OT Cocaine Bear

Post by D-train » Wed Mar 10, 2021 12:39 pm

I thought this was some early April Fools joke but apparently its real. :lol:
Elizabeth Banks to direct bear-centric thriller COCAINE BEAR for Universal.

The film is based on true events from 1985; a 175-pound bear accidentally consumed over 70 ponds of cocaine that was dropped it from a plane by a smuggler.

The exact details of the film are under wraps.

Could you guys tell me if I am out of Twitter time out yet. You should see the Cartoon bear gif I posted if so. 27 people liked it so thinking my "suspension" might be up?

More mad cap Hi Jinx. How much do you think each actor got paid for this commercial? My guess is each got about $5-10k?

Do you think it varied or they all go the same amount?

Everyone in that commercial is dead, even Eddie Haskell who was shot several times as a LAPD officer. Just died 10 months ago.
