Default Why is Burt Reynolds playing Boss Hogg in the Dukes of Hazzard movie?

I saw the preview last night. It is bad enough Hollywood is running out of ideas, but are we suppose to believe that Burt Reynolds can play a short fat bald dude? This is messing up his legacy. Danny Devito could played him. This movie is a joke anyway.

That's not Burt!! Burt died several years ago and they've been using a mechanical wax dummy ever since! Have you SEEN the guy up close lately? That's not even human!! Guess it was cheaper than hiring an actor!

OMG! He looks so waxy! Please Burt grow old gracefully like millons before you! It is hard to admit how old you/one is growing but it is inevitable.Trying to cover it up is only delaying the process.(and very obvious to boot!) Many have tried and failed.

And if anything, it just brings MORE attention to the fact that they're aging and can't handle it. Like Joan Rivers!! Its so much more classy to just take as best care of yourself as you can and let nature take its course - look at Betty White, still a beautiful woman well into her 70s - I can't imagine what she'd look like if she had gone the route of others.

Actually, Danny DeVito wouldn't have been a bad choice.

I saw previews for The Dukes Of Hazzard movie. I'm gonna check it out. I'm surprised they got Burt Reynolds to play Boss Hogg too. I read that Anthony Anderson was close to being Boss Hogg for the movie. LOL@black Boss Hogg hahahahahahahaha. Jessica Simpson looks good playing Daisy Duke.
