Bad Movie Ideas

When you read movie news you kind of know right away if the movie will be a hit or not. When it was announced that Donald Glover was playing Lando Calrissian in the young Han Solo stand-alone Star Wars movie, the entire internet shrieked for joy. Conversely, when we heard that the recent Deepwater Horizon oil spill disaster would become a movie, we groaned and knew it would be a flop.  Here are some fake news items that you know would be bad movies:

Jim Carey is the new Madea in "Ho! A Madea Christmas"

Mel Gibson stars in the remake of Schindler's List. 

Lucasfilms announces the next stand alone Star Wars story will be a Jar Jar Binks spinoff. 

Mr & Mrs Smith 2, starring Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, directed by Angelina Jolie. 

Alec Baldwin and Donald Trump are working together to shoot a biopic.  Trump will be portraying the actor in a biography about Baldwin's life titled "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Beetlejuice".
