2 great leads, I'm down.

Here is the trailer....

[anamericangod]

This looks so good.

[pshh]

this looks great, i love the title.

the on screen chemistry looks amazing

[Smash Adams]

I didn't love the trailer but I love them, and want them together in real life- fuck Ben Gibbard

[jwelborn]

They are both very talented especially Levitt, he is very reliable on the films he chooses. Even in Manic they were wonderful together.

[chasingsafety]

agreed, they made manic. wish there was more of them

and now they are in this, cant wait

good luck on that

[chasingsafety]

good luck on that

yea, ive thought about that lately, and have based my going around on it, and turns out. its like a needle in a haystack. because you learn that someone that looks like her is kinda hard to find, and ive been in 3 diff states over the past month. very hard to find

Wow, A+?

[chasingsafety]

"In his film boy meets girl, boy falls in love with girl, but girl doesn’t exactly fall in love back. And it drives the boy mad, as it would any boy who fell in love with a girl as charming as Ms. Deschanel. It is hands down the most delightfully surprising film of this year’s festival so far, continually catching its audience off guard, effortlessly delivering the laughs and earning every ounce of its opening night standing ovation. Don’t be surprised if 500 Days of Summer does the same once it is unleashed on the rest of the world."


standing O, impressive

[SkyHeldUpByStar]

Well I guess we already have the hints of a Best Picture contender for next year.

Movie looks great, Deschanel looks great.

[*crying stars*]

I am going to like this movie.

[Ailite]

Marc Webb directed all the old MCR videos, guy is an amazing director. I can't wait to see this.

[HBdoubleJ]

This film looks great. I'm gonna try to catch it at Sundance this week.

orange- is zooey notice the spike with the engagement

green- 500 days of summer, notice the trailer hits and hugge spike

[Recovery Room]

This review (http://www.slashfilm.com/2009/01/18/sundance-movie-review-500-days-of-summer/) has me even more stoked.

The film was met with a standing ovation at the Eccles theater premiere. Standing-O’s have been happening less and less since I first started coming to the festival in 2004. But after the credits finished rolling up the screen of the Park City High School Auditorium, the 1,270 audience members in attendance were all on their feet, clapping their hands. And the reason why this film got such a great response is because it’s one of those films you instantly fall in love with. Like Juno, Little Miss Sunshine, or Slumdog Millionaire....

...500 Days of Summer is the first romantic comedy that everyone can relate to, because everyone has been through this type of relationship. I would like to think up some insanely createive near-hyperbole with adjatives like Wonderful, magical, charming, and somehow including the words must see. But I have yet to get any sleep at Sundance, and its now only day 4. So the best I can do is tell you that you will love this film. And I guess we’ll have to settle for that and the discussion of a new term for indie romcom for later.

/Film Rating: 9 out of 10

Cannot wait.

[MADSTA]

This looks so cute! Joseph Gordon-Levitt is adorable.

There are quite a few of these out there.

[3eb23]

I watched it at Sundance a couple of days ago. The movie was freaking great. They took a typical boy meets girl story and made it unique and more interesting than any romantic comedy that can currently come to mind. Hilariously funny. Most of you will absolutely love this movie.

[popdisaster00]

i have the script if anyone wants it.

it was simply wonderful

cant wait to see this
I would like it and could definitely some some scripts your way.

This movie looks fucking awesome.

[HBdoubleJ]

Loved this movie. I put my blog on here to use and wrote up a review. Let me know if you happen to read it.

[Roboman]

The trailer got kind of annoying, but there seems to be an over-abundance of Zooey in this movie, so I absolutely have to see it.

[jusscali]

So when is this due out?


Also, does anyone know the song in the main trailer first posted? It's fantastic.

Thanks guys

July 24th. The song is called Sweet Disposition, and is by a band called The Temper Tramps. They have an EP you can purchase on iTunes.

Thanks so much man,

...waits impatiently for a copy of the script

[jusscali]

Do they have a myspace page or somewhere on the web that I can check them out?

