Idiots, although I didnt see the movie and doubt it was as good as the original, the Karate Kid remake cleaned up at the box offices.
According to new sources, it didn't do bad and exceeded expectations that they are already preparing for a second one.

I don't have the hatred that most everyone else on the planet above the age of puberty has for Bieber. I think the kid's simply having fun, and he's not in the tabloids for snorting coke off Lohan's ass, so I don't see the problem.
That said, this makes me ill.

That's the thing. If Justin stuck to music he'd be fine in his one little world... But much like 50 Cent he over estimates his talents, and people want to cash in on his fame so they get jobs that they should have NEVER been given in movies.
Regardless, Back to the Future does not need a remake! The original trilogy is perfect! Why fix something that's not broken?!
Some of these tv executives need to get slapped in the face!They need to start working on original ideas instead of trying to remake every movie out there.

But it's cheaper to remake movies because they already own the movie rights... And people run out to see it.
It's the same BS with 3D movies. They pay a little extra to convert them to 3D (instead of shot in 3D) and people run out to see it, then wonder why it doesn't look good.
thats because of "Wax on, Wax off" ?
as opposed to Chan saying "Jacket On! Jacket Off!" to a 10 year old boy?
Alright... last I heard Justin Bieber denied this rumor... We'll see..
though he DID say he'd like to remake "Grease" with him and Miley Cyrus... barf!

HBO’s hit TV series True Blood recently concluded its 3rd season and now its makers have something else in mind, besides a 4th season chock-full of freaky violence and naked vampires – a full-length movie.
Work has begun on the task of bringing True Blood to the big screen, which would likely not happen until after at least another season of the show has aired. Series creator Alan Ball is reportedly eying the film adaptation as a potential directing vehicle for himself.
True Blood is well known for its edgy tone and adults-only content – a quality that the show’s cover for a recent edition of Rolling Stone magazine not-so-subtly alluded to. Cable television series are not subject to the rating regulations that govern public access shows and have developed a reputation for (at times) going out of their way to include explicit and graphic material – shows like True Blood or Spartacus: Blood & Sand have both very much earned that rep.
Most HBO shows have high production standards and are virtually cinematic in terms of their design and structure – this week’s new series, Boardwalk Empire being a prime example. True Blood is very much a professional production overall and it features numerous in-demand talents both in front and behind the camera. Does the franchise stand to gain anything by making the jump to film (from an artistic perspective and not a financial one, that is)?
A True Blood movie would likely focus more on the show’s main characters – especially that of Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin) and her vampiric lover Bill Compton (Stephen Moyer) – and include fewer subplots and supporting players than that of an average 13 episode season. Fans will surely be divided over whether or not that would be a good thing.
Alan Ball is only credited for directing two episodes of True Blood – both from season one – and his sole feature-length film directorial effort was the moderately-received 2007 pic, Towelhead. The Oscar-winning screenwriter of American Beauty is still arguably the ideal candidate for creating a True Blood movie that feels like more than just an entire season of the show that has been edited down to a running time of two to three hours (a la the Sex & the City movies).

Nice!
I've not started the show yet, but I LOVE Alan Ball. I'm waiting on season 3 to start so I can have a nice back-log to get into.
I can't watch shows season by season. It drives me nuts.
