They will end up remaking the movie and it will either:
Not have multiple endings and just suck
Or have multiple endings specifically to try and coax people into paying to see it multiple times. And also suck.
It will definitely suck.
There are no actors that can match the quality of the original cast.
There has been a remake stewing for years, starring Ryan Reynolds and Jason Bateman
Despite the negativity, what cast would you like to see? I'd throw in Bradley Cooper, Jamie Lee Curtis, Vincent D'Onofrio, Tom Lennon, Jennifer Coolidge...
I thought Bill Murray and then immediately after, Wes Anderson directing. Now it's ruined, can't see anything but a Wes Anderson 'Clue.'
Could work, but then it's more deadpan. Maybe throw in John Malkovich or John Cusack.
Ooh, two good picks. And we know Jeff Goldblum has to be in it.
Wouldn't mind seeing Martin Mull return. Or Christopher Lloyd. Or Mike McKean. Or Lesley Ann Warren.
Okay nobody from the first one or we'd end up with cameos from them all.
So... Jeff Goldblum.
Good call. Now that I'm thinking on it, throw in Jason Isaacs (edit: as Colonel Mustard)
Tim Curry must come back.
Much as I'd love for him to appear, concerning recovery from the stroke he suffered in 2012, he remains wheelchair bound. Just turned 78 on April 19th, but apparently still going to conventions.
I'd like multiple endings. I would watch it once in the cinema, and then would be excited to see what different endings there are when it comes out on BD.
