It has been 30 years since Goldie Hawn suited up as Private Benjamin and now Anna Faris will be doing the same. The Scary Movie star will be taking over the ranks in the latest movie to be destroyed, I mean remade by New Line. According to the Risky Business, “The new take will set the story in contemporary times with modern wars as the backdrop. Insiders say the studio doesn’t want to poke fun at the men and women in the service or take political potshots, but rather focus on the empowerment elements and build on the fish-out-of-water comedy.” Even though they are keeping the feeling of the original I don’t think they need to redo it. Even though Anna Faris does have a Goldie Hawn feel about her, she doesn’t need to do one of the roles that made Hawn an icon.
I have given up asking Hollywood to stop making remakes and try making original films instead, so I ask you film goers to stop seeing them because money talks!
