Remake! Peter Jackson to direct!


NOT!

But what if...?

Well, lessee. There could be Will Ferrell or Adam Sandler as Stannie Dum and Jack Black as Ollie Dee, Lindsay Lohan as Bo-Peep, Zac Efron as Tom-Tom, Glenn Close or Helen Mirren as Widow Peep, Ewan McGregor as Barnaby--and Mel Gibson as King of the Bogeymen!

I'm sure there are other suggestions, too.

Lindsay?? Maybe 5 years ago. How about Hayden Panettiere?

Please, please don't mention Will Ferrell's name when discussing a remake of one of my most beloved movies.

They better not remake this movie. If they do, I will be so mad.

Not Jackson. It's sure to be Tim Burton with Johnny Depp as Barnaby!

Or Johnny Depp as Bo Beep.

I shouldn't be in the least surprised.

i was thinking Jim Carrey for Barnaby - a remake would be interesting with todays technology, especially for the wooden soldiers. As for the bogeymen - gotta love those fuzzy suits with the skimpy hula skirts! lol - probably helped make it less frightening for young kids).

Taylor Swift would make a cute Bo Peep. Clay Aiken would make a cute Tom Tom, gay or whatever (Tom Tom wasn't the portrait of masculinity with those green tights but he could sing!)

Joel McHale or DJ Qualls could be a potential Stannie Dum. As for Ollie - Jack Black is pretty funny, so is Rainn Wilson.



For the record, I love Johnny Depp and will watch anything he is in.
