Get Smart Premieres
The stars of the new big screen movie version of Get Smart were joined by various guests at the Hollywood premiere of their new movie at the Mann Village Theatre in Westwood, CA last night. Here are a few pics from the Get Smart premiere’s red carpet:
As far as movie adaptations of popular (oftentimes classic) TV shows go, the results are usually hit or miss (mostly miss). Off the top of my head, I remember not really liking the movie versions of Bewitched, The Mod Squad, Scooby Doo, The Dukes of Hazzard and The Flintstones. I did like The Brady Bunch, Mission: Impossible, Josie and the Pussycats, Popeye and of course Sex and the City. So really, it’s anyone’s guess if these movie adaptions will turn out worthwhile until they actually get released. I used to love watching Get Smart … it was one of those shows that aired during the day so I could only watch it when I stayed home from school on vacation or when I was sick. It always felt like such a treat to be able to watch the show (most prolly cuz I got to stay home from school). I’m encouraged that they put together a great cast to make the film … and I’ve been liking all the trailers and TV ads that have been released thus far. This movie is deffo on my list of summer movies to see. Steve Carell is a funny, funny man … I think he will make a great Secret Agent Maxwell Smart … at least, that’s my hope.

I think Inspector Gadget was the worst movie adaptation ever! I hope they don’t screw up Fraggle rock either. But I do have high hopes for Get Smart, I think SC was a great choice for Maxwell Smart!
Loves you Trent. You are a sunny part of my day and I love the new site!!! xoxo

Well i thought Steve Carell was the best thing about Bewitched so hopefully it will be the same with Get Smart!

Hated Bewitched…I just hope that they don’t show all of the funny parts in the previews!!!! Otherwise Get Smart looks like a great movie of the summer!
