What's next? Remakes of Classic Cereals

Is it just me or is 90% of everything a remake/sequel? I'm talking everything. Tv shows, songs, movies, cars etc. Is there no remaining originality. I went to see a movie last weekend and in it I saw a preview for "The Shaggy Dog" starring Tim Allen as the title character. Didn't this movie blow the first time around? Why do we feel the need to continually torture ourselves with things we didn't even enjoy the first time around? I guess the answer to this foolish question is money. Money makes the world go around. Every time an A Fucking Trocious movie such as Scooby Doo makes $100 million at the box office a secret door is opened which allows for a live action remake of the Smurfs. Who would play Papa Smurf you ask? Why Sean Connery of course. Who would play Homo Smurf? I'll bet a sonogram machine you can guess who that would be. You might laugh at how preposterous this sounds, but I guarantee it will happen in the not so distant future. Pretty soon they are going to start remaking best picture winners. Driving Miss Daisy will be remade starring Bernie Mac and Bea Arthur. The Godfather remake will feature Michael Madsen as Don Corleone and Mickey Rourke as Sonny. I figure while they are at it, why not remake classic cereals. I'm talking Legend of Zelda/Super Mario with the split box feature. I'm talking C-3P O's and Frankenberry. Now that is something I would gladly welcome with open arms.

*This post is brought to you by Final Destination 3. The first two Final Destinations weren't crappy enough so we decided to torture you with one more mind blowingly shitty movie.
