Oh-no: A "Wizard of Oz" remake
This is a terrible idea waiting to happen. Word is out that Warner Bros. wants director Robert Zemeckis to remake The Wizard of Oz as a live-action feature from the original 1939 movie script. Warners obtained the script when it purchased Ted Turner's assets. Turner, you might recall, got it when he took over MGM's library. You might think that using the original script would be a good idea, but look at what happened when Gus Van Zant tried to do the same thing with Psycho. It was an absolute disaster. C'mon, can anyone replace Judy Garland? Can't happen and shouldn't be tried.
