According to Variety (you know, that magazine that named me one of their “10 Comics to Watch” in 2007), there is going to be a remake of the incredible movie “Slap Shot,” the popular ice hockey-themed film that starred Paul Newman in his prime. I don’t care what Defamer says, I think a remake of “Slap Shot” is a good idea. And you heard it here first- I want in. Aside from being, you know, a comedy-type person, I am also 1/4 Canadian and played NCAA ice hockey (both 100% true facts). I even still play ice hockey now. What? Do you think that photo on the splash page of my website is Photoshopped? No, that shit is real.
I wasn’t in show business back when they made the popular “Mighty Ducks” films, so I really think this “Slap Shot” remake is God’s way of saying “The world needs a hockey movie with Dave Hill in it.” I mean, seriously, what else could this possibly mean? Anyway, would someone out there let me know when to show up on set? I own all my own equipment. I’ll just need the jersey probably, but I could probably get one on eBay I imagine. I am really excited about all this. Thanks for listening. You seem nice.
