Inspired by Blades of Glory?

Filed under: Film Flickers

john-mayer.jpg

If Dancing With the Stars doesn't work out for him, Lance Bass should audition for this!

Disney is developing a flick called Synchronicity, a comedy that pokes fun at the world of synchronized swimming.

Here's the twist! The project will center on male synchronized swimmers.

Blades of Glory in the pool!

The fictional sport of male synchronized swimming has been a popular comedic target dating back to Harry Shearer and Martin Short's SNL skit in 1984.

Wonder if that's on the internets somewhere for us to see. We were too young for SNL back then!

We hope it stars Zac Efron and Chace Crawford. We just want to see them in Speedos!

    There is already a Japanese movie exactly like this that was so popular they made a TV show out of it. I am having difficulty remembering the name of it though! It had some of the same actors as the Japanese movie Ping Pong (specifically the ping pong coach was the swimming coach).

    Re: Jenn – THANKS! lol!

  24. Mason says – reply to this

    Mayer is a gay douche bag for sure but I'll bet when he slept with his fans MOST of them where male maybe 1 or 2 were female,

    There's a clip with Short/Shearer and Christopher Guest - brilliant. Christopher Guest is fantastic. Sadly, SNL blows now.

    John Mayer and his phony Stunt Life. He is tearing through the media begging for attention to bad he is not relying on talent.

  35. Fil says – reply to this


    35

    I really don't like Jennifer Maniston and this is all the revenge I need. This asshole is going to cause her so much grief. All we have to do is wait.

  36. r says – reply to this


    36

    male synchronized swimming isnt a fictional world. they just arent recognized by FINA because of the "unfair advantage" they have over the women. try it, i dare you and i bet you'd drown :p

  37. Alesh says – reply to this


    37

    I have no more respect for Mayer. What is this jerks problem. So juvenile and immature.

  38. Kate says – reply to this

    I have to admit that good gosh, he has a nice bod and that I LOVE HIS SENSE OF HUMOR!

    I always thought he was funny and brave! I think that has got to be one of the biggest reasons Jen finds attractive…

  47. robin says – reply to this


    47

    I wonder how many movie stars have had his dick in their mouth?



  48. 48

    This could be okay if they cast it write and actually try and write jokes. I am tired of movies like Meet the Spartans, etc. People really should feel like their intelligence is being insulted.

  55. Pam says – reply to this


    55

  56. 56

    Re: jonesjl9 – just realized i used write for right. lol. I have beeb drinking a teeny bit.

  57. lady says – reply to this


    57

    i was a synchronized swimmer for ten years. i competed nationally and internationally. one of the best synchronized swimmers i have ever come across was a man named bill may. he quit a while back because FINA doesn't allow men to compete, as synchro is a predominantly female sport. however, his abilities in the water were amazing and there's nothing fictional about it. kenyon smith is also a male synchronized swimmer who placed seventh in the olympic trials, but since he is male, he cannot attend.

    synchronized swimming is seriously underrated. it's one of the most difficult sports and having participated in many sports, i can vouch for that. give us some respect, please.

    Re: Laure – I already said it, Water Boys.

    Chace Crawford can be seen in a speedo in "The Covenant" along with Steven Strait. It's all worth it.

    I wish this douch bag would get lost. Ass hole is always looking for attention.



  63. 63

    total upgrade jen, esp with that lil tiny dinky winky sory excuse for a dick that brad had. i love that he fucks with the press and papz. his has more sense of humor in his toe nail then mimbo brad. poor brads dick is so smal he is practically dickless and since angie has taken his balls he is now a girl if you think about it



  64. 64

    I don't understand why he get's so many hot celebs to date him? What's the appeal?!

  65. lame says – reply to this


    65

    The Japanese already did one (not so much a comedy). Movie, two dramas AND a special.



  66. 66

    Oh, and no, normal straight man would ever pose like that for cameras! Man, he's really a piece of work isn't he! He thinks everyone in the world just loves the crap out of him!! This dude dropped out of music school because he said he knew more than the teachers! This guy needs to get over himself or get the hell outta hollywood, I'm tired of looking at his tired ass!



  67. 67

    This guy needs to get over himself….. I'm tired of looking at his ugly ass on everything, when was the last time the guy ever made some good music?

    73

    1. This movie project essentially sounds like a rip-off of the hit Japanese film "The Waterboys".

    2. Why is there a photo of John Mayer here when the story isn't even about him? Looks like it's time for someone to let go and move on.
