You know, I may be in the minority, but I actually enjoyed the LA movies back in the day. Broderick really sold the role for me, since he already has a somewhat goofy and inept personality to begin with. (See also- The Producers, Ladyhawke, Beuller....) TBH, I'd be curious to see who they would actually have play Gadget now. So, sure, why the hack not- Go, go Gadget remake!

Age-up Penny and have Chloe Moretz play her and you'll have my attention, if not my interest.

I can't disagree with that.

Is that why we're interested? Not because she's a Kick-Ass actress?

Ba dum tish.

She was the one and only reason that the Carrie remake wasn't a complete waste of time.

Wait, SHE was Carrie in the remake? I didn't know that.

So, a terrible remake with a great lead?

It's actually alright except for the CGI blood.

Not bad at all, just kind of pointless.

What about her in that "Let the Wrong One In" or whatever remake?

Don't know about this remake. If I saw the last live action one (I might've) then I don't remember it. I bet they still show Dr. Claw's face in it.

Yep yep. That's also a pretty good movie.

Jokes aside, she's been pretty good in everything I've seen her in. And I generally feel that most women can't really act.

I remember that. Also that statistically somebody must the be the “worst doctor in the world” and people have an appointment to see them tomorrow. I always found that funny.

I don’t agree everything is is backwards though. Sure I’m cynical about some things. We all are. Which is ok. It helps us avoid mistakes or potential danger.

Something that really annoys me is electronic companies purposely releasing devices one way to make “upgrades” shortly after. Like cell phones but even video games do it. I only replace when needed. I’m just saying it’s ridiculous.

Generally though I don’t view things as a big ploy, so to speak. That’s unfair to the world around you imo.

That's why I really like Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm. Seinfeld aged pretty well because a lot of its humor is about daily situations that never stop existing, whether it's in 1991 or 2019.
