Uhm, I haven't seen it since I was a kid, but are they masculine enough for the roles?

Shouldn't you know, casting directors or directors themselves, you know actually cast people who can act. And when I say act, I don't mean act like a dumb blonde ditz (that gives all blondes a bad name).

Could they at least go for Mandy Moore who has like four movies under her belt and well she can act (IMPO). Hell critics don't pounce on Mandy b/c she's not an airhead.

As for Britney, her one movie I think tanked at the box office.

I have to say, what is the world coming too if they cast Jessica Simpson in a movie?

FYI: Jessica's ABC TV show that was in development where she would play a character just as airheady (made up word :) ) as her, did not get picked up for next season.

Even though I REALLY don't see Jessica Simpson being able to pull off this role, the fact that Paul Walker is playing Luke is enough to make it worth taking the time to watch for me! (Ashton Kutcher on the other hand...:rolleyes: ) I really loved the Dukes of Hazzard when I was a kid, so I'd probably have to see it anyway, no matter who was playing in it.

The first season of the dukes of hazard rocks! I am glad they finnaly put it out on dvd, I had forgot most the original plots since I only saw them in repeats when I was like 6. The first season was in 79.

That's the year my brother was born so we most likely saw repeats as well. I'll have to look for it and send it to him as a just because present.

I'd like to see Jessica as Daisy...Jessica Biel that is...

I had heard rumors about it being in the making, but I am curious as to who is going to play the characters...

Jessica...stupid stupid stupid..has anyone seen the commercials for the new season of the newlyweds...they are hilarious..playing off her dumbness :D

It's official now:

Hmm they must be making Daisy a dumb person now.

Has anyone seen the new Dukes of Hazzard? I hear Jessica was practically cut out of the movie. Is it worth it?

I heard some reveiws and most of them said they were UN-IM-PREESSED on Jess's acting and that she was basically there for eye candy.

actually i heard differently. they said she was great in the movie but was not in it enough.

I saw the movie last night and it was actually good. It's definitely not an Oscar contender but it was funny and not a bad remake. It was better than Starsky & Hutch. But I didn't go in with ideasof grandure. Jessica was pretty good in it, you can tell she was just there for the eye candy, but she was in it more than Willie Nelson. They probably could have done more with her character development but she wasn't bad. The only complaint the other people had was that Roscoe sucked. But I wasn't an avid Dukes TV fan so I could enjoy the show without constantly comparing the two. Overall it was a good movie.

Speaking of Jessica as Daisy did anyone read in In Touch what Reese Witherspoon said about her?

Reese was basically saying that she doesn't want her daughter to grow up thinking Jessica is supposed to be a "role model" because Jessica chooses to act like an idiot. She went on to say that her mom and grandmother didn't work hard on women's rights and whatnot so Jessica could truly act like a "dumb blonde".

I thought it was funny because I totally agree with Reese. Jessica acts like a dumb blonde and as a blonde myself it is truly disheartning. What's worse is that she thinks its "cute" to act this way. Which makes me think more that she's an idiot.

(I also personally think she and her dad are a bit delusional when they believe that she will be able to command 20 million a movie. Hello!!! She is NO WHERE the same caliber as Julia Roberts or any of the other women who can command that much).

I personally have no desire to see the movie in the first place. I'm not going to waste 9 bucks to see the two men act like morons and Jessica act like a dumb blonde who uses her body to get what she wants.

That was in Marie Claire this month. I loved it. I love Reese Witherspoon.

I've heard nothing but negative reviews of the movie.

People gave it half a star and said Jessica's acting was comparable to Britney and Mariah. I refuse to see this movie... it just doesn't look good at all to me.
