A new review from Ain't It Cool Reviews
dukesfan1979 replied to EvilErnie13's topic in Dukes of Hazzard Movies
Hey Ya'll Havent posted in awhile, was just checking out the reviews about the new Dukes movie and I gotta tell ya, Im really getting tired of all the bashing. I dont care what these people say about the new movie, Im gonna go see the movie and have some fun. Just the fact that the General Lee has finally made it to the big screen is exciting enough for me. The original cast and show will always be my favorite, but im still looking forward to the new movie. Take care ya'll... -
Cars we'd like to see on the big screen
dukesfan1979 replied to Brian Coltrane's topic in Dukes of Hazzard Movies
I wouldnt mind seeing a nice 1969 Plymouth Roadrunner in the movie....same chassis as the General Lee Charger and still a nice looking car...I think would go great with the other movie cars. -
You know, Ive been a dukes fan for 26 years now and still to this day when I see The General Lee take to the air, It still thrills me like Im 10 years old! Thanks for taking the time for making this "mini movie" and im sure Alan Jackson would surely get a kick out of it! Thanks again!

Why have they Changed the part of Boss Hogg?
dukesfan1979 replied to sam29's topic in Dukes of Hazzard Movies
Don't worry y'all, from the information I have been gathering, It seems like we are in for a real treat. The producers are trying to make a movie that is fun just like Smokey and The Bandit was, so lets all take a deep breath, relax, wait for the movie come out and I think all will be well in Hazzard County. Take care y'all.... -
When did the show start using model cars for stunts?
dukesfan1979 replied to jaydee311's topic in Dukes of Hazzard Movies
Speaking of tail lights, did you know that some 1968 Chargers were used in the series also. The 68 Chargers had four round tail lights and a front grille without the center section and slightly different front fenders. The Warner Bros Mechanics fitted the 68 models with the 69 taillight assemblies and 69 grilles and there you have it. -
When did the show start using model cars for stunts?
dukesfan1979 replied to jaydee311's topic in Dukes of Hazzard Movies
Yes sir, I am positivley sure that model cars were used in the final season of the Dukes of Hazzard. I dont know if you have any of the final season on VHS but if you look closely at the jump sequences, you can defenitley tell that the cars are models. They dont have any suspension whatsoever and they land like toys....I guess the budget was getting tight in the last season. I think they were having a hard time buying Dodge chargers too. After all they went through 309 1969 Dodge Chargers. Thats alot of General Lees. -
Sean William Scott playing Bo looks a little crazy to me in these pics.... kinda like he missed his morning medication....

sorry for knocking the new movie to shreds !
dukesfan1979 replied to dukefan's topic in Dukes of Hazzard Movies
Hey Ya'll, I have to agree about M.C. Gainey playing Roscoe. I only saw one pic of him, but this dude looks like he can spit nails. One thing is for sure, The new Roscoe aint gonna be playin around with the new Duke boys! You can also bet on Burt Reynolds playing a more meaner and maybe sometimes silly Boss Hogg. I really think the powers that be are going to make these characters for the new movie way more serious. Johnny Knoxville said that they are making a "more macho" big screen Dukes movie so in many ways this movie will be way different. I have to admit im not really happy about these changes, but I really want to see a quality movie made. As far as the new General Lees, they look really awesome so we wont be disappointed in the area of the General. I have to be honest here, Im really waiting to see the General Lee and the other cars in the movie!!!! And to "Dukefan", all i can say is this is one of the nicest places to be on the net and we are ALL true Dukes fans here, I value everyones opinion, so Im willing to listen to anyone give their thoughts on the new movie. Thsis is one place where we can truly all get along. Take care -
sounds like a plan to me...travis would do a great job....but the original song, id like to hear it somewhere in the movie.....
-
If Jessica sings some songs for the soundtrack, she better get her "twang" in gear....Oh god please put some honest to goodness country singers on this album!!!!! Hey ol' Waylon we miss ya buddy!!

Kid Rock may just do the theme song for the movie....He is a big Dukes fan like us and he does own a General Lee.......I saw it on TV. So most likely if hes singing "good ol' boys" at his concerts...he might be running it by his audience to see how they react to it....so I say its highly possible that Kid will do the theme song....take care ya'll

I think the new movie will share some differences with the TV series and I think we as Duke fans will be suprised maybe even shocked at what we see in the big screen movie. In all honesty, I feel that Burt Reynolds and Willie Nelson will be the "glue" that will hold the new movie together. I heard the new movie has a budget between 45 and 50 million dollars so we can expect awesome stunts, and a high quality movie otherwise....take care ya'll

From what I have been hearing ya'll, we are going to see the build process and painting right down to the Confederate flag on the roof and the 01 on the doors in the movie so we can actually watch the General Lee come to life! I really wish diamler Chrysler Corp. would build a actual 2 door rear wheel drive Charger for 2006 with some styling cues from the 68 and 69 chargers. Sorta like what Ford did with the new Mustang. If they build a 4 door Charger, I'll be heart broken. Take care ya'll...

Song Idea For the Dukes of Hazzard movie soundtrack
dukesfan1979 replied to dukesfan1979's topic in Dukes of Hazzard Movies
Hey Ya'll, When I posted about making "copperhead road" a song for the new Dukes movie, I honestly didnt listen closely to the last verse of the song. A major mistake on my part and I do appoligize. Although a very good song, most likely Steve Earle would not re-work the song anyway. Hows this for an idea.... Alan Jackson writing a new song or two for the soundtrack....I think his sound will definitley fit perfectly.....and also as a new Balladeer, I was thinking of none other than Hank Williams Jr. he's got the voice for the part and he is a living legend in country music just like ol' Waylon was. I would like to hear what ya'll think....see ya later Daniel
