[img]http://i.imgur.com/E1EZKOD.png[/img] [quote='IndieWire']Stop me if you've heard this one before: So there's this guy (Paul Dano) who is stranded on a deserted island and is about to kill himself, but when he discovers [B][I][U]a corpse (Daniel Radcliffe) washed ashore that emits explosive farts, he decides to use the body as a jet ski to bring him back to the mainland.[/U][/I][/B] Oh, you haven't heard that one before? Well, directors Daniel Scheinert and Daniel Kwan's new film "Swiss Army Man" tells this story with gusto and has divided critics when it premiered on Friday.

Honestly, it's probably worth watching just to see what the fuck is going to happen, regardless of overall quality
If I remember correctly, this movie also has a running joke about how the body has a constantly erect penis caused by rigor mortis.

i like how he's not afraid to star in movies with odd premises like this. i have a thing for movies that embrace their fictional storytelling ability. last one i saw him in was "horns", and that ended up with him growing horns the entire movie and then [sp]turning into fucking satan[/sp]

How explosive are these farts? Wouldn't it be easier just to break off his arm and use it as a paddle?
[QUOTE=Zenreon117;49638536]How explosive are these farts? Wouldn't it be easier just to break off his arm and use it as a paddle?[/QUOTE] this is one of those questions that drives people to actually watch the movie
I'm hyped as fuck for this movie.
I can't wait
I mean, I get that all the gas in a dead human body is due to rotting and decaying innards and all that, but can there really be that much to buoy a man further than he could swim? Was the ending of Titanic total shit? What is going on here?!

The premise for this is just like that "Nicolas Cage's Agent" video. [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eExfV_xKaiM[/media]
Top Stoner Movie 2016. Called it.
Anyone who say's they're not excited about this movie is a damn liar. We have the next Citizen Kane right here.
I am really curious about this film because the concept is such an odd one to get even past the stage of funding.
I'm game. There is no way this movie can be bad, intentionally or otherwise.

That being said, he's in a show on netlfix called " A Young Doctor's Notebook" and it is very strange because it's whimsical and comedic but it has some of the most sickening gore I have ever seen and it explores drug addiction in a way where you can see exactly how and why someone would get addicted and be controlled by addiction

I actually listened to an interview with Daniel Radcliffe on the Nerdist and he talks about how besides making himself the richest boy alive, he's mostly happy that he did Harry Potter because it means he can act in the craziest, and weirdest movies he wants to do.
