JGL’s “Live With It” details and set pics, yo!

Some minor details about Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s movie, Live With It.

You know what’s not a good title for a movie? “Untitled Cancer Comedy.” Of course, that was never what the film was going to roll with, but that’s what we have been referring to the upcoming Seth Rogen/Joseph Gordon-Levitt movie as for the past few months. Originally titled I’m With Cancer, the title mysteriously disappeared a while back, but now they have come up with a new name and it’s pun-tastic.

Rama’s Screen is reporting that film is now titled Live With It. Based on the life of producer Will Reiser, Gordon-Levitt stars as a 25-year-old who is diagnosed with a rare and terminal form of cancer. The rest of the cast, made up of Rogen, Bryce Dallas Howard, Angelica Huston, Ana Kendrick, and Philip Baker Hall, play people in the character’s life as he tries to process the news.
Okay, so it’s not a great title and it includes a pun, but at least it makes sense (I’m looking at you Knight and Day). Besides, aren’t you glad that this movie took that title instead of a dumb romantic comedy? This movie has Joseph Gordon-Levitt – it deserves some leeway.

Joseph gordon-levitt talks about the sex that was THAT scene in "Inception".

The Hallway Scene. Explained. By JGL. Awesome.

Of all the wackadoodle imagery in “Inception” — city streets folding in on themselves, architecture that calls to mind M.C. Escher, flameless explosions that go pop-pop-pop around the actors — one scene above all else will have audiences leaving the theater going: “How the heck did they do that?”

The scene in question is a hallway fight between Joseph Gordon-Levitt and a nameless bad guy. The twist is that the brawl takes place in a dream within a dream, where Gordon-Levitt and his team have traveled with an assist from a machine that lets them infiltrate another person’s subconscious. For reasons that are far too complex and spoiler-filled to explain here, the two men end up grappling in zero gravity as the hallway rotates and they flop this way and that.

“Gravity goes all dreamy,” Gordon-Levitt told MTV News.

It’s an amazing spectacle to take in on the big screen — “The Matrix” on steroids — and not an easy one to have filmed in the real world. “One of the coolest things about it is that we kind of did it for real,” Gordon-Levitt said. “We weren’t in one of those zero-gravity machines, but we weren’t in front of a green screen either. The mode, the fashion in Hollywood nowadays, is to do it all with computers later. But [director] Christopher Nolan likes things to feel real. If he had put me in front of a green screen and said, ‘Pretend you’re floating. Pretend you’re off-balance,’ I would have been like, ‘Ah, I’m floating, I’m off-balance.’

“But instead, he put me in the middle of this set that spun around 360 degrees or he hung me on wires or put me on this seesaw contraption,” he added. “All of those moments where it looks like I’m off-balance? That’s because I was off-balance. I was doing my best to keep my balance and fight this guy when the floor was becoming the wall and the ceiling was becoming the floor.”

At 4:55 in the video below, there is a quick glimpse that shows the set they used for this scene.
