You may have read the title of this article and thought, "Wait, it's not April Fools Day anymore!" Well, you're correct. This is a serious article on a serious subject, so listen up. According to Deadline, Fox is working on making a live-action film based on Play-Doh! Yup... might as well just be blunt. Also, the site reports that the film will be directed by none other than the director of the upcoming Ghostbuster remake, Paul Feig! You know, ever since it was reported that a film based on the popular Easter candy "Peeps" was in development, I've lost all faith in Hollywood's decision to make films based on popular products. However, The LEGO Movie surprised us, so who's to say a Play-Doh movie won't be good?!

Interesting, hopefully it'll turn out like The LEGO movie. Also it better not be like the Smurfs movies where it's a mix of CG and live action.

Paul Feig is directing? Well then lets count Melissa McCarthy in there. Hopefully she will be cast as a giant pile of play doh that doesn't speak.

Why do people get so freakin upset whenever it's not cb related? Don't click it then. This is where I get my movie news for the most part, so I wouldn't have known about this if it wasn't for this article.

Come at me with all the "It's called CBM for a reason!" replies. I don't give a shit, it's more than that and has been for a long time.

This is an uninspired response to the Lego Movie. It will probably be going straight to development hell.
