Not sure what to make of this. I know this has been discussed to death a few years back but rumor has it that it's starting again with a new production company and that casting has started earlier this month. Do we hope this is true or another bust

Well, I, for one, will not be holding my breath.
Without rights to the music, any such film will be pretty lackluster, and, let's face it, how large an audience would such a film be likely to garner, anyway? The Dreamgirls fable, being loosely based on the story, probably satisfied the interest of most of the general public.
And goodness knows which flawed account of Flo's story would be used as the basis for a screenplay.
I just don't see this happening.

Dreamgirls wasnt about the Supremes and had a huge 80 million dollars budget and big stars like Jamie Foxx and Beyonce and Eddie Murphy and Danny Glover.

Robert darling you are so stupid, you would trip over a cordless phone honeybunch. I planned to slap your face over your moronic post, but it would go viral and I would be shamed on the interntet for cruelty to dumb animals.

They just ripped the Supremes completely off! LOL!!! I think that is why they all acted like they were in shock when Mary Wilson appeared at the premier.

Listen Marv-Hector/DetroitLIAR666, put the chicken wings down bitch cause the 450lbs of fat you hauling to and from you grease stained nasty kitchen is drowning you brain cells. NOBODY was shocked when old irrelevant aunty mary showed up at the opening of Dremgirls sobbing over her BFF Flo who the old bitch stabbed in the back. Myrna Wilcox goes around all the time crying about Flo while wailing and screaming I Am Changing in that awful mannish voice of hers. mary NEVER mentions that she had the final vote on whether she (Flo) should be allowed to stay in the group or go....and of course, mary stabbed her "best friend and sister" in the back, and pushed the knife in as deep as she possibly could while saying "Time to go...bye bye Flo girl" Oh yes, miss mary is a spineless, whoreish backstabbing, rotten old BITCH who would show up drunk and high at the premiere of a Gay porn movie with Mark Bighole on her arm if it get her some PR. Old broke Mimmette Wilkins need money as she still paying off Dr. Gonzalez for that nasty Tijuana chin implant she bought in Mexico.

There is no equating Dreamgirls with the Supremes. One was a fictional story inspired by the Supremes, the other was the real deal. You can't tell their story- Florence in particular- in movie form without "Buttered Popcorn" or "Where Did Our Love Go". It would just look stupid.

Not even a good dream BG. For us huge Flo fans this is an f'n nightmare. The woman can't catch a break. If a big production company were behind this it might have a chance. This sounds like some bootleg Detroit bullshit. And I have to reiterate that Hollywood biopics are rarely historically accurate. I just watched Hidden Figures the other day. Fantastic movie. But after the movie went off and I looked up additional information about it and read how different the movie was from actual events, I was reminded once again how Hollywood gets down. Why would Flo's story be any different? She has tons of rumors flying around about her. Unless a movie were going to clear all of that up, it would only serve to muddy her story. And if that's the case, what exactly is the point of a Flo Ballard biopic, to further spread controversy? I know a couple of clowns around here love that kind of thing with their sick asses, but Flo deserves better.

I love the rejuvenation ideas from the youth of Soulful Detroit, things get a little stale around with the senior presence and all. I am sure you will be marketing chocolate tea pots next, which are about as useful as your posts honeybunch. I do love how you state the obvious with such a sense of discovery sweetie.
I better end this now since I am talking to the Soulful Detroit resident snitch. I wouldn't want to get myself in trouble with your esteemed leader, Ralph T. Bye bye sweetie, I do hope we become better strangers.

RanRan darling do not speak for Thanxal, Vgalindo, JobeteRob, Bluesock, and Roberta75 by saying they would like a controversial Florence Ballard biopic. They can speak for themselves. By saying clowns, everyone knew this was a thinly veiled attack against them because everyone knows who the clowns are around here. Was it necessary to call them sick asses honeybunch?
The problem with you RanRan darling is your posts have the subtlety of a jack hammer but the depth of a shot glass honeybunch. Let's work on that sweetie.

I agree Chaireaction. I don't always agree with Thanxal, Vgalindo, JobeteRob, Bluesock, and Roberta75 but he was wrong to call them clowns and sick asses. Everyone knows EXACTLY who he is referring to. Imagine that from the resident snitch, so concerned about an alleged attempt to out Bluebrock, such behavior from someone who had personal conversations with Maxine Powell on the telephone. I think it is time for the resident snitch to self report.
