Guest SuperTonyJaymz Report post Posted June 23, 2002 From TNMC.org: What unholy pit of hell did the idea spawn from? Britney Spears has formed a production company, unsurprisingly named Britney Spears Productions, that has signed an agreement with NASCAR to develop a dramatic movie based in the world of NASCAR racing. Jim Hart (Contact) has been hired to write a script. The movie would feature Spears, fresh of the train wreck of a movie called Crossroads, as the daughter of a successful NASCAR team owner. She uses her "knowledge and experience" of the industry (translation: cleavage) to inspire a washed up driver to return to the sport. Possibly the most interesting thing about this project, aside from the cringe factor, is that the contract requires that NASCAR races be authentic. So any racing footage in the film will be of actual races. The film is budgeted at $40-50 million, none of which is being provided by NASCAR. WHY? I mean, I don't hate Spears but she can't act that well and Nascar? Bloody Nascar? ARGH! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted June 23, 2002 Hey, I likes me some NASCAR. They're racing a road course today, and I'm WATCHING. Days of Thunder wasn't that bad. And Britney, ah Britney, my secondmost worshipped Pop Goddess... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest starvenger Report post Posted June 23, 2002 Well, as much as we hate to see it, Britney is a proven commodity. If she can give NASCAR more mainstream exposure, I'm sure that they're all for it. [/devil's advocate] Anyways, the plot summary that you provided, isn't that basically the plot for Any Given Sunday? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
