I agree...don't buy it! Why do they insist on changing what was already great? Also, why do they have to keep getting these pretty boys to play country boys? Another question, how can this be a prequel and Willie Nelson play uncle Jesse again? He looks even older than he did in the first crappy movie they made! It wouldn't surprise me if they did make Cooter gay in the new movie, after all they aren't putting the flag on the car and thats about as gay as it gets.
