Who Should Have Played Daisy Duke Besides Bimbo Simpson???

[Dale The Bold]

It seems like the entertainment industry lost all sense of what the audience wants. It must come from catering to the decision-makers at the top for too long. What is the purpose of casting such a key role with an established celebrity? Much like singers, actors put their "version" of a classic into a role instead of just delivering what the audience wants to see. Most of the time, it comes across as a cheap remake, much like a Michael Bolton song--tolerable, but the original was much better. We go to see a Dukes of Hazzard movie expecting the Dukes of Hazzard. If they want to reinterpret it, call it something else, the Dukes of Haphazard, for example. If they want to bring us a film that captures the very reason we loved the show, find people who want to make a big first impression in Hollywood. Bo, Luke, and Daisy should have all been cast with unknown, hard-working young actors, of which there is an abundance. Then fill the roles of Jesse, Boss, and Rosco with the big names.

On that same note, independent films are becoming a huge market for a reason. They know what the audience wants. They are closer to the audience, as they haven't sold their souls yet. Mark my words, the next "Titanic" will be from an independent writer and/or director.
