The Bewitched Movie

[Jumbo_Holden]

Not sure anyone will care, but you may have heard theres a movie version of Bewitched coming June 2005. Have a look at the below poster and the website. http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/bewitched

I know what you'll be thinking, and for those interested by this stage your going to be disapointed when you see the movie
(ive read the scprit), wonder if i'll need to explain anything if someone elese already knows

[Faustus]

Please say this is a lie.

I dream of a system where in order to make a remake or TV2Moviethe stuidio must call me. Talk to me about it and convince me it should be done. Without my approval, no go. So many tears would be saved this way.

[Jumbo_Holden]

Please say this is a lie..

No lie, I wish it was becuase I know excally what the contents of the film is

[Capmaster]

Here's a list of 1950's, 1960's and 1970's sitcoms and cartoons that should be released as features. These are all from my youth and they wouldn't be any worse than what's already been released in the last 5 years. The studios could clean up with all the material that's just sitting in a dusty studio archive room :

My Mother The Car
Speed Racer Cartoon
Clutch Cargo (tgpo could do this one)
Ozzie And Harriet (of course a different Ozzie and Harriet, and kids ...)
Donna Reed - The Movie
Father Knows Best - The Movie
December Bride
Bachelor Father
Hawaiian Eye
77 Sunset Strip
That's My Mama
Captain Kangaroo
Tom And Jerry
Bullwinkle The Moose
Yogi Bear (and Boo Boo)

What about it Hollywood? Maybe a little kickback to Capmaster for the suggestion? 8)

Non of you have any idea what this movie is do you, Alot of people are going to be very disapointed when they go to see it

You all think its another TV-Show movie, Like The adams family, brady bunch etc movies before it.. right??

It should be. but this one ain't

[Capmaster]

Non of you have any idea what this movie is do you, Alot of people are going to be very disapointed when they go to see it

That's why I don't plan to ever see it

[Jumbo_Holden]

Well, does it have anything to do with Darren, Samantha, Maurice, Larry and Louise Tate, Endora, Uncle Arthur, Tabitha, Adam, etc.?

[BJ_M]

77 Sunset Strip

im really suprised they have not brought this one back ..

[Jumbo_Holden]

you are all missing the point, the film 'YOU THINK' it will be is what I WANT it to be

Well, does it have anything to do with Darren, Samantha, Maurice, Larry and Louise Tate, Endora, Uncle Arthur, Tabitha, Adam, etc.?

Samantha, Darrin, Endora, Uncle Arthur ...sort of, but not in the way yo'll be thinking

Maurice, Larry and Louise Tate, Tabitha, Adam ... NO

[Capmaster]

Father Knows Best

being done also -- hahahaha

I was being sarcastic ....and they actually made one

Gee everyone ...ya think Hollywood has run out of material?

Naaahhh. :P

Aah, well thats your wrong you see, This is aimed at ''Oh god not another TV show remake" people like you

You'll like It.

I only watched the first one because of Liz. I think every boy my age had a serious crush on her and Barbara Eden 8)

[Jumbo_Holden]

Its funny, becuase everyone will think/ like you all are now
"'Oh its a brady bunch/adams family movie style remake"


I wish they were doing it like that, but it could'nt further from what this movie is

[Tommyknocker]

You want to give us any details, or are you going to stay with the "Oh you shoulda seent it!" act?

[Jumbo_Holden]

OK, OK lets see if can get your heads around it

Its set in present day LA and a real Witch named Isabel (Kidman) comes to live in the mortal world and meets actor Jack Wyatt (Farrell) who asks her to play Samantha in the TV-remake of Bewitched he is due to star in (him as Darrin)

apart from when there filming 'Bewitched' it's a Sleepless In Seatle style romantic comedy between Jack & Isabel. Shirley Maclaine plays 'Iris' and actress who plays Endora on the tv show within the movie

You get the picture???

[Tommyknocker]

I never should have asked. Big letdown. Think I'll see what else is playing. Thanks.

[Jumbo_Holden]

SEE excally, people are going to so disapointed


what you thought of 1st is the movie, I wanted and hope in another 10 years time. Somone does

[ViRaL1]

Didn't they already make a (bad) Bullwinkle movie too?

[Jumbo_Holden]

Didn't they already make a (bad) Bullwinkle movie too?

Yes, that was a TV-Show within a movie idea aswell. That worked slighty tho unlike tihs movie

[Tommyknocker]

I think they let a good idea get away. I still remember all the figures from history dropping by the Stevenses: Caesar reading in the encyclopedia about his fate rushing down to City Hall to have the story about him removed. Da Vinci inventing a toothpaste for kids, Willy Mays stopping by for a drink before teleporting himself to the ball park. Darrin asking Samantha, Is he really..?" and Samantha answering, "The way he hits home runs, are you kidding?" Oh well, that's Hollywood for you. Think I'll wait another ten years, too.

[spiderman2k1]

I do like the TV show. So I might see it who knows.

Im a hardcore, how do you think I feel Tho its 50/50 between us hardcores. Half like it, the other half Detest it

the orginal concept, and scprit (ive read that aswell) was sort of prequel to the show and I loved that one thought it was brillant. But Nora Ephon (Sleepless In Seattle / You've Got Mail) came forward with her 'orginal 'concept and they went with her idea

The 1st scprit that got accepted then thrown out would of been almost orgasmic for me to watch on screen

[Capmaster]

Hey Jumbo - Are you old enough to remember the original series run? I'm just wondering if you watched it to see Liz or if you started up later.

It was a good show ....very clever, and the nosy neighbor (Gladys Kravetz?) was brilliantly played.

I might end up seeing it just out of curiosity ...just to see what the fuss is about. That's the only reason I saw several movies ....some were pleasant surprises, and some just reinforced my original prejudices

[Rookie64]

kind of ironic that the show Bewitched was a take off of a much older movie, I married A Witch


These type of movies aren't the sort of thing I get into - I don't think I've seen any of the movie parodies they started doing in last ten years or so.
They're ok in a comedy skit, but a full-length movie just doesn't work for me.

They don't even do decent remakes of older movies - the new version of
Stepford Wives was a very bad idea :P

They had a few hideous made for TV spinoffs of that as well.

[Tommyknocker]

I think it still is in syndication, so he may be able to still watch them.

[Jumbo_Holden]

Nope becuase I'm only 21. Im just out to prove that only a few very open minded people will like the movie

Im hoping to god, the attitude will be ''why could'nt it be a direct remake" when its released, and that it might encorage them to try it again

I remember that movie as well. The drunken father in law was a riot. I think he ended up being locked inside a bottle of booze, happier than a dead pig in the sunshine.

I guess I read the tone of your posts wrong then. It sounded to me like you were advocating the movie. Actually some posts did and others didn't

So you don't like it and are telling us you don't recommend it?

[Jumbo_Holden]

Yeah I know I Married A Witch well ive got it on home made DVD

You don't realise Im 21, straight and english and therefore a rare breed ...a Bewitched hardcore and know everything. Bewitched was created my merging elements of I Married Witch and Bell, Book & Candle
