Latino Review asked Tyrese if the rumor that he is going to be in the new A-Team movie is true and here is what he told them…
Tyrese: Yes sir. Soon as that script come back in and they tweak that thing out, we gonna go ahead and get movin'.
They also added that Ice Cube has long-been rumored for the role of B.A. Baracus, so maybe Tyrese is not taking over the role that made Mr T a star. I really hope that Ice Cube is the new BA Baracus and not Tyrese because I think he will be so much better in the role. Not that I will find out because I have no intention of seeing the movie.
Oh I might as well go ahead and say it, "I pity the fool!"

Billy Bob Thornton is Freddy Krueger
August 13th, 2008 under Billy Bob Thornton, Stupid Sequels/Remakes. [ Comments: 7 ]

I feel like I am trapped in a Nightmare in Elm Street movie because I am stuck in a nightmare I can't wake up from. It was bad enough when Michael Bay's production company announced that they were destroying Elm Street, now according to WENN Billy Bob Thornton has signed on to play Freddy Krueger. If they were going to cast an older Freddy why didn't they just stick with the original Robert Englund.
Michael Bay, Shia's accident halting production on your next piece of overpriced crap was the horror G-ds getting back at you for destroying horror classics like Elm Street and Friday the 13th. Please please please please stop. 
Where is Uwe Boll when you need him?

More classics being destroyed for TV
August 12th, 2008 under ABC, CBS, Stupid Sequels/Remakes. [ Comments: none ]


Hawaii Five-0 and The Witches of Eastwick are set to be destroyed, I mean be redone for TV.
The showrunner of Criminal Minds is looking to book Hawaii Five-0 on CBS according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Like the original series, it is a procedural chronicling the workings of the fictional Hawaiian state police department. In the original, the unit was headed by Steve McGarrett, played by Jack Lord. In the new series, McGarrett’s son Chris will be the top cop.
While the characters, storytelling and pacing will be updated, “we will try to keep as much of the original show as possible,” Bernero said. “I’m not trying to reinvent it.”
The famous opening music will be back but may also get a face-lift, much in the vein of the theme from the 1966-73 series “Mission: Impossible,” which was rearranged for the 1990s movie franchise.
As for the staple “Book ’em, Danno” closing line, there will be a version of it in the new installment, Bernero said.

Over on ABC they are working their potion to bring The Witches of Eastwick on to the small screen according to Sci Fi Wire. Not much more is known about the project except that ABC ordered a pilot for the possible show.
Hey network executives, what happened to coming up with original programming? I mean did you guys really need to bring back or import shows like Knight Rider, Kath & Kim and 90210? Well 90210 is OK, but the rest could have remained where they were. Please try to come up with something new and original and not remake what had already been done!

Scooby-Doo 3 is coming
August 4th, 2008 under Freddie Prinze Jr / Sarah Michelle Gellar, Stupid Sequels/Remakes. [ Comments: 9 ]


The Cartoon Network is doing a prequel to the movie that brought Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze, Jr together, although neither will be in the third Scooby-Doo according to The Hollywood Reporter. The prequel, Scooby-Doo: In The Beginning will show how the gang got together and fought their first ghost. I don’t know why, but I kind of want to see this movie
Unlike the previous movies this movie will star a bunch of no names when it debuts on The Cartoon Network next fall.

Howard Stern destroying Rock N’ Roll High School and Porky’s
July 31st, 2008 under Stupid Sequels/Remakes. [ Comments: 1 ]


Variety is reporting that Howard Stern (yes that Howard Stern) is producing a remake of the 1980 classic movie Rock N’ Roll High School, that should have been left as is. The only saving grace is that it is being written by Alex Winter aka Bill and Ted’s Bill. But even with that news, I am sure 3 out of the 4 Ramones are turning over in their graves.
If that news wasn’t bad enough, he is also producing a remake the 1982 movie Porky’s that is expected to start production this fall. I am off to cry, but in the meantime enjoy the infamous shower scene!

One of my favorite things about that shower scene is when it airs on non-cable stations they change the body part poking through that hole to his nose! She would know that nose anywhere!!! LOL!
