The Number 23

I'm so hyped for this. Very intriguing. Not only that, but I can sort of relate to the number 23. I was born on October 23rd, my mom was born on June 23rd, my grandmother September 23rd, and my grandmother the 23rd of February. Creeepy.

Sounds like a cross between "the numbers" storyline in Lost, the movie Stranger Than Fiction and the schizophrenia of the lead character in Me, Myself and Irene (also played by Jim Carrey); only this time it's played for scares instead of laughs.

Should be hit or miss.

My father was also born on October 23rd D:

Can't wait to see this movie... I'm looking forward to see Jim Carrey performing in this movie. And since I loved Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, I won't mind the fade of his eccentricity.

[Qonfused]

Looks like Pi, only directed by Joel Schumacher and starring Jim Carrey.

I WASN'T born on 24th of anything... so i guess i must buy it

 

[Bad^Hat]

I was born on the 28th of October. 2 + 3 is 5, and 28 - 5 is 23 :O

That reminds me of my chemistry teacher's dad or uncle or something- he wouldn't get out of bed unless the time on the clock to be mathematically manipulated to equal 15 or something like that. Like, 7:26, 7+2+6 is 15. I don't remember the exact number, but there you go.

Joel Schumacher.....? Ha.

 

[Qonfused]

Joel Schumacher.....? Ha.

Joel Schumacher has directed a lot of original and well-done movies.

Joel Schumacher has directed a lot of original and well-done movies.

Falling Down is the only good movie that comes to mind. Looking at his filmography, yeah, he has directed some okay movies.

I watched the trailer at a friend's house. It was hilarious because the rest of the evening we spent making absurd connections to 23 while playing Warhammer. (My Dire Avengers shoot at that Guard unit...you know they can fire 32 shots a turn right...pretty badass, no...wait a minute...
OH MY GOD...32 backwards is...23! Ahhh!!!)

Convo from last night with friend:

x = 23rd letter in alphabet
x turned on side = railway crossing!!!
letter numbers of r a i l w a y = 89
# of letters in michael jordans name = 13
89 + 13 = 102
michael jordans jersey = 23
michael jordan left the chicago bulls in 98
98 x 23 = 2254
102 x 23 = 2346
2346 - 2254 = 92
92 / 23 = 4
= teh 4 horseppl of the apocalypses!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, it was late.

I liked the premise, but Jim Carey?

 

[Shamrock]

It is 10:13 as I read this thread. 10 + 13 = 23!

H@X!

On a more serious note, I saw this trailer a couple weeks ago, and I must say Jim Carey looks to be a good choice. I am sick of seeing actors that perform nothing but the classic, "In a world where war is going on, a generic action movie star tries to save the world!"
I <3 Mr. Carey.

 

[operative x]

right now it is 8:08. 8 x 2 = 32 that reversed is 23.

You might want to check your math on that one.
