You look like father and son.

 

[C.Dark.DN]

He looks like he could be your father or you when you're older.

[funkystudent]

cool stuff.

But this might be the best chance we will ever have to get will smith to take a photo with will smith.

Pull strings, call in favors, bribe some corrupt security guards. Just do whatever needs to be done to get those two in the same room at some point.

 

[cuevas. PhD.]

Oh, this dude was also there. Not sure what he does, but he was hanging around the production office the whole day.

Damn Will looks old.

 

[Kak.efes]

You just revealed the twist mayne.

It's either that, or Will Smith and his son are dead, but the strange regenerative ecosystem on the planet is somehow keeping them alive, so they can never leave.

 

[C.Dark.DN]

nah, will has a lot of youth that's dominant over the signs of ageing.

Whats with your tag? If I make movie do I get tag?

People get tags for many things.

No but try posting about a dozen multiples of the same thread while drunk; worked for me.

The tag's older than the movie.

Just a reminder that if you're at all interested it is really worth following Night on twitter - @MNightShyalaman. He is dropping a ton of information about the movie, which I'm sure will only pick up once production starts next week. Also he will totally answer your questions.

Gary, I have to ask. How is Night? Don't just shoprave this guy into future earth, give us some details.

Dude obviously seems like a nice guy, but he's gotta have some issues. In the interviews following the hilarious disaster that was TLA, one journalist asked him how he felt about having the lowest RT rating ever, and he was acting totally aloof. "THEY DON'T LIKE IT?"

Kinda freaked me out that people are that way.

This is going to sound like PR, but in all honesty he is one of the nicest and most gracious people I've ever worked with in this business. He is a terrific, very generous collaborator and there is absolutely no artifice about him at all. And he is smarter and more thoughtful and cares more about his work than pretty much anyone else I know. I take people as I find them and I loved every minute of my experience working with Night.

Awesome. I'm glad there are good people in the industry.

Gary Whitta Gary Whitta Gary Whitta Gary Whitta is actually a gramically correct sentence, look it up.

 

[charsace]

For your next movie you should work with Will and Denzel. I already have the title, Black Face Off.

Will Smith steals Denzel's swag and Denzel has to fight to get it back?

No one man sh...

Cast & crew is flying out to Costa Rica now, first day of shooting is Monday. Then onto Philadelphia, Utah and Northern California. Lots of fun locations!

How does this man still have a career?

Bah.

[Discotheque]

Whoa Jaden Smith got tall

 

[Dany]

Them two were great in Pursuit of Happyness.

 

[Rygar 8 Bit]

gary you need to trick both wills into a arena and make them fight to the death to see who is the will smithest of them all

 

[Ashhong]

Whoa, Jayden looks all growed up. And nooooo Will Smith with white hairs?! Tell me it aint so

 

[Daft_Cat]

Why do I get the strange feeling that this won't suck?

and no, it has nothing to do with the screenwriter being a few posts above me.

As if we didn't already know, the official title is now After Earth.

2 Smiths, Shyamalan and Whitta? Baseball needs to amend it's rules and allow four strikes.

will smith 2.0

 

[Messi]

Seeing will smith getting older depresses me. What the fuck, jaden was so young in karate kid.

 

[Stinkles]

No but try posting about a dozen multiples of the same thread while drunk; worked for me.

i did not know this.

 

[Miggytronz]

Dang Jaden grew! How old is he now?



Congrats Gary on this project getting green lit!

 

[tino]

Well the twist is obvious there. Its probably the opposite of the title. So I guess they are not "after earth", but rather in an emulation of some sort.

 

[t-ramp]

13, apparently. Happens to be a bit less than a month younger than my brother... but definitely older at the same time.

 

[Akia]

Gary's images from the last page died. Can anyone repost them?

 

[Harry Potter]

where in norcal?

I'm curious of this as well.

 

[KtSlime]

I see water in that one picture, Gary, please promise me if I were to watch the film, that it's not going to have some sort of water based twist at the end. I don't think I could take it yet again.

That's a nice picture. Makes me think I should get some piccies like that with my sons.

I don't want to let go of either form. Maybe the tag line should be, "If you loved Tree of LIfe and Jurassic Park, you'll love After Earth."

Two of my favorite movies. Whitta, what have you created?!
