From the "Oh my, I hope it's not true" pile

I only just heard about this. Yeah, I almost gagged on my own tongue it's that stupid. The Disney team that brought you "The Lion King" with the musical talents of Elton John were planning on doing a loose re-make of Shakespeares Romeo and Juliette. The main characters to be portrayed by Fairy folk that live in the forrest. The title for this tragedy?

Wait for it.

Gnomeo and Juliette.

The good news.... apparently Disney have scrapped all plans for producing this film.