[pinklipgloss]

heheh that voice-over guy sounds like a bad morgan freeman impersonator.

[chokeychicken]

saw this at sundance and loved it. so a great yet untraditional romantic comedy. the two leads were dazzling.

[jusscali]

That song is awesome...

Can't wait for the script, I hope the lapses/breaks in time are discernible in it

[Ailite]

The script is fantastic

[jusscali]

Yeah, just finished the script and I absolutely adored it. The ending is PERFECT. I can really see this becoming one of my favorite little films in a while.

P.S. Now I HATE Zooey lol

[HBdoubleJ]

Joseph Gordon-Levitt did a Q & A at the screening I attended. One of the highlights being that the director Marc Webb had a specific color palette for the film. That color being blue, and the inspiration of that being Zooey's eyes. I thought that was pretty neat. If Webb's work here is an any indication of his future, he should be one to watch after.

[pshh]

I need that poster.

Yes, I don't think they said "500 Days of Summer" enough in the trailer.

[itsmesean0630]

Oh my god, the new trailer is amazing. That whole thing with JGL being impressed by Zooey liking the Smiths kills me.

[stayillogical]

This is my most anticipated of the year. I feel so silly because I already love it and I haven't seen it. I just know, haha. Might end up being my movie of the year. There's hasn't been a great romantic comedy in a long time! It's such a dead genre right now.

[nickstetina]

I'm a sucker for these kinds of movies. Can't wait.

[Ailite]

Come Oscar season 2009 if this isn't an absolute lock for Best Original Screenplay the Oscars will lose all relevance to me. This is an absolutely amazing story, one where certain parts are painful to read because they seem to be taken out of my life and one where certain parts- the ending- make me get a knot in my throat and a few tears in my eyes because of how real it is and how beautiful it is.

Inglorious Basterds is now my second most anticipated movie of 2009, 500 Days of Summer is sitting pretty at number one. This is one of the most perfecty put together stories I've ever read.

its not going to get nominated for best SP man, it's a great story, true. but i dont think it's what the academy looks for, how often does a straight up "story of love" win the oscars..

If Juno can win an Oscar, well...

And to my knowledge, this isn't a straight up love story.

Seriously if Juno can fucking win an Oscar this should have no trouble. I think its possible. This is by far the best written script I've ever read.

Agreed. The story development, the flow; I can't wait to see it on screen.

P.S. You were right about it being a quick read. Finished it really fast, haha.

[stayillogical]

We're not even halfway through the year yet. Ever heard of the General forum running gag "AOTY"?

Considering Jacob reads a lot of scripts of movies coming out in the year, I hardly think this is similar to, "Album of the year and I haven't even heard it yet!"

We know for sure what's coming out, we know about directors, screenwriters, and actors tendencies, we know the plot synopsises, etc. So I think every year, it's easy to estimate what the biggest films and oscar contenders are going to be. This could very easily be an original screenplay contender, especially considering the reviews.

I doubt he's read every script that should be in contention by the end of the year. And if he has, I'm surprised that scripts for every film of 2009 are available in April.

If I say an album I haven't heard yet is the best album of the year I'm an idiot
If I've heard it and love and say it I might be wrong

If I say a script that had a huge emotional impact on me thanks to how well written and personal it was to me that stars two of my favorite actors and an extremely talented director is the most satisfying script I've ever read after I've actually read it, I think thats pretty fair.

[stayillogical]

Well, if it's better written than Inglorious Bastards (how many years has Tarantino been working on this?), then I'm sold. It has Little Miss Sunshine/Juno/Slumdog Millionaire buzz all over it. Plus, an Annie Hall feel to it, call me crazy because I haven't even read the script but I'm also shooting for Best Original Screenplay. There hasn't been a good romance like this, since... well, I don't know.

