BOOO!

 

It looks so generic.  Why call it that if instead of the premise of a shady "fix-it" guy for hire you're just going to make MAN ON FIRE: SLEEK SUIT EDITION?

 

 

NO DAKOTA FANNING THIS TIME WE ALL WIN

Even though that looks like it'll be a fun movie - I feel like I've seen it a dozen times already.

I know exactly what you mean.  I'm sure it'll be entertaining and all that but... it's like a mish-mash of a bunch of other movies I've seen before.

I'm kinda scared to see it.  Caroll & Fred Rogers are my two unimpeachable heroes.  I would hate to discover anything that taints that.

 

On the other hand, he says "Good Morning Linda" to his helper just as soon as Big Bird comes into place.

So they're rebooting Cliffhanger.

 

And they're rebooting Stargate...with the same creative team from the first one, interestingly enough.

 

Other faded '90s movies I want reboots of: Tank Girl, Demolition Man, Super Mario Bros.

 

Also, a new Last Action Hero, with The Rock.

Rebooting Stargate is a decent idea, because the movie has some really interesting ideas and plot hooks.

 

Rebooting it with the same people that made the thoroughly mediocre movie (and doing so instead of the second and third parts they have been talking about for years, although I guess they hope this will be successful enough to spawn a trilogy?) on the other hand makes it sound like a less good idea.

[samberg]This has got EVERYTHING a Nic Cage MOVIE NEEDS:

 

- It's based on a book you buy at Rite Aid.

- It's about a guy struggling with the awesome  power of the male scalp

- Christopher Walken and Ron Pearlman both turned it down

- The entire project hinges on the acting skills of that one teenager who was on American Idol about a decade or so ago

- My character WILL have a scene with God, or a God, or an alien race who represent God and I, NICHOLAS CAGE WILL GET TO THE BOTTOM OF IT!!!!

At least one of the leads in the movie was in COP DOG.

 

 

Note: COP DOG is in fact exactly what it sounds like it would be:

MV5_BMTc3_Mj_I4_ODM3_M15_BMl5_Ban_Bn_Xk_

Looks cute, right?

 

From IMDB:

 

 

Robby (Billy Unger) and his mother lost their beloved father-husband nearly a year ago. He was a police officer and he died pursuing some thieves. Robby remains sad so his mother decides to take him to visit his dad's partner, a police dog, who is staying at a kennel, unable to resume his duties, out of grief as well. Although unusual, Robby is allowed to adopt Cop Dog Marlowe and take him home, as the officers believe he is permanently skittish. This does brighten both Robby's and Cop Dog's life. However, Cop Dog behaves strangely whenever the two of them go near a woods, where Robby's Dad perished. Could there be clues to the killers at that location? Before they can discover this, nevertheless, Cop Dog perishes in an auto accident. More sad, sad news it is. Yet, when Robby blows his father's dog whistle, Cop Dog is back, as a ghostly helper to keep hope that the killers will be brought to justice. Will they?

 

 

Please note this children's movie begins with the lead character little boy's father being MURDERED.  The boy is given a traumatized police dog as a pet to make up for that.  The dog is promptly MURDERED and comes back as a demon who uses the boy as a vessel for his vengeance.

 

Cop Dog.

 

JACK FROST meets THE CROW meets AIR BUD.

Yes this is real.

All kidding aside, if someone actually put some money behind this franchise, so that it didn't look like a sub-Syfy production, it would probably do gangbusters at the box office. The books were a publishing phenomenon in their day. If small-time pap like GOD'S NOT DEAD can make $60 million (and HEAVEN IS FOR REAL has a, um, real shot at $100 million), imagine what a halfway decent-looking Christian disaster movie could haul in.

If there's that much sucker's money floating around, then Mitt Romney and Eric Cartman were both right.  If you're not rich, you're just not trying hard enough.

 

Damn it.
