Jim Henson Co planning a reboot.




Labyrinth, Jumanji...WTF?.... remaking the movies aint gonna bring those guys back.


Hollyweird is turning in to a bunch of ambulance chasers trying to capitalize on these guys passing. Shameless.


hmmm...let me throw out a guess... maybe they target Johnny Depp to play the goblin king?....see if he can get another character acting like jack sparrow

Could David Bowie's body be at least cold before you announce this crap?

Yeah, this one was never going to be received well by me :)

Not that it should be received well by anyone. It's beyond ridiculous at this point. Seriously, David Bowie JUST died. Have some frickin' tact. I'm considering organizing a protest if it comes to fruition.

Yeah, who was in that meeting? Some Hollywood people (present company excluded) are so self obsessed they think they are honoring him by announcing this travesty on the same week.

This is just too far man. I am 100% with Stout. There are certain movies from our youth that you just dont get to remake. Because it doesn't need it. The charm of Labyrinth was the look and style of the movie and it can never be duplicated so just stop man...

I didn't know you worked in Hollywood, Bert.

I think he is referring to Cheese, Chaplin, etc


Yes. Just didn't want to lump our resident insiders in with the lame parts of Hollywood. Culture

I enjoyed the movie when I was a kid, even think I have the DVD somewhere that I got out of a bargain bin. That being said I agree do we really need a reboot?

Hollywood is running out of ideas.
