Is this a real movie???

unfortunately it is. :(

I thought the same thing.

I thought it was a joke. But according to Best Week Ever, it's not a fake movie..just an extremely strange one.


And I guess the drummer from The Roots is directing this movie? :P

But seriously..what a strange concept.

I don't even know if I'll go see it...

I thought it wasnt
this is like a joke movie

Voight is the godfather to the blonde girl in the movie. I don't recognize anyone else in the film, but what a truly strange film. So ... is this the turn hollywood is taking now? MST3K movies? Remember, we still have 'Snakes on a Plane' coming out this summer. Hell, both of those films are more interesting to me than anything else that's coming out.

It's very real. I walked through those sets. It was shot in Kelowna BC, Canada. They did a pretty good job on John V, you could barely recognize him. My kid was an extra in it and got a real pay cheque, so yes it's very real.

Ok,ok,ok this is what happened...

They were doing a workshop and typically dumb exercises, and the director/teacher/coach calls up his good friend John Voight to come by and do a master class.

So, they're doing their stuff before the master — the "Mirror" exercise, the "What if..." exercise, the "Waiting for Godot" exercise, the "Psycho Drama" exercise, various heavy breathing exercises, plus a few primal stage screams — and being the generous, reinforcing kind of guy he is, Voight says, "Hey, you kids are great! Why don't we find a location and turn this into a movie?" You know, the way Judy and Mickey say, "Hey Kids, let's find a barn and put on a show!"

What we have here, Folks, is real, but is it a movie or just an elaborate showcase of "budding talent," for which we are, as usual, the paying beta testers?

From his self-interview in Interview:

John Voight: Who is really playing the role of Dr. Crazx in the movie The Legend of Simon Conjurer? Is it you, or is it me?

Dr. Crazx: Let's let the audience figure that one out, shall we! Have a miserable day, Jon, if you can. For I feel something brewing in the theaters, and I'll be there when the movie opens..."

Sounds like Ocean's Twelve, a pure vanity piece, where we get to see acting types playing to each other.

I just saw this movie at a theatre in union sq. in new york. Two of the actors were in the theatre. They had flown in from la because it is only being released in new york.

The Director is the Star, Simon.......at least that is what I was told when they filmed it here. But ka sa ra, even the name changed from Sunrise to this one. But ya,he's a pretty nice guy! Talked to him, he was the man.
