It's ridiculous that hollywood writers can't come up with anything new nowadays so they remake shows and movies.

Just wanted to let you guys know some stuff I found out the other day.

All of these are coming out either 2005 or 2006

Dukes of Hazards- Jessica Simpson, Sean William Scott, Johnny Knocksville
Miami Vice- Colin Farrell, Jamie Fox
A-Team- no cast yet
The Munsters- no cast but will be played by black actors as noted on site
Honeymooners- Cedric the Entertainer, Michael Epps
Knight Rider- David Hasselhoff

I won't be seeing the Munsters or the Honeymooners as I feel it is wrong to switch races of classic characters and I will also boycott the A-Team if the same thing happens there.

Let me know if anyone else has more info on similar stuff.

Side note Die Hard 4 and Mad Max 4 coming out soon. Bruce and Mel are back!

How does this sound for The A- Team cast:

Hannibal : Harrison Ford
Face : Jude Law
Murdock : Jim Carrey
B.A : Michael Clarke Duncan

I reckon that would be good

Apparently, somebody (who's 13) thinks some of these movies are a good idea, and that translates into $$, sad, but true

I hate Harrison Ford. I didn't have beef with him until he told George Lucas NO when he asks him to play a cameo in the newest Stars Wars movie. He was going to be Han's father. What an ass.

If they're gonna make all these T.V. shows they should make a Macgyver movie cause that guy was the man. He could build an airplane out of a laundry bag.

How is that being an ass? I say thats a great call by Harrison. How could he play his own father?

Its bad enough they changed Anakin in Episode VI.

I have to agree with the GM as Harrison probably only wants to be associated with episodes 4 - 6 and not the sub-standard later released films.

Without a doubt I think the worst change is Boba Fett's voice.

Could be worse, though, Snowball--it could be a movie made into a TV show.

Anyone remember when Fast Times at Ridgemont High was a TV show. What a way to disgrace that film.

Anything with Moon Unit Zappa should be approached with caution.
