i saw it last night and it was an entertaining movie...........as far as hogg be'n fat or wahtever..............i think if they tried to replicate the charaters too much it would have just made the movie suck. they did have a good selection of todays actors to fill the parts and mind sets of the original characters though.

jessica simpson...........mmmmmmm, enough said

again it was entertaining and iwould recommend it, if you want more comedy, i'd go see wedding crashers, thats funny!

TxDiesel007: C.B. will definitely go down in history as D.D. Too bad she aged waaaaaaay to fast.

I'll wait till it comes out on video and see it. 10 bucks per person for the movies is just too much.

Couple of things that stike me as odd/lack of continuity with the TV series.

Boss Hogg - was short, fat and bald. Doesn't appear that way in the movie w Burt Reynolds.

Daisy - was a brunette in the TV show and. Appeared smarter than the blondie in the movie.

From what I've seen of the movie (commercials and "news" shows about it)
pretty much anything (fence posts, trees, tire tracks, etc) appears "smarter" than the "blond" in the movie.

I'll wait until it comes on Cable.......then find something else to do that night.

I saw the D of H movie last night. I was quite entertained.

I thought J.S, was very, very hot.


I thought they sort of went out of their way to make the characters EVEN MORE redneck?

All in all it was very good.

I thought it was going to be pretty dumb but I found it entertaining. For those of you that are torn on watching it at the theaters I would say go check it out.

bo and luke never cussed in the original

they were never such bad rednecks

the general lee's doors were suppose to be welded shut

boss hog is supposed to be fat

rosco is suppose to be an idiot

the list goes on and on...

Horrible remake of a tv classic..


They might as well bring I Love Lucy back and put christina aguilera in as Lucy with snoop dogg as Ricky ricardo.

to the guys who have already seen it, would you recommend taking a mentally handicapped adult (appitude of a 7 year old) to see it? He watches the old series every day like clockwork and begs, "when are we going to see it at the movies? I don't want to miss it."
I'd hate to have to tell him no on account of too much sexual inuendo or because the Duke boys curse, lie or steal. He emulates what he see's so we have to be careful.

Glad to see I'm not the only one. I mean, I can recognize that lots of blonds ARE attractive, but somehow there's a disconnect that keeps me from being attracted.

That's about the best assessment I've heard!

Soooo does anyone want to field my earlier question above or am I to assume the answer is "No, don't do it"?
