- NextGenXbox, on 06/17/2009, -4/+78This movie doesn't need to be made.
- inactive, on 06/17/2009, -4/+61Thank you God that Sean Penn is out of this.... hopefully they'll sh-tcan the whole project.
- regularsteven, on 06/17/2009, -1/+46Simon Pegg in a Farrelly Brothers film could be something fantastic
- RudeTurnip, on 06/17/2009, -1/+25Sean Penn would have gone full retard...you never go full retard.
- Ismith988, on 06/17/2009, -17/+35sean penn isn't that great of an actor anyway
- offrdbandit, on 06/17/2009, -7/+22Not to mention he's a complete douchebag.
- inactive, on 06/17/2009, -2/+15Hollywood is pathetic. make something new and original. LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKES!
This will suck like all the other remakes. - noupsell, on 06/17/2009, -1/+12Moe! Larry! The Cheese!
- CTK14A, on 06/17/2009, -1/+10Vic Mackey isn't playing Curly this time?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czu2_WPCYz0 - smedrick, on 06/17/2009, -0/+9Giamatti would rock that role.
- emailowndme, on 06/17/2009, -0/+8please please please be simon pegg!
- MatlasK, on 06/17/2009, -4/+11Penn being removed from any situation increases it's value exponentially.
- AmazingSteve, on 06/17/2009, -2/+9He never learned the lesson that you NEVER go full retard.
- Fallout911, on 06/17/2009, -3/+9What idiot would cast Penn in a comedic role?
He's clearly in love with himself, and is incapable of self derogatory comedy.
Good riddance. - Moonman13, on 06/17/2009, -1/+7Zach Galifianakis is creepy without a beard.
- MalachiConstant, on 06/17/2009, -2/+8Correction... Zach Galifianakis is Seth Galifianakis without a beard.
- LooseCannon1, on 06/17/2009, -1/+6To me, Sean Penn will ALWAYS be a stooge.
- Swallowthebird, on 06/17/2009, -0/+4Ricky Gervais anyone?
- akrondude, on 06/17/2009, -1/+5oh, look! another movie that doesn't need made!
- inactive, on 06/17/2009, -1/+5Thank God. Did anybody really think Penn could pull off a Three Stooges bit? Hell no. This movie has now turned from a guaranteed disaster into only a possible disaster.
- Coffeedemon, on 06/17/2009, -1/+4What the hell would he be doing in this anyway? I think he takes himself way too serious to be one of the stooges. Maybe Moe, but even that is a stretch. For that matter what the hell are they doing making a 3 Stooges movie in this day and age? Hasn't that ship sailed about 20 years ago?
- danwallace, on 06/17/2009, -0/+3Nah, Rush and Beck would never tour together... and I've never even heard of O'Reilly.
- cselph, on 06/17/2009, -1/+4Obviously they're not giving thought to the actual role and are just going for blockbuster names.
- Number23, on 06/17/2009, -1/+4The whole project stinks of flop sweat.
- DouglasQ, on 06/17/2009, -1/+4How do you like that for a slice of fried gold?
- timothycrash01, on 06/17/2009, -2/+5You're right - he totally sucked in Colors, State of Grace, Carlitos Way, Sweet and Low Down, Milk, and Dead Man Walking. He's a regular Rob Sneider when it comes this acting thing.
/s - petebot, on 06/17/2009, -0/+3Fugees and Funyuns
- absurdist, on 06/17/2009, -1/+4Some projects are simply unnecessary. Like this one. This is going to stink worse than a week-old salmon stored under the bed.
- MRintheKeys, on 06/17/2009, -1/+4Actually, Pegg -- Carey -- Sandler in the same movie and I think you are on to something there.
I don't see how that movie just couldn't be funny. It could be set during the bubonic plague and it'd still be hilarious.
- wakeb791, on 06/17/2009, -0/+2At least Tugg Speedman's not the only one who didn't learn.
- petebot, on 06/17/2009, -0/+2Anybody remember the god awful "Laurel and Hardy" movie with Bronson Pinchot? This makes absolutely no sense to me. None.
- DiscoUnderpants, on 06/17/2009, -2/+4In my imagination I can see this project going wrong in many more way than I can see it going right.
- GRANDPAMUNSTER, on 06/17/2009, -0/+2Chris Farley would have made a great Curly.
- palehorse864, on 06/17/2009, -2/+4Possibly one of the greatest classic stooges shorts. Disorder in the Court

One of the best Shemps. The phonebooth cracks me up

Another great shemp.

Afidalah will get the map by hukacrook as surely as my name is Jinaruhma. - CoreyHalliwell, on 06/17/2009, -0/+2Today's Movie Making Process:
1) Decide to Bring back old stories and characters. If the story can't be added to, make a prequel.
2) ???
3) Profit - GrodyChamp, on 06/17/2009, -0/+2This movie is a terrible idea. Just casting Penn in the first place is an indication of suck
- akrondude, on 06/17/2009, -0/+2any comedy set during the bubonic plague would be funny.
- smedrick, on 06/17/2009, -0/+2He does make a damn good Curly.
- d3dm, on 06/17/2009, -0/+1I'm sorry, but Shemp is not a Stooge as far as I'm concerned. It's Moe, Larry, and Curly. No Shemp and especially no Curly-Joe. The show officially jumped the shark when Shemp/Curly-Joe showed up.
- mikemehak, on 06/18/2009, -0/+1a lot of hate for monty python
- LordBalderdash, on 06/17/2009, -0/+1penn actually bares a decent resemblance to larry. pegg is just awful casting (maybe not as bad as carey as curly, though) and i'd be surprised if pegg was even willing to do it.
a younger david paymer, otoh, would be an absolutely perfect larry. he's got the look, the comic timing, the odd (vaguely creepy) little smile... - dwiezel, on 06/17/2009, -2/+3sean penn sucks! he is communist pig that is banished from my household! let him move to venezuela and work as a male prostitute for chavez.
- civilizedevil, on 06/17/2009, -0/+1Give it to zach
- ShiftyBizniss, on 06/17/2009, -0/+121 Grams, Mystic River
- GRANDPAMUNSTER, on 06/17/2009, -0/+1Add Jack Black to that list.
- GRANDPAMUNSTER, on 06/17/2009, -0/+1The stooges were great, I miss seeing them on TV. It's all about the reality shows now.
- Elranzer, on 06/17/2009, -0/+1Sean Penn only takes roles that he believes will land him an Oscar. He might have believed he'd win an Oscar for a dramatic portrayal of Larry Fine... then learned the movie was going to be a comedy (which rarely wins Oscars) and backed out.
(Too bad cuz he looks JUST like Larry) - vurdillac, on 06/17/2009, -0/+1Sean Penn as Moe would have been perfect. Moe was completely humorless, angry, and self-important. Every joke Curly ever made was answered with a violent outburst. Imagine how Moe would have handled paparazzi and tell me Penn wasn't born for this.
- exscind, on 06/17/2009, -1/+2I'm not seeing any downside here.
