Are you ready for ... a 'Three Men & A Baby' sequel? ("That was rhetorical, boys")
Steve Guttenberg, Tom Selleck and Ted Danson are set to reunite and film a sequel to 1987's Three Men and a Baby. (Because we refuse to quality 1990's Three Men and a Little Lady as actually existing.)
The working title: Three Men and a Bride, according to WENN.com. Disney is developing the film, in which their "baby" Mary would be given away as a bride.
“That’s going to be a smash. A smash hit. They’re bringing everybody back for that," Guttenberg told WENN. “Nobody knows about it. I’m the first to talk about it.”
(Is that anything like the first people to talk about seeing Ringo Starr's face in a droplet of water? Because that hasn't worked out all the well either.)
Guttenberg also claims to want to sequels for Police Academy, Cocoon and Short Circuit.
“They’re surefire hits and I think they’re good for the world," he says.
Okay, okay. Stop laughing. Maybe Guttenberg is right. We loved those flicks when we were kids. We liked all of Guttenberg's flicks in the '80s, from Can't Stop The Music to Diner to Bad Medicine and even High Spirits.
Wait ... Maybe it's really Steve Guttenberg who's good for the world!
(By the way, extra credit for anyone naming the movie I'm quoting at the top with the "rhetorical" line.)

Guttenberg needs to make a comeback!! The world is ready and waiting. Even though I couldn't stand Three Men and a Baby when it came out.

Yes, more Guttenberg! The world has taken a nasty,evil, hostile turn ever since he fell from the ranks of the "A" leading men list. Selleck needs to bring back the porno mustache and we could always admire another Danson toupe.
This movie needs to be made now!
OK doctor, I am ready for my meds now.....

It might not be such a bad idea. With the right script of course.

Can't stop the music!!!
CLASSIC!
The only thing remotely entertaining was seeing Valerie Perrine topless in a Hot Tub.
Although.....Rubix Cubed might learn MilkShake by the Village People.
