Oh, brother

Here's one for the ages…

Jessica Simpson Cast as Daisy Duke

Now, let's think about this… How many times will she forget her lines before they kick her off the set? I guess she's better than the supposed first choice of Britney Spears. She'll never replace Catherine Bach, though. At least Catherine had an ounce of intelligence. A much better choice for the part? Jessica Biel.

As for Bo and Luke? Seann William Scott and Johnny Knoxville. It's a good thing I liked these two in “The Rundown” and “Men In Black 2″ respectively. The roles that made them famous are anything but flattering.

So, my next question is… Will John Schneider, Tom Wopat, Catherine Bach, Ben Jones, Sonny Shroyer or James Best make cameos? I hope at least one of them will. That will be the only tie to the old series this thing will have. Lord knows in today's politically correct world, they'll take the Confederate flag off the General Lee.

My prediction? People won't run to see it, but it won't bomb either. It will open the first week at #1, then head straight down.

Sorry for the negativity. Amy and I both loved the old show so much. It's hard to get excited about the movie with the cast they've chosen.
