| | | I'm excited.
| | | Thats interesting, ill have to check that one out.
| | | Sweet
| | | Is Adam Sandler gonna be Ornette Coleman?
| | | Should be great
| | | I hadn't heard about this until now. I'm excited 
| | | Who?
| | | This is becoming a real fad - depicting the life of music legends in movies.
| | | Johnny Cash, Ray Charles, they're doing one on Kurt Cobain...it's madness!
| | | Fucking awesome!!!! I wonder if it's based on Miles' autobio!
I don'know bout Cheadle playing Davis, but the writers of Nixon... that's cool
| | | So who's gonna play Coltrane? Denzel Washington? I'll puke if they don't put Trane in the movie. And I also hope they don't fuck over the Bitches Brew period.
| | | This is pretty unreal.
I agree, Coltrane needs some bumps here. Sidney Poitier.
