Meet the Fockers

Post by Brotha »

Just read about this! Looks like it won't be coming out until Dec. 22 of 04 though, so I guess, like the past couple of years with LOTR, I'll be waiting impatiently for December to roll around.

Dustin Hoffman will be Greg's dad, which should be cool. But, from what I just read, it looks like Barbara Streisand has a good chance of being Mrs. Focker. Barbara Streisand? WTF?! DeNiro will still be in it of course and I'm sure he will own.

A couple of links:

If Barbara Streisand is in it i won't see it, period. Already the idea of making a sequal to something like Meet the Parents sounds really dumb. It was a funny movie, but making a sequal is a bit of a stretch. It's going to be the same, ben-stiller-makes-a-ton-of-stupid-mistakes movie. It gets old.

There's also a sequel to Ocean's 11 coming out in 2004...

Ocean's 12.

Looks like they're running out of original ideas now.

That would make it a sequel to a remake...

Ocean's 12...how bout The Whole 10 Yards? Should be out in a bit. Liked the first one, but don't think it warrants a fucking sequel.

the ideas in the sequels may be funny, but they sure don't use any creativity for the titles
I'll probably see all those sequels, on DVD's when they come to Blockbuster

You can milk anything for a sequel.

That almost brought a tear to my eye from laughing.
