Whats all this stuff about a second reunion movie? Is it true? I've seen you guys mention it in posts, but never really read into them.

Have you checked Lisa's journal? Maybe it has something.

I've heard Sandra Bullock, yes the one who was in the Ya-Ya sisterhood and Mrs. Congeliality, will be playing as Jo Polnaicheck-Bonner.

mapmanmsl · 12-15-2002, 04:12 AM

Because Sony, yes thats right, the same company that makes your alls Playstation 2's, ownes the very rights to the character of Jo Polnaichek, and Sony has reportedly payed Sandra Bullock an estimated 5 million dollars to play the part of Jo Polnaichek on the second FOL reunion. All the other characters will be played by their respected actors and actresses, IE Kim Fields, Lisa Welchel, Mindy Cohn, etc. But Sandra Bullock has been chosen to play as Jo Polnaichek.

There ya go!!!

Sony ownes Columbia-Tristar and Embassy.

So if you never wanted all this stuff to never happen, you should have never allowed Sony to become the 2nd biggest corporation in the world, In other words, you should have never bought all those darn Playstation and Playstation 2 video game consoles, ya know, now they gave Nancy Mckeons old character of Jo to someone else for the second FOL reunion. Im just surprised they didn't just go and give it to Angelina Jolie, ya know.

I'm sorry, and I don't mean any disrespect towards the Nancy and Jo fans, but no company in their right mind would pay a high rising star 5 grand to portray an 80's sitcom character for a chessy (Yes I love Facts, but face it, all reunions are sorta cheesy) TV reunion movie. I don't believe a word of what you're saying because it's just common sense.

What on earth are you talking about? Guys, I don't mean to be so blunt but I doubt we have a 2nd reunion. I doubt Sandra Bullock would even consider playing Jo. Let's just consider ourselves lucky that we even got a reunion. Yeah, it wasn't a full reunion because Nancy wasn't on board. At least we got most of the main cast back though.

Yeah, I agree. For the most part, most of the reunion movies I've seen were kind of cheesy. The only exception I can think of is 'The Andy Griffith Show' and 'Star Trek'. Even TAGS was a bit off. Everything seemed forced in some scenes. I don't know how to really explain that, but if you like TAGS and you've seen Return to Mayberry- you'll see what I mean.

Sony owns FoL and manufactures Playstation, eh?

Where's the FoL PS2 Game?

I mean, with the photo-realistic graphics they got (think GTA3), They could make a decent FoL RPG.

Ya know... 9 Levels.... following the season storylines.... the last level will be getting Natalie to lose her virginity in time to make it to Jo's wedding...

Ooh, someone get me Sony's number! I could make 'em millions!!!!!

Um,where is this information coming from,is it from TVGuide or
People or some such magazine,so I haven't heard anything a second reunion movie,by the way I don't know about the rest of
you ,but I put thumbs down on Sandra Bullock playing the part of
Jo Polniaczek,In my opinion I don't she very good actress and I doubt she'd be anything better compared to Nancy McKeon,because FOL fans young and old will always remember
Nancy McKeon as Jo,not Sandra Bullock.

Guys, there is no way Sandra Bullock would even consider playing Jo. That's almost like saying Julia Roberts was asked to play her and accepted. And no one would pay that much for a reunion movie, when the first one didnt do all that well, did it?

Imo, looking at the reunion and the actual show is like looking at two different things. The reunion and the show are supposed to blend into one since the reunion is showing what happened to the girls. It just didn't come out correctly.

They really lost the formula to the show and I guess maybe you could blame it on poor writing. We had different writers this time around, right? I'm sure the new writers went back and studied some of the episodes, but they didn't exactly have anything to do with it the first time around. I could study a page in a book for about 5 hours, even then I wouldn't have memorized the whole thing. I could take out a sheet of paper and write down that page without looking at it and I could come up with things that were similar to the page, but it's still completely different. I'm sure if the original writer were to walk in the room, he might be able to tell me word for word what that page said.

I hope everybody understands what I'm trying to say. I might not be making sense in this post, but most of time you can't recreate somebody elses work. Sure, some times you do have that lightning flash and you come out equal with the original writers. The lightning just didn't flash for the reunion writers. Just didn't flash.
