Was the Jetsons TV show Racist?

As always on the Monday blog, the Weekend Box Office Results:


  1. The Devil Inside
  2. Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol
  3. Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows
  4. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011)
  5. Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked
Now onto the news for the day:
  • Now this is only a rumor and maybe a good one at that, but Bradley Cooper might be Lex Luthor in Superman: Man of Steel.
  • New Line Cinema wants to make a Horrible Bosses Sequel? Right now the original cast is back for it. Which means it might be the same story over again. The only this could turn out good is if the they change characters (which already has not happened) or change the story so that they help other people get rid of their Horrible Bosses. I could see this being good, but not with the same story line.
  • Bridesmaids 2 might happen without  Kristen Wiig. Which if this happens the movie will focus on  Melissa McCarthy’s character Megan. Either way I think it would be a funny movie.
  • Les Misérables could be an amazing movie remake.  Hugh Jackman will play  Jean Valjean, Anne Hathaway will play  Fantine,   Russell Crowe will play Javert. I saw the play back in High School and this could end up being a good remake.  Les Misérables was originaly made into a movie back in 1998 with  Liam Neeson, Geoffrey Rush, and Uma Thurman.
  • Matthew Vaughn in talks with unknown person to write and direct Kick-Ass 2: Balls to the Wall.
  • Tim Burton wants to direct a live-action  Pinocchio (Yet another remake) and have Robert Downey Jr. as Gepetto.
  • Kanye West is the  artistic supervisor for the Live Action Jetsons movie. Finally, almost 20 years after the Flintstones movie was made there is a Jetsons movie being made. Now my only question is, will  the movie be as racist as the show? Notice there was only white people in the show.
Thanks for reading today's post, as always leave a comment down below about anything or the question of the day, which is:
