02.08.10 IT’S OFFICIAL: DAREDEVIL GETS A REBOOT

(Get it? His hair’s messed up because he’s blind. Stupid Hollywood, The Braillettes managed it fine.)
Fox currently owns the rights to the Daredevil franchise, but if they don’t do anything with it, it reverts back to Marvel. And if there’s one thing Fox execs can’t stand, it’s the idea of anyone else making a suckier movie than them. Therefore, Daredevil reboot. Same blind dude, now with less Affleck. ;-(
Regency is mounting the remake with former News Corp No. 2 Peter Chernin producing. Writing the redo is screenwriter David Scarpa, who scripted The Day The Earth Stood Still for Fox. [DHD]
The Day the Earth Stood Still... anyone see that? No? Didn’t think so. Maybe I’ll catch it on cable. If I lose my remote or something. Anyway, the important thing is that they cast a strong lead, and I think I’ve got the perfect choice…
That’s right, Blind Cowbell Girl. Not only will she be way more convincing, but what better way to improve upon something than to add more cowbell? It’s genius. You owe me for this, Fox.
BAD GUY: “Shhh. …Do you hear something?”
[Off in the distance]: Clank, clank, clank….

Like this won’t be Taylor Lautner (as Daredevil) versus Sam Worthington (as Bullseye) with Him catching it on FX in a month (dismissive wanking Klingon).
I can brailley wait to see it.
And the parade of comic book movies nobody wants continues.
Actually, that sounds like a great build up to a punch line:
“So this blind Latino kid walks up to a guy with a lousy fake Australian accent that is playing darts at a bar…”
Is Hollywood still trying to make Sam Worthington happen?
He’s not going to happen!
Daredevil could be a great movie, but it won’t be.
the brailletes make you FEEL their songs
Daredevil should be played by Josh Hartnett. That squinty bastard can barely see anyway.
And it’s not like he’s got anything else on his plate.
Daredevil hardly ever has to reboot because he uses a Mac. He just thinks that “windows” is an assholey name for an operating system for blind people.
The ‘ette on the left isn’t really blind. She just wants to fit in. The one in the middle is a goddman gollum. The one on the right is giving me those bedroom eyes….
Dare devil’s theme should be by Charlie Daniels, or I walk.
goddamn, goddmanit!
He has to reboot because he keeps putting the right one on his left foot and the left on his right food.
Two things I noticed after replaying Blind Cowbell Girl 5-6 times:
1) Chubby cheerleaders
2) Reese’s sponsorship
Coincidence? I think not.
They should let Robert Zemeckis give this the mo-cap treatment. All of his characters already have dead eyes.
Cowbell or WOWbell? I think we know the answer.
He has wrong food, elle0??
A reboot is that experimental german screen-door submarine, right?
I think one of the Braillettes banged Rocky Dennis.
He can’t see or spell!
Blind chicks can read body language as well. For instance, they know I’m horny when they feel my erection.

Don’t get head from the ‘ette in the middle, my dick looks like Channing Tatum now.
When you’re blind, it’s just a bell.
Chareth, what you just said was out of line. Even for my taste.
The Braillettes’ studio music may not be too interesting, but their live shows are awesome. I’ve never seen three members of a band stage dive that many times during one song.
There’s one thing we can all agree upon: if there’s a hell, we’re going.
Careth. Consider your post nommed.
Channing Tatum’s grouping of genital warts translates to “Holla atcha boy” in braille.
What’s the policy for nominating two posts from the same person from the same thread?
Chareth. You complete me.
This is gonna stink as bad as Ddaredeviled egg farts.
I stutter when I’m sober. WHY AM I SOBER!!??
I just think it’s sexy that the Brailettes know what each others’ nipples say.
The Brailette’s were the muse behind Jeff Healy’s “Angel Eyes”.
I was railing a blind chick and she started laughing cause my backne said, “Back door beauty.”
Good thing about sexing blind chicks is that there’s no piont in shaving for the ol’ optical inch.
Yay! No scrote stubble!
Seriously, no one wants a story about a superhero lawyer. Suspension of disbelief can only be stretched so far
Crap – Pray tell – What is the optical inch?
Silly blind girl, she always puts her socks on the wrong feet.
Good thing about sexing a blind girl is that if you and a friend wear the same cologne you can tag team.
The Braillettes smacked Seal after they read his face.
The Braillettes needed a bookmark to get through Danny Trejo’s face.
This is as bad as an idea as bending over at a blind orgy.
To the Braillettes, Edward James Olmos’ face is “The Neverending Story”.
ord Hum, the optical inch is the theory that your unit looks longer if you shave/trim.
Which I don’t really need to do, you know, cuz I’m set up just fine, it’s just something I heard and havn’t tried so I wouldn’t know.
If you ever get the chance to see the Braillettes in concert, you should. Their top hat and cane routine is simply stunning.
Blind girls hate it when you write “cock hole” on their face in Sharpie.
I like the Braillettes, but they aren’t really their own act. They worked much better as Ray Charles’ backup singers.
The Brailettes are a hell of a lot better than the Closed Captionistas.
Although The Braillettes debut, Our Hearts Keep Singing, was a resounding success for their label, Heart Warming Records, their second release, Marco? Polo!, was deemed too experimental and never found an audience.
