THE LAST DRAGON REMAKE GETS GREEN LIGHT
THE FACTS
The Hollywood Reporter confirms that plans for a remake of the cult classic The Last Dragon are underway.
THE SPIN
If Busta Rhymes didn’t look like he had Spliff for dinner, and Rah Digga for dessert, he’d be a shoo in to reprise the role of Sho’Nuff. But, you can’t be the shogun of Harlem with a belly, so now Samuel L. Jackson will tackle the role.
Look, I love this movie, and I don’t care how bad people think it is: It’s a classic – as in so classic that you need to leave it the hell alone. Why is Hollywood so dead set on remaking everything? Is originality expensive now or is repetition just a better deal?
I guess it doesn’t matter, because this movie is happening whether any of the film’s die hard fans like it or not.
So now, play the guessing game. Who should replace Taimak and Vanity in the remake? If you say Chris Brown and Beyonce, I’m going to hit you with the glo.
