I ... wat?
ReplyDeletestrange, I used to watch that show a hundred years ago, mmm.
ReplyDeleteWait.. what?? Superhero???
ReplyDeleteAre they serious?
ReplyDeleteThis seems like a serious franchise-wrecker.
A few mistakes here:
ReplyDelete1. Turning a which, into a superhero
2. Re-casting the role (Melissa Joan Hart played the role admirably in the show)
3. Re-booting
Hollywood is out of ideas, so they grasp at straws, rebooting anything they can get their hands on.
Uh no!
ReplyDeleteI used to watch it when I was a kid...
ReplyDeleteOh my Salem!
ReplyDeleteOk.... that's interesting.
ReplyDeleteCHA-CHING!
ReplyDeleteHollywood is ready for a new generation of producers and screenwriters. The current generation officially ran out of ideas.
ReplyDeleteReally? This whole premise sounds awful.
ReplyDeleteI ... but ... why ... a witch is a superhero? How did ... who in the superhero movie watching demographic even remembers who Sabrina is anymore? Is Salem going to be her sidekick? Does she carry around a portable cauldron, put her magic book on a Kindle? What in the world would her costume look like?
ReplyDeleteThis is a weird idea.
Happened to watch an episode of Sabrina today from like season 1. She is not a superhero..she's just a young adult trying to figure out the world, not once have they even hinted she is a hero. Also honestly a witch as a superhero is kind of cheap if no one else is using magic =P
ReplyDeleteAre they smoking crack?
ReplyDeleteLOL
I don't know if I really understand the point in this? A superhero?
ReplyDeleteWhy? This sounds ridiculous.
