if you didn’t know this already, Richard Linklater is the shit. THE SHIT. i’ll save you from having to imdb him. Tape, A Scanner Darkly, SubUrbia, Slacker, Dazed and Confused, and fucking Waking Life. (btw, if you have not seen Waking Life, please leave my fucking internet. ur not welcome here.) so anyway, i just heard about his new/old project Boyhood. and holy shit. that’s fucking nuts. wait, you don’t know what i’m talking about because you didn’t click on the link. lazy fucks. Boyhood is about a kid growing up being raised by his divorced parents, beginning when he is about 6 and ending around the time he graduates highschool. but here’s the kicker, you incredulous ass holes, the movie is being shot over 12 years as the main character actually grows up! filming began in 2001 and will be completed in 2013. i am fairly certain this has NEVER been done outside of a documentary. unfortunately, the best article i could find about this was on fucking mtv’s website (if they said kubrik one more time, i would’ve fucking hit myself in the balls just to relieve the pain). i just found out about this, so i’m still processing how fucking crazy this idea is. i’ll let you know if i think of anything interesting to say about it. (don’t hold your breath.)