Edit: Haha, well I'm an idiot. But these are my expectations and that's what I'm hoping for. I'll know next week! :celebrate:

I'm just saying you sometimes make pretty bold statements that I can't help but roll my eyes at. For example, I think you called Benjamin Button one of the best films ever made on the same day you saw it for the first time. You may stand by that sentiment twenty years from now, but you should probably let material sink in for a while before you hand out such praise or unflinching ultimatums ("the Oscars will lose all relevance to me").

Haha, not even going to try to argue with you here, you're right. I know when I'm beat. Sometimes I have a tendency to do just what you said, judge something way to fast without really allowing it to sink in.

Still think that about Benajmin Button though, and I really do think this script is Oscar worthy wihout a doubt

I wasn't trying to knock you down with my comments, but to make you a better critic and a stronger voice in the Entertainment forum. I don't want members to overlook your opinion because you were too quick to judge this movie or jumped the gun on attacking the Academy Awards in regards to that movie. I'm basically being a precision of language prick by saying it's cool to think a great script is Oscar worthy, but already taking an adversarial approach to next year's Oscars is going too far.

Its much better to put it this way:

I think this script is fully deserving of Best Original Screenplay consideratio

[stayillogical]

I'd like the script now that I've seen the movie. It should hold me over until I can see it again. Can't wait.

[stayillogical]

Wait a second... there's a scene from the trailer that I didn't catch in the movie. Can someone else who has seen it tell me if I just missed it? When he sees a bus full of Zooeys

There was a moment where I semi-yelled at my friend next to me and might have missed it then. He dared to say, "The main girl looks like Katy Perry." My response, "NO, KATY PERRY LOOKS LIKE HER," aggressive hand motions and all.

The songs used in the film and brief comments by the director on why if anyone is interested. Damn, this is actually frustrating being early because I'm dying to talk about it with all of you. And my friends that I watched it with, well.... not to sound elitist, but I don't think they could fully appreciate it. One's favorite movie being Transporter and the other a huge POTC fan.

[Gaugzilla]

Marc Webb directed all the old MCR videos, guy is an amazing director. I can't wait to see this.

In the script it was when Tom was going through the period of being miserable over Summer. He gets kicked off a bus and when he got on it the bus was full of Zooey's.

How perfect is Go Ask Your Dad at the end?

[eMart]

Just watched this last night, and although the movie feels a little uneven, I liked it.
What's the release date for this?
July 17th.

[Undue Noise]

Incredibly jealous of people who have already seen this, but it's good to hear positive reviews already. Doesn't come out until September 4th here in England, so I'm in for a long wait.

I was about to start a thread for this. Glad I didn't. This movie looks so damn good! Two great leads.

i'm so mad they skipped SF for the free screenings.

I grabbed a free poster last night! So excited for this to finally hit theaters. There's also a huge cardboard display at the entrance, I hope the movie becomes a huge hit. JGL needs to blow up.

[Smash Adams]

JGL needs to blow up.
I'd say he's already a pretty big movie star and has name recognition, I get the feeling he's a pretty private person and wouldn't want to make the move from B-list to A-list or whatever he may be

We have the same display, I marched to the office and told my manager that I absolutely must have it after the movie comes and goes.

[stayillogical]

I'd say he's already a pretty big movie star and has name recognition, I get the feeling he's a pretty private person and wouldn't want to make the move from B-list to A-list or whatever he may be

He's big on the indie scene, but I mean, blow up as in getting Oscar worthy roles. I look at him as a younger Edward Norton.

[*crying stars*]

I'd say he's already a pretty big movie star and has name recognition, I get the feeling he's a pretty private person and wouldn't want to make the move from B-list to A-list or whatever he may be

I feel like he's really picky with the scripts that he reads, so I completely agree with this.

He was in Angels in the Outfield and 10 Things I Hate About You!
Both him and Norton are awesome though, and sexy

I'm hoping no one at my theater wants it. I've talked to the manager enough so I think he knows me. Haha, I'm asking for it when the time comes.

