Trailers: The Number 23

Trailers: The Number 23

November 4th 2006 @ 9:52 am

If you’re 555, then Jim Carrey is 2/3.

Or that’s what the attractive trailer for Joel "Let’s cast Ahnud as Mr. Freeze" Schumacher’s latest film would have you believe.  I’m a fan of the number, there are a chain of coincedences in my own life that led it to be my favorite early on, but I’ve never thought it had any kind of malevolent power behind it.

The reasons to see the movie are numerous (ha. ha.), so I won’t list them all, but if Jim Carrey pulls off the Michael Rooker/Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer vibe as well as the trailer predicts, then this could be another landmark film for the actor’s constantly growing chops.

    I’ve got the same thing with the number 311. Any ideas?

    Write a script and sell it for millions?

    No, you misunderstood me. I did write a script. It is called The Number 311 and it stars Adam Sandler and he has a really bad temper and he yells really loud at people when they mention Nick Hexum. And it has Rob Schneider too.
