Mrs. White Doesn't Understand
When it was announced a while ago by Satan that the legendary classic comedy Clue would get murdered by HELLywood in a remake, I screamed, I cried and I died. Then I told myself that this shit will never happen, because God won't let it. Well, I was wrong, because a director was just hired. A real director.
Variety (via Coming Soon) reports that Gore Verbinski will helm the guillotine which Clue lays in. Gore has directed the Pirates of the Caribbean movies and The Ring. Universal said they will turn Clue into "a global thriller and transmedia event that uses deductive reasoning as its storytelling engine."
What in the singing telegram fuckery is this?! A global thriller? The shit takes place in one mansion during one night! Fuckness. And it's a LOLcomedy not a thriller! They are totally going to make Mr. Boddy go on the lamb (typo, but lambs are cute) Bourne-style. Madeline Kahn is weeping from heaven.
All I can say is that hearing this mess makes me feel "flam - flames. Flames, on the side of my face, breathing-breath- heaving breaths. Heaving breath..."

OCTOMOMMY STRIKES AGAIN!!!
Finally! February Highlights #1!
FUCK YOU, WMG!!!
Well they won't get one dime out of me. The old one was the shit and still kicks ass.
I imagine this new one will be full of CGI crap.
My sister and me watched this movie non-stop when we were kids. We still to this day (20 yrs later?) will text message quotes from the movie. I'll be cuttin some bitches if Hollywood fucks this up.
OK, WTFF is going on here? This is one of my all time Fav movies and he better not Fuck it up! don't they have any new idaaahaas in HooLLywood??? Walk away right now!
Clue is the one movie I have on my IPOD. Gore better not fuck it up
i shit u not i must have watched this movie 100 times w/ my cousin when i was younger.LOVE IT!
I HAD TO STOP HER SCREAMING!!!
I too joined today to express my OUTRAGE about the news of a Clue remake. My brother and I have had the movie memorized since we were wee ones.
"One plus two plus two plus one"
I also remember begging my mom to give me money to see all three alternative endings at the theatre, and when the movie came out on video, (yes, dating myself here) I felt robbed and thrilled at the same time that all endings were together.
PS-I too say "Flames, heaving Flames" when I am trying to say I am upset about something. :)
Although I read DListed everyday, I today joined DListed just so I can scream NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! about the Clue remake. I have this movie memorized and Madeline Kahn is indescribably perfect. Damn them to hell.
Flames on the side of my face has been short-hand for me when I'm really irritated every since I saw 'Clue'. And Madeline Kahn was a comic genius.
__________
I wish it was like the 70's and it was still ok to kick someone's ass. Damn
The singing telegram was always my favorite part of that movie...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCjoDDbxeLw
Me and my siblings used to quote that part all the time when we were young.
WHY, JESUS, WHYYYYY!
This is truly fucked up. STOP with the remakes already, leave the classics alone.
OMG I would die if they remade "Earth Girls Are Easy"....NOOOOOOO dont do it.
@Johnnysgirl....it's SWEET MYSTERY of life
Yes unfortunately she did die in 1999. I loved her, she was fabulous in everything she did. Especially funny in High Anxiety, Mel Brooks loved her.
"Ohhhhhhhhhh sweet miracle of life at last I've found yooooooooooooooooo..."
I sure miss you, Madeline Kahn.

Anger, hatred and bitterness are the three things my doctor told me I was full of after getting my blood test results. -MK
Madeline Kahn is dead?? I think she is one of those dead people I always forget is dead.
This makes me want to fucking slit my wrists and possibly even my vadge.
What kind of bullshit fuckery is this!?!?
Original Movie is (and will be) the best.. ever!
Noone can top Madeline Kahns craziness
and Leslie Anne Warrens slutty and bitchy attitude.
GAH.
WHYYYYYYY!!!!!!!
The original was so damn campy and funny. I doubt any remake will stick with that, its gonna be blood and guts.
Men should be like Kleenex, soft, yet strong, and disposable -- Mrs. White
BLASPHEMY! How could they do this!?! I am feeling the flames on the side my face too MK. This is one of the best quotable movies. I use the flames quote all the time too - best line ever.
Please tell me Lesley Ann Warren will be back as Miss Scarlet? A remake won't be the same without her overacting!
hey hollywood?
FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!

Better Living Through Chemicals!
" I am your singing telegram..."
I sing this in my head at least three times a week. I think it has something to do with the gunshot that follows...
xoxoxoxo
hugs y'all.
This ain't my first rodeo, cowboy.
I will never forgive Madeline Kahn for dying. She was just the best - no woman in Hollywood today can match her for comedic genius.
Young Frankenstein - that's Frankensteen.
"Oh Sweet Mystery of Life At Last I've Found You". Pure gold.
That is THE best line from that movie - good call Michael K! Watch the clip on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92IkddsjtAA&NR=1
It's classic! So sad they're gonna mess it up.
No one can play Wadsworth but Tim Curry.
Watch them get Seth Rogan for the role.
Gore is not a good director. That fucker got lucky about four times with 4 shitty movies. Another childhood rapist.

