Across the Universe
Good friend Noble has pointed us to this little trailer for Across the Universe. It seems to be a movie about the 60s, war, anti-war, riots, love, music, and overall the “60s". None the less, great selling points here seems to be Julie Taymore (director of Titus), Evan Rachel Woods (Pretty Perssuation and the other girl who kissed Mischa) and if u go far enough into the trailer, u can see that this movie has more psychedelic dance numbers than Baz Lurhman’s version of Big Fish. The trailer alrdy uses a plethora of Beatles music track clearly a lot more will be used through out the movie. The title its self is a reference to Beatle’s Across the Universe, one would assume. Even some of the female leads in the movie, according to IMDB, seems to be “Prudence" and “Sadie". This is looking to be a great movie, cept it doesn’t come out till Sept. 07’. Look forward to this, as this will be one of the movies the Wang keeps his paws on.
Bonus:
Rufus Wainwright’s cover of Across the Universe with a young Dakota Fanning.
or even Fionna Apple’s great cover with the awesome video
It seems that this is a one of the greatest Beatle songs, and it will forever inspire generations upon generations of great art.

This past weekends SNL featured Drew Barrymore and Lily Allen. Lilly Allen gave mediocre performance. I mean the girl has only been on stage for like what? 6 month and she hits it big in SNL, the pressure and stress alone probably was pretty daunting. Though the Wang has also read that young Lily still needs to get more experience under the belt for on-stage skills, though her music video for Alfie is a gem; all the Wang will say is that masturbating puppet at 1:10 mark… The Wang have to test her skillz come Coachella.
