Shrek the Third comes out tomorrow and I will see it because, unlike asparagus, I like the Shrek movies. But how does one live with themselves for putting out Basic Instinct 2, Miami Vice, Lassie, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and a remake of The Smurfs. Next, Hollywood will hit rock bottom by doing a movie based on a bad TV show like Starsky and Hutch…
What? You’re kidding me. They did Starsky and Hutch?
Now, some sequels aren’t bad. Harry Potter is an ongoing story, not unlike the Lord of the Rings trilogy.
The Spider-Man series tells a story as well:
Spider-Man – Peter is in love with Mary Jane. They almost get together, but every time they get close, someone screams and Peter has to turn into Spider-Man and save them. Mary Jane gets ticked off. Peter speaks in a constant monotone and Mary Jane looks like she has to stuff cotton into the cavity where her brain is supposed to be… Plot twist – Mary Jane doesn’t know Peter is Spider-Man.
Spider-Man II – Peter is in love with Mary Jane. They almost get together, but every time they get close, someone screams and Peter has to turn into Spider-Man and save them. Mary Jane gets ticked off. Peter speaks in a constant monotone and Mary Jane looks like she has to stuff cotton into the cavity where her brain is supposed to be… Plot twist – Mary Jane finds out Peter is Spider-Man.
Spider-Man III - Peter is in love with Mary Jane. They almost get together, but every time they get close, someone screams and Peter has to turn into Spider-Man and save them. Mary Jane gets ticked off. Peter speaks in a constant monotone and Mary Jane looks like she has to stuff cotton into the cavity where her brain is supposed to be… Plot twist – I don’t know; I haven’t seen the movie yet.
The Solution
So Rick, what’s the solution? What can save Hollywood? Well, the answer is so simple I can’t believe no one can see it.
A sequel to the classic 1992 hit Pure Country, starring country music legend George Strait and the lovely Lesley Ann Warren. In this movie, George Strait plays Dusty, an unhappy country music superstar. His manager Lula (Warren) has turned his show into a rock concert-type extravaganza. Dusty walks away from the tour one night after a show, hitches a ride with a trucker back to his hometown, trading his snakeskin boots for the trucker's beat up leathers.

grait idea!!! I'm forwarding your suggestion to other Strait fans....George has to be in it otherwise it's not worth watching over and over and over again....the ladies watch for different reasons.....

My wife and I were in Nashville in September and saw Bill Anderson perform Give It Away. He asked the audience to buy the record because 'George doesn't need the money but I sure do' so it was nice to see it win a couple of awards the other night

Sounds good to me...but they'd have to get the okay from Hank...LOL...catching this movie like you did one day over a year ago hooked me as a Strait fan.
I bought the movie, and watch it every now and then. I saw him in concert this past January for the first time. Truthfully, I don't think he would do a movie with that obvious of a plot, but I've heard him say in rare interviews that he would do another movie if the right script came along. He would make all of us fans on his CMT message board VERY happy.
