So long as Hollywood continues to churn out the idiotic ideas, this site is going to continue to be somewhat entertaining. So, at least for that, thanks Hollywood!
DiCaprio has a production company? Wow. Who knew? The production company is called Appian Way, but we here at Hey! Media! have a suggestion for renaming it: Damned Mediocre.
At any rate:
“The companies are not seeking to remake an episodic movie, as the only big-screen version of the show did 25 years ago, but rather hope to build one continuing story line based on one or more episodes.”
Well, thank God for a portion of that sentence. Also:
“A feature adaptation could be a passion project of sorts for DiCaprio, who in interviews has cited ‘Twilight Zone’ as his favorite show.”
Well, there you go. It’s one of his favorite shows, so of course he should fuck it up with a new, big screen adaptation. Way to go, DiCaprio!
Hey look! We can rhyme words and stuff. Perhaps it’s time for a rap career.

Really? You are really going to trash Leonardo Dicaprio for bringing smart and entertaining media to the big screen? Really?
It is not as if they didn’t do it years ago and make it a complete mess. It’s not as if they didn’t remake the series on the UPN and destroy the brand. If he has a passion for the series, he is the perfect person to bring it to the big screen. Maybe all of the fans of the show can get a chance to really enjoy a great movie for a change.
Did you bitch about Star Trek, or Batman, or Ironman, Or Spiderman or X-files when they announced it was going from television to the big screen?
And finally, Yes he does have a production company. check out IMDB.COM and look it up. He is actually quite a talented producer with great taste judging from his projects. You ever hear of a little movie called Aviator? I recall some 11 Oscar nominations surrounding that one, including Best Picture.
Why don’t you stick to trashing things you know something about….Let the rest of us get excited about something other than the next Hannah Montana movie.

Yes.

Yes, perhaps. Hooray, then!
>>>>Did you bitch about Star Trek, or Batman, or Ironman, Or Spiderman or X-files when they announced it was going from television to the big screen?
Look at the damn site, Gio. I bitch about everything. Unless it’s good. And doesn’t sport DiCaprio as actor/producer/writer/dire…whatever.
>>>>And finally, Yes he does have a production company. check out IMDB.COM and look it up.
Hyperbole. Look it up.
Oh, the hell with it. Here: “1. obvious and intentional exaggeration.” [emphasis mine]
>>>>I recall some 11 Oscar nominations surrounding that one, including Best Picture.
WHEE! OSCARS!
>>>>>Why don’t you stick to trashing things you know something about….Let the rest of us get excited about something other than the next Hannah Montana movie.
Jesus Christ, Hannah Montana? Were you even actually here when you typed that out?
Get excited, for God’s sake. That’s great! This place is full of exaggerations, hyperbolic comments, sarcasm, plain bullshit and a lot of movie/media news. Here’s the trick to reading things here: It’s for fun!
Take this site (and yourself) good bit less serious. Enjoy whatever DiCaprio’s production company comes up with, have a good life while we make fun of Hollywood.
[...] the other hand, this is just taking something that’s already been done and reworking it. It’s not exactly a remake, since it’s moving to a new medium and having the story [...]
Oh wow!! Something else for DiCRAPrio to screw up! This news leaves me with the same queezy feeling in my stomach that I had back in the early 90’s when I heard that he was going to play Spiderman. I can only pray to the high heavens that this Twilight Zone shit doesn’t come to pass…at least with his involvement in it anyway.
