The long-gestating “Dukes of Hazzard” movie is apparently a go, with Seann William Scott and Johnny Knoxville starring as Bo and Luke Duke, and Jessica Simpson stepping into Catherine Bach’s Daisy Dukes as, uh, Daisy Duke. The involvement of the director of “Super Troopers” gives me hope that it won’t suck, but two questions remain unanswered: will Danny DeVito do what he was born to do and play Boss Hogg, and will the General Lee still be decorated with the Confederate Flag?
On the latter question, I can see the producers catching shit no matter what decision they make. Sort of like John Kerry on Iraq.
