FameCrawler : remake

In Which Tom Cruise and John Travolta Will Ruin Movies for Our Children and Our Children's Children

People tend to do some crazy stuff in the final days, case in point, apparently Paul Newman used his dying moments to grant Tom Cruise his blessings regarding a remake of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (see hat above).

Cruise will star as Sundance while John Travolta will play the role of Butch Cassidy.

I think I just died a little inside.

The question then rises (by me as a way of tying this post into FameCrawler), what exactly do Cruise and Travolta hope to accomplish?

Do they want their children to think that they alone have starred in all of Hollywood's greatest moments, now with an extended bicycle scene (music by Beyonce with special guest Moby)? Or do they just want my kids to think that nothing is sacred?

A bit of both perhaps?

Some things are perfect just the way they are and don't need to be meddled with. On the other hand some could use a fresh look and the idea of Liam Neeson remaking Clash of the Titans actually excites me.

Why the double standard? It's my thing.

UPDATED: There is some speculation that this may be a rumor. Cross your six-shooters.

The Day the Smiths Stood Still

I know, that headline was all kinds of clever.

Will Smith and the Smithettes (Jada Pinkett-Smith, Willow and Macy Gray) are a holiday tradition in New York City. Their high kicks and red carpeting is a must see for kids of all ages!

Whether or not the premiere of "The Day the Earth Stood Still" warrants such attention remains to be seen.

Lori Loughlin Moms It Up on New 90210

The promo is out for the new version of 90210. Lori Loughlin will be speeding up her mom-o-meter, as her real life children are about half the age of what her television kids will be- because Beverly Hills moms have to be young and hot, duh.

The point is that the new spin on the old show, complete with some tagline about if you live in the zip you gotta live by the code, will be coming soon to the CW, and wow, what a piece of crap. Granted, I can't claim to have been a fan of the original, but please tell me that it wasn't this bad.

At least the stars in this promo look like actual teenagers, so there's that.

Enjoy:
