Ellen D. is doing a remake of "Oh God"? Why? George Burns is rolling in his grave. Can't Hollywood think up anything original anymore?

You know what? I don't usually like re-makes on principle, but I think this will work. (The bigger issue, though, is who will play the John Denver role!!)

Admittedly, not the most original idea. But, why not? From what I understand it will have very little in common with the original film. And I think Ellen's sense of humor will befit the material. I also like the idea that God turns out to be a woman.

First of all, Ellen, who is a WONDERFUL talk host, and an amazingly funny and talented person would do great in this role. But, as for her movie choices (Mr. Wrong), I don't know how it will turn out.
And the thing I love about Ellen playing God - it's a slap in the face to homophobic middle-Americans. Thank you Casting Directors!!! (Or Pitch people!!!)

"Do you know what pledge time is, Andrew"? said the PBS Executive. "Yes", Lloyd Webber replied. "My 50th birthday special must be one program that gets done a lot." "No", mused the man from PBS heedlessy. "Not so much. Our Stephen Sondheim Carnegie Hall concert. That's a big one." Spoons, forks and knives seemed suddenly to suspend their motion in horror, all around the table.

Wasn't Bruce Almighty close enough?

Portia didn't get such a bad deal either. Ellen is adorable!
