This Week in Entertainment (April 2012)

The Three Stooges movie comes out this week, made by the guy who made Dumb and Dumber. All the hype about the movies seems to focus on a model dressed as a nun, so I'm not expecting much from it. At least it's got to be better than Snow White and the Three Stooges, huh?

So, this is a thing

Huh.  On the plus side, they released all the Columbia shorts on DVD.  And no Sean Penn.

Edit:  I think I have my fat comedians mixed up.  Disregard previous thing here.

Huh?

You know how when something gets revived, there's always someone who complains about how they ruined old thing with new thing?  That's going to be me if this movie gets made. 

Why a movie?  Why not try to make a 16 minute short and see if your guys have the chemistry the Stooges did?  You have to remember that they developed their act on vaudeville during the 20s, even skipping out on radio like most other comedians of the time.  And I have yet to see a single impersonator get Curly right.  They shave their heads, talk at a high pitch, and act like a child but they never quite get it.


At least Sony finally released all the shorts on those eight DVD sets.

Holy crap! It's about time.

Three Little Spuds

Why didn't I think of this?  Now I know what's going on my birthday wish list!
