Do dreams really come true?

Arrested Development is coming back, so why can't Freaks and Geeks??

Let's do the math…. An all star cast (i.e. James Franco, Seth Rogen, Jason Segel, Martin Starr, Busy Phillips, Linda Cardellini, and John Francis Daley) + the writing / directing stylings of Judd Apatow and Paul Feig + A HUGE fan base = commercial and critical success explosion!

You can't deny math! Making a Freaks and Geeks film IS a logical thing to do, but will it happen??

When asked about the possibility Feig, who created the show, told reporters:

Too bad! We were REALLY liking what Bridesmaids director Paul Feig had to say about a sequel possibility!

During a recent interview, Jon Hamm opened up about Bridesmaids 2, and he said he doesn't think Kristen Wiig will be up for it:

Oh man! This is GREAT news!

A third Bridget Jones film has been in the works for quite some time, but it finally appears as though the project has snagged a director - and a HIGHlarious one, at that!

Bridesmaids' Paul Feig is reportedly in deep negotiations to helm the flick, and is said to be "beyond keen" to shoot in Londontown!

Amazing! We think he could bring some much-needed HIGHlarity to this, given the laughs he was able to generate in his last project!

We just hope that Renée, Hugh, and Colin all come back - especially since the last one left, despite being cute, left a bit to be desired!

Get to work, guys!

We need that vodka chugging, Chaka Khan-singing ex-singleton back in our life!

Best. News. Everrrrr!

With the success of Kristen Wiig's HIGHlarious comedy Bridesmaids, director Paul Feig says a sequel is very much a possibility.

YES!

Feig, along with one of the very funny stars of the movie, Melissa McCarthy, celebrated the movie's success by "High-fiving and boozing" (as they should've), then sneaked in to a screening of the movie. After seeing how much audiences loved the movie, Feig said:

"Who knows? I mean, it depends how we do in the next couple weeks, but I know there's definitely … it's already been brought up. So, um, you know, when you get a group that's this deep and this good, it's a crime to not use them again. You just want to make sure that you do it as well as you did the first one and try to make it better, even. So, we're up for the challenge."

Well, of course you need the original cast. It wouldn't be the same without them!

And you know what this means? This country is obviously starving for some extremely talented and extremely funny women who can make a hit with a solid plot line and excellent character development.

Bring on the funny ladies!

P.S. Wouldn't a cameo with Tina Fey and Amy Poehler be the best idea ever? We're just throwing that out there….

Before 127 Hours….before Spider-Man….AND before General Hospital, James Franco had a major role on Paul Feig & Judd Apatow's Freaks and Geeks.

During last weekend's Paley Center for Media's annual Paley Fest, a bunch of the Freaks and Geeks team got together, sans Franco, and went on to roast the actor…and NOT entirely in good fun either!

Here's what Judd Apatow had to say after series creator Paul Feig said "there were no drama queens on the show":

"…Except for Franco."

It gets worse, though. According to actress Busy Philipps, who played Franco's girlfriend on the show, James once "threw her to the ground, even though the script didn't call for the action."

Apparently, Franco decided that his character had "maybe been abused by his father," but he never announced this to Philipps, and then during one scene when she lightly slapped him across the face, he freaked out and shouted "Don't you ever [expletive] touch me again!" and then he threw her to the ground, which caused her to run to her trailer in tears.

WTF James? That's really not cool.

We hope we don't start hearing similar reports about you from more recent productions! Sounds like you've probably gotten better since then, but that kind of behavior is unacceptable.

What do U think about these James Franco reports? Do U think that kind of behavior is all completely in the past for him?
