There’s a suggestive headline I’d like to take back. But I can’t. All is fair in the world of bait-and-switch (that’s not true). The switch is that seeing comedian Zach Galifianakis bring his unique sensibilities to a role made famous by wacko-man Don Knotts isn’t such a bad idea. And a remake of The Incredible Mr. Limpet easily fits into the “it could be worse” category of Hollywood rehashings.

Finally a remake that no one will care about – except for the People for the Ethical Treatment of Don Knotts. And what DON’T they get upset about these days? Am I right or am I right?

Universal Pictures has announced a planned big screen adaptation of the board game Candyland. Seriously.
