Early this week the trailer for the Footloose remake hit the web. The question has to be asked does a remake of a successful film from the ’80s need to be made? Obviously the answer is no. It shows the lack of creativity with Hollywood. That doesn’t mean that remakes / reboots are bad. I think some franchise’s need a good reboot in the ass. Franchise’s become stale, and need a new point of view. Remaking a previous Essential Seven list, here are the Essential Seven Franchise Remakes / Reboots That Worked:
Check out this great poster by Fernando Reza’s titled “Day Jobs”. The print features fictional business cards. The poster has a limited run of 20 S+N 11” x 17” prints are available here for $25 each. My favorite is Art Vandelay card from Vandelay Industries.
For the past seven days we have been counting down the Essential Seven 2009 Hallmark Ornaments. You can order these and other ornaments at Hallmark.com
Television shows always have that special Christmas episode. You know what I’m talking about. It usually involves somebody learning the true meaning of Christmas. A favorite that almost made this list was the Family Ties episode where Alex (Michael J. Fox) is haunted by the ghosts of Christmas past and future to see how his greed would hurt those he loved.
This time of year I like to search through the cable channels and catch all of the different special Christmas episodes. Cheers, Full House, All in the Family, and Frasier are some of my favorites. So I got to thinking, this weeks list would feature the Essential Seven TV Show Christmas Episodes.
I loved last night’s episode of The Office. Jim and Pam finally got married and the cast of the show reenacted the popular YouTube video Wedding Entrance.
