Dudes, I’m just too tired to fight the establishment any longer.  So I’m just moving straight into acceptance mode.  Another 80′s movie is getting a sequel.  Sigh.

Hollywood has decided that we need to get a follow-up of the 1988 cult classic Heathers and despite all the denials, Wynona Ryder insists that the project is happening.  “Whatever you hear, there is a sequel in the works. I swear to God.  But for some reason the writer Dan Waters and director Michael Lehman don’t want to talk about it. I’ve been wanting to do a sequel forever. There is a story, and Christian [Slater] has agreed to come back as a kind of Obi-Wan character.”

So there you have it, a Heathers continuation confirmation straight from the pill-popping, scarf-pilfering, jewelry-losing, I’ve Exhausted All Hyphenates, whack job, Winona.

    If the writer and director don’t want to talk about it, maybe Winona should shut up about it before they recast her ass.

    This can’t be happening. No, no, no! Heathers is sublime. It is perfection. It came out right as I was entering high school and I have probably watched it a thousand times. This will break my heart because it will suck. Who would they cast? The no-talent MTV crowd, the uber annoying Disney crowd, the bitter and not as cool as they think Twilight crowd? It just can’t happen.

    Fuck me gently with a chainsaw, this looks like the kind of thing that might induce me to spew red, white and blue.

    What would the plot be though? And more to the point, didn’t Christian’s character die at the end?

    I miss the fact that she barely had the career she deserves due to her penchant for kleptomania.

    Is it just me or does Wynona look particularly elfish in this picture?
