grouchomarxist writes "According to CNN the movie 'Revenge of the Nerds' is being remade. Here is the IMDB entry for the remake." I just don't see how this could be good. Unless they let me play Goose ;)

A modern twist on a timeless classic.
70's humped dry, on to the 80's by Sebastopol · 2006-05-01 10:32 · Score: 5, Funny

To paraphrase The Filthy Critic -- http://www.bigempire.com/filthy -- apparently the grassfuckers in Hollywood have humped the 70's dry and there's nothing left to remake, so now they want to ass rape the pop classics of the 80's as well.

I still can't belive they are remaking Superman.

Re:if they remake that song... by Tackhead · 2006-05-01 10:56 · Score: 5, Funny

> I will smash a bunch of glass vases against the outside of the theater, then I'll go in and watch until the song comes on, when I'll bore a hole in the top inside of the theater and jump out of it onto the glass, thereby saving myself from the pain of ever hearing that song again!
Well, since you reminded me of that song, and since I can't get it out of my head anymore either... might as well share the misery.
Clap your hands everybody, and everybody clap your hands.

We come here on Slashdot today, to post bad filk for you!
We got the earbug rhythm, you insensitive clod, that'll make 'em click a mouse to to downward mod.
We got CmdrTaco on the violin, and Hemos and Zonk will be joining in.
We got Goatse guy, with the bunghole red, grits for Natalie Portman, Stephen King is dead,
and there's All Your Base to which we belong, in Soviet Russia when the joke goes wrong,
And just when, for one, you've seen it all, welcome header X-Bender, overlord of all.
So jump on the glass through the hole you've bored, and post a video .torrent onto the board!

On Remakes by HunterZ · 2006-05-01 11:05 · Score: 5, Funny

When I went with my roommates to see Revenge of the Sith in the theater, they showed a trailer for the Spielberg remake of "War of the Worlds". I launched into my typical rant, asking one of my roommates a rhetorical question: "why does the movie industry have to keep making remakes of everything? Why can't they make movies based off of original ideas?"

The following trailer was for the movie "Stealth". We laughed and shook our heads at the absurdity of it, and when it finished my roommate said (in reply to my previous questions): "that's why."
