Matthew Broderick Approves 'Ferris Bueller' Remake...But Wants No Part of It
Matthew Broderick has given Hollywood bosses the green light to remake his classic movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off, but doesn't want any involvement in it.
Rumors have swirled for months suggesting studio chiefs are nursing plans to bring the cult 1980s comedy back to the big screen in either a sequel or a remake. Broderick has now commented on the reports, insisting he would be "happy" with plans to bring back rebellious teen Ferris, as long as the project is handed to a completely new cast. He tells Cinematical, "(A remake) would be fine. I would be perfectly happy for somebody to do that. I probably wouldn't enjoy (having a role in the film). I would rather leave what we did as our thing." http://www.starpulse.com/news/index...._ferris_buelle |

Why do they want to remake all these 80s movies? Seriously? They were some of the best in my opinion. It's just going to make people like the remakes and forget about the originals because younger generations haven't seen the original ones.

I think the original "Ferris Bueller" was very connected to the decade in which it was made. (the 80's) As such I'm not sure a remake would even work. But if the y do remake it I think it would be a lot of fun to have Matthew Broderick play Principal Rooney.

NO. WTF. Why is Hollywood a bunch of morons these days? I know what it is. They hired a bunch of monkeys who don't know wtf they're doing because of THE ECONOMY, so they just remake everything because they clearly have no creativity anymore.

I think Hollywood just can't admit that there will never be movies like there were back in the 80's again!
