Magic Mike !!! the movie

[brettnyc]

Is it just me, or is anyone else anticipating the release of Magic Mike, the male stripper drama from Stephen Soderbergh featuring Channing Tatum, Matthew McConaughey, Joe Manganiello (whose character is called Big Dick Richie), Matt Bomer, and Alex Pettyfer ? The advertisement for the film in which the guys are shown dancing to the song Move like Jagger looks to be a HOT ticket...maybe not as hot as watching the hunks perform live at Broadway Bares last week, but I'll take all the celluloid beefcake I can get !

It's not just you, Brett ...

But is there going to be a 3D version? IMAX??

[Phil_musc]

Damn, now that would be something to see at the IMAX theater in the Franklin Institute. Instead of those boring old lunar landings and shots of volcanoes, we could see strippers 4 stories tall with 10 foot cocks. (are you there yet, JJ?).

 

And a 3D version - I'm reaching for my special glasses now.

Hang on...Playbill.com announed today that the movie is being adapted for Broadway!

can't decide on the midnight showing tonight or wait until around lunch time tomorrow. for a film that only cost between 5 & 7 mil to make it won't take much to be a hit

[JackTwist]

Looking forward to it too, if only for the eye candy...and Mostly for mighty fine Matt Bohmer.

Exactly! After all the Bombardment of PR on this project it definitely should do well and even better with DVD Rentals etc. But Broadway Backers?

 

I don't think there's enuff disposable Income around for that Gamble? Nor 6 Names who other than "Hugh Jackman" who would care to Strip 6 days a week

Mixed reviews are In.... Seems to be either a Love or Hate film....

[josephga]

I'm kinda bored already with all the interviews about them hating to wax and manscape their privates. And the hetero backstory doesnt really interest me, so basically I could stay home, watch porn, see some COCK, and save $12..... But i WILL see it at some point. One local reviewer gave the movie 3.5 stars and called it Brilliant... Guess he took the Bath salts with him when he saw it ????

[josephga]

if you looking for cock then id suggest not seeing it. I hear there's none shown

I have to see it, just to be relevant... I am sure it will come yup in conversation at all those elegant Gay dinner parties I attend here in the city, and this way I will be able to discuss it with some first hand experience.

Saw Joe Manganiello on Andy Cohen's Bravo show (can't remember the name) charming and very tall guy. He taught the audience how to do some stripper moves. I guess he is on True Blood, which I do not watch.

Completely out-of-touch statement of the week, brought to you by Boxofficemojo.com:

 

"Magic Mike should definitely give Ted a run for its money, though, even if its audience is essentially limited to older women."

 

I guess the millions of gay men who plan to turn this into "Sex & The Gay City" are now older women.

[Michael Wayne]

I like the whole mentor/apprentice angle of it since I am going through that now in the business. Plus Tatum was a real life stripper in Tampa so he is kind of playing himself. MAGIC MIKEY IN TAMPA @ http://www.rentboy.com/mikey9nola1

speaking for us Older GAY women.....I concur....

The reviewer from this site seemed to like it a lot. BTW, what is "Ted"?

[+ WilliamM]

Rotten Tomatoes gives the film a 82%. But, it gets even better when you go to just the "top critics"...every top critic gives Magic Mike a good review.

[+ Lucky]

And isn't that surprising? It makes me look forward to seeing it.

By far, Alex Petyfer is the most "ripped"....
