    What happens in Vegas, are you kidding me? No way would I watch that for free, looks like a giant **** of a film.
    If...
    Ron dislikes a film = go out and buy it.
    Ron loves a film = don't even rent.

    I think I'd rather sit in the parking lot than watch either.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    So.. does the live action Speed Racer have the monkey in it?

    I remember that cartoon from my yout'... not overwhelmingly fondly, although I will admit to watching it regularly.

    Now how about a live-action "Gigantor", or "Tobor, the Eighth Man", or even "Astro-Boy"? :-) If nothing else, I think I could still sing the theme songs to all three of those!

    I'm waiting for them to resurrect my all time favorite show as a kid.

    Lancelot Link Secret Chimp. I've recently watched clips on YouTube and I must have been really entertainment starved to think so highly of this show. I certainly could see today's studio's trying to cash in on the nostalgia; like they have been doing most recently with Speed Racer.

    How about a modern day Banana Splits movie :D

    You mean it wasn't as clever as I remember it?

    With the chimp femme fatale named Mata Hairy.
    And the boss named Darwin... LLSC was always saying "What's your theory, Darwin?"

    LLSC, oh man that brings back memories! I watched that all the time. No wonder I'm so effed up in the head. Seeing those monkeys run in and out of those couches with secret compartments is just effing madness!!!
