Universal, because of obligations to Hasbro, pens writer of such hits as ‘Ace Ventura 2′ for the new Stretch Armstrong Movie. Let the suckage begin.
13th February 2009
Universal Pictures has made a series of deals with Hasbro to adapt board games and toys into big screen movies. Last year the studio signed Ridley Scott to develop a movie based on Monopoly, and just last week they announced that Platinum Dunes was developing a movie based around the Ouija board and Etan Cohen was writing a screenplay for Candyland with Enchanted director Kevin Lima to direct. Variety reports that the studio has signed Steve Oedekerk to write a big screen adaptation of Stretch Armstrong. His filmography is filled with some bad to horrible films, including: The Nutty Professor, Ace Ventura 2: When Nature Calls, Kung Pow: Enter the Fist, Bruce Almighty and the sequel Evan Almighty.
I don’t even know what to say to this. I think Hollywood needs a vacation to clear their head so they can come back with more original ideas.
