God forbid, it become a TV show. Now THAT would be sick.. and cruel... and yet another sign of the end.

Travesty is defined thusly this year: Adam Sandler playing the roll of ex-pro quarterback Paul Crewe (Burt Reynolds) in a remake of 'The Longest Yard'. Has it really come to this? When you can take a 5'5", whiney, Jewish shrimp like Sandler, and have him geek his way through such a roll and people BUY IT? What did they do, make him stand on boxes in every scene, or drop the rest of the cast down 2 feet into a ditch??? Who could believe this dork as a pro-quarterback?? There really should be some film judiciary that can rule over what classic films can and cannot be remade. Why didn't they just hand the script to Ben Stiller? Woulda' been the same result. I was even more shocked to hear Burt plays a cameo in this movie. Nothing is sacred. Anything for a buck. This has to be the worst movie ever made.