I asked my friend who works at a movie theater to give me the display for this movie, since she gave my other friend a huge cardboard cutout of James McAvoy before.

At first I wasn't sure if I wanted to read the entire script because I felt it might ruin the movie when I actually see it. But after reading it, even the ending make me more excited to see this film.
Plus, I wonder what changes were made when actually making the movie.

I'm a bit miffed that the best scene of the film is up on /film. Granted it's only a piece of it, but damn, the entire sequence is so beautiful. Should have let it be.

[FOBcareemo]

My screening was last night. SO FUCKING GOOD. JGL is an great, great actor, and Zooey Deschanel is the perfect stand in for "that girl" that we've all had.

[stayillogical]

I have such a huge crush on JGL's character in this. I hope everyone loves it when it finally comes out.

[MikeTheManR]

Finally caught a screening of this in Georgetown tonight, and had one of the best cupcakes I've ever had in my life. Loved the movie. Incredible soundtrack, JGL and Zooey Deschanel are great together. It's one of the best relationship movies I've seen in recent years. It reminded me of Annie Hall, but less depressing. I have passes to see it again in Baltimore in a couple weeks, I can't wait to see if I enjoy it as much with repeat viewings.

That was probably a poor choice of words. Annie Hall is one of my favorite movies of all time, and overall, Annie Hall and 500 Days are very similar, both thematically and in the way their stories are structured. I just found 500 Days to be a little more upbeat than Annie Hall. I'm not really sure how else to explain it without giving too much away, but they're both fantastic movies.

JoBlo review:



REVIEW: God bless this film for showing the other side of love. The not-so-rosy side of relationships. For showing that men don’t always dictate the pace. Men don’t always screw over women, men aren’t simply clamoring to get laid. That’s right, despite what Hollywood seems to think, some of us men suffer too damnit, we got feelings too. That’s not to say that 500 Days of Summer is some whiny, emo, girl-power marathon- it’s not, at all. It’s just a realistic, witty, and most importantly extremely entertaining piece of filmmaking. It’s the “Rom-com rebuttal”. Sure, it’s still a comedy, and yes, at times it can be very romantic, but it sure ain’t sweet, and this baby ain’t even remotely formulaic. As the title suggests, we follow the 500 days that Tom Hansen has Summer in his life. We don’t however follow this story in order. We jump from day 249 to day 1, to day 488, to day 44, etc. It can get a bit disorienting and tiresome at times, but it works better than your typical point A to point B narrative. This and several other elements of the film are very evocative of another of my favorites that rebel against the genre, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. In both films we get a sensitive male lead and an elusive, cold female who serves as the object of the male’s every desire and the subject of their greatest fears. It’s a bold tactic in that romantic comedies (http://joblo.com/index2.php#) are typically for the female audience, with characters they can sympathize with. 500 Days of Summer is decidedly told from the male’s perspective (though it appeals to both sexes), so here’s hoping a male audience can get over their preconceptions and give this film a go.



Gordon-Leavitt is great as always, playing an everyman who, God bless him, just wants to meet (http://joblo.com/index2.php#) the right girl and settle down. While he’s sure Summer is that girl, she’s not so sure he’s the right guy, or that there’s even such thing. Throughout their tumultuous relationship, the screenwriters built in some moments of rare realism, like that short, cryptic email (http://joblo.com/index2.php#) us guys dread, the inevitable “friends” talk, the possible rekindling of romance, etc. It’s hard to describe without giving too much away, but I’d bet good money that anyone who sees this film will find at least one or two instances where they say “Wow, yeah, I can relate to that.”
That isn’t to say this film is one long break-up or downer. Not even close! It’s a comedy after all, and there are many happy times to be had by the couple. Music video helmer Marc Webb directed this thing with great visual flair, providing everything from animation (http://joblo.com/index2.php#) to a fantastic dance number that is easily one of the film’s great moments. Drawing on both classic 80’s hits and current hipster tunes, this film’s soundtrack is one that’ll probably be a big seller as well, and keeps the film upbeat.
Other than the somewhat disorienting narrative, there are a few other small hang-ups I had with this film. Despite smashing dozens of stereotypes, the pic does unfortunately succumb to several which standout all the more. These include the horny, crude, never-gets-laid best friend, and the for-some-reason-20-years-more-mature-than-she-should be younger sister. Also, since the film wants to appeal to mass audiences as much as possible, it shies away from too many truly emotional moments, and I wish there were a few more of those, but on the whole, this thing still packs way more emotional punch than 99% of the rom-coms out there today.
In fact, I don’t want to classify 500 Days as a rom-com at all. I can’t call it a tragicomedy either though, or a drama. The film really is unclassifiable, and that in my mind is the mark of something truly original.
RATING: 8.5/10

