The Honeymooners Movie
Why did the studio feel the need to make this movie? What would the reaction be if there was a "Goodtimes" or "The Cosby Show" movie made with all white characters? It's not the fact so much that this is an all black "Honeymooners" so much as the fact that an all black cast changes the genre from "comedy" to "black comedy" which is a seperate genre not to be confused with "dark comedy".
It seems a bit insulting to the original cast.

Re: The Honeymooners Movie
Almost as bad as the Bad News Bears remake.
