This Movie Is Secretly Begging To Be Remade!

For those old enough to remember this was one of those "Late Late Show" movies that used to run on TV at around 11:30PM after the news that gained an audience after their initial release. The question is who would you cast in a new version? When Claire Danes was burning hot from "My So-Called Life" she was my fantasy casting for the Jodie Foster Role. Jennifer Lawrence might be a good pick today. Who else?

"Foxes" is one of those movies that in the right hands could be great. It wasn't a big hit and kinda went under the radar.

Think what Soderberg did with a mediocre film like "Ocean's Eleven". He turned that thing on it's ear!

You are so right about that! I love the Rat Pack with Sinatra, Sammy and Dean but the original Ocean's Eleven was just plain ole' boring. The remake with Clooney, Pitt, Cheadle, Damon, etc. was absolutely on point! Its in this rare instance that the remake was far superior than the original. nod

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

Yeah I see how I could have interpreted "remade" differently. Hot Tub #2 is the same premise as Hot Tub #1, but instead they go into the future rather than the past ... similar to Back To The Future #2. So it's not really a continuation like most sequels, well it is and it isn't. lol

But do watch Hot Tub #1 if you can, it's pretty funny!
