I mean. Everything about TRIPLETS is dumb: the concept, the conceit, the fact that both of the original leads from TWINS are old now, the fact that they couldn’t get Eddie Murphy… everything.
The film’s sequel, titled Triplets, will reportedly enlist the help of Tracy Morgan to play a third and long list sibling of both Schwarzenegger and DeVito. The script for the film will be written by Dylan Dawson & Lucas Kavner, with production scheduled to begin in January in Boston. The film was initially supposed to star Eddie Murphy, but Reitman mentioned that following his recent success with Coming 2 America, he was too busy to join the film.
The dumbness, it all combines. It feeds on itself. It grows fat with power. TRIPLETS might actually Not Suck, out of sheer spite directed at the uncaring universe that cursed this film with existence.
Well. Probably not. But I’m not even mad, and only a little morbidly curious to see how far this project gets before it violently loses structural integrity. Hopefully, it won’t be until it can paint a theater screen or two.
My first thought is “Dear God, No.” But then I remembered what my Dad told me:
“Never underestimate the Will to be Stupid”
I feel the impending penumbra of Doom.
Interesting idea. And it might have actually worked within a decade after the original.
Now, they’re too old.
