Hollywood is out of new ideas, part 1,339

[Songbird]

When you start hearing about the Knight Rider movie or the Mork & Mindy movie or the Laverne & Shirley movie, then you'll know Hollywood is out of ideas.
I'm just wondering why they haven't done Baywatch the movie yet. :

Lenny & Squiggy: The Movie.

You know, Starman, that would actually be a funny movie.

 

[Batman]

I'm just wondering why they haven't done Baywatch the movie yet. :

You mean the first movie shot entirely in slow motion? The one Pamela Anderson wins an Academy Award for?

I've been saying for years that we need more additions to the Police Academy, Jurassic Park, Home Alone, and Weekend at Bernie's franchises. Maybe now I'll get my wish

Looks like you will: http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/news/jurassic-park-jumps-the-shark.php

Bloody-Disgusting has revealed some plot speculation for the fourth film.
From Bloody-Disgusting:

Universal Pictures has officially begun casting for Jurassic Park IV, which will film in Kauai, Hawaii later this year! Laura Dern confirmed her return to the franchise as Dr. Ellie Sattler here as Sam Neill will NOT return. We're told that the film is about the government who has trained dinosaurs to carry weapons and use them for battle purposes.

This is dangerously close to Dr. Evil's “sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads.”

Took me some searching, but I knew I'd heard of something like this.

Truly horrible idea.

Does George C. Scott still die in the middle or is it earlier....

Anybody hear that the Coreys are going to be in a sequel to Lost Boys? This is NOT a set up to a joke.

 

[Mizzougrad96]

They're also remaking Porky's and Footloose...

If you ever get a chance to meet John Waters ask him if he's ever considered directing a remake of Boom (a horrendously awful, so bad it's good flick starring Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. It was "written" by Tennesee Williams.). You'll thank me for the ten to fifteen minutes of greatness that will follow.

"I would never sleep with anyone who doesn't like Boom."

Oh, yeah, I think we've commented on this when it was first announced.
I know we're supposed to sneer at remakes/reboots like this, but with Liam Neeson's involvement and that trailer, I am SO there!

I don't know, are we sure he's not the son of Enrico Palazzo instead of Frank Drebin?
