MMJ in the new Elizabethtown Movie

[EC]

Wow.  Thanks for sharing that.  :)

[corey]

Thanks for sharing the photos. They look like they're having fun.

(I got a DVD of Wilco on HBO's Reverb the other day. Good stuff)

Was that in Cave Hill Cemetery?  Hopefully they show Colonel Sanders Headstone.  I wonder if that is where they play "Free Bird"?  

[MMJ_fanatic]

[thebigbang]

Sal, Those are fantastic photos.  Almost missed 'em with the board heating up and the NCAA thingy going on.

Yep. That is correct.

Any truth to Two Tone and Kirsten hooking up?

Not true, she loves me and only me.
And cobwebs.

Wow, I really don't take celebrity gossip too seriously. That was just a joke comment, which I thought might be obvious, but obviously was not.

I've heard no rumors and have no facts. Which should make me an authority.

Just have to love Tommy's specs. :)

Lots of reaction to the movie trailer and new poster release linked below, with lots of folks jazzed about the Jacket being movie stars (oh, and that Dunst person too):

Cameron Crowe interview:

http://www.mtv.com/shared/movies/interviews/c/crowe_cameron_qa_050624/

He mentions a new My Morning Jacket song that will be in the movie called "Where To Begin"

[corey]

Nice!
It's not listed as being on "Z".
So there's 11 new songs that we'll have for sure, plus whatever they release as B-sides!

[yieldgirl]

I saw the them in the clip yesterday.  I can't wait for this movie to come out.

Anyone notice the Pearl Jam posters  :)

From the 'Heart' website:

the last photo is outside of a screening that Cameron and Jim did of Elisabethtown(only about 20 minutes of the film)  for a few people from CIMS)  pictured left to right are... Don Van Cleave(CIMS) Jill Wheeler(CIMS) Scott Register(CIMS)Jim James (My Morning Jacket)Andrea Paschal(CIMS)Melanie Nipper(CIMS) Jim Fahy(CIMS) Cameron, Nancy.- This was a photo from the presentation Cameron and Jim did for the group @ the Northwest Film Forum for his new movie Elizabethtown.

Jim James in the back with curly hair and beard, had just done an awesome solo acoustic set in the theater after the screening. He is the lead singer of the Kentucky based band My Morning Jacket who's songs show up in the movie. Jim and some of his band mates are also members of the fictitious Etown rock band RUCKUS who play a small part in the movie as well...a very funny small part.

They're screening the movie these days and I've linked two reviews below.  Freebird does appear to be the MMJ performance.

After reading the reviews and having watched the internet preview with the Elton John song and the new trailer with the Tom Petty song, I have to say I am lowering my expectations for this film.

The internet preview featured MMJ in several scenes which was great, but if you pay attention to the movie plot and scenes revealed in the rest of it and the teaser, Elizabethtown may not be as entertaining as it seemed on paper.  Keeping my fingers crossed, but I get the feeling that the MMJ bit may be the only part that thrills me, along with any MMJ music that makes the soundtrack.

i went to see war of the worlds with my parents last night and we saw the trailer for Elizabethtown.  So i lean over and tell my dad that my favorite band is gonna be in the movie and stuff and he goes, "weird, i got the first speeding ticket of my life in Elizabethtown, KY."

[realdeal]

yeah, the movie looks like crap to me. but im still going to see it for the freebird cover and the funeral scene and because some of it was shot is lewisville.
