Subject: Curse you, Maramuke!

Written By: JamieMcBain on 10/08/10 at 6:56 pm

Look like there will be a Family Circus movie, coming pretty soon!

"And it's always there, in the lower right hand corner, just waiting to suck."

That's it.

They need to start World War III tomorrow, level this planet, and start completely over.

Because apparently the human race has ran completely out of original ideas.  >:(

Do you have any idea how much Ecstasy you'd have to drop to make a "Family Circus" movie enjoyable?  You'd have to feel like you were floating in your own serene bubble universe to keep from chewing your nails off...and then your fingertips!

BTW, Whatever happened to "Steve Roper & Mike Nomad"?

Will the Family Circus movie consist of Billy trapsing all over the neighbourhood?

Follow the dotted lines to box office bomb.  I like FC, but I don't think it would work as a film, as the comic is best known as a one panel, what story line could Bill Keane possibly come up with to fill 2h?

Well since all the characters' heads are oval shaped, maybe the father takes up a job in an egg factory.

The climax of the film is a catchy song-and-dance number where all those eggs come to life and sing "Every Egg is Special".  Even the Grandparents will join in the revelry from their clouds above...  8)

"Peanuts" was insipid and bland.  I didn't find it very witty and I found the overall message depressing:  Poor Charlie Brown.  He tries.  He falls.  He gets up and tries again.  He falls.  He gets up again.  It's not inspiring, it's depressing. 

Charlie Brown should have taken the EST training!

Why not just make a Hi and Lois movie while they're at it?

Or Beetle Bailey?

Or The Wizard of Id?

Or B.C.?

Or Ziggy?

Or Blondie?

You see the can of worms this is opening?

I implore each and every one of you, do NOT see the Family Circus movie, even if you have kids.

This movie needs to BOMB, and it needs to BOMB HARD. It needs to bomb so hard that Hollywood has deep reservations about ever again making a movie adaptation out of a newspaper comic.


Of course my luck, it'll be the next freakin' Toy Story or something.  :P

If they did "The Born Loser", Brutus P. "Thorny" Thornapple would be played by Danny Devito , Gladys "Hornet" Thornapple would be played by Rosie O'Donnel, and Rancid W. "Rank" Veeblefester would be played by Billy Bob Thorton.

What about "Pearls Before Swine"?

Bazooka Joe Bubble Gum in assorted flavors. Not only do you get everyone's favorite Original flavor bazooka gum, but also the two newest flavors Tropical and Strawberry. Bazooka is famous for their great tasting long lasting flavor of bubble gum and for the Bazooka Joe comic that comes in each piece of gum.
