Entertainment For Lively Minds
Pop/cinema team-up or carry on flogging the dead horse
It surely makes sense for the entertainment forms of pop and cinema to pool resources on future projects, given the difficulty of finding new ways to make money in these hard times. Perhaps otherwise predictable re-makes can be given a new musical twist and help keep pop careers going. Some possible titles for future development:
Memo from Turner and Hooch - Mick Jagger (renowned for previous acting roles) reprises famous portrayal from Performance fighting the forces of law and order and decency but this time with a lovable pooch at his side.
A Fistful of Dollar - um...something about Clint Eastwood with guns, ponchos, David Van Day and the blonde one.
The Future Sound of Music - Julie Andrews attempts to hold a rave in the Austrian alps, though those dastardly nazis are out to stop her. Featuring the music of the Future Sound of London. Quentin Tarantino to direct?
More suggestions would be most welcome.

Faces opposition and comic relief from his (possibly drunk, possibly racist) guitar playing brothers-in-law (Ian Carmichael & Dickie Attenborough) who want to send her to Jamaica on the Windrush as a protest about Labour's immigration policies.

Thank you. I am terribly proud of myself.
It's important to have a good laugh every day. Making someone laugh is just as good as helping an old lady across the road, I reckon. Something professional comedians might remember the next time they are on a chat show.
Thank you for reading through the others. I'm going to carry on plugging away at art house movies no-one else has seen (until I can think of another dick joke).
