Looks like they're doing a remake of the Pink Panther series, with Steve Martin now playing the role of Clouseau. Kevin Kline's now in the role of the police chief, and Beyonce will play a pop star (surprise!) who will be the love interest. Jean Reno will play Clouseau's sidekick.

Well, it's got to be better than the remake with Benigni, but still, Steve Martin's got some big shoes to fill. Why mess with the original? Nobody can replace Peter Sellers.

Some of the Pink Panther films were better than others, admittedly. At times, they relied too much on pure slapstick and physical comedy for my taste. But, "A Shot in the Dark" is one of my alltime favorite comedies; I don't think I've ever laughed harder than when watching this movie. If anyone here hasn't seen this movie, I highly recommend they find a copy and watch it. The ineptitude of Clouseau is genius.
