Yet another remake: Gilligan's Island

Gilligan's Island is a classic - it worked for that time period. Leave it alone.

Psst, a remake doesn't take anything away from the original... in a lot of cases -- well, most cases -- it makes you appreciate the latter even more.
 
Let's see if the Professor can built a computer out of coconuts, and if Gilligan ruins it before he gets logged on to the internet and blogs about rescue?
 
Another reason to hate Michael Cera.

Who is the audience for this? I grew up with that show, and have no interest in seeing it. What would the average 16-year-old idiot think? Why would they care?

Let's hope it's another false alarm. Seems like there's been talk of a Gilligan film for ages.
 
The technology has advanced so much over the last 40 years that I would think it would be next to impossible to be truly lost on an uncharted island in this day and time.

If it happened to Tom Hanks, it can happen to seven others.

:p

So, I wonder who will shack up with Ginger and Mary Ann?? A modern retelling won't be so innocent.
 
You have got to be kidding me. Can't those idiots in Hollywood come up with anything new?
 
Actually I'm rather surprised they haven't done this one already. Let's see, what hasn't Hollywood rebooted into a movie yet? My Mother the Car (hey, Jerry VanDyke's still alive)? My Three Sons? F-Troop? Hogan's Heroes? I'm Dickens, He's Fenster? (the shows get more un-PC or obscure, or both, as I go)

I could use Rat Patrol, and Baa Baa Black Sheep.
 
Remember Gilligan's Planet? LOL


This is a bad idea, the show was one of great innocence that won't work today.
I don't even think it is proper material for mockery like Brady Bunch was.
 
I just read that they are doing a new "Rockford Files" as well.... It is official Hollyweird has ran out of ideas
 
Yeah, are you kidding? They can add some scary beasts on the island or a cannibal tribe, some sexual tension with the girls, the professor can rig up a wifi coconut tree before the big hurricane hits.

Plus, think about how much better the giant spider in the cave is going to look!!
Woohoo! Is Bob Denver still alive?


Megan Fox as Ginger (or MaryAnn). Just wait. :rolleyes
 
This is GREAT!!! Oh the casting-

John Goodman - The Skipper
Keanu Reeves - Gilligan (Jim Carrey if Keanu is busy)
Gary Oldman - The Professor
Jennifer Love Hewitt - Ginger
Paris Hilton - Mary Anne
Robert Wagner - Thurston Howell III
Morgan Fairchild - Mrs Howell

Oh Yeahhhhh.