[Ailite]

I went crazy writing this and its a bit too long, forgive me. No spoilers at all. Please go see this movie and have a great time doing it.

I am beside myself with happiness that this movie exists. It almost seems to good to be true. It is wonderful. There's no other way to put it. I went in there- a packed theatre in Philadelphia full of extremely nice people, some cinephiles like myself and an abundance of pretty girls- with impossibly high expectations. Some would say that I wrongly put this film on an absurdly high pedestal of anticipation. I have hyped it up constantly and will continue to do so for the next few weeks for a very good reason: it deserves it. It shattered my expectations. It was better than I thought it could be, and I was expecting it to be damn good.

My love for this film is partly rooted in how much I can relate to the story. I got out a two year relationship that took me a long time to get over once I actually got over it, and it has some very lasting ramifications on my life. Some of the similarites between that relationship and the one Summer and Tom share are uncanny, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who will feel this way. Summer is a girl that every guy loves. She's absolutely perfect and yet she will break Tom's (your) heart by telling you that its not serious, that she doesn't want a boyfriend. Tom is a guy every girl knows. I think many males- myself, certainly- will see a lot of themselves in him. His misery and joy are and feelings throughout the film are so perfectly done and familar that the film has an aspect of reality that very few ever attain, and it makes it seem easy. We feel his frustration and happiness. The entire film is like this- the little actions and conversations between characters, the way they talk and interact is so perfect that it seems like it could be scenes out of any relationship. The film suceeds so much because its real. Its painful almost painful at many points, how close to reality it comes. It will give you an exterme case of nostalgia, no doubt.

With the personal effects out of the way, onto to the other aspects of the film. Joseph Gordon Levitt and Zooey Deschanel, who is in my opnion the most beautiful woman alive, give spectacular performances. Their chemistry could not be better. Their relationship is so tender and believable that it makes the events we see hit home even more. They're both emotional and dramatic, and hilarious. The whole movie has plenty of laughs, and plenty of tear jerker moments too. Marc Webb has a nice, long career ahead of him. If I can ever make a movie half as good as this I'll be able to die happy. The man has done an incredible job. Visually the film looks like it feels. Its bursting with color, a lot of that color light blue, as he went by a color pallette of Zooey's eyes- light blue. The pacing, the mood are all perfect. The film is just full of energy, from the excellent music to grea use of animation to fantasy sequences. A few homages to old classics are some of the funniest parts of the movie. So many parts just bring a huge smile to your face and just make you giddy with joy at how fun it is, a feeling that stayed with me long after I left the theatre.

There are three things about this film that stand out above everything else. 1- the soundtrack. It makes the film what it is. The music fits so well that it just seems natural, it adds so much to the film.
2- The reality of the story. This film is so strikingly real and tender that it will no doubt hit you on a personal level and make you think about past loves, future loves. Its left me thinking of a lot of things and not in a bad way at all. Like a really good song, it packs a huge punch of emotion.
3- The story. This is one of the most perfectly put together stories ever told. Jumping back and forth across the 500 days keeps us on our toes- we see the good, the bad, the before, the during, the after- it makes the narrative exciting and delightful. And the ending. Oh man the ending. It gave me chills. A scene near the end, a big climactic scene between the two main characters, had myself and half the theatre in tears. Its so beautifully written and executed- and then we get to the ending. The film ends with a happy, sad, and realstic ending that will gauge tons of reaction and feelings at once. I laughed, in sheer joy and amazement at how perfect it is how fitting the last line is. The ending of the film is by far the best part.

