General Movie Thread

When it’s an IP where the main character’s DNA is intertwined with the actor who played them…just leave it alone. Shame on Steve Martin for even thinking about playing Clouseau, let alone doing it.

Just re-work the script so that it’s about someone else. They do the reverse all the time.

The fact that they never re-made it with Eddie Murphy or Will Smith is a blessing from the God’s.

Chris Rock?

Scarlett Johansson has the look. I don’t know about the comedic chops though.

Which makes me appreciate what a force Madeleine Kahn was.

Leave Blazing Saddles alone.

Huh. Physically, yeah, she’s certainly not the most attractive woman out there. But there’s something about Ms. Wiig that does it for me.

I have a confession to make: I have never seen Tombstone.

I am rectifying that right now.

Sigh.

I love westerns.

I do not love, or even like, Tombstone.

It’s fine without Kurt Russell and Dana Delaney, but what do you do?

He’s terrible in almost anything he does.

Seems like every bit part is played by somebody who became notable.

His son Wyatt (no, really) is a lot like him and I’ve enjoyed his performances. They played young and old versions of the same character in the Apple TV Godzilla show, whatever that was called. I didn’t finish the show but I remember liking Wyatt Russell.

Completely concur

Even Billy Bob is in there. If there’s going to be a movie on something that can’t be proven without a doubt, this one does this trick.

Even Jason Preistley got involved.

What the literal fuck? Communist.

I liked Tombstone, I like all those movies about Wyatt Earp. Gunfight at the OK Corral with Kirk and Burt. Even the Costner one with Dennis Quaid.

The budget overage from having to replace daily all the chewed-up scenery must’ve been brutal.
