Whatever! '90s classic Clueless is getting a remake

Don't mess with a classic...

 

Clueless, the 1990s teen classic that taught us school grades can always be negotiated, that Alaia is, like, a totally important designer, and the word "kvelling", appears to be getting a remake.

 

Released in 1995 and starring Alicia Silverstone as Cher Horowitz, the impeccably dressed teen who showed us the importance of a computerised walk-in wardrobe, the film was a box office smash and went on to become a cult classic.

 

Twenty-three years later, Paramount Studios is said to have hired Marquita Robinson, a writer and story editor on Netflix's GLOW, to write the script for the reboot, while Girls Trip's Tracy Oliver is set to produce the movie.

 

Oliver tweeted a report on the news and said: "Crazy excited to be producing a *new* take on one of my favorite movies of all time, #Clueless, with the hilarious and super talented @MarqRobinson writing it. As if."

It turns out that Stacy Dash, the African-American actress in the film, was really "Clueless".  After working as a commentator on Fox News, she tried to run as a Republican candidate for Congress from Compton, California.  Compton is 33% African-American and is unsafe due to gang activity.  A month after declaring her candidacy, and after a disasterous TV interview where she really did reveal that she was "Clueless", she terminated her run for Congress. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/reliable-source/wp/2018/03/30/stacey-dash-said-put-up-or-shut-up-when-declaring-her-run-for-congress-a-month-later-shes-out/?utm_term=.4e91f5f3a2c0

"Clueless" describes present day Hollywood and their inability to produce anything that is original and instead depends on unending sequels and unending Marvel comics movies (that all look mind-numbingly the same) in order to maximize profits $$$Cha-Ching$$$. 

Originally is now kicked solely into the realm of obscure film festivals.
