Now that I’ve watched the second trailer for the “Fame” reboot, I find that I am inspired to rewrite the original theme song, with new lyrics. So here goes:
Hollywood look at me
And tell me what you see Jazz hands, cropped shirt, nerdy girl Kelsey Grammer says you’re talented, so give it a whirl!
And look there’s Lilith too She’ll tell you what to do Questionable teenage cabaret Back flip your blues away!
My mom is to blame! Fame! Remakes will live forever Even if they’re sort of lame Lame!
It’s just a rough draft... Watch the trailer below and let me know what you think. You can be honest, but please don’t go all Mrs. Sherwood on me.
What do you think? Does the new "Fame" look better than the original? Click here to comment.

The trailer doesn't reveal enough for an accurate comparison. I will say though--I still lean toward the original as my preference. In other words: show me more, and maybe then I could be swayed your way. Having said that: I'm not pulled in by the trailer at all--I haven't much interest in seeing this remake. You've "got a long row to hoe" to convince me.

I agree with GMAJoan in reference to making a clear comparison. There is not enough available on the trailer. However, I think, overall that this movie will only appeal to a very small audience. Those who love for the arts and theater who also have a love the original film and television show. Good luck!!
