Full House Movie?
Full House was a great little show for what it was. Harmless, “moral of the story” weekly vanilla that also gave some nice laughs from time to time. And now, John Stamos (who will be most remembered as the lucky bastard who got to sleep with Rebecca Romijn on a regular basis) has decided that a Full House movie would be a good idea.
Know what? I don’t disagree with him.
First of all it should be pointed out that the movie version that Stamos envisions would NOT have the original cast. The good folks at Cinema Blend give us this:
This wouldn’t be in the form of a potentially disastrous reunion, though. Instead, Stamos wants a new cast to play the characters. He even has some people in mind: “I see Steve Carell as [Bob Saget’s character] Danny Tanner and Tracy Morgan as [Dave Coulier’s] Joey Gladstone because he’s funny.” Such justification is impossible to argue against. As for the role of Uncle Jesse? Stamos would like to see James Franco take over.
Now don’t shoot me for this, but I think everything he says makes perfect sense.
Look, the CONCEPT of a guy who suddenly finds himself alone with 4 kids, and he has such a strong friendship with a couple of other guys that they agree to move in with him and help him raise his kids is actually really solid. Make it a comedy and it marketable to boot. Add the cast that he’s suggesting and you might actually have a winner on your hands. Think about it… seriously.
Now, keep in mind that NONE of this is official. It’s just Stamos talking which doesn’t really mean anything… but if I were a producer with some money to burn… I’d take a chance on the project. Your thoughts?


I’ve got a casting idea:
Ed Helms = Danny
Zach Galifianakis = Joey
Bradley Cooper = Uncle Jesse
BRILLIANT!
Thanks, John. Let’s do lunch. Haha.
so your saying “hey lets get the cast from the hangover and put them into full house.” as ridiculous as that sounds, that would be funny as hell
I was a fan of the show as a child growing up … and after reading and thinking about this, it would make for a good comedy. The concept of the premise of the TV show does work, and with a good cast, would be good. Nice idea if it ever happened
Call me crazy but I’d like to see it with the original cast, see where everyone is. Maybe DJ having kids could be the big plot or Stephanie’s getting married.
but all the actresses that played the kids in the show are way too old
Not to mention that all of the girls, apart from the Twins, are fat now, and the chick that played the middle sister has a cocaine habit that costed her her marriage and kids.
well the oldest daughter was fat in the show
Fat, Really? From the photos I’ve seen Candace Cameron Bure is slimmer now than when she was on the show. Jodie Sweetin HAD a coke problem and has been sober since 2005. Oh, and she’s not fat either, but definitely bustier! In fact she turned out quite nice! lol

If they could avoid making it as bland as the original show then it could work.
Hmm I will go see it.
WTF THIS IS A HORRIBLE IDEA…..why cause it just is, personally all they would need to do is make a great concept based of the shows idea and lose the cheese by giving it a better title….least not one with kimmy gibler! or w/e her name was
“why cause it just is”
Obviously its not that bad of an idea if you can’t even say why it would be.
NO there are plenty of reasons why i just dont need to make a list of all the reasons why this show sucked.
If you want reasons go to the link that Talbert posted(see below).
John,
you actually thought that Full House was a GREAT show??
The Nostalgic Critic begs to differ:

this guy hits it dead on…..this was a crappy show that pretty much says hack all over it!.
“this guy hits it dead on”
You bet your ass the he does. :-)
Especially when he states this:
“These are the lives of people in picture frames. No real issues, no real dilemas, just a series of cuddly inconviences.”
Yeah, I’d pay good money to see THAT on the big screen.
Was it 4 kids or 3? The olsen twins played the same person.
Right you are
They should really make it 4. I think a huge part of the shows success were the cute little twins. Since everyone is going to remember that, they should just cast twins again. No point in making them play the same character. Should just make them twins in the script. Michelle and Elizabeth Tanner.
But yea, I would only see it if they had some famous people in the cast, but not Ben Stiller or Will Farrell or anyone else that would make it seem like they were just trying to mock what the show was.
I wanna see Family Matters:The Movie with the big guy from Chuck as Carl, Wanda Sykes as Harriett and Denzel Washington as Steve Urkel. LOL!
Full House SUCKED!
please the love of god no full house movie!
When you strip down the general concept like that it reminds me a LOT of Three Men and a Baby…
YEAH!!!!definitly no.
