• And this film is being remade for TV why?

• Brad Paisley as Georg? Reba McEntire as the Baroness? Dolly Parton as Mother Superior?

• They aren't really remaking the film, they are doing a live broadcast of the musical. I know, fine line, but they really are two different animals in the end. The casting of Underwood could either be genius on the level of Reba in Annie Get Your Gun, or it could be a disaster. Aftr all, Underwood has very little acting experience, and probably no theatrical experience except for high school. Having her do something like this live in front of millions, under the unforgiving stare of the cameras, could be Liz and Dick levels of badness.

• Cee Lo Green as Captain Von Trapp

• they are using the Broadway script which means the two songs for the Baroness will be included. Holding out hope that "An ordinary Couple" will be included but I know it won't due to the popularity of that song that replaced it in the film.

• I could play Liesl!

  Lindsay starting in on her second quart of vodka for the day.

• Bo Bice as Max.

• Sound Of Music 2013: Autotune in the Alps!

• Russell Crowe as Reverend Mother

• The surviving member of Milli Vanilli as Marni Nixon.

• Charlie Daniels as Mother Superior

• Cowboy Troy as Rolfe The Nazi.

• Adam Lambert makes a triumphant return to Musial threaten as Gay.org Von Trapped.

• I keep reading the thread title as: Carrie Underwood to play Maria in NBC's "The Squid and the Whale".

• Ms. Underwhelm will have to prove herself, that's for damn sure. Didn't DL fave Marie Osmond play Maria once and reportedly was surprisingly good?

• Nothing can top the original.

• In this version, will they say how strict she was with her kids, forbiding them to go out, mary, once they were in America (Vermont)? How it was all about family survival. The eldest daughter desobeyed in order to have a boyfriend at 29. Will they show how she sent another daughter to be treated at an hopsital where she got electroshocks because she was in depression? No? Oh. Too bad for the kids. Lets's sing together Leh-dee-o-deh-leh-dee-o-deh-leh-o-o!

• Nowaday, an Austrain singing family would smack of Eurotrash.

• The Beekman Boys are doing a cameo as the Lonely Goatherds.

• They can recruit directly from Fox News for the Nazis.
