JLo Is Going Overboard In More Ways Than One

JLo's career has pretty much fallen overboard, and now she's taking a gem from the 80s with it! The Hollywood Reporter (via Coming Soon) is saying that JLo will star in a remake of the 1987 Goldie Hawn/Kurt Russell movie Overboard.

JLo will play the role of a stuck-up, "short fat slut" socialite who falls off her yacht, gets a case of amnesia and is taken in by a hillbilly carpenter with ulterior motives. JLo's ass and ego will share the role of the yacht.

You know, I'd be okay with this if it was a reality show based on Overboard and we got to watch as someone pushed JLo off a boat. Like for real. But sadly, it isn't so let's all scream "NOOOOO!!" as we throw ourselves off the side.

Way to RUIN a CLASSIC. WTF can't Hollywood come up with any original ideas anymore?

Not since the HIDEOUS remake of "The Stepford Wives" have I been such a crabapple.

This shit really pisses me off. For real...

Is there anyway we can protest the remake? A petition or something? How can we empower ourselves?

She can't act. I feel real sorry for the kids that will have to act alongside her and also pretend to be her children. NO to remake!

God damn Hollywood is L-A-Z-Y! Stop remaking, do something new for cripes sake. Oh wait I forgot, we are talking about Hollywood here...meh...

misskitty's picture

Noooooooooooooooo! Overboard is one of my fave movies ever! Definately my fave rom com and they are going to ruin it with j lo? Can someone just nuke hollywood? Seriously. Nuke them all off the planet, the loser producers and directors and the writers that apparantly cannot really write anything original and all the dumb starlets that cannot act and only excel in starving themselves. OY!

Lane, I have been going to this high school for 7 years. I'm no dummy.

Apparently Hollyweird hasn't woken up to the fact that JLo CAN'T ACT. She can't sing either, for chrissakes.

this news isn't even funny...jlo needs to raise those babies and stop fucking with me...

Kurt Russell for President though, for real.

Gigi-A-GoGo's picture

can't we start a petition? Doesn't Jlo have an original movie scripts to act horribly in? This movie is an 80s classic? Why?????

Can't we pay her money NOT to make the movie?

How much does she make per movie these days? All we need is 10 million people to give a dollar?

Don't do it Jlo! Don't do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I love that movie! Doesn't j-blow have kids to take care of?

WTFOMGLOL, and the sad part is that nobody's said that to JeLo in real life because it's SO true.

Love, love, love this movie. I am pretty sure my parents still have the VHS because we rented it in 1988 or so and never returned it. *Shameface*

TheBreakdown's picture

I have always had a soft(and sometimes hard) spot in my heart for Goldie Hawn. She's that MILF you could hang out with and share a spliff with.

But then again, her daughter is no match for her and that hasn't managed to stop her ass from ruining film after film after film.

Which brings us to JHo, who is an entirely different story!

I predict travesty all around.

And what the fuck is Marc Anthony doing in this?

Meth in the woods as a theme?

Hmmm

what is the point in redoing this movie??? it was so great the first time around. goldie hawn was awesome and perfect in it.

JLo is like Julia Roberts, just annoying and not that talented.

JLo is NO Goldie Hawn. Goldie Hawn is down to earth and cool. Years I go, I was at the hot Springs pool in Glenwood Springs, Colorado. She, Kurt Russell and a bunch of teen aged boys (I am assuming their son and friends of his) were there. They were super low key, no diva stuff, acted like any other family enjoying the pool.

i L-O-V-E that scene in "overboard" where Katherine Helmond is lying in bed and tells Joanna, "Darling, if you HAVE a baby--you won't BE the baby anymore." Fucking classic.

No one can top Katherine Helmond. NO ONE.

Life's a jest, and all things show it/I thought so once, but now I know it.

My sis and I quote this movie all the time.

"Why don't we all smoke?"
"I don't smoke. I've never smoked. Why is everyone always trying to tell me what to do."
"Shut up, Grant. Nobody cares about your therapy."
"I had my nervous breakdown, and I didn't have therapy. I never had therapy."

The psychiatrist is hilarious. So is the mom.

"But, darling...if you have a baby, you won't *be* the baby anymore."

NOOO!
Overboard's storyline is terrible and Goldie Hawn is treated like shit as Joanna. But the clothes and deco are Fabulous.

Guess they 'll keep the storyline and change the clothes.

Reeter's picture

I really like Goldie and Kurt, but OverBoard was not a very good movie. Why remake that??

Whamo's picture

Is Hollywood that hurting for movie ideas? I mean it wasn't even a big box office hit anyway. They should do a remake of Jlo's career. You might as well write the reviews now as I'm sure nobody needs to see this piece of shit to know it's going to suck donkey balls.

little_rascal's picture

The only movie she was really good in was "Selena" about the killed Tejano singer. I watched it so many times.

She should go and raise her twins, redecorate her mansions and enjoy her $$$ millions.

I'm so sick of Hollywood doing remakes. Pretty soon they will be doing remakes of the remakes.

Another bomb for JLO. Nobody gives a shit about seeing her play a "socialite."

The first Overboard was good, stop messing with my childhood.

"You know what your problem is?, You are so goddamn bored, you have to invent things to bitch about. You don't have a single thing to do on this earth, except for your hair. The closet was fine. you just needed something to fill up your useless, nail polishing, toe polishing, rich bitch, sun tanning days."

Best line in the whole movie. Kurt Russell was still quite a hunk back in them days.

Is the recession so bad that even creativity has been sucked out of Hollywood?

IMO it's probably more a case of audience demographic. More tickets are sold to kids or the 14-early 20s crowd who haven't seen any of the originals that are being remade, so these shit remakes are "new" to the audience. Look for "The Three Musketeers" starring the Jonas Bros. any day now.

Wait, I just remembered this is J-Ho, which means this idea will probably bomb before she even has a chance to shoot it.
