Apparently Jerry Bruckheimer doesn't find me funny
Apparently, Jerry Bruckheimer has now read my list: "Guide to Determine If You're in a Jerry Bruckheimer Movie." Some CNN writer - Todd Leopold, to be exact - leads his profile of the mega producer by handing him a copy and waiting for a reaction. This is highly amusing.
Yes, Jerry, I imdbed your name before writing the piece. Sorry it didn't make you laugh. If it makes you feel any better, that list was written out of (mostly) pure love. For serious: Days of Thunder, The Rock and both Bad Boys films are bone-crunching testosterone warheads. and I mean that in as awesome and gleefully juvenile a way as it sounds.ATLANTA, Georgia (CNN) -- Jerry Bruckheimer does not laugh.
Handed a "Guide to Determine If You're in a Jerry Bruckheimer Movie" -- a gently mocking list that appeared in the Internet journal McSweeney's ("7. You are a cop or scientist, but could be a model"; "17. Everything that has not yet exploded explodes") -- the producer's face clouds. He peruses the list as if it contained family secrets. Only when he finishes does he suddenly brighten.
"Hey, it's all fun," he says, smiling, sitting at a table in an Atlanta hotel room during the December press tour for his new film, "Glory Road." "As long as they spell my name right, it's fine."
Pearl Harbor sucked though. But that's not exactly news.
