Well, they're bringing out a remake with guys that copy the originals and directed by the Farrelly Brothers. Trailer looks pretty good.

except that it's not going to be as funny. the three stooges are an institution that should not be messed with. what made them unique was their relationships with each other, which transcended the screen, and you could tell it.

this looks good, but will not be the same. very disappointed with the choice to modernize the stooges.

Never have cared for them in the least. I maintain that humor was not discovered until the late fifties or early sixties. (I realize that I hold a minority opinion on this, and I now wait for someone to bring up the one thing that everyone on Earth except me considers the absolute classic, definitive example of humor, which of course, I have always found to be annoying in the same manner as mimes. blush )

Well put.. They had a lot of adult humor that was over a kids head... If they did that it might work if not it will be a jump the shark moment...

I thought they were an interesting chance to see a tweaked vaudeville act on TV. Really transitional stuff. Most of it played pretty well, some stuff not so much. Overall, good stuff, and I loved them when I was young. Today we have "marathon" presentations, and I don't think it serves them well. Better in small doses. That's what they were designed for.

I always liked the stooges as a kid. I agree that a remake probably won't be that good. Kinda like the True Grit remake after John Wayne. Some things should just be left alone.....

But one has to admit that the wit and wisdom of the GREATEST African explorer of all time, Captian Gregory T. Spalding, has the stooges beat by a furlong. Don't get me wrong, I love the stoogers, but Julius Marx was the greatest philosopher of the 20th century....... Funny thing is he'd probably agree with you as he never wanted to be associated with any organization that would have him for a member......

I've tried to like 'em, but just don't really find them funny. I hope for the sake of Stooge fans that the movie is worthy.

The depth of the Stooges is something most women do not appreciate.
