Hollywood Sucks. I Have Proof.

Just in case anyone actually questioned why the Hollywood box office has been in its worst slump in years, here's a list of recently greenlit movies:

• Hollow Man 2, because the first one was so good. In "Opposite Land".
• Road House 2: Last Call
• I Know What You Did Last Summer 3
• Summer School 2

None of these movies have the original stars in them as they are relying on the title alone to propel them into megascheckles. That's right. There will be no fantastic clevage shot from Jennifer Love Hewitt, nor will you see a fantastic flying scissor kick from Patrick Swayze. What you will see is the mediocre workings of some overpaid Hollywood writer who manages to take the outline from movies that have already been made and change the names around slightly. Why develop a whole new script when these work just fine! Just rewrite slightly, add some hot young actors, pay them next to nothing, release the movie during an odd box office period and fake a "#1 At The Box Office" credit! As an added bonus, do a PR release that the original actors are pissed that they aren't in the movie, just to fuel the B.O. fire. Or better yet, offer a small cameo to the original people to draw in more fans of the REAL movie...
