Why not email a copy of the letter to Larry? He would probably enjoy reading it and he might even forward it to the appropriate people.golfmobile wrote:I don't know that we will EVER hear anything in response -- not like Larry Manetti's brief responses when we email him, huh? But at least we know Larry reads what we may have written to him.

Good job on that letter!
Perhaps this might get Larry thinking of angles in the industry to work if he knows and they know there is a grassroots movement against the planned film. I mean, have these producers even heard any sort of voice from the public against the film? Probably a resounding not. Look how the voice of fans resulted in Jericho coming back from cancellation for one more go.

I'm sorry to report that -- Brian Grazer did not even receive, much less read, our suggestions.
The letter was "returned to sender" and I got it back unopened today, with the notation "Unable to Accept -- Attempted - Not Known -- Unable to Forward."
So I don't know if this was a false address for him or what. And you may recall the email I sent got bounced back too, and now the "hard copy" letter came back.
We are voices crying in the wilderness with no one to hear us . . . .
I had sent an email to Larry Manetti with a short synopsis, but he replied,"I'm sorry but I can't take any script ideas as Universal has all right to it. I appreciate the thought."
Disappointedly,

"Portside, buddy."
Damn, this sucks! Good on ya for the effort though.
I wonder if Larry can get the address information for us. Or perhaps would he even give us any information for contacts. Surely this wouldn't be against any rules on his part. He must know somebody.

Sorry . . . his commercials are on what seems like every 10 minutes during Mets games. That's the ONLY reason why I'd know a Hollywood hairstylist.
Really . . .

That's funny Steve, the spiked look has got more and more severe over the years too. Much like he's been plugged into the mains! Isn't he the head of Imagine Entertainment and a long time buddy of Ron Howard?Steve wrote:Like I said before...he is a spiked headed wiener.

Movie cast/plot
(reposted from another thread)
If the original cast wasn't used, then the whole premise of the Magnum character would have to change! He would have to be a vet of Desert Storm instead of 'Nam. Kinda hard to have someone who's only 43 be a "Nam vet. Then of course the tropical setting of Hawaii wouldn't make any sense for the military flashbacks, etc.
Now here is the plot twist that I would like to see. Magnum's daughter is now a cop and is accused in a criminal matter (murder?) and Magnum and the team get together to investigate and clear her. It could even be the old arch nemesis Kwan Ki who has set her up! How many of you would like to see THAT as a plot line??

I've been wondering about using one of those petition sites. But there was a link to a petition here somewhere...and I went there...scrolled through THOUSANDS of names! Have no idea how that info gets to who needs to have it...or who needs to have it.
I don't know. I just don't know.

Isn't the ocean beautiful at sunset? So soft....so peaceful...so romantic!
