... a hit and its re-boot will approach zero."  So, perhaps they should market "This Means War" as a reboot of "The Vow," because audiences have, by now, forgotten "The Vow," which is so "second week of February."  Maybe "Ghost Rider 2" should really be thought of as a reboot of, oh, I don't know, how about "Safe House"?

MTV: producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura says MBAY will direct [TFRM4] which is going to be a "reboot" Antibody Feb 13, 17:47

Really??? {nm} thatpj Feb 13, 17:56

I am so glad they've hired Michael Bay to replace Michael Bay for the re-boot! Michael Bay was awful, but Michael Bay will be a fresh take! {nm} second gary Feb 13, 17:59

Michael Bay's blog: [TFRM4] to be released on June 29, 2014. Paul2k Feb 13, 19:25

DMac, this blog says that MWAHL is confirmed as part of the cast of PAING. {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Feb 13, 19:44

I posted both these things below. ComingSoon.net broke both these stories, before MTV, before Deadline. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Feb 13, 19:50

Well done then! TWW > Nikki Finke ;) {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Feb 13, 19:51

I think we need a law that says you must wait at least 15 years before remaking a film. {nm} mrbeankc Feb 13, 19:33

wife says the cartoons were kinda like that anyway...kept starting anew {nm} tealfan Feb 13, 19:34

"Reboot" is an improper term for TFRM4.. Di Bonaventura it will be more like GIJO2 than SPID4. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Feb 13, 19:50
