Splash remake with Channing Tatum as a Merman
 

a remake of Splash is in the works with Channing Tatum and Jillian Bell, this time its gender swapped as Channing Tatum will play a Merman, and Jillian Bell will play the human.

This movie will be utterly ridiculous...I can't wait.

Trump 2016.

If Tatum Merman has a Moose Knuckle, it's gonna be 11/10

Let's second this

Oh please gawds no.... All we need is Channing Tatum attempting to have "dolphin sex" with the female lead. Another classic 80's comedy about to be butchered.

Just imagine the fanfiction this movie can generate.

Its interesting that they are doing a remake rather then a sequel to the original, many years ago there was a sequel to Splash called "Splash, Too" it was a made for TV sequel from Disney in 1988.

As a straight man, I would have sex with Channing Tatum.

Your Jesus avatar made me read this in a sad Willem Dafoe voice.

If you give it a full 48 hours you likely won't have to imagine anything.

Splash?! I didn't see that coming. What's next, Cocoon?

Sold. Count me in.

I suppose this is Little Mermaid all over again?

Brace yourself for Channing Tatum naked scene transformation.

Where, instead of elderly people, it's terminally ill horny teenagers.:P

Does a merman have a dick? I'm asking for a friend.

Lame, I hope it bombs badly.

Or Mannequin. :lol::P

Depends on the merman. :lol:

I'm not in favour of a remake either. The original was perfect and has aged well.

Can this be a reverse ghostbusters? Will the most politically divisive movie of 2017 be a f*cking Splash remake?

1983...a merman I should turn to be.

Ok so I got bored last night and watched this. Cute and kind of cheesy but not too bad all things cobsidered. One thing I noticed was the music- the movie borrowed heavily from the score to Secret of NIHM and other films. Specifically when they steal the dolphin at the end, it is the same piece of music from the scene in SoN when the rats are trying to save the cemebt block house from sinking in the mud. I recognized the music almost instantly. But the weird thing is that wasn't even a Disney movie. It was Don Bluth.....

Whoa, I just had a crazy notion. Why don't they make it a sequel where Tatum is the offspring of Tom Hanks and Daryl Hannah's characters from the original? Then of course it'd pretty much be a live action version of The Little Mermaid 2, but with a male lead instead.
