Look…Weinsteins…I know your company’s hurting. I know the economy’s doing a number on pretty much everybody these days. But do you really have to sink QUITE so low as to be planning a remake of Scary Movie, WHILE you’re planning the fourth sequel?
That’s right, folks, currently in concurrent development over at the soon to be dead Weinstein Company is the remake of Scary Movie, as well as Scary Movie 5. Considering that the Scary Movie series has brought in more cash than the GDP of some entire countries–well over a whopping seven hundred twenty five million and change–it’s not really a surprise that Weinstein is looking frantically for the biggest cash cow it can milk.
This doesn’t make the news any more palatable, though….
Release dates on either title are still fairly sketchy, but look for them both on the order of pretty soon. The Weinsteins can’t afford much delay….