I cannot say enough good things about this movie. I would like to see in the best picture race come January, however unlikely that may be. It just hit me so hard. It made me feel wonderful, and made me feel nostalgic and thoughtful. It made me miss my past relationship and want to find a pretty girl and give her everything she ever wanted. This is a film that I will think about for months to come. The day I can buy it on DVD and watch it everyday for weeks will be one of the happiest of my life. If you want to feel some emotion, to get the feelings that love and life give you, all the sadness and above all, the happiness, see this movie.

[fenderrock89]

Really anticipating this movie.

[Ailite]

A small warning to everyone- do not wikipedia Minka Kelly or look at her filmography on any other site. Looking at the nature of her role in the film will ruin a huge part of the story and frankly its to good to spoil.

[stayillogical]

A small warning to everyone- do not

Change this to looking at any casting related articles instead, just mentioning so and so's name kind of ruins the surprise. That person doesn't even have a name on IMDB.

Except the sites not working for me right now, it refuses to open.

Probably not, I saw it two weeks ago. But kudos to you for choosing CinemaWorld. I love the huge cardboard display they have of (500) Days Of Summer. I'm definitely going on Friday to see it again, it's even better than Away We Go.

Will definitely watch this again when it's released to the general public. So good. Oh Tom/Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

how have people already seen this?

I got really lucky and saw it in April at a film festival. It's one of those movies you fall in love with and want to watch it again immediately. So the wait has been worse, you see.

[I am Mick]

I have not seen Manic. I assume it is worth seeing?


It's a really rough shot indie, pretty intense. Pretty hard to watch at times. About kids in a mental institution. I'd say check it out, but yeah...it's just a tough movie to sit through haha

Just got this along with Mysterious Skin can't wait to watch.

Sweet, found a screening on the 14th.

[darkpelican]

Theres a screening near me on the 14th. It says its first come first serve. How busy have the screenings been? Would I have to get their quite early to be guaranteed a seat?

Sorry it just sold out

also I can't believe you guys, the best JGL role by far was Cameron, though he wasn't as cool as Cameron Frye

Now this was tough to watch.

Yeah, looking forward to it.

Probably not, I saw it two weeks ago. But kudos to you for choosing CinemaWorld. I love the huge cardboard display they have of (500) Days Of Summer. I'm definitely going on Friday to see it again, it's even better than Away We Go.

oh. how did u c it already

Ivy Film Festival dude. Brown does it every year. Special screenings at the Avon. I missed my chance to meet Jack Nicholson too.

I was kidding, I don't know when I saw transformers people were on line for 2 hours and I got there half an hour beforehand and barely got a decent seat, I'd say an hour would probably be okay

haha sorry didn't detect that. I'd think that 500 days of summer might not have as big a crowd, especialy at a screening this close to the release date.

I haven't seen it...but I'm a big JGL fan so I think I'll check it out

Manic is kiddie stuff compared to Mysterious Skin. I really didn't like the latter much but MS was intense. I don't think I could bare to watch it again.

I enjoyed it. I liked the book, and the movie did a great job of capturing the spirit of the book, however terrifying it may be. I'll definitely have to watch Manic sometime.

You should give your ticket to your friend who's in love with her, you hate her you don't get to see her first

[NickLopez]

Probably seeing this on Tuesday. This is probably a very stupid question, but for the life of me I cannot figure it out--are these screenings that were advertised earlier in the thread free? It doesn't say anything about it being free anywhere, but typically early screenings are free, right?

They should be free.
