o305/cesibear/anik2/?action=view&current=bitchslap2_mini.jpg) (http://s123.photobucket.com/albums/o305/cesibear/anik2/?action=view&current=bitchslap3_mini.jpg) (http://s123.photobucket.com/albums/o305/cesibear/anik2/?action=view&current=bitchslap4_mini.jpg)

[tarebear23.livejournal.com]

sorry it's me again. I just found this clip of Lucy in a panel at the Comic Con, and at around 1:50, she begins talking a bit about Bitch Slap. the whole clips is pretty funny too.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbGhSzhQdes

[tarebear23.livejournal.com]

i also found this interview with Renee for the Ausxip site and she mentions a bit about working on Bitch Slap. it's around 1:00 of the clip. oh! she also did a funny impersonation of Mother Superior.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bE4WeLkFi4I

and i must say, ROC looked mighty good in the cowboy hat!

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

Oooh, thanks for the links *goes to check them out*

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

here are some other character posters i found:

Awesome! The Nuns one is just comedy gold, and the one of the girls is just an amalgamation of everything that is awesome, tight skirts, open buttons, big guns, samurai swords, and cocktail dresses *nods*

[novak_fan]

OMFG is like Xenaverse heaven! Lucy, Renee, Kevin, Micheael...even William. Oh Ted Raimi, where are you? We didn't have a Xena movie but this could work.

[novak_fan]

I went to the Official site and oh god LOL that little vid that it plays whit each character...the L and R really cracks me up, SO hilarious! I have forgot how good in comedy those two can be.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

Oh Ted Raimi, where are you?

I'm like "Where's Callisto, bitches?"!! Seriously, if Hudson was in this it would be like perfect. As it is, I can't complain though, it's just too much awesome all rolled into one sexy package.

the L and R really cracks me up, SO hilarious!

Oh, I know. I watched that intro a couple of times. I love how at the end of it, Renee is wrestles Lucy's arms down. Good times.

[novak_fan]

(this is my edited comment,damn LJ)

Good times

Exactly my thoughts. The drama Xena episodes were ok but I think that my favorites were the comedy ones. A day in the life FTW! They always played a lot more with subtex on those imo

I'm like "Where's Callisto, bitches?"!!

LoL I have forgot about her, I can't believe that! She's the one that is missing here.
Though Aphrodite could have worked too. Or Eve. I still think that Eve had this gay weird wibe with that amazon girl *space out for a moment*

But well, Callisto IS Callisto.

[trancer21.livejournal.com]

That squealing sound you heard was me having the geek-gasm of *all* geek-gasms!

It's like Grindhouse..

But better!! Because of the Xena smorgasborg. If only they could package it as a double feature with Jennifer's Body!

Dude, this is soo going to wash the bad taste of the Twilight movie out of my mouth which I'm also totally going to see because it looks absolutely cracktastic!!

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

That squealing sound you heard was me having the geek-gasm of *all* geek-gasms!

lol! What's gonna happen when you actually see the movie? *is really interested to hear how that'll go*

If only they could package it as a double feature with Jennifer's Body!

O-M-G. That would be so great. That idea is so awesome that I am now going to be irrationally pissed at the studios involved when this does not come to fruition. *drifts into a very pleasant dream world*

this is soo going to wash the bad taste of the Twilight movie out of my mouth which I'm also totally going to see because it looks absolutely cracktastic!!

lol! I'm totally going to see Twilight too. Vampires, Robert Pattinson and Cam Gigandet are too much for me to resist. I only made through about half of the book, but I'll be in that motherfrakking theater.

*grumbles* stupid cracktastic movies and vampire fetish reeling me in!

[lightbluenym.livejournal.com]

Dear god, can we have this now??? I will be first in line at the theaters, seriously...

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

I know. It's almost cruel to tease us with this and then withhold it for so long. In a way it's probably better that I didn't hear about it until now, because if I knew about it months ago, I'd be crazy with anticipation.

[tarebear23.livejournal.com]

i know what you mean! i knew about this weeks ago and i couldn't wait for 2009 already (that was the loose date they gave out)... good to know that i have a specific date to wait for now and it's this year to boot (albeit the last month of the year lol). but still! much yey!

[lightbluenym.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah, and I want Camero's bike...

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

I want Trixie, lol

[backslashglare.livejournal.com]

Hee :D

And I also totally thought Wonder Woman about Trixie! Actually, first I thought about Sara Pezzini for the Witchblade movie...

[sweetllamia.livejournal.com]

Bad news - YouTube took the clip down cause it breaks their rules. I can't see how but... bummer!

I was playing it almost constantly yesterday - flashing boobs, throbbing base line. Oh Yeah!

[tarebear23.livejournal.com]

hi. here's another one for your viewing pleasure (and everyone else's):



you could also just download the clip so you can view it anytime :-)

[sweetllamia.livejournal.com]

erm how? I'm not quite that technical

[(Anonymous)]

Thanks - I will give it a try before wimpering girlishly and asking for more help lol!

[tarebear23.livejournal.com]

you can go to www.keepvid.com just copy the streaming vid's url and paste it in the URL box and click Download. a Download Link box will pop and just click on which format you want it downloaded -- as an FLV or MP4. hope that helps.

another easy way is if you have RealPlayer, because if you do all you need is to right click on the vid and click Download This Video to RealPlayer.

hope that helps :-)
