If I don’t have a chance to post anything else today, at least I will have posted this: Original on ‘Jump Street’ case (via The Hollywood Reporter). That’s right, kids. 21 Jump Street, the show that (even moreso than Married …With Children) really defined the future of the Fox network is coming to the big screen courtesy of the producers of The Fast and the Furious and it’s even horrendous sequel. And that’s exactly as it should be. Jump Street was pure pop schlock, but it was craptastically great, and no one does crap better than Original Films.
Now if only they can convince Johnny Depp to get over the trauma he had working on the series and come back as Captain Tom Hanson, head of the special Jump Street unit, this would be the perfect movie. Come on, Johnny. You won’t be hamstrung by it anymore. We all know you’re one of the best actors of your generation. Go on and jump!
