I loved fantasy island too I was little though when it played. I definitely want to see it but it is going to be a rented one.

I am tired of Hollywood lacking the creativity to create new movies and constantly ripping off tv shows. RARELY is the movie any good.

You got that right. Who will play Tatoo? That mini-me guy from Austin Powers?

Do you all know the original Tatto committed suicide? Sad...I remember watching this when I was VERY young...born in 1979...I don't really remember enough of it to tune back in though.
