another Tween musical! by el-guappo	Aug 18th, 2008 07:37:12 AM
I would rather listen to a fledgling emo-punk rock band, with ten year-olds still learning to play their instruments, fronted by American Idol reject Danny Noriega, whilst DEEPLY q-tipping my ears!

that FAME would be awful or anything, that's just how I like to spend my Saturday nights.
NOOOOOOOOO by Judge_Dredd	Aug 18th, 2008 07:41:52 AM
Why not just make something new!

A Scratching at the back of my head? by HewligansHaircut	Aug 18th, 2008 07:55:29 AM
Well, this isn't really something that many of the AICN talkbackers will be interested... No spaceships, not much CG, probably no semi clad androids... Oh, and lots of singing... But, something is scratching at the back of my brain. Something from the mid 80's. something I pushed down deep into my id... The Kids from Fame, are back... I don't know, that's kind of cool... isn't it??? And if it has any of the punch of the original Parker film, it could actually be quite good... You never know, you just never know.
Will Jack Bauer's brother be in it? by tonagan	Aug 18th, 2008 08:13:27 AM
He probably watches that movie and cries, looking at his younger self with a full head of curly red hair.
Fuck Watchmen by blackhole4140	Aug 18th, 2008 08:15:16 AM
THIS is what fandom cries out for!
I would rather have someone splash acid in my eyes by Judge_Dredd	Aug 18th, 2008 08:25:48 AM
then watch this..
I Fapped to Fame by conspiracy	Aug 18th, 2008 08:35:53 AM
Watched with the sound off, and a bottle of lotion close at hand, Fame was good for something in the mid 80's...rubbing one out whilst looking at Cynthia Gibb or Nia Peeples.
$30 million and they're shooting in NYC? by Harry Weinstein	Aug 18th, 2008 08:46:45 AM
Some old "jump out the van and grab the shot before the cops come" shit, I see. If they can keep the budget that low, this'll make a killing.
What, no 'Hi-Fidelity'? Sacrilege... by kwisatzhaderach	Aug 18th, 2008 09:36:07 AM

This is going to be like a Disney tween show. by ZeroCorpse	Aug 18th, 2008 09:41:07 AM
Pretty much EVERY Disney tween show is about young people seeking fame. It's like Disney wants to teach kids to aspire to be in the tabloids someday. A bunch of unknowns striving for fame in New York. . . Yeah, no one cares anymore. That describes half the people who move to NYC these days.
About that video... by Anna Valerious	Aug 18th, 2008 11:57:00 AM
It reminds me of TV Land's Friday Night Movie Spots with the two foreigners from last summer...
Fame from FAME by The Alienist	Aug 18th, 2008 12:08:54 PM
Well the arrogant but talented senior who the main cast eventually runs into waiting tables was Barbara's husband on "One Day at a Time" and then went to Broadway and now has FOUR Tony Awards, the latest for plyaing Herbie in "Gypsy" with Patti Lupone....
You mean Boyd Gaines? by tonagan	Aug 18th, 2008 12:15:42 PM
Sadly, I didn't have to look that up.

...than see this movie.
This Is Not Cool News by A-COD	Aug 18th, 2008 02:12:23 PM
Merrick, are you kidding me? Fame? Do you know your audience? No one cares here about a fame remake. Don't waste your time or bandwith with this "news".
Great another shitty modern musical by Charlie_Allnut	Aug 18th, 2008 02:49:09 PM
Andrew Lloyd Webber and Grease ruined the musical forever.
I Remember This Show... by Tipsy McStagger	Aug 18th, 2008 03:23:55 PM
And like my old man says, "You can't polish a turd." I know this to be true.
Holy Shit! LOL by Cronenfly	Aug 18th, 2008 03:47:48 PM

I hope this project dies a horrible death by pomophobe	Aug 18th, 2008 04:48:26 PM
It has to... any remake is going to suck shit, because the original sucks shit. IT HAS NO POTENTIAL!!
Next they'll remake Rocky Horror and Hair... by The Eskimo	Aug 18th, 2008 06:55:46 PM
....go to hell.
SO EXCITING!!!! by Eats_sandwich_gets_laid.	Aug 18th, 2008 11:28:22 PM
They're going to make a new marshmallow for Lucky Charms just for the remake. I'm ecstatic. www.tinyurl.com/whyeventalkabo utit?
They're remaking musicals that were movies then tv shows now? by deanbarry	Aug 19th, 2008 02:46:52 AM

damn! I hit the enter button too soon! by deanbarry	Aug 19th, 2008 02:47:49 AM
I thought Hollywood only remade crappy horror film???
hugh jackman as a teacher by Diagnostic	Aug 19th, 2008 06:01:48 AM
i think he'll be available.
I JUST GOT OFF THE PHONE WITH THE EIGHTIES by the power of GREYSKULL	Aug 19th, 2008 09:47:07 PM
It said it would like for us to give it a rest and would anyone mind awfully if it was put to bed?
A-KID! by onezeroone	Aug 20th, 2008 07:16:19 AM
My thoughts exactly. And it makes me wonder if Harry is trying to target a wider audience. Remember the chapters from that teeny novel that were posted then pulled down? What next? An AICN contest that wins you tickets to red carpet for TWILIGHT premiere so you can scream your lungs out?
Ooops... meant A-KOD... Typo! by onezeroone	Aug 20th, 2008 07:16:58 AM

A-COD! Edit button, damnit. by onezeroone	Aug 20th, 2008 07:17:44 AM
