Pedro: The Movie

So, I was just surfing the BMP website and came across this:

http://www.pedrothemovie.com

I'm not sure if this is old news or not, but I think it's neat that they are making a film about the life of San Francisco's Pedro Zamora. I think it'll be very interesting to see.

Wow, looks interesting. Seems like MTV and BMP are going back to their roots. I'll keep posted on this.

My only qualm is the casting of pretty people to play everyone. When RW was on back then, they cast decent-looking people, average people you could relate to, not the bottle blondes and frat types of today. I wish the movie's casting were more reflective of that.

OOOh. I really hope so. That would be amazing.

I'm right there with you on that one. MTV is going to hell in a hand basket.

That is exactly what I was thinking. If you look at the older casts, they were more relatable in every aspect.

Personally, I'm a bit agitated that they're making this film. Sorry, but I just have a hard time believing that Jonathan Murray's greedy ass is going to do this justice. I mean look at the cast for the movie? Did y'all see "Puck"? WTF?

I have to agree with everything said here. That cast looks nothing like the actual cast (except maybe Rachel.) That is definitely not Puck!

its a movie! the cast is merely portraying their characters. There have been MANY movies where the person being portrayed in a movie looks nothing like the actor/actress.
