Today at 3:45 p.m. central time, Original Thought was pronounced dead with the discovery that the movie Spies Like Us was going to be remade. Original Thought had been on life-support for several years, trying to battle cliched ideas and remake after remake after remake. It was thought to have not been able to recover from the frame-for-frame remake of Psycho, but Original Thought made a miraculous recovery only to be leveled by this recent bit of bad news.
Mystery somewhat shrouds the death since no one seems to know why Spies Like Us would be remade. It's not like it was a good idea to begin with.
Original Thought is survived by three kids, Creativity, New and Imaginative, all who are currently very ill.
Original Thought's Family asks that you donate large sums of money to independent cinema.
Amen mr. P.

ReplyDeleteYes I know, it's almost too much to take in one week.
ReplyDeleteThe thing is, I am terrified to find out what the NEXT remake will be. This one seems like to bottom of the barrel today, but tomorrow's next announcement might make us EAGER to see crap like this.
ReplyDeleteVery true Sammyray.
ReplyDeleteI long for a movie revolution where the power back into the hands of the creators, not the studios.
