"Bitch Slap" brings back the B-movie

... AfterEllen picked up on this - we've been following it for months now - and leave it to Ms. Snarker to grab it.

but i'll disagree with you - since it's the women's choice to be who they are, do what they do and say what they want, i have absolutely no problem with it - bring on the exploitation.

the tongue in cheek factor completely obliterates any sexist connotations for me.
it's going to be a full on A+ campy, rollicking good time at the grindhouse theatre my friends...

are still out there on their stalks

Christmas eh?  *goes off to clear diary*

Well it looks like a bad movie. And I think I am offended.

The problem is, Why do I have big grin on my face ;)

Lucy and Renee will appear in the movie. Ok I'm there.

*yelp

I saw these postcards at Comic Con..but i had NO IDEA.

Holy fuck!

I can has this for Christmas? For serious? :D

In the interest of thouroughness... there's a 3rd little scene during that split second.

Ahem ;)

I hope the movie will deliver all the goods. And then some :)

"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind." (Dr. Seuss)

I have to say, I do have a fondness for the exploitation genre at times, and this looks like so. much. fun.

I love the red-head.

So lets see. The stripper will be the one in the gold dress and the corporate power broker will be the one with the blouse unbuttoned to the waste (of course - it looks like a warm day after all) ... which means that the drug runner is looking rather wrist-cuffy, wouldn't you say? And tank-toppy. And biker-booty.

I think she's pretty much got something for an entire week of your blog, Ms S.

Not Only But Also

...wow.

.............wow.

and by wow i mean HELL YES~!

omg, inbd

i think this will be FUN!!!!!

F-ckin' A... Well, Belgium just went down another step on the ladder (it's now at -15) of best places to be in the world because they probably won't show it here or if they do, it'll be a year or maybe two after Christmas 2008...

I'm seriously considering moving to America just for the movies alone....

~ We're not sorry and we won't conform. It's not a  choice but something inborn ~

They had me at the first breast close up :-) I definitely want to see this.

There are some not well shot Comic-Con interviews floating around if you want to see the 3 women speaking about the film or at least I think they were.....

I liked Death Proof so I'll be seeing it. Zoe Bell's stunts were awesome and this has a huge fight scene. 

Well, i went (was force to) go to private catholic school.

but somehow i think that none of our nuns were anything like mother superior and her sister.

i would have noticed, i think.

so i solely have to go and see the movie because i am a good catholic girl. obviously. 

maybe we could skip church and go the cinema instead at x-mas. 

Yum....I mean UM, can I get my money back for my women's studies degree?

the first shot of the trailer my ovaries took over for my brain

But I would love to have the one in the tank top, tight pants, wrist cuffs, and boots wrapped up and put under my Christmas tree. :) And to have Lucy and Renee together again ... damn damn double damn hot nuns ... I'm going to hell. 

To see a World in a Grain of Sand
And Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour

*Seethes with self-righteous anti-exploitation women's rights anger*

How dare you ladies look at this and squeel with primal illicit leeeeeeeeeeeeeeesbian lust for this garbage!?! I took Women's Studies 101 and NOWHERE I see we celebrate this kind of misogyny displayed with no shame. How could you WANT to see this and not over-process this trash without out feeling shame when looking in the mirror?

Just to prove a point, I'm going to watch the trailer *watches trailer*

.........

Oh my god, nuns in the likes of Lucy Lawless? Is this Christmas? Oh my I have been "Bitch Slapped" to my senses. See in this film I can feel when the lady bends her knee to touch her foreheadwhen being serviced that is claiming her sexuality. These women have a choice to expose such lovely, supple, sweaty, I mean they have a choice to play these roles that break gender barriers by using such violent weapons and ample bosom.

*watches trailer again*

Very bad. In fact, they're wrong. I frown on them with the scowl of a 1000 women's studies majors.

dorothy snarker, you are so very very frickin' rad.  :D

AHHHHHHH! YES! YES YES YES!

I squealed. Twice.

Okay, several times. I lost count at two. Point being, I know where I'M going to be this December.

I can't wait.

I've got those two gorgeous nuns as my desktop pic and have been hitting the Bitch Slap site a time or two ... or three ... ok maybe a lot more than that. Ok, at least once a day to check for updates: http://www.bitchslapmovie.com/indexFlash.html

I eagerly await ... Christmas.

Check out the character profiles on this site under "Bitches and boners" for further info.

Lucy mentioned at Comic Con that even Mother Superior "gets some" ... I wonder what and with whom?

edit: oh yeah, they are also my profiled pic of choice ... heh

erm...

uhh...

hrm..

wow....

can i just have the redhead wrapped in a pretty bow under my christmas tree?

*thud*

That's like the best Christmas gift ever 

The Way The Cookie Crumbles

What's not to like?!

This makes me happy that my birthday is near Christmas. :D 

So I am kind of half and half on this, one part is like oh god more FHM style exploitation and is this really still where women are in movies in 2008 and the second half is like wow. I can't wait to see this! And christmas is still far away :(

Before I read the plot it did come across as very thelma and louise'ish just with better and by better I mean tighter outfits but this actually looks like a lot of fun,

According to IMDB.com, the title of this trailer is "So Long and Thanks for the Mammeries" (I'm not making it up) and also one of the three stars is an Erin Cummings (not making that up either) whose bio includes several episodes of Dante's Cove. Calling Ms Bennett, Ms J Bennett! Any inside scoops, Jill?

I just can't work out which one Erin Cummings is in the trailer, though.

*sigh*

I guess I'll just have to watch it again.

Love Pussy xx

I'm so there...

Mission to accomplish before Christmas: Get new friends who would watch this without any blackmailing involved.

"Even in death Gabrielle, I will never leave you"- Xena

or does the little person look a little like the old Briteny Spears that the world fell in love with?! :P

you can all bash me for the comment above.

exploitation to women's rights in media or not, i'm still watching this. and i will confess it is all about the breasts, eye candy for me.

I'll just echo everyone else: That was awesome. And hot. 

Very hot.

Ok people i just had to watch that in silence as everyone else in my house is asleep, so for the sake of sanity i feel i must vent here:

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!

Ok i feel better now. I love Christmas. And women. And boobies.
