Eddie Murphy as The Incredible Shrinking Man? Well according to The Hollywood Reporter Brett Ratner is in final negotiations to direct a remake of the 1957 movie with a shrinking Eddie in it. For some reason I think the movie they will be remaking will be more like The Incredible Shrinking Woman as compared to The Incredible Shrinking Man.
As you know I hate remakes, but I think Eddie Murphy could actually pull this one off, so I don’t mind them redoing this one.
BTW here is a scene from the classic The Incredible Shrinking Woman with Lily Tomlin!
Yet another cheesey horror movie from the ’80s is being destroyed and being remade in 3-D. The massacre continues with My Bloody Valentine according to The Hollywood Reporter. The only reason why I have a little more hope for this movie is that Supernatural’s Jensen Ackles is attached and it is not being destroyed by Michael Bay’s stupid production company, but that doesn’t mean I am going to see it.
The movie will begin filming May 12th and you can skip it in theaters on January 23, 2009.
Fame is the latest movie to be remade according to Variety. The movie will be like the original where it follow kids from auditioning to get in to the High School of Performing Arts to the day that they graduate.
They will be holding open-call auditions next month on both coasts to discover some new talent for the movie. Hopefully this movie that begins production on Labor Day won’t be that bad. This is one of the few remakes that could actually work!
I thought Adam Sandler was redoing the classic Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, but according to Hollywood Reporter some guys named Kent Nichols and Douglas Sarine are doing it. Who? THR says they worked on something called Ask a Ninja which got a bunch of hits on YouTube. These guys better be good because they are messing with a true classic. If you never seen any of the Killer Tomatoes…what is wrong with you? Joking but seriously go out and rent it, it will make you give up ketchup and marinara sauce for a while.
Positive note at least Micheal Bay’s stupid company isn’t the one doing.
Platinum Dunes who is destroying Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street is now planning on destroying Rosemary’s Baby according to ShockTilYou Drop. I was really hoping last week when New Line folded into Warner Bros that Michael Bay’s horrible production company was going to go away with Friday and Nightmare, but no such luck because now he is in talks with Paramount to do Rosemary’s Baby. Please Paramount say no this and let Michael Bay destroy his own movies, we all know he has a great track record for that…Pearl Harbor.
Boycott Platinum Dunes because maybe if no one goes to see their crappy remakes the studios won’t let him destroy anymore of them.
