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?

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?

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.

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.

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

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!

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*

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:

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.

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!!

[lightbluenym.livejournal.com]

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

[lightbluenym.livejournal.com]

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

[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...

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!
