Warner Brothers Remaking The Bodyguard


Warner Brothers has decided to go back in time and resurrect one of their biggest hits ever. Instead of coming up with something fresh and new, Warner Brothers is going to rewrite The Bodyguard in hopes that it will be just as big of hit as the first time around. The first one starred Kevin Costner and Whitney Houston. I'm guessing this one will go more youthful to try and get a new generation involved. That movie was Whitney in her prime. She had the drugs under control enough to where she could still sing like almost no one ever has. The problem with that movie besides Kevin Costner is that it gave rise to singers thinking they could act and studios rolling the dice with them. How do you think Mariah and Britney got movies. "It's the next Bodyguard."

I wish they would remake My Bodyguard. That movie could be remade into something much better than the original which was nice, but a new updated version could be a little darker and edgier. I think that one starred Rudy from Meatballs. Yeah, you know the kid with no friends who Bill Murray friends. Now that was a great movie.
