I thought you meant a Peter Pan remake, but then I read the article. Rufio was an awful character in Hook and a movie about him would be a disaster.

Anyone ever figure out why he's named after a drug?
Is it not sad that in this time, we are more surprised by acts of love than acts of hate?

Maybe we can get a mashup wherein Rufio, Boss Nass, and Deuce Bigelow all go on a road trip, or some bullshit like that and are menaced by the cast of Battlefield Earth. Fingers crossed...

Why can't they leave old movies well alone? Hook certainly does not need a sequel/prequel/what ever kind of film they might be planning.
Ars superior est vita hominum.
"We pop out and come into the world and music is there. We didn't invent it - it's all organised in the atmosphere by divinity or whatever. It's a miracle." - John Williams-
I think music is a stream of some kind. It could be blood. It could be water. It could be ether. Whatever it is it seems to be a living, organic force that’s in motion, that serves humanity and is part of humanity and part of what describes us as humans. We sing, play, dance, all the things that we do. And there is a vibrant and great literature we have been given. ... As musicians, we join the stream. We swim in the stream with all the other millions of music makers. It’s a life force, a strong one, surrounding us and we are part of it. -John Williams-

They should've just went and do the two sequels: Line and Sinker.
If you put John Williams in a dryer, you get Jerry Goldsmith! You get the downside version!

Didn't you hear? Hans Zimmer's gonna score this thing! Although he's a little busy so he asked Ramin Djawadi to do the score.

What's with all the negativity, here? You guys are all dicks! Rufio is easily one of the most badass character in recent years, and you don't want a film about him? You deserve to be puked on!

Dante Basco is a good actor but most people will certainly remember him this days for his talent as a voice actor. He went down the route that Mark Hamill went.

This movie could be interesting if they use exactly the same world, same neverland, same Jolly Roger, same indian village and same costumes.
Personnally, i'm positive on this project.

I think Dante Basco is just upset his turn as Rufio didn't spark his major motion picture career the way he wanted.
Adam Lambert would play a much better Rufio than Dante Basco at this point. It's all about the eyeliner. Rufio draws his special powers from his eyeliner.

That's almost like someone coming up with the idea to reboot the Back To The Future films, which I hope to god they never do.

Rufio is not the least-liked character. He is the subject of the most important part of Hook's fanarts. A lot of people try to make his costume for Halloween or for conventions. Rufio is popular.
And Hook is not the least-liked movie of Spielberg. Hook is a classic, all childs who discovered Hook grew up and they got some inspirations from that. (For example, Pogo and his remix and recently, Skrillex).
And this movie could be a good hope to see more things on Hook.

You wouldn't see a subtle plan if it painted itself purple and danced naked on top of a harpsichord, singing "Subtle Plans Are Here Again."

And they made lots of films about him! Exactly! So, I say: let them do this film!

Let's see... in order: yes he is; he probably isn't but who cares either way; no they don't; no he isn't; true; false; unlikely; and I certainly hope not.
I like elements of Hook, but it is a painfully bad movie in places. And there will not be a prequel to it just because the douche who played Rufio wants there to be one; that's not how the business works, thankfully. (Imagine that: being thankful for the way Hollywood works... Oh well, it had to happen eventually.)

Everyone's favorite aspect of Hook: Julia Roberts holding up instruction cards for the audience. (laugh, cry, applause, ...)

Julia Roberts is terrible in that movie. Almost as bad as Dustin Hoffman, who is nowhere close to as bad as Rufio.
