Don't miss this excerpt from Peter Biskind's new Bio of Warren Beatty. It deals with the making of Ishtar and has some good photos too. Vanity Fair online. www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/features/2010/02/ishtar-excerpt-201002

Kareem Abdul, Kareem Abdul, Kareem Abdul? Jabbar!
I'm glad to see there are other folks who love this movie as well. I was always surprised at how badly it was reviewed, compared with say "Spies Like Us". My well-worn copy died recently and it was quite the misadventure trying to find another one locally. But hey, atleast I'm not living a life of quiet desperation!

There are now several brilliant Ishtar scenes (oh that was redundant, sorry) posted on YouTube.
The Siskel & Ebert review is posted, too. It's hilarious. Those two guys crack me up.

I was the only one in the theater when I say this movie... I loved it! It was better than any Road Picture with Hope and Crosby. The last singing scene had me in tears, wincing, moaning and laughing! After all these years when I hear the mention of Ishtar, I sing its praises.

G'Day to all you ishtar freaks, like me. i thought i was the only one in australia, let alone the world who thinks this movie is brilliant. i absolutely kack my pants, every time i watch the vhs copy i have. the songs, the scenes, just everything about it. i think Ishtar should be the measure of comedy brilliance. and while we are at it, the measure of what is normal. i just love it, see ya, going to watch it again now!. cheers, marcus.

We love ISHTAR! Over the years I've acquired several used video-store VHS tapes (from sellers on Amazon). What a bargin! That ain't poverty. We saw ISHTAR on the big screen in 1987. Been a loyal fan ever since. This year, my sister and her 9 and 7 year old got hooked on it. In fact, she carries around a portable 8 inch VHS TV so she can play the movie daily -in any room of the house. The kids know all the songs, plot, and storyline. (We look to Mecca). These kids are probably the only children in the whole world who literally watch ISHTAR every day. I have spread the "ISHTAR love" to many people (hot fudge)! My nephew in NJ just submitted his take on the "Dangerous Business" song to Jef (it's good Jef! I think it's good enough for a record album). My co-worker is a huge fan too. Love the website Jef - and thanks for updating it with all the cool stuff too. That's Amore!

"We did not shoot at two Americans in the desert! We did not! Who told you that? Secretary of State? Well, how the hell would HE know?" Oh my god - ISHTAR fans, at last!! My mom went to see this movie when it came out and loved it so much she took me a second time and we DIED LAUGHING. I bought a VHS copy as soon as I came of age, so that I could have it with me always. When will there be a Region 1 DVD of this masterpiece? WHEN?? Love this website - can't wait to check it all out and tell my mom!!

Chuck Norris can write a hit song with the word "herb" in it.

OMG... I was just telling my family on July 4th weekend about the "WORST" movie I've ever seen. It was ISHTAR! I saw it many years ago... I didn't know anything about the movie when I saw it. It was SO bad that I couldn't believe I actually watched it. FLop is an understatement for this movie. It was a catastrophe of epic proportions. But, more power to you for being a fan. God bless and don't let it happen again.

Great job on the PW interview, Jef!
Now we need to convince Columbia to stop being a smuck and release our soundtrack!

If I had known that Elaine May wrote and directed "Ishtar", I would have gone to see it on the big screen. I just read that at first she guessed that the movie's bad press was fueled by the CIA - logical, considering her depiction of US/Middle East relations. Despite movie studios' interference and over-editing, her "A New Leaf" and "In the Spirit" are also amazing, wonderful, unique, hysterically funny movies.
