No, Baby
Hey, more Who talk...
Aimlessly reading some entertainment headlines today, I came across the news that Mike Myers is slated to star in a Keith Moon biopic. I like Myers as much as the next guy -- I shamelessly admit to loving all three Austin Powers movies -- but I'm having some difficulty finding this to be a good idea. Maybe he could pull off Moon's later years, though he's already about a decade older than Moon was when he died. But as a teen, when Moon joined the Who? Just not plausible.
Besides, actor/former Phantom Planet drummer Jason Schwartzman is clearly the best man for the job. I suggested this in the pages of Magnet in 2002, but the article is no longer available online, damn it. Just take my word for it.
