What Is Hollywood Thinking?

That sequels to bad movies will be better?

This Summer we get the "Over the Hill Gang" in the "Expendables 2!"

Now Hollywood is looking to make "Dukes of Hazard 2?"

There are so many good books out there that could be made into good movies, instead we keep getting fed the SOS!

I'd almost rather see Snake Plisskin escape from Tuscon before these 2 movies. If you dont know who Snake Plisskin is, that's just sad.

Supply and demand. I guess someone likes those movies.

Dukes of Hazzard - cheap to make, nice profit margin.

Expendables - First one made a lot of money, and wasn't a bad movie, nice profit margin.

Hollywood makes what people want to see.

Btw, escape from new york was a good cheesy movie. Escape from LA was unwatchable.

Dukes of Hazzard 2 sounds so bad I just might have to check it out.

Don't forget Rambo 5 -- This time in Mexico.

I've seen all 24 of the "Barely Legal" movies and they never get old!

Our definition of bad is different than the definition used by studios. "Bad" for them is any film that doesn't make money. A film that makes money, in this age of media, will get a sequel no matter what. It's why there was a string of those awful "_____ Movie" parodies awhile back.

Stop going to see the f*cking things and theyll stop makin them

Sounds like you're watching a different genre, or am I misinterpreting "barely legal"?

Now Hollywood is looking to make "Dukes of Hazard 2?"

They already made Dukes of Hazzard 2. It went straight to DVD and was supposed to be a prequel and a reboot. They should just leave that franchise alone.

I wonna see "Barely Legal" the prequel...

Dukes of Hazzard being rebooted?

(CBS News) "Observe and Report" director and HBO's "Eastbound and Down" co-creator Jody Hill are reportedly writing and attached to direct an untitled action film set in the American South for Warner Bros. that some are speculating is a "Dukes of Hazzard" reboot.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the story is set in the 1970s South and involves an outlaw duo.

"The Dukes of Hazzard" was originally a CBS TV show that aired from 1979-1985 starring Tom Wopat and John Schneider. The series was turned into a movie in 2005 starring Seann William Scott and Johnny Knoxville.

Billy Gerber, who produced the 2005 film, is also attached to produce with Hill.

Good.

If you want great acting and great stories in your movies, follow the independent movie scene, THAT is where the really amazing movies are. Clooney's "The Descendants" or the movie "Take Shelter" are recent examples. There are still great movies being made, just not always at the theater.

Not to mention a lot of movies aren't made for people in the US anymore. It's a worldwide thing now, and a lot of times they can make more overseas. So that is taken into account. Example is Avengers, being released overseas first.
