Fame Is Going To Be Annoying, Probably
Ugh, the teaser trailer for the remake of Fame has come out. September might be annoying:
All of the motivations behind the making of this movie can be easily summed up in its official website url: "Generationfame.com." And we thought OUR high schools were full of assholes. (The shot of the cellist makes me laugh though: go forth, fame-seeking cellist at the New York High School For Performing Arts! Don't let fame ruin your spirit!)

...That's why I intend to be the Lenny Bruce of choreography.
No more jazz hands, just cocksucker hands.
Score = 5
I am the Gwyneth Paltrow of cellists.
Score = 6
Truly and honestly, the only comment could muster up after seeing this is "UGH."
Score = 5
Don't they know that the only way to achive true fame is to post videos of yourself doing stupid things on youtube?
Score = 4
I might actually want to see it if the cellist goes all Jacqueline du Pré.
Score = 0
Remember when people had original concepts for films and musicals? Yeah, that was awesome.
Not to say a good remake isn't good. But Fame was a musical, then a movie, then a musical again, then a tv show, then a musical again, and now a movie again. I like the original movie a lot (the same way I like Center State and Camp and every other kicky art school movie) but nope...not going to see this. Just like I didn't see them ruin John Water's Hairspray by high-school-musical-ing it up.
Score = 5
"Remember when people had original concepts for films and musicals?'
No. I don't remember this.
How old are you? Where are you from?
Score = 4
The original was kind of annoying too, but at least it had a little bit of grit. This looks extremely Hilary Duffified.
Score = 3
Hey, don't be down on this movie. My old high school is doing Fame for their musical and I'll be dragged, and I hate to say it, but THAT will probably be even more The Worst.
Score = 1
I don't know what ya'll are talking about. This looks awesome. I will be seeing this.

Also, Yo Yo Ma is actually a very famous cellist. It can happen. FAME!
Score = -1
I'm pretty sure that Colin is Yo Yo Ma's publicist.
Score = 4
I am looking forward to watching this movie on HBO while I'm hungover.
Score = 3
Just go ahead and put this in the running for Worst Movie of All Time.
Score = 2
they wisely went with the sans-dialogue approach to trailer editing.
Score = 3
I don't think this film is going to inspire me to wear legwarmers again like the original series did. I was under 10 at the time, but still.
Score = 2
It looks too bad to even hate-watch
Score = 2
I guess the original FAME didn't live forever... sorry.
:(
I'm way to young to know about this.
Score = 2
Kids won't be having sex in this high school!
Hey, I'm a cellist!
Score = 0
Looks more like a Coca-Cola ad.
