Ha! This one has to sting. New York Post:
The author of a best seller about vicious Mafia hit man Richard Kuklinski has pulled the plug on a deal with Hollywood producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura, who had optioned the rights, because he says he couldn’t stomach the idea of Channing Tatum in the title role.
Ouch. MORE LIKE CHANZING TATUM, AM I RIGHT? (Lazy. Friday.) Still though, haha. Phil Carlo, the author, is a man who has dedicated his life to writing about some of the worst people in the world (I’m talking about the individual subjects he chooses, of course, I’m sure the Mafia is mostly made up of super nice people, please don’t put a car bomb on my bike!) and spends his entire day looking into the black soul of humanity, but when it comes to Channing Tatum in the title role of a shitty Lorenzo di Bonaventura (Transformers 2, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra) adaptation of his book, THAT is what he can’t stomach? Right. Blech!
In Mr. Carlo’s defense, it is true that Channing Tatum is not a very good actor.

































Unless there’s a mafioso dance number with poppin and lockin there’s really no need for this guy’s skill set.
First the director of Smoke Jumpers and now this?!
I read the script. Apparently the Ice Man has one last hit he has to complete: Frank Sinatra (played by Jamie Foxx)
That smile just screams “Vicious mafioso hitman”
This is a strange start to my morning, but…
Good for you, Mr. Kuklinski!
“Who the fuck are you?”
“I’m you’re worst nightmare bitch. I’m gonna dance on your fucking grave.”
“Oh yeah?”
“Yeah… and I’m also gonna dance around it… and also in my basement for a little while after dinner. So fuck on that asshole!”
richard kuklinski is the hitman that the book is about, not the author, and he’s been dead for three years

What’s your point?
Wow, way to read.
The new trolls here are phenomenally stupid. Between this and passerby, I fear for the future of trolling.
Ha! You fear me right you are to do so! You people who think things that are better that are not always fear those who think for themsevles and don’t follow the thoughts of others who say what TO think!
Dude, seriously – grab a grammar and style manual.
Or do something interesting like random caps or haikus.
Wait, that’s all lame.
just keep mis spelling shit and using run on sentences, we figure it out anyway.
AGREED. Passerby needs TO UPGRADE HER emotions and her GRAMMAR to adult STATUS. Learn to type LIKE A normal PERSON PLEASE!
Mis spelling hahahahaha.
Sorry. Too ironic. (Oh shit you didn’t do it on purpose did you?)
What time zone could you possibly live in that would allow you to be so drunk at this time of day?
In English, Baxter! You know I don’t speak Spanish.
DUH!
Mr. Cool Hat. Ha! Direct link to this.
Chanz might not look be Tony Soprano, but let’s be fair: he looks about one Sonic the hedgehog haircut and one solid session in the spraytan booth away from hangin’ with the Gotti clan.
“look be,” I know.
Anyhow, good to see Hollywood actors are finally heeding the word of Ron D.
he don’t need this. GI gonna open up BIG this weekend boyeeeeee. let the offers pour in
“hummers for all my whodies. even you, turtle.”
Bike? Don’t you mean Rascal?
jesus sorry people, i intended reply to napoleons comment…you guys really get excited easily
I understand, DUH. You were just trying to politely help Napoleon Complex. You didn’t deserve to be likened to Passerby. No one does, really. Allow me to offer by warmest sympathies. Go now, in peace.
In my defense, it DID say “Mr. Kuklinski”. Right?
Or am I still strung out? Goddamn.
No worries, friend. There’s really no way to know if this was your mistake, thanks to Gabe’s penchant for revisionist blogging. I was just defending the gentleman named “DUH” from the angry mob.
Fine work, good sir!
jesus, sorry people, i intended reply to napoleons comment…you guys really get excited easily
Whatever, guy. He was totally awesome in She’s the Man. I think I might go watch that on the DVD that I OWN right now.
He may have made awful dance movies that feel like a parody of dance movies of the past, but watching him parody a dance movie of the past! He’s actually funny! Maybe he should spend the rest of his career shadowing patrick swayze’s past.

Ugh, I hate this guy so much. When did we start letting gross wiggers become movie stars?
Did anyone see him on Jimmy Fallon? (Yeah I know, ugh, but the remote is so far away after Conan) He seemed to be very obviously pulling a cucumber and made sure to sit leaned far back in his chair, his legs spread wide open. Such a classy gentleman this Channing Tatum is.
Aww I feel bad for him. He is named Channing after all. He is like the male version of Meghan Fox.