Seems like no one in Hollyweird has an original thought anymore. They shove the same old actors at us and now its going to be redone movies.
No!! No Fucking WAy!! I HATE Hollywood!! Nobody has any imagination anymore, they're doing remakes and butchering all the great movies!! This sucks indeed. Im over it.
Screw the other bitches. Yvette and her bodacious tatas ruled this movie.
Reason #428 that I adore MK: He loves Clue.
Hubby thinks I'm a looney because I worship this movie. I constantly quote it and my favorite quote of all is "flames...on the side of my face....burning..." with the hand motions and everything.
Now I totally have to go watch it again.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We're talking about pissing during fucking and she tries to be all polite-like. - MK
"And monkey's brains, though popular in Cantonese cuisine, are not often to be found in Washington D.C.!!"
The best line from a movie ever!!!
TimB should have done it, w/Johnny and Helena. =) and Chirstina Ricci..
yeah the first one suxd except for Tim :)
><)))))*>
My absolute favourite MK lines from clue:
Col: "How many husbands have you had?"
MK: "Mine or somebody else's?"
Col: "Yours"
MK: "Five, just the five"
I often answer ridiculous questions at work with "Five, just the five". No one has even gotten it. No one ever gets me :(
and I agree with the Madeline Kahn love here. She rocked..."I hate her sooo much...flames...flames"
LOL I still say that too.
She also rocked it in Blazing Saddles. Another classic that should never be touched.
sigh....hollywood blows. this is a classic and they are going to FUCK IT UP ROYALLY
Oh I don't care, the first one was terrible anyway!
http://www.artbybillie.net
I still can't believe Madeline Kahn is dead. It's such a shame! She rocked and she was so young.
THIS IS OBSCENE FUCKERY! I went to see Clue THREE TIMES in the theater so I could view all the endings. I went through EIGHT COPIES of it on VHS, and TWO DVDs! I can quote the entire movie verbatim. Last Halloween, my friends and I rented a McMansion and acted out our own version.
And now this...this DEFILEMENT! *shakes fist at sky*
Miss Scarlet was right, most men DO need a little practice: PRACTICE AT MAKING NEW MOVIES AND NOT MURDERING BELOVED CLASSICS!
OMG, Hollywood, FUCK YOU!!!
~-*+*-~
"Tact is just not saying true stuff. I'll pass." ~ Cordelia Chase
First of all, I have to say I am so in love with Michael K and all the other posters who quote 'flames on the side of my face...' OMG. My friend and I whip out that line any time someone pisses us off. Second, NO! NO! NO! I am tired of Hollywood re-making and screwing up movies I love. This is why I just don't go to the movies anymore. I would rather stay home and watch videos.
Lane, I have been going to this high school for 7 years. I'm no dummy.

First LOL@ your comment
Second... last nite I was chatting with my best Friend who lives in mexico and I was trying to tell her that Dave was my favorite stand up comedian, she said, Send me a pic I dont remember them by names, only by face , I google it and the first one it appeared was your avie.. I, like an idiot say out loud: Graprefruit!, sorry It was too stupid, I had to share it.
He Dicho! caso cerrado!!
I assume by Clue you're talking about Cluedo...never knew it got made into a film, a bloomin' class looking film at that! *goes off to download the Cluedo film*
I hate Hollywood.
Mike ~....I like your new avie! Reminds me of a black light poster I had.
If they are going to make this crapfest, then it should be updated and include new ways to die:
* Death by Drive By Gang Banger Shooting
* Death by Salmonella poisoning
* Death by Meth Lab explosion
My question is:
Why does the devil always get blamed for fuckery?
The devil doesn't do this kind of shit! The morons in Hollywood do and they are no fiends of mine! (haha typo, but like MK says, it stays!)
If Tim Curry blesses this, then I'll give it at least half a chance. Otherwise FUCK NO!

I've never seen the movie, but I was under the impression it was shitty.
I never liked the board game as a kid. I was always so bored that I'd end up cheating.
I've always suspected my computer felt like a calculator on the inside.

what is a "transmedia event"?
------------------
Maybe online video clues and shit.
I can't wait for the Casablanca remake starring Jennifer Love Hewitt and Ryan Gosling!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
CROCS are made in the devil's workshop. Yes, they are!
By "transmedia event," does this mean my laptop will come dressed as a blackberry?
turn Clue into "a global thriller and transmedia event that uses deductive reasoning as its storytelling engine."
what is a "transmedia event"?
I still have this on VHS from when I taped it off of cable when it was first on. I bought the DVD this year. Classic, classic, classic, Hollywood is crap and nothing good will come of this. Remember The Women? I rest my case. "You can't make a cake without breaking eggs, every cook will tell you that, But look what happened to the cook".
