Hey everyone, I found the next awesome movie. It’s called “Beer For My Horses,” which is apparently the name of a Toby Keith song. Anyway, Variety describes the movie this way:
The title comes from Keith’s hit single, also features Rodney Carrington (also co-writer), Ted Nugent, Willie Nelson, Claire Forlani, Barry Corbin and Tom Skerritt.
Keith and Carrington play small-town deputies who embark on a wacky road trip to rescue their girlfriends from comically evil drug lords.
I don’t know about everyone else, but when I hear a movie that involves the words “Toby Keith” and “wacky road trip,” I think: Hollywood casting directors really know what they are doing.
This reminds me of the other new Oklahoma-related movies coming out this summer. One involves Al Eschbach as a badass former Navy Seal forced to stop an Al-Qaeda sleeper cell planning on blowing up the Empire State Building. The other is an indie flick starring Hinder as a struggling Emo band coming to terms with their homosexuality and deep love for each other.
It’s all just another day in the brilliant minds that run our entertainment industry.
I remember when Claire Forlani was one of the stars in Mallrats and Meet Joe Black. I can’t believe she’s getting herself associated with crap like this now.
I assume this will premiere at the Sooner Theater?
Or would the OU football film room be more appropriate?

Be careful not to click on the spoiler link! It might say something like “Guys meet girls, guys lose girls to kidnapping meth lords, Justice League 8.4v2 is released just in time to save the girls from the sinister meth lords, guys rekindle with girls, movie ends with horses drinking beer.”
“Comically evil drug lords”
I’m picturing Harvey Korman and Tim Conway
Wow two Oklahomans starring in a blockbuster Hollywood production. This must be a first for our fine state?
I think Oklahoma Film Industry is missing the boat by not promoting my Trilogy scripts titled: “Mathis Brothers” Film one is called “Mathis Brothers meet the rodent in the Tunnel of Doom”. Film two is called “Mathis Brothers: Puppies bouncing in the Lap of Luxury. The Third and final Film is called Mathis Brothers and the Borrowed Baby”. All of the films will be preceeded by short animated PICKSTAR flicks Starring “Jerry the Gerbil”.
oh my god you’re not kidding. i’d sooner watch a rerun of saving grace. or that commercial with those insane eyelash/spiked hair ladies that i don’t even know what they sell as i am physically compelled to change the channel involuntarily.
You are all idiots…Keep your flipping comments to yourself. Toby keith has done more for OU football and OU College than anyone else. So yeah, maybe they will have a tribute to him and show it in the filmroom seeing that it will be released during Football Season!!!!!! I personally can’t wait to see the movie. Broken Bridges (his 1st film) was awesome and still getting great reviews.
“OU College”?? Holy Hell, man. Yeah, the “Broken Bridges” reviews are great:

I may be Mr. Obvious here, but czzzzz doesn’t represent the typical sooner fan.
czzzzz has it right. If she’s referring to the reverse psychology he used singing “Shoulda’ Been a Cowboy”, Toby Keith has done more for OU football than Bob Stoops, Barry Switzer, and Bud Wilkinson combined.
If you would like to get a first-person comment about this project from Toby Keith, I heard that Jim Traber has his number in his cell phone. Traber also played in the bigs (in case you hadn’t heard).
I just can’t wait for Toby’s new album, “Lowest Common Denominator”.
I know one award he already owns in my book…
BEST.MULLET.EVER.
That album cover looks like a prom photo circa ‘93, complete with draped background curtain for added elegance.
Nice.
Studies confirm that the obsession Hinder has with drugs and whiskey stems 100% from their inability to cope with their homosexuality.
TMZ.com says the drummer is waiting on the bassist to “make the first move”.
Where did you did up that album cover? That must be from 21 years ago. Personally, I can’t wait for the movie. It is going to be hilarious!! I thought he did a great job in Broken Bridges,and I think the movie would have done much better if it had been promoted rather than just shown in a few theaters, then relegated to CMT.
He’s one of the unfortunately few real men left in this country.
…and to think you guys hammered Nancy Miller for Saving Grace.
Sales tax passed….Wanda Jo May have to shell out $6 on her grocery bill.
