OK, now by that headline you are most likely assuming that I am calling del Toro, Carrey and Penn Hollywood stooges and making fun of them. Of course, we already know that Penn and del Toro are stooges on the “useful idiot” level, but you may wonder why I am slapping Carrey? Well, I mean it in the strictest sense — that Hollywood is casting for a new 3 Stooges team and these are the three Nyucks under consideration. It is del Toro as the new Moe, Carrey as the next Curly and Penn as our favorite nebbish, Larry.
But leave it to Hollywood to take the funniest threesome in Hollywood history and make a muck of it. This isn’t really the 3 Stooges at all. See, it is a “new” one, set in modern day, where three guys sortta, kinda like the 3 Stooges find each other in an orphanage and start a comedy team bringing them fame and fortune.
See it’s a “fictional treatment that maintains the Stooges’ gleeful slap schtick updated for a modern milieu.” Aw geeze. “Updated for a modern Milieu” tells me that they haven’t a clue what the Stooges were about in the first place. Can you say “straight to DVD”?
Who can bet we’ll get a PC Stooges all neurotic over their “portrayal of violence,” filled with angst and driven to dark introspection? It’ll be a brooding, dark “comedy,” right...

If anyone can mess up the Stooges, it will be Sean Penn.
This is too easy...
How about
Geinther, Zero and Frank?
Because I abhor him so much, and because I love the real 3 stooges (except Curly Joe), I'll pass on the movie.
Let Penn and anyone who hires him starve.
This new show has nothing to do with the Stooges, although if any of them were still alive, they'd be willing to do cameos.
Penn was hilarious in “Fast Times at Ridgemont High.” We often forget that he began his movie career in a comedic role.
They’re re-naming it THE 3 COMMIE STOOGES.
I would never get involved with this project. Talk about a loser.
The Stooges are the Stooges.

Penn - stooge. Type Casting?
The problem now is he's an arrogant, self righteous dufus.
