You shouldn't have that subject line. She would only like to star at this point.

That being said, please, movie gods, don't let her get the role of Carrie. She's wrong for it on every level.

They could probably make her ugly with makeup and whatever, like Charlize Theron in that one movie, I forget the name.

That said, this is a bizarre choice.

Monster wasn't quite the same.

Maybe if Fox knocks out a few teeth, wears a fat suit, has some Rick Baker makeup plastered to her face...blah blah blah...

The point is her Dull Surprise. Carrie needs to be played by a good actor. Maybe Dakota Fanning under a bit of makeup.

Didn't they already make a remake/second adaptation with a more upbeat ending?

[up][up]I think that was the TV Movie. The one that was meant to be the pilot for a series. But I could be mistaken.

[up][up]Ah, that's it, the made for TV version.

[up]I think those were separate. IIRC Carrie 2 followed a completely different girl and the version I'm thinking was about Carrie, just not with Sissy in the role.

There was another made for TV...

Oh yeah the one in the 2000's. Yeah you're right. Sorry. Was confused.

MGM is trying to make money at this point, not lose it.

Anyway, I'm surprised that Megan Fox hasn't gotten one of those deals that 50 Cent has where he releases a straight-to-DVD movie every few months. That way you are forgotten about but you still make money.

Why?

No seriously, why? I doubt many people are going to be excited by the remake of a 70's horror movie that never spawned a franchise. It seems like the studio is just throwing away money.

That said, it's a terrible idea even if people would see it.

Oh my lord. This is just a stunt for hard cash. I thought they already remade Carrie, I can't help but feel its going to be all hip and junk.

It could be bad. It could be good. They aren't going to burn every copy of the original book and movie if this gets made, so why care about a possibly bad adaption?

If this does happen, at least there will be comedy value in the movies attempts to make Megan Fox seem like someone who would be bullied and unpopular amongst highschoolers.

If there is anything of value I can get from this news, it's that I should read Screenrants more often!

[up] Don't let your hormones delude you, Robbie! They're trying to pass off Megan Fox as Sissy Spacek.

I'll think I'll re-read the book and watch the original before seeing the trailer to this remake.
