21. Wait...
I agree it looks terrible on the face of it, but Jason Lee is in the middle of a huge amount of success. He has no reason to make a crappy movie right now... I'll reserve judgment for now.

18. Quite right.
It's John Travolta, who has apparently turned Edna Turnblad into a mugging ninny.

I refuse to see this movie, which will undoubtedly be a fugly mess.

Divine must be spinning in his grave.

19. How the fuck are you going to remake a John Waters film?
I mean, I can see making live action movies from old children's cartoons.

I can see remaking old various old comedies and disaster flicks and so on, Godzilla, and the Haunting, and all that shit.

But John Waters movies? That's like remaking Woody Allen movies.
