As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

To be fair, some of those aren't remakes.

Not that I'm endorsing Hollywood as they've obviously run out of ideas.

I was thinking the same thing, but damn, it definately seems that new movies are never anything but rehashes of old movies. I cannot believe that this is it, we've explored every concept that's interesting enough for a movie (and many that aren't).

I believe we're all losing sight of the most important issues here :

1) Can they get Mr. T to reprise his role?
2) Who the fuck plays Hannibal since Peppard died?

I hear he'll be in it, but he probably won't be B.A. Barrakus.

2) Who the fuck plays Hannibal since Peppard died?


There are some very good B list actors who could fill that role easily. Knowing Hollywood though, they'll totally miscast it. Maybe it'll be Chevy Chase or Oprah Winfrey.

Ways to answer that.

a) What would Freud say about your cigar in McCauley's mouth idea?
b) Michael Jackson beat you to it.
c) Some Clinton/Lewinski joke that I haven't worked out yet.
