Thanks to all those Jackie Chan fans out there who went to see that crappy remake of The Karate Kid this weekend, another ’80s movie will be destroyed. According to Pajiba the next movie on the remake chopping block is Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead. Although the movie is just in the beginning stages, thanks to TKK doing so well at the box office I am sure this will sadly happen. Too bad the execs will only see how well TKK did and not how crappy the A-Team did because if they did then maybe they would stop messing with the movies I grew up with and come up with original movies for the new generation of kids.
The thing that scares me with a DTMTBD being remade is they probably will cast one the Disney girls like Miley Cyrus or Demi Lovato in Christina Applegate’s role and Mitchel Musso in Keith Coogan’s. Although I could see Austin Butler playing that role, but they wouldn’t be smart enough to cast him…or would they?
So back to Christina Applegate, how does she feel about her first big movie part being redone? Her is what she Tweeted, “DTMTBD remake? mmmm. Well one thing is for sure.The fashion will be better and the eyebrows shall be groomed…” Personally I liked the fashion, even the clothes during the fashion show. But I do agree with her about the eyebrows! Maybe they will find something for her to do in the new movie like play Rose Lindsey. How much fun would it be to see her play the boss as compared to the assistant? And maybe with a lot makeup they can age Joanna Cassidy who starred as Rose play the Babysitter?
