The Rolling Stones Movie Musical
The Rolling Stones Movie Musical
In perhaps the first instance of Hollywood really lazily attempting to copy a successful film by doing a half-assed, predictable follow-up film, the creators of “Across The Universe” announced they are setting their sights on a Rolling Stones musical:
Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais, writers of last year’s Beatles-inspired musical “Across the Universe,” are working on a new animated film. This time, though, they’re setting their sights on the music of another legendary 60’s rock band – the Rolling Stones.
Like most animated films, the duo said that Ruby Tuesday would probably take several years to complete. The film will feature a “pretty hip” style of CGI animation, and will be made in Paris, La Frenais told MovieWeb.com.
Hmm… A Rolling Stones musical interpreting all the songs really literally and riding the momentum of “Across The Universe”? That might be a great movie idea if it weren’t the the exact plan applied for “Across the Universe”. Folks, we should have a serious discussion about creativity and originality. However, I bet that the box-office sales will definetely give you a lesson.
