Robert Rodriguez to Shoot "The Jetsons" in 2010

[JudynTX]

:bang FML!! Leave my cartoon alone!

Having said that, who should play all the characters? :lol


Word is its been in the works for awhile now. And currently its slated for a 2012 release. You can read it here, and the stuff about a movie has even made it to the wikipedia page (here). And guess who is said to be helming it? Robert Rodriguez. Yep...and its to be a live action film too.

As a kid, The Flinstones and The Jetsons were my favourite shows to watch...oh and the 90's X-men series as well. Never did mind watching an episode again and again...they were after all in constant reruns on Cartoon Network. Funny how its about families living way back in the past and in the future...maybe the present wasn't all that great? Anyhow the Flinstones had two live action films...and they were...err...not good...the second was worst. I'm thinking there's a chance that the Jetsons could be fun. Futuristic movies have always held people's interest. Mostly we have seen the action based or dystopian future movies...maybe its time we see a fun adventure (family friendly?) flick? The costumes would certainly be something to watch won't it?

From Wiki -

Live-action future film

In May 2007, director Robert Rodriguez entered talks with Universal Studios and Warner Bros. to film a live action film adaptation of The Jetsons for a potential 2009 theatrical release. He had also met with Universal Studios to direct a film adaptation of Land of the Lost. Rodriguez was uncertain which project he would pursue next, though the latest script draft for The Jetsons by assigned writer Adam Goldberg was further along in development.[8] Denise Di Novi and Donald De Line have signed on to produce the film, with Hanna-Barbera Productions financing it. In January 2009, the film was pushed back to 2012.

IMHO, this is just another sign that Hollywood is out of original ideas. Besides the Jetsons were blondes so a brunette hottie will have to go blonde.

[Richard Cranium]

this will only be good if they get john goodman to play george

Yeah, he was great in The Flintstones!!

[Richard Cranium]

Lindsay Lohan better shoot off her resume real quick for this one!!

[koriwhat]

devito for cosmo spacely!

[sonic21]

I loved the Jetsons when I was a kid, but frankly a movie adaptation just sounds like a horrible idea. the only way the Jetsons should be revived is as a cartoon if at all, and then only on tv, not the silver screen.

:nope He failed in Speed Racer.

How about Jim Carrey as George? :D

[tp2021]

My failure senses are more than tingling.

My failure senses are more than tingling.

If they keep it as a cartoon, it might not fail. Live-action = fail

[Wild Cobra]

Well, good or bad, I will definitely have to add it to my DVD collection when it's released.

[ChumpDumper]

ChumpDumper to not watch The Jetsons in 2012.

He needs to get back to what made his films so likeable back in the day: showing Salma Hayek's tits.

[CuckingFunt]

Fuck the Jetsons.

Until Machete and Sin City's sequel are released, I don't want to hear about any other Rodriguez projects.

[Leetonidas]

Robert Rodriguez sucks balls.

[Bukefal]

devito for cosmo spacely!

Lol yeah, that character is 100% devito :lol

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

Hard to figure out how he'll shoe horn Danny Trejo in there though. The future was awfully white according to the cartoon.

[METALMiKE]

Lol yeah, that character is 100% devito :lol

:tu :tu

[koriwhat]

i second that... except the 1 room he directed in the movie four rooms. pure brilliance!

[phyzik]

I honestly cant see what people like about Sin City.... Probably the worst acted movie of the 21st century so far. The acting FUCKING SUCKED!!! get over Jessica Alba already.

most overrated movie of the 21st century imo.

[ShoogarBear]

Antonio Banderas as George
Carla Guigino as Jane
Alex Vega as Judy
Mickey Rourke as Elroy
Salma Hayek as Rosie the Robot . . . wait that one's actually a damn good idea.

Jessica Alba as a stripper was probably a reason for most. Yum.

For me personally, Carla Gugino naked was a plus. :toast

[tlongII]

Horrible idea for a movie.

I rented Sin City, did not finish watching it.

[Leetonidas]

I stole Sin City from my ex-roommates with the intent to take it to CD Exchange because they owed me a fuck load of cash and never paid...but then I watched it and I thought it was okay. Agree though, the acting is TERRIBLE. Especially Clive Owen.
