Yeah...instead of coming up with new and original movie ideas, how about just taking very popular 1980s TV shows and turning them into movies in the hope that those who are now in their 40s will be drawn to the theaters in droves hoping to recapture their youth by seeing their long ago heroes on the big screen. Starsky and Hutch, Dukes of Hazard, now the A-Team. Next it will be B.J. and the Bear, ADAM 12, CHIPS, The Fall Guy, TJ Hooker.
Dukes of Hazard did not draw me to the theater and when it was on TV, I watched the Home Shopping Network instead. Starsky and Hutch I watched on TV and felt it was a waste of time..should have watched the Weather Channel instead. The A-Team...I don't see myself rushing out to see it. B.J. and the Bear...maybe, but only because that show had a lot of scantily clad gals in it...but knowing Hollywierd, they will all be 6 foot tall, weight 14 pounds and have bleach blonde hair...which simply will not get me to go see the movie...one Paris Hilton is enough ugly, to have a screen full of Paris Hilton look-a-likes is reason to gouge your eyes out.
