A Working Girl remake with Penelope Ann Miller and Jessica Simpson?
I don't care how "loose" it is -- that sounds weak.

And yet it's a cinch to win the Oscar for Least Amount of Overall Screen Presence.

NNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOO "Working Girl" is ONE of my favorite movies. Leave it alone......Please??
AND on the subject of Ms. Simpson, I just read that she wants her 2nd try (a.k.a. DO OVER) of her song (?) for Dolly Parton, REMOVED from the show before it airs. What the hey???

They are already remaking Working Girl? Okay, it's been 18 years, but that is not enough time for me to want to see Jessica Simpson do this movie.
