I just hope they get a decent Weird Harold. I always liked that character.
I have a few of the old Bill Cosby albums from the 1960s, and the man was a comic genius. "Hey, Ol' Weird Harold, I bet you fifty cents my leg can burp!"
Gwen: Demon, OK? The whole nine—cloven feet and horns and teeth. He wasn't wearing lamé though. Lorne: Yeah, the evil ones can't pull it off. It gets camp.

Buffista Movies 3: Panned and Scanned
A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Fred, it gets even freakier. According to the little blurb in EW, it's not just a live-action Fat Albert movie: apparently, it's about the animated Fat Albert characters stepping into the real world or something.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
Just rerun the old Fat Albert series - why mess with genius. I miss me some Fat Albert.

Ann, that's a ferret.
ita, I've seen the trailer. Or at least a preview. And, P-C, it's even worse than that -- they're pulled into today's real world.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
kg{kRosby faints when Fat Albert shows up at his door.
If fictional stuff were popping out of the screen and coming to life like in Purple Rose of Cairo, walking past the Independence Day sale DVDs would become a difficult act of willpower for me.

Oh, yeah, I knew that. Cause why would they get pulled into the world of their own time? That doesn't make any sense, of course.

Well, movie magic has been known to create period movies.

I admit, I saw the trailer, and I got a kick out of it. I find fish-out-of-water movies (e.g., Blast From the Past) amusing, as long as they're done well.
I don't know if I'll see Fat Albert, but the trailer made me laugh.
