Memorable Lines (squeezed out)


So I heard that there's going to be an 'A Team' movie. That's right. An adaptation of the 80s 'action' series for the big screen to be seen by thousands (if not millions) of sheep eager to enjoy bowel-convulsing explosions, insipid and unbelievable car chases, and less than witty one-liners disguised as dialogue to be utilized by the unoriginal lemmings who piece together trailers for this dreck in order to close out said trailer with a 'memorable line'. Something in the way of a sincerely delivered-'Let's do dis.' or a gleeful-'You got that right!' I mean, really, if I'M making these up off the cuff what the hell does that tell you about the tw@ts that actually get PAID to squeeze this sort of feces out? Am I saying I could do better? No. But at least I'd be fucking original.

So, basically, fuck Hollywood for this sort of thing. I don't get it, seriously. Remakes of half-ass 80s TV shows? Constant sequels to films I never had the slightest desire to see in the first place? What the HELL?

My theory, and it may fall into the conspiracy category, is that they don't feel like paying for any original ideas. The concepts, characters, and storylines from all these TV programs are on hand so they don't have to spend a dime for the rights to any of them, so there... Now we get the same shit over and over again. It's the cinematic equivalent to Friday fucking fish sticks in elementary school.

Now, apparently, I won't have to hold my breath in anticipation of 'Growing Pains: The Movie'.
