Pure. Fucking. Abomination.
Wednesday, April 28th, 2010Ok, I was fully planning on breaking my lengthy blog hiatus tonight with a healthy rant on why every fucking illegal alien caught within our borders should be harvested for organs when something came to my attention that cannot be allowed to stand.
The soulless, talent devoid, taintslurping, motherfuckers in Hollywood are remaking True Grit.
There are lines you do not cross.
You don’t touch up the Sistine Chapel ceiling to make it 3D for the tourists.
You don’t put a McDonalds in the Taj Malhal.
You don’t scribble flip cartoons in the margins of a Gutenberg Bible.
And you don’t FUCK UP one of the most iconic John Wayne films of all time.
Jeff bridges and Matt Damon??? Really?!?
Ugh, I want to puke… then drown some film execs in my sick.
I wouldn’t be half surprised if the assholes plan on making it 3D.
Gah!
I had heard rumors about the remake. It will flop spectacularly because… you can’t replace John Wayne. It just can’t be done.
Cock. Chugging. BASTARDS!!!!!!!!
That is totally whacked out! True Grit is a modern classic, and there is no way in hell to replace The Duke. ARGGHHH!
Strong post. Welcome back.
Sad day. I was trying to think of something comparable for the younger generation to put such a travesty into perspective with, but came up far short. A remake of RAMBO with Macaulay Culkin playing lead, or Neil Patrick Harris playing Maverick in TOP GUN. That might kind provide a glimpse into what this bastard reincarnation will likely be.
I heard or read that this remake is supposed to have a lot more grit, so I’m gonna sit back and give it a chance.
Hollywood passed into the ether forever after the Duke died. Matt Damon? Yeah, he’s a good modern fit to replace the Duke. LOL *Sigh*
I will say I’ve always liked Jeff Bridges. Maybe they’re gonna replace the Duke with the Dude?
I’m… so… PSYCHED!!!!!!
I can’t wait to tear this thing to ever loving shreds! I may even go see it on opening night in garb!
