AHA! Moriarty admits that the HORNET still buzzes!!!

Hey folks, Harry here... It seems that my calling Moria... um... Drew out on my last GREEN HORNET posting has made him fess up. It takes a big man to admit his old boss was right. Truth be told, the two of us have always had a tenuous relationship. Once, while rehearsing for the Comedy Central AINT IT COOL Pilot - we realized that Drew couldn't appear on camera with me, because... and this is the absolute God-honest truth... When he looked at me, he had endearing affection for me. That's right. He wanted me. This never threatened me, but I think there was something about his love for me, that created this... this... how do I put it. This. Well, frankly I don't wish to embarrass him, but he knows I'm a fan of THE GREEN HORNET, and frankly - it's astonishing to me that he makes the claim that nobody of his Generation or Younger cares about THE GREEN HORNET or could honestly be a huge fan. Well, Drew was born sometime in the late 50's I believe - so I can't really speak about his generation, but I was born in 1971. Like many kids of the seventies... BRUCE LEE was a big deal. Prior to motion control camera rigs and lazer swords... KUNG FU was the geek thing. Sure, there was STAR TREK... LOGAN'S RUN... That sort of stuff, but really - the cross-platform film thing that was causing mass geeking across cultural barriers was BRUCE LEE. By the time I was 3, the GREEN HORNET movie opened in theaters comprised of footage from various episodes. It's not a great movie, but man... at age 3, I knew ENTER THE DRAGON, FIST OF FURY, CHINESE CONNECTION... My parents were huge honking Bruce Lee geeks. There were toys. There were posters. There were gum cards. There were Kato masks. And the show was shown on TV from time to time in syndication. I really really like THE GREEN HORNET, much more than I liked the Adam West BATMAN. Now that Drew has spoken with Seth Rogen regarding THE GREEN HORNET. Seth basically confirmed what we said, that it was still happening, and they were currently looking for the director for the project. Personally, I'd love to see James McTeigue take on this project. I have to admit, in many ways - this script is the script I'm most curious to take a look at in Hollywood right now. Mainly because I don't really have a handle on what they are doing with the film. I'd love McTeigue to make a Green Hornet film that would just shock us. I know that most of you are thinking of Seth Rogen as that pot head porn obsessed goofy guy from KNOCKED UP and PINEAPPLE EXPRESS and ZACK & MIRI... but I'm getting a notion that Seth is on a path to transform his image and personality in Hollywood. I hear that OBSERVE AND REPORT isn't simply a laugh riot. I hear it's actually quite a dark film. And a very good one at that. It won't at all be the drivel of PAUL BLART - and I hear his turn in FUNNY PEOPLE is surprising as well. I've also heard and if you've seen Seth in interviews recently, he's been working the flab off pretty viciously to get prepared for this role. Let's see what this film is. Right now, it might be something very different from what hearing Seth's name means. That definition could be changing.
