Shit I'm old, I remember manimal :1orglaugh

me 2 :( i liked the show that cat scared me :1orglaugh

he was meant to be able to turn into any animal want he? but only ever did three.

I gotta manimal between my legs. But dont worry, it doesn't bite.

well buying and housing the animals cost. :2 cents: im sure in the movie they will add more :thumbsup

Manimal was great.. now all we need is airwolf

give it time their doing every fucking movie ever made :1orglaugh

i want another Phantasm :2 cents:

Was I just an innocent kid or did hollywood regurgitate the same old "been there, done that already" shit 20-30 years ago too?

no knight rider yet?

There's already been a modern remake for TV. Cancelled after one season in 2009.

Its official - everything that has been needed to be thought of has already been thunk. And, now, this is all that we have left.

Phantasm kicked ass. Unfortunately, they're going to try to sell you Ryan Reynolds as Aquaman before they make a "real" movie - which would be ANY movie that does not have Ryan Reynolds in it. If that doesn't work, they'll continue trying to sell you Ryan Reynolds as any super-hero until it clicks, or until everyone kills themsleves.

Whereas they would have been better off remaking Phantasm with Ryan Reynolds. He would make a good first victim.



Phantasm 2013. Starring Ryan Reynolds as "The Guy Who Dies First". If THAT doesn't scare you, then you're already dead.

Aside: I originally saw Phantasm - and Phantasm II - in the theatre. Yeah - I'm old.
