Hi All!
And dont forget, the recent remake in the we need more 20 something aged,we cant show anything with quality bracket,.....Starsky and Hutch.
With the very talented yet why is he doing this crap, I dont really need the money comedic actor Ben Stiller.
Stillers real life buddy (great that nepotism is still alive) Owen Wilson,
and the "Music Extrodinare" Snoop Doggy Dog as Huggy Bear.
This Reimagine/Prequle is supposed to take place when the two meet, but yet it takes place in todays time frame. Great more crappy misic on the soundtrack, or even worse they "hip it up" with 70's music inorder to say Hey audience, wink, wink, get it its the 70s.
What a slap in the face to the actors, especially Antonio Fargas who a strugglig actor during that time, would have to accept this sort of role. Now they wont even hire him. Arrrgh. I can not belive th emissed oportunity to take the original and build upon its already sound structure (4 seasons) and make a film that can bring thye two characters back and make a film as excieting as The French Connection, The Seven0-Ups, or even a Seven, or Narc modern style film.
First Startrek is destroyed, then twiglight zone,starwars,(not to sad)then
Galactica thown in the crapper now Starsky and Hutch, Why did I ever want to get into film ,....I cant remember, my Youth is being tossed into the Toilet along with the shows i grew up on.
What a waste.
Laters!
