Okay, since most of my readers are movie people. I am going to try to have a movie post on here on a semi-weeklish basis about movies that are coming soon.
Micheal Moore has been in the Delware Valley shooting footage for his next film Sicko (though the title may change before it is released), which is about the state of healthcare in the US. It wouldn't be unlikely if he shows up in some south jersey towns because of all the healthcare buildings around. Supposedly, he is targeting parmasitical sales reps in the currently being filmed segments.
I hope you like remakes because Hollywood has a ton of them on the way. Cedric the Entertainer will be star in the remake of the Dangerfeild classic Back to School. Adam Sandler and Chris Rock are going to be in a remake of the Longest Yard, about a football movie between prisioners and prision guards. Bert Reynolds will be in this remake playing a rather large part, he was in the original too, oddly enough. I can't think of many times that his has happened aside from cameos. The Vincent Price horror classic House of Wax is being remade with Parris Hilton. Hmm..what else there is a remake of the James Stewart movie (havent seen this one yet) the Flight of the Phoenix.
Kevin Smith said while pushing Jersey Girl, that the days of silent of Jay and Silent Bob were gone. That he would do more adult themed movies. I guess he is a flip-flopper, because there is a sequel to Clerks, called The Passion of the Clerks currently in pre-production. Smith is still trying to make a Fletch movie. The same Fletch that starred Chevy Chase in the 80's. He was supposed to do this in mid-90s, but it kept being pushed off. God knows if Chevy will even be in it or if he will be replaced by Jason Biggs or something.
Speaking of movies taking a long time to be made. There is a live action/cartoon mix movie that has been in production so long that John Candy and Madeline Kahn as voices. Of course, they both passed away quite awhile ago. Candy over a decade ago. This movie apperently has been moved around from different companys and has been shelved a number of times. Look for a 2005 release for this movie, and it might just end up as a TV movie after all that trouble.

Seriously, I think they should leave Back to School as it is. Rodney Dangerfield made that movie what it was, as with all his other movies...let it rest. And another Fletch? Please...I know Kevin Smith has done some pretty cool stuff but leave it alone, especially if Chevy Chase isn't going to be in it (even though I don't think he has anything else going for him lately).
Eh, I can't see the new Back to School being good.
Its a shame if a younger generation picks will eventually pick that one over the original. Back to School and comedies like that should be passed on to the younger people. Hell Caddyshack and Back to School were pretty much passed on to us since Caddyshack was in 1980, and Back to School was in 1983. The movie was Dangerfield.
I was a little miffed Netflix doesnt have Easy Money to rent. I want to see a film of his that I haven't seen but the leaves all his staight to video stuff. I dunno.
