Uh... by Flyingcircus	Jun 23rd, 2009 08:54:52 AM
There ARE new characters out there, Hollywood. New stories, even. I'm just saying.

cock
Please let Joe Dante direct this movie. by em_tee_em	Jun 23rd, 2009 09:11:22 AM
Joe Dante was born to direct this movie. I just read Doyle's first novel "I Love You Beth Cooper" a couple months ago and enjoyed it. This sounds better.

Yeeeeehaaw!!!
When I hear about movies like this being made by Ingeld	Jun 23rd, 2009 09:17:47 AM
I think that some where there must be thousands of struggling film makers with really interesting ideas thinking, "Sheesh, and I can't get anyone to back my film!"
This sounds about as good as.... by DANNYGLOVERS_DICKBLOOD	Jun 23rd, 2009 09:24:17 AM
....that shitty ass Frankenstein as Private Investigator bullshit that popped up a few months back. Character ensemble films = NO FUCKING TALENT
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeere's... by mr_macphisto	Jun 23rd, 2009 09:29:07 AM
DEATH.
Ed McMahon dead at 86 by batzilla	Jun 23rd, 2009 09:31:15 AM
Another great one has left us. BTW, real clever mr_macphisto. How long did it take for you to think of that? Oh brother.
Sure sounds uninteresting! by Toilet_Terror	Jun 23rd, 2009 10:27:22 AM
I'd rather see Joker vs. Godzilla
Sure sounds like Sky High... by Royston Lodge	Jun 23rd, 2009 11:24:43 AM
... which, in case you do not remember, sucked diarretic ass.
High School Musical 4 by Subtitles_Off	Jun 23rd, 2009 11:30:56 AM
Teen adventure comedies suck. They've ALWAYS sucked. Yes, GOONIES sucked. You know what else is tired? The recycling of "tropes" for your little children's book. This sounds like the concept imagined by a functioning illiterate who has been sleeping in Harry Potter bed-sheets for the past three years whining, "Aw, they did wizards and vampires. Now what am I gonna come up with?"
Sounds like fun. by grampageezer	Jun 23rd, 2009 11:49:48 AM
But Gort isn't a monster or mutant. And If Gort is in it, then so should "Robby the Robot". Ahh, but there are so many cool monsters, aliens, and giant mutated creatures from the 50s-60s to choose from.

thanks for the kudos! much appreciated.

And another bout of national mourning commences.

It can be alot of fun...
Monster Squad remake is just unacceptable! by Dr. Samuel Loomis	Jun 23rd, 2009 02:00:53 PM
I'm all for defending the best of remakes, but come on. That's like remaking Stand by Me or The Goonies, it's just not right. Monster Squad and Little Monsters were like my childhood films, please dont take them!
First of all: by TedKordLives	Jun 23rd, 2009 03:18:32 PM
Goonies does NOT suck. Goonies is the fucking end-all be-all of Kids Adventure movies. Second, Sky High was, surprisingly, not that bad. Any movie with Kurt Russell, Bruce Campbell AND two of the KITH cannot be that bad. And third, I love movies like this. I don't know why everyone's complaining about originality in this TB-It's based on a book, and it uses familiar characters and 'tropes', but it IS an original story.
I agree TedKordLives. by Dr. Samuel Loomis	Jun 23rd, 2009 03:43:12 PM
Originality arguments in talkbacks are futile. People piss and moan about remakes and there being no originality and then when a movie like this comes along they condescend themselves and say the opposite. Let them shit out of their mouths, they enjoy the taste. I just think there will be a lot of ass kissing involved in this film, to throw in all those different movie characters is a big deal. Especially when some can come from different distributors. Creature from the Black Lagoon and The Day the Earth Stood Still will always remain 2 of my all time favorite films.
Thanks Doc. by TedKordLives	Jun 23rd, 2009 03:50:28 PM
I'm hoping to see all sorts of little nods and cameos if this movie actually happens. Kinda like the Vorhees House in Jason Goes to Hell. Can you believe I've never seen Creature from the Black Lagoon? I need to get on that, huh?
might as well by frank cotton	Jun 23rd, 2009 04:58:27 PM
just burn everything i've ever written - hollywood is not worthy
Dave Foley in SKY HIGH by youridol	Jun 23rd, 2009 05:47:34 PM
Jumping onto his desk and yelling "All-American Boy!" made it worth it. Oh -- and The Bruce too.
I'm looking forward to this. BTW - MOnster Squad so over rated. by hallmitchell	Jun 23rd, 2009 05:48:05 PM
I'd never seen it. Yet after rave after rave on this site. I bought Monster Squad. Major dissapointment.
Gotta admit. by TedKordLives	Jun 23rd, 2009 06:44:29 PM
As an adult, Monster Squad doesn't really hold up for me, much as I'd like it to. Kinda slow and boring for the most part. Wow, just admitting that makes me kinda sad.
I just loaned by Bloo	Jun 23rd, 2009 07:22:22 PM
my copy of Monster Squad to some friends of mine so they could show their 15 y/o daughter along with both Bill and Ted movies, curious to hear her reaction--maybe you just had to be a certain age at a certain time to really love it
Much like the GOJIRO book was lifted and turned into GAMERA 4 by Monkey_King	Jun 24th, 2009 03:41:47 AM
Anyone ever notice how many things were lifted from that book and turned into the Tsuburiya film?
