Actually this means there are no ideas floating around Hollywood which is why they have to steal ideas from the 80's

its hard fro me to choose between Thundercats and Voltro...judging by Hollywoods willingness to constantly take something good and turn it into "something new" (and awful) it will be one of thoose great shows that they F up...

Thundercats is not live action, it is going to be animated. Also, Chipmunks 2 has been in the works since the first one was finished, it was a given. There is actually a web site that has been around for 20 years that lists all movies in "production", from ideas to development hell, I just wish I could remember the web site. It's a realy cool site to see how your favorite movie idea is doing. I have been wanting a Ranma 1/2 movie for forever, and the idea and pre-production has been on the list for almost 10 years.

When a movie costs $60 million to make and it pulls in $217 million at the box office just domestically (it made $370 million worldwide); not to mention the fact that it has probably made at least another $100 million in DVD sales/rentals. There is no way a studio in Hollywood wouldn't make a squeakuel, ahem, I mean sequel (regardless if it is a good movie or not)!
It's the same reason they keep making those stupid epic, date, disaster, superhero, scary movies and Meet the Spartans. As long as people pay to see horrible crap like that, Hollywood will keep making it.

Seconded. Though i submit Voltron for a close second. I read this in a movie magazine( i cant remeber which ne maybe it was a star log) but the plot of voltron is aliens invade the earth and five hip hop teenagers, hiding in a military installation, STUMBLE across these 5 robot things. If this is the true plot i am MORTIFIED.

I had no idea Voltron was going to be a movie! Unless they start getting people who really care about the core of these things, its gonna suck...actually I know its gonna suck and for the most part Im an optimist.
Worse yet, I cant believe there is ANOTHER Street Fighter movie..as if the 1st one didnt suck the blood and fun out of the video game and comic book..they make ANOTHER one that looks like it should have went to from the editing room to the toilet. How the F$%K is Hollywood getting the money to keep doing this? Is the recession over?! |

Depending on how they're done, and what audience they're targeted for Thundercats, Voltron and Smurfs at least have a vague hope of being decent.
How they're allowing a second chipmunk movie I have no idea. THe FIRST one was unwatchable. |

As much as I'd like to believe that these movies will bomb - and i voted for Chipmunks 2 - the truth of it all is... these pieces of crap are geared towards kids... and thus... will do more than well in the Box Office.
i have a 7 year old daughter and I ALWAYS find myself in the theater watching the very same crap that I can't stand... but i "put on a happy face" just to see her smile and enjoy the experience. i put my foot down on Beverly Hills Chihuahua though... no way in hell or high water i was going to budge on that one! she's stoked on the upcoming Joe movie... she's turning into a Joe Junkie like her old man. |
