Never mind… I can’t be bothered to write anything original so I’m just going to “reimagine” someone else’s article
This just in: he’s probably the only one.
John Travolta is excited about possibly starring in a remake of the classic ‘Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid’ with buddy Tom Cruise. “Someone came up with a good idea – it was a remake of ‘Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid’ – and there was a rumor that we were gonna do that, and I said to Tom, ‘It’s not a terrible rumor, it’s not a bad idea,’” the ‘Grease’ star said.
The original is one of those untouchable movies, in my opinion. But maybe…MAYBE…ten years ago or so they coulda pulled it off. Now? Who wants to see chubby Travolta in his hairpiece running around in tight Western clothes? And also…
Sigh. I don’t have the energy anymore. Fuck it, let’s just remake everything OK? No more original movies. Cancel the “Star Trek” sequel. Start at the top, with the “Chaplin” movies, and end with the last official 2009 release, whatever that is. If you can’t beat ‘em, join them.
