Jackie Chan Remakes The Pacifier

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009 at 8:50 am by Jamie

If you were one of the unfortunate few who, like I, thought it would be somewhat entertaining to watch The Pacifier on purpose then you know what a horrendous pile of festering and rotted camel testicles that lame excuse for a movie was. Certainly, you would not want to see it again in any way shape or form.

Too bad Hollywood doesn’t see it that way.

Angry Zen Minion Nathan Yuen sent along this trailer for Jakie Chan’s latest, The Spy Next Door, which, for all intents and purposes, is a remake of The Pacifier. Just replace Vin Diesel with Jackie Chan, you get this particular pile of festering and rotted camel testicles. Now I understand that Jackie enjoys working with kids and might be looking to do more family friendly movies (although really, Super Cop is a perfectly great family flick, at least for my family), but his agent should have read the script and realized that sent The Pacifier with a different cover page. Jackie deserves so much better.

    The Pacifier may have been a pile of festering and rotted camel testicles, but The Spy Next Door looks like it might actually make it look good by comparison. Holy crap I want my 2 1/2 minutes back.

    I’m pretty sure this plot is older than the pacifier. I seem to recall Hulk Hogan in something called … Urban Commando? Except he was an alien or something. Let’s hope this implodes so hard it does more damage than the LHC (which wouldn’t be that hard considering).

    As for the comedic elements, this is typical Jackie Chan. He’s played a lot of fish out of water roles. Since this is Jackie Chan there’s a chance this should be better than the Pacifier in the slapstick department. However, Jackie does have a fair number of duds (The Medallion) and this could be one of them. I think it all boils down to the action sequences when it comes to Jackie and this trailer only seems to hint at it if it has it at all.

    Hulk Hogan was in Suburban Commando (as an alien living temporarily living with a family) and Mr. Nanny (where he’s ex-wrestler turned babysitter).

    I always thought the Pacifier was an attempt to update/emulate Uncle Buck (John Candy) which was a great movie.
