Raven Symone to Star in Adventures in Babysitting Remake

[PM_Mama00]

Dear god I hope not! I HATE the way she acts... or should I say over-acts. I thought it was just in That's So Raven but I saw some Lifetime movie with her and while it was toned down, I still found her annoying. Adventures in Babysitting is a great movie, hopefully they don't ruin it by casting her.

I don't think it's a good look. I love the original. I can't see RS in that role at all.

Oh God NO!!!!!

Please, the original is a classic in my book. Why must they mess with the originals!!!!!!!

I've only seen a few remakes that I actually liked!

I'm sorry, but she is overweight, and I don't think she is setting a good example for little girls. She says all this stuff about how she's proud that she isn't super skinny, and that it's ok to be a big girl, but seriously, obesity isn't healthy.

It's ridiculous that they're remaking this movie. Hollywood has no originality these days.

Stop remaking movies and tv shows from the 80's!!! Stop ruining the movies and tv shows of my childhood!!!

Oh please - she isn't obese! Yes, a little heavy, but a LOT of that is her ginormous breasts. I would venture to say she's about a 14. I think she's setting a great example for young girls. Much better than Mary-Kate Olson or that Amanda Bynes girl who is clearly starving herself now that she is off the "kids" shows.

As to the movie, I don't think Raven going into the Blues Bar and singing the blues is gonna be quite as funny.

*applause* I'm full figured myself. There are some girls, before Raven that are looking for full figured role models. Unfortuentley, they are dealt with Mary-Kate Olsen and Lindsay Lohan. It's sad to see Hollywood producers forcing many women to be twigs. The average woman is 5'4" and weighs 140 lbs and is a size 14. The average supermodel is 5'11" and weighs 117 lbs and wears a size 4. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out who's underweight. The BMI for a supermodel is 16.3, which is underweight. As for the average woman for her height and weight, it is a 24, which is considered normal. The sad part is that almost half of first through third graders wish that they would be thinner and half of nine to ten year olds feel good about dieting. Marilyn Monroe was not overweight, she was 5'5" and weigh 135 lbs. Now if she was here today, her agents would tell her to lose weight.

Tiffani Thiessen was told by producers to lose weight. There is nothing wrong with her. She just have curves, that's all. There is nothing wrong with having curves. I would rather look like Tiffani Thiessen than a twig like Lindsay Lohan. They're both the same height. Now, who's body image is better: Tiffani or Lindsay? If I have curves, but not overweight and producers told me to lose weight, I would tell them to find someone else, becuase I would be happy with my curves.

Off my soapbox for that. As for the movie, I'm not so sure about that.

Wow, they wanted Tiffani Thiessen to lose weight?!?! That is ridiculous..

Yes Raven is slighty overwieght not OBESE, but like xo_kathy stated, the girl is top heavy. Sheesh, do you have to be emaciated to be a role model for young girls????
