Who would want to read a book with more details about the movie and have a video game featuring losers?

Lol, olivia!

Actually Olivia, the movie just might die, because I looked up the actors that are supposed to play the 'Hardy Men' (Ben Stiller and Tom Cruise, right?) and it doesn't mention the movie at all in their filmography records on Wikipedia.

I guess I just feel that as long as the idea is floating around, it's possible *puke face*

I've said it before and I'll say it again, if there had already been a Hardy Boys movie I wouldn't mind the idea of The Hardy Men, but if this is going to be a lot of people first impression of the brothers...no way! Plus, people might not even get it if they aren't introduced to The Hardy Boys first.

This has happened to planed moves before. For a short while, they have a chance of being made, then they have been  cancilled. Tom Cruise and Ben Stiller better deal with the fact that this is not going to work. Even if it is made critics will complain about the plot and it will be on the worst moves list.

Here's two pages each of better Franks and Joes:

I find that critics often give high ratings to movies that actually suck. And since it?s suppose to be a dumb comedy (and it will certainly achieve that), there?s actually a chance of praise as it will fulfill that expectation ::)

Anyways, thanks for the links. I recognize most of the actors, and the one guy actually just came to General Hospital last year.

Quick note: let?s all remember that these are just headshots. A person?s looks can almost change with a particular demeanor: portrayal is key.

My choices in chronological order:

Frank:

1. First page, third row, fourth guy (blue sweater)
2. First page, fourth row, third guy (red shirt)

If they stopped smiling, I could probably imagine them as Frank. Ha.

Joe:

1. First page, first row, second guy (white jacket with red stripe)
2. First page, fourth row, third guy who is the same as the second guy, I think (white-ish/gray shirt)
3. Second page, first row, first two photos who are the same guy (b&w, blue shirt)

Obviously the second and/or the third choice would be an older Joe.

I would pair:

Frank #1 and Joe #3

Frank #2 and Joe #1

If the movie is that way then that is the total opposite of the books.

Take this to the "Sherlock Holmes" topic, in the Movies forum, okay?
