Michael Bay to kill, I mean remake, Friday the 13th
October 2nd, 2007 under Stupid Sequels/Remakes. [ Comments: none ]


Michael Bay posted The Hollywood Reporter article that his production company is remaking Friday the 13th, but it will be a little different than the original first one of the franchise.

In the original “Friday the 13th,” the serial killer made only a brief appearance in the final frames and never killed anyone. Jason didn’t even don the famous mask until the third movie. The remake, however, will focus on Jason — who will wear the mask and kill — and keep the famous setting of Crystal Lake.

To make matters even worse the guys who wrote Freddy vs Jason are writing this script. I love Freddy and Jason, but I hated that movie.
I can’t comment anymore on this because it is hard to write with all the tears all over the keyboard. Where is Jayson when you need him? Jay Jay Jay Son Son Son.

Another ’80s classic being destroyed…I mean remade?
September 28th, 2007 under Stupid Sequels/Remakes. [ Comments: none ]


Will Smith’s son Jayden is rumored to be starring at Daniel Larusso in a remake of Karate Kid according to Digital Spy. Sony will not be bringing back Ralph Macchio to star as the lead because they feel he is too old to play the role even though he looks the same. There is also no word who be playing Mr. Miyagi, but I am hoping for Joel Grey, but I would settle for George Takei. Actually I would be happier if they didn’t remake the movie at all, but welcome to Hollywood what is original anymore?

Ace Ventura 3 without Ace Ventura
July 18th, 2007 under Stupid Sequels/Remakes. [ Comments: none ]

Why oh why are they making Ace Ventura 3 without Jim Carrey? Didn't they learn anything from Evan Almighty? Variety is reporting that Morgan Creek is making the sequel with John Flitter as Ventura's son who is trying to rescue a baby panda. I think they would have been better off making it a teen movie and giving the movie a different title. This movie has Razzie written all over it…if it actually gets to the big screen?
BTW note to Hollywood, stop making sequels without the leads…stop making movies turned into Broadway musicals into movies…and stop remaking movies that don't need to be remade.

Bill and Ted’s Bogus third sequel
July 11th, 2007 under Keanu Reeves, Stupid Sequels/Remakes. [ Comments: none ]

Right now I am going to go crawl into a fetal position and cry for a few hours because Digital Spy is reporting there will be a third sequel to my all-time favorite movie Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure (I swear it is) without Keanu Reeves (Ted Theodore Logan_ and Alex Winters (Bill S Preston, Esquire). What the freak is the point then? Unless it is there is son's but still no point. Please Hollywood cancel this movie because it is being made is most poor taste. Wah Wah Wah Wah.

Footloose being remade for the big screen as a musical…nooooo
July 11th, 2007 under Stupid Sequels/Remakes, Zac Efron. [ Comments: 1 ]

In yet more stupid movie news, Footloose is being remade into a musical according to Variety. They also say that the new script is being written specifically for Zac Efron who was in the High School Musicals and Hairspray which is OK I guess. The only good news that came from the story is it does not look like the movie will be based on the Broadway musical like The Producers and Hairspray. I saw the play and it was just alright. No word if Kenny Loggins will be working on the music for the movie, but I think they should have him do it because he did such magic with the first movie's music. What I really want is that Hollywood would cut loose and stop remaking their childhoods and come up with something new.
