    This sounds great and the referenced film gives me an excuse to remind people that much of Grumpy Old Men was filmed at Prince’s Paisley Park Studios soundstage.

    They made a GHOST RIDER movie before, but it was directed by the guy who wrote the GRUMPY OLD MEN movies and BIG BULLY. 20 years later it's time to finally do it right, with the director of BIG FAT LIAR, the CHEAPER BY THE DOZEN and PINK PANTHER remakes and the NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM series.

    One of my favorite movie couples of all time is John and Ariel from GRUMPY OLD MEN. Not only is it a later in life love story, which I adore, I think I'm in love with Ariel just as much as John is. Love should make you feel young and alive no matter what age. Also Ann Margaret is so radiant.

    If you've never watched the credits of Grumpy Old Men and Grumpier Old Men, you're missing the absolute funniest parts of the movie. My mom used to get so mad when she'd record these movies and the network would cut off the credits with their own commercials.
