What Women Want gets a Horrid Quasi-Remake
The generally funny and awesome romantic comedy What Women Want (you know, the one that starred Mel Gibson) was a huge success back in the day, earning a ton of cash for New Line Cinema. So with this being the age of the remakes, it is…you guessed it, getting remade! The movie, which is only about 9-10 years old, starred Gibson as this advertising big shot that after a freak accident in his bathroom — involving a ton of womens products and him electrocuting himself — started to be able to hear what women were thinking when they came close to him.
Well, the remake, or quasi-remake really, will take that general concept and teen it up, turning it into your typical Disney “comedy” about life, love and friendship mixed in with some singing and dancing. The new movie will be called What Boys Want and will feature 17-year-old Selena Gomez, the star of the horrid Disney tv-series Wizards of Waverly Place.
The plot will be that something, something, blablabla happens and then pif puf poof Gomez starts being able to hear what all the CuTe BoYz are thinking. As lame as I think this will be, I do have some hopes though that it’ll make a 360 turn and instead of being another typical teen-Disney flick, we’ll see Gomez being able to hear what men think, which, judging by her looks, is pretty filthy. I’d watch that. But that won’t happen, so screw this movie.

This sounds like such a bad idea. This sounds like a South Park idea… I mean that would be funny but Disney will try to tell little girls that see their crap that boys want to play with puppy dog tails or something? Wow.
Posted by Ian on October 21st, 2009Not just men, but also BoYz her age, think about sex constantly. And not in a general “I want to have sex with her” kinda way. It should be pretty funny to see good old Disney try to tippy-toe around that fact.
Posted by Bas on October 21st, 2009I hate to be the circle-police or whatever, and while I do agree with everything else about this… a 360 turn would leave you exactly in the same place you started… but yeah, otherwise this news sounds pretty stupid unless it actually turned out to be and R rated comedy

Posted by Niklas on October 21st, 2009#3 I feel stupid now. Albeit not stupid enough to go and correct myself.
Posted by Kasper on October 21st, 2009Maybe it’ll be a dark, gritty film in which she finds out one of her teachers is a paedophile but no one will believe her because of the way she found out… Or maybe it’ll be stupid bubblegum crap that reveals all boys think about abstinence.

LOL, no shit man. spot on!
“we’ll see Gomez being able to hear what men think, which, judging by her looks, is pretty filthy. I’d watch that. But that won’t happen, so screw this movie.”

better yet….just get vh to do it
In regards to what #3 Jim said, it seems lately everyone says 360 when they really mean 180. Because as Jim said a 360 would put you right back where you started. I don’t like correcting people because it makes you look like an ass, but this is one thing that drives me crazy.
Another thing that drives me crazy is when someone says they are going to give it their 110%. That makes no sense, you cannot give more than 100%. And if you are going to go over 100% why not make it 200%, or better yet 1000%, holy shit that’s a lot of yourself!
Posted by Itchy-Finger on October 22nd, 2009that reminds me of the simpsons episode where homer play’s baseball for his job and before the championship game between them and the shelbyville power plant they have that hypnotist and he says
“you’ll give 110&”
they go
“that’s impossible, no one can give more then 100% because thats the most anyone can ever give.”
