Got $35 Million' Want your Car to star in Miramax's GREEN HORNET' Well then, let's go!

Hey folks, Harry here... Strange world we live in, where prior to having a script, a director or even a star... You have a cry out to Car Manufacturers to pony up $35 million dollars to outfit the Green Hornet with a car to kick ass with.

Without a doubt, the original Chrysler Imperial BLACK BEAUTY that Bruce Lee drove... well, that baby is a legend. But what if VOLVO or VOLKSWAGON ponies up $35 Million, and suddenly we've got The Green Hornet in the back of a Volkswagon Bug? Ok, true... I don't think Miramax would let that happen, but I'm certainly interested to see just what sort of car steps up to the plate.

Personally... If I were Chrysler, this would be a perfect chance to introduce THE HORNET - one, a very stud name for a car - and since it seems that Miramax is willing to make a feature film car ad called THE GREEN HORNET, well... why the hell not. After all, it'll be being driven by Kato - who... most likely will be Jet Li or Donnie Yen or perhaps even Jackie Chan or Chow Yun Fat since those are the top guys with the moves for the role.

Now, all the geeks out in the audience will definitely want to grow up to have a Kung Fu Chauffeur whupping ass for them at every stop, but let's face it... Hiring your own Kung Fu Master to drive you around... ain't very likely, so at best... in your Green Hornet fantasies... You'll just have to be a newspaper editor with a regular driver of a new HORNET. The reason I said Chrysler, is personally... I think they're making the most stylish and cool modern cars domestically speaking. And those car ads set to the inevitable techno remix of THE FLIGHT OF THE BUMBLE BEE... shiiiiiieeeettttt, that's bank.

Of course - if Miramax used all $35 million dollars to create a photorealistic CG Bruce Lee to become Kato... well then, that'd be something rather... um... strange? bizarre? cool? impossible? Hmmmm.... To read the original article Click Here!
