If anything, I've found these young teenage bloggers are critical of anything and everything they can think of, with no real substance to their arguments. But I digress.<BR/><BR/>It depends on what version of Johnny Quest they plan on doing. Even the WB wouldn't miss the mark by that much if there was only the original series to draw from, but they may be thinking in terms of the last series, where Johnny and everyone are all teenagers. Not a good idea, but you know how executives are about marketing.<BR/><BR/>Though I think Dwayne Johnson is perfect for Race. Other then the hair color, they're practically twins. (If you can be a twin with a 60s animated doodle. But again, I digress.)<BR/><BR/><B>Annonymous said</B><BR/>>>><I>Honor, the least you can do is stop picking on Zac Efron!<BR/><BR/>To me, making fun of younger stars like that is making fun of kids, so quit being such a bully.</I><<<<BR/><BR/>Nobody did. He said Zac Efron is too old to play a 13 year old. Which is correct, he's 21 and he doesn't much look like a teenager anymore to get away with playing him around 18, which isn't in the spirit of the original series. How is pointing out he's growing up making fun? Oversensitive on the subject a little, aren't you?Digital Jedihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02374739586203788564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-69886725402031188302009-02-17T09:43:00.000-08:002009-02-17T09:43:00.000-08:00Zach Efron as Jonny?

Set JQ in the sixties when lasers and rockets and hover craft were new and cool. <BR/><BR/>I'd personally rather see Jason Statham or Jeffrey Donovan as Race Bannon. Race had that cool detached tang a la James Bond that Johnson seems to lack. Statham and Donovan swim in the stuff. What the heck is WB thinking here?<BR/><BR/>I just don't see live action JQ as workable. Many of the classic Saturday cartoons have not translated well and I fear Jonny Quest will be another one, if the original setting and premise isn't maintained in the process.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-64171654129578897472009-02-17T09:28:00.000-08:002009-02-17T09:28:00.000-08:00I think this is another example of Hollywood just ...I think this is another example of Hollywood just buying the title and throwing all the character development out the window.mydisneycollectionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03804767174657354564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-85161708839283753572009-02-17T09:01:00.000-08:002009-02-17T09:01:00.000-08:00So sad.

I had Kenneth Branagh as Dr. Quest. I like Efron okay, but think he is too old for this role. Is he going to sing and dance?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-32595846267272837592009-02-17T07:50:00.000-08:002009-02-17T07:50:00.000-08:00Honor, the least you can do is stop picking on Zac...Honor, the least you can do is stop picking on Zac Efron!<BR/><BR/>To me, making fun of younger stars like that is making fun of kids, so quit being such a bully.<BR/><BR/>And if he does successfully make the transition from kid roles to adult roles (a la Kurt Russell, Annette Funicello, Brooke Shields, Drew Barrymore, etc.), it'll give people like you an even bigger reason to apologize for putting them down so much.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-33410199754330733632009-02-17T07:23:00.000-08:002009-02-17T07:23:00.000-08:00Evidently WB doesn't think that Speed Racer was a ...Evidently WB doesn't think that Speed Racer was a big enough train wreck so they'll try again with JQ.

Maybe now you'll understand why I have such contempt for Lucas and why I am bitter about such aboninable attrocities of celluloid like Stephen Sommers' G.I. Blow and J.J. Abrams' Star Dreck.
