A GILLIGANS ISLAND MOVIE IS IN THE WORKS!



Welcome to another edition of MOVIES THAT SHOULD NOT BE MADE.


Yes, it's been a while since we've played this game, but it became necessary the moment Warner Brothers announced that they're making a "Gilligan's Island" movie.


That's right, "Gilligan's Island" . . . the classic sitcom that ran for a mere THREE seasons on CBS from 1964 to 1967 . . . but has NEVER STOPPED airing in repeats since.


Original creator SHERWOOD SCHWARTZ, who's 93 years old and still kicking, is one of the producers .


There's no word yet on casting, but when Schwartz was talking about doing the movie last year, he said he was interested in getting MICHAEL CERA to play Gilligan.


Production is expected to begin next year. There's no word on a release date.


And now, Here are the THREE REASONS WHY A "GILLIGAN'S ISLAND" MOVIE SHOULD NOT BE MADE:


1.) GPS, cell phones, wireless Internet: It's practically IMPOSSIBLE to get lost in 2010. And there are no uncharted tropical islands that don't have smoke monsters and polar bears on them.
2.) In this economy, do you think a farm girl like Mary Ann could afford a THREE-HOUR TOUR???
3.) "The Brady Bunch in the White House". Are we clear???
