I want to be Elliott Gould (when he wasn't crap)

get the shirt mill going for Christmas, i know a college freshman who wd buy

the impetus for this was an offhand comment my wife made about wanting an Elliott Gould t-shirt so I was like sure that's easy and did up the design, but now I'm thinking maybe I should make a bunch. although I have no idea how to do that.

(I don't have a silkscreen print press or anything)

is that cafepress thing still around?

u sellin these homie?

it was so nice to see him in Ray Donovan. and he was awesome in it too.

I'm thinkin about it, maybe make a small limited run but I haven't worked it out yet. this was just the first one.

xp

I would buy the shit our of one

two

I guess I'm torn between figuring out how to fulfill individual orders one at a time vs. printing a bunch in various sizes and just hoping people buy them and I don't lose money

cool shirt!

A thought: You could accept "pre-orders" for a specified period of time, then once you know what you're committed to delivering print them in batches. That way you could economize on the more popular sizes by ordering in bulk.

I'm going to make at least one more for a friend, but all I did was buy a shirt (duh) and take my design to this place on Haight St that does custom shirt printing, which cost like $30. So that plus the cost of the shirt would be somewhere around $40 per, and who's going to pay $40 + shipping for a t-shirt? That seems crazy, but maybe idk the market here.

well let's see if this works

No shirts on sale!

does this work? this website is fucking garbage

http://www.zazzle.com/elliott_gould_tee_shirt-235817597516456131

I'd get one, but with postage and exchange, I'd be up around the budget for Whiffs. Looks great, though.

rented this yesterday, haven't watched yet

dunno what yr spoiler sensitivity is re: the premise, so if there's any don't click, but this is one of my favorite thread titles/OPs: his head is a silver egg

lol

I just watched The Long Goodbye the other day. EG is the best.

OK wait I just saw the Solid Gould shirt. WANT.

I was never able to get my stupid Zazzle profile to work but I can send you the artwork file if you want (I just took it to the local t-shirt print shop)

really? :D Ooh I might even get it on a tote bag or something. It's great.

sure webmail me

looks like the Zazzle thing does work now? idk let me know if anybody orders (or tries to order) one!

I was about to but the color I want is all sold out.

Who? was not v good, unfortunately. Wacky robotman premise aside there's just tons of repetitive exposition, w Gould doing his best to be a suspicious FBI hardass, but the plot is generally inert.

never knew about this

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Glimpse_of_Tiger#Film

god, i love stories like this

Warner Bros. reworked the film, changed the lead from a male to a female, cast Barbra Streisand ironically Gould's ex-wife and Ryan O'Neal and it became What's Up, Doc? Said director Peter Bogdanovich, "The only thing we took from “A Glimpse of Tiger”—and I don’t remember it very well—was the idea that the leading character had been to a lot of different colleges. He or she is very well-educated in a lot of different areas. And we put that into Barbra’s character."

WOW.

really, that connection is tenuous at best

i mean WUD? is clearly more of an adaptation of Hawks screwball comedies

have never seen Busting and i can't afford/make this; it's on amaz0n tho

also Peter Hyams makes me wary

It is interesting, sorta, but the politics of it are super-gross

Gould, Robert Blake and Allen Garfield might be the schlubbiest cast I've ever heard of.

In a one-to-one swap of Blake for Ned Beatty, Nashville wins that round.

the cast is great, but the premise (virtuous vice cops busting junkies, prostitutes, hippies etc.) is very reactionary/wtf

“Harry And Walter...” is a real folly but I enjoyed it. Exquisite production design, great cast and I belly laughed a few times so it gets love. Gould and Caan are fun together and on their own.

Elliot Gould is on cameo and that makes me sad.

Oh wow that *is* sad. Ass-backwards time we’re living in.

gould is a legend and v hottt

i feel like this last point is under appreciated

Not by me!
