damn, this movie is going to SUCK!

[sasquatch]

1. Hipsters are going to LOVE this movie

[NewJeffCT]

2. I don't know one frickin' name on that list

at least I knew Howell, Thompson, Swayze, Sheen & Grey in the 1st movie.

[GreenPartyVoter]

3. Me either.

[SacredCow]

22. Me, either....

:shrug:

[abq e streeter]

4. Never heard of any of em either, but I'm excited anyway-one of the funniest movies

since Reefer Madness..... What? Milius meant it to be serious?????

[graywarrior]

5. Who the fuck are they?

[charlie and algernon]

9. no fucking clue

If they can't even get Shia LaBeuf to sign on to their project, you just know its truly going to suck.

[MrSlayer]

6. Great. A cast of no-names.

Never heard of any of these people. Not interested in any case.

[Iggo]

7. I've already seen Red Dawn.

[pinniped]

8. Did they hire these people from the Obscure Actors' Guild?

Tom Cruise is on my permanent boycott list, and it applies to his spawn.

Forget about it.

[charlie and algernon]

10. i didn't even know he had a grown son

I always thought the katie holmes spawn was his first. It really makes you wonder how awful it's going to be if they couldn't get ANY big actors to sign on.

[pinniped]

12. I just found out today on the Yahoo! homepage.

This movie should be renamed Red Yawn.

[NewJeffCT]

16. He was adopted by Tom Cruise & Nicole Kidman

He's 14 years old & also played young Will Smith in the Pursuit of Happyness movie.

[flvegan]

11. Three words: Straight to DVD.

[Frank Cannon]

14. Three letters: WTF

At least maybe we'll finally get that remake of Can't Stop the Music we've all been clamoring for, casted with young unknowns.

[WCGreen]

13. And Powers Booth as Powers Booth...

[charlie and algernon]

20. is he actually coming back?

[WCGreen]

23. I have no idea....

Just to say he is being left out..

[proteus_lives]

15. This going to suck to the Nth level.

You can't remake or improve upon 80s perfection!

[jmm]

17. These people aren't famous enough to get a VH1 show.

They must not have much of a budget for this film.

[Deep13]

18. Well, the original film sucked. nt

[charlie and algernon]

19. why do you hate America?

Wolverines!


I'm thinking that after you see this remake, the original will look like Saving Private Ryan.

[Deep13]

21. It's that "Ventura Highway" song that did it.

Anyway, that film was always somewhat of a joke at my high school whose mascot really is the wolverine.
