Bah?

Movie remakes, TV shows made into movies, comics made into movies--whatever your non-movie fictional poison is, someone is making a movie out of it. I'd given up complaining about it since before they really--really? really--went there with the pretty left-field remakes like Starsky and Hutch or The Dukes of Hazzard. I mean, I give up at this point. If it exists, someone is going to make it into a movie, no matter how little you want it or how little appeal the original work had in the first place. Even things that are good and could have new life breathed into them end up as movies that make you go, "Really, Hollywood? Really?"

Take this picture:


First thing I thought upon seeing it, "Oh, it's a photo shoot." No, seriously, people do photo shoots in the style of movies and such all the time. Surely, that's what that was. That Liam Neeson, he has some sense of humor! Was Capt. Murdock his Halloween costume this year?

Oh, wait, it's actually a still for a movie. Really? The Hangover guy, Wickus van der Merwe, Qui-Gon Jinn and some UFC guy I'd never heard of until Wikipedia showed me a picture of him in some orange undies...they're in a movie together. As Iraq War vets who are supposed to be the A-Team. Really? Really?

no really wtf?, movies
