Callaghan has been called a post-feminist punk writer whose plays include Dead City (a retelling of James Joyce's Ulysses), Lascivious Something (Reagan-era romance set around winemaking) and That Pretty Pretty; Or, the Rape Play (which Callaghan's website describes as Guns, gals, Jello wrestling, war, and lots and lots of profanity). Well, all right then now you've got my attention.
Dialog from the up coming "I dream of Barrack"
Let me guess all the actors will be black...but the Genie will be a White Lesbian?? What do you wan’t master? B**** you know what I want.....
The Jeannie theme is the worst ear-worm ever for me. It’s so hard to get out of my head once it starts. I am not looking forward to it getting lots of airplay...
They already did a Jeanie movie, it was called Weird Science.
I doubt this incarnation will be as good as that one.
The season 1 theme (by Richard Wess) was nice, but not as catchy as the one in later seasons (by Hugh Montenegro). Season 2 through 5 had a color animation with the parachuting capsule and dancing genie, this is the music everyone associates with the whole series.
The new title will be “Daddy has to Jeannie’s” ...
Jeannie was a crack whore?
They can’t possibly mess it up as bad as that “Bewitched” movie.
Nicole Kidman could have been perfect, what a blown opportunity.
The original show was the best, Agnes Moorehead and Elizabeth Montgomery had the best mother/daughter screen chemistry I’ve ever seen.
Derwin...dustbin....MOTHER!
Those were the good old days!
Has to be with the original cast or it won’t work!
It won’t have Barbara Eden, so who cares?
you have a punk feminist rewriting an american classic,...
I don’t see how she would NOT screw it up. She would have to put the feminst dogma, political correctness all on the shelf and write a story about love without the phart/barf/spew jokes.
Can someone tell me if there have been any NEW movie plots in the last 10 years. Everything is a “remake”
I even heard they’re remaking the Wizard of Oz
What, no one has ANY new ideas!!
(I have been to the movies only 4 times in the last 15 years, & one of those was because my oldest wanted to take me, my husband & the little one to the final Star Wars movie when it came out, otherwise, I wouldn’t have gone to that one)
Oh, and I heard they’re going to remake Ferris Bueller’s Day Off too - Geeze!!!
Several, but all animated
“How to train your dragon” is the latest.
Ghost in the Shell (ya, I know -1995), Cowboy Bebop (1998),
Steamboy (2004) and THe LAst Exile (2003).
The coolest new is Cat $hit One (2010 release)
I’m waiting for someone to remake the 2008 election...
Just sing a few verses of "The Night Chicago Died" to yourself and it will go away.
That might work. I remember it (Lord knows why), but it doesn’t keep repeating in my head.
