Trailer For Beastie Boys’ “Awesome: I Fuckin’ Shot That”
A while back the Beastie Boys had a cool idea… what if we took a bunch of Hi-8 cameras and gave them to some random fans and asked them to record one of our concerts from their point of view? In October 2004, that’s exactly what they did, and the end result is a movie called Awesome: I Fuckin’ Shot That. It premiered at Sundance last month, and soon will have a special one-night screening across the U.S. on March 23rd. The DVD release is planned for sometime in the summer. MTV Overdrive currently has a trailer for the movie, and while it doesn’t give us much of an idea of what to expect from this unique film, it does a nice job of poking fun at those inane “In A World…” voice overs. Check out the film’s official site at www.awesomeishotthat.com, and also check out a live version of “Brass Monkey” via MTV as well.

the beastie boys should just disappear, they have a couple of cool songs but even those songs are tiresome. retire!

Could it be…? Another celebrity poster on Film Junk??
In the event that this really was the King Adrock googling himself, I just want to say that I’m still waiting for the Beastie Boys feature film that was rumoured to be in the works many eons ago. The Beasties have some of the best music videos of all time, it’s time to put some of that creativity onto the big screen.
(Also worth noting: Chopper talks a big game but we both know he’ll be in line to buy the next Beastie Boys album the day it is released.)
