(been there done that!) It just goes to show that creativity is lost in hollywood. There are probably, literally thousands of scripts sitting on shelves somewhere that are probably genius and aren't given a chance because of $$ and producers going for the attention getter to make their $$. I will say though that out of the three stooges, Sean Penn is the best for looking the most like his character larry.(really good) The other two i would have to see their portrayal of their characters before making a good opinion.

Anyone playing Stooges parts will be too much like an imitation. This has Pink Panther style remake – impossibility written all over it.

What have we had in the last years? - Starsky & Hutch - Miami Vice - The Dukes of Hazzard - Planet of the Apes - The Hitcher - Mission Impossible - Ocean's Eleven - Gone in 60 Seconds - Knight Rider etc. etc. What are we still going to get? - The day the Earth stood still - The A-team - Hellraiser - Barbarella - Flash Gordon - Highlander - Red Dawn (for the kids that can't remember the cold war) - whatever else Rob Zombie can get his hands on and many many more. Some remakes are good or at least enjoyable, most however are just not needed. i don't know much about the Stooges but I'm completely with you on the whole remake thing.

This is another in the long line of feeble attempts to resurrect something that doesn't need redone. These guys must be desperate for material. Do something original for cryin' out loud. Either that or you can do a remake of the remake of the remake of King Kong or maybe Batman. Blah. Why does anyone feel that they can actually recreate the magic of The Three Stooges?
