The Dukes and The Bandit
I heard on the radio that Burt Reynolds, The Bandit himself, is also in the Dukes of Hazzard movie, with Jessica Simpson, and whoever else they've chosen to make a mockery out of a classic television show. After hearing the rumors of Ashton Kutcher playing one of the Duke boys, I was feeling a little screwed over. But maybe Burt can help make this big screen remake not suck. Jessica Simpson looks amazing, but I don't picture her as Daisy. She's too sweet. Daisy is supposed to be "white trash" sexy. Not a big deal though. If they make the movie an action/comedy like Starsky & Hutch, it better be more action than comedy. That's all I'm sayin'. I don't want to see clown versions of cool characters. But if the Ashton Kutcher rumors are true...it's too damned late.
Au contraire, mon frere! Fear not! Ashton Kutcher is nowhere near this movie (thank God!). Here's the main cast:
ReplyDeleteSeann (two n's. precious) William Scott .... Bo Duke
Johnny Knoxville .... Luke Duke
Jessica Simpson .... Daisy Duke
Burt Reynolds .... Boss Hogg
Willie Nelson .... Uncle Jesse
All I needed to see was "Johnny Knoxville." I luff him.
