Movie News: Dallas Set to Suck

What do you call a movie that is on its third director and has had a bunch of big name stars attached and then quit before the movie is anywhere near finished? Why, Dallas, of course. Now that the latest director, Gurinder Chadha has quit, it looks like Betty Thomas will be handling the project. If you are not familiar with the name, Thomas was the director for The Brady Bunch.

As for attached stars, Dallas once had Jennifer Garner, Jennifer Lopez, Shirley Maclaine, Meg Ryan, Luke Wilson, and John Travolta were all once set to star in the flick. Currently, John Travolta is the only one still attached with plans of playing JR Ewing. To add fear to Dallas lovers everywhere, an additional screenwriter has been added to the pot. Pam Brady, known for her work on Hot Rod and Team America: World Police will be working on the project.

Hopefully, if you’re planning to see this it’s to get a good laugh. Otherwise, if you’re going with plans of remembering the primetime soap you knew and loved, you might be in trouble.
