Good Times ... The Movie

Deadline Hollywood is reporting that Scott Rudin and Sony Pictures are planning a film adaptation of "Good Times" the 1970's TV show.  Um, say what now?

I actually caught an episode of the show last week, and just happened to be the one where (spoiler alert) James died, which is one of the episodes that I remember most vividly and this scene in particular



I don't know how this will pan out but I do have two casting suggestions.  Janet Jackson as Willona Woods and Quvenzhane Wallis as Penny (the role Janet played as a child on the show).  That's all I have for now. If this actually happens I hope the don't make it into a wacky comedy, as the show dealt with some really serious issues at times.
