John Travolta's Subway Heist Costume
Filed under: Candids , Denzel Washington , John Travolta , Movie Production , NYC , Times Square
Holy crap, they're remaking one of my favorite movies of all time. What's next? Dog Day Afternoon? The Apartment? Dammit people, this recycling business is getting out of hand. John Travolta has gone from wearing drag for Hairspray (also a remake, I might add) to this tough guy costume for his new movie, The Taking of Pelham 123.
In the film, about a high-jacked subway train, John stars opposite Denzel "Academy Award Magnet" Washington, so I'm pretty sure that if the movie is even one half as good as the original, this shit's going to get nominated for a ton of little statues.
Sigh. I miss Walter Matthau. Is that weird?

No, it's not weird. Walter Matthau was wonderful. With one twitch of his eyebrow he could send you into spasms of laughter.

Oh, for chrissakes. Another SHITTY remake?? Why not redo Gone With the Wind, or Casablanca?
Pathetic. Seriously.

Horrible casting, at least for the cop role. They should have followed the cues of the original if they *had* to remake this. Someone like Phillip Seymour Hoffman would have been much better in the Matthau role than Washington.

Oh yes! Remember when actors had charm and were gracious? Of course that's all ancient history now.
Bah humbug!
