Barbarella gets new Director…

Somewhere, someone is laughing. The remake of Barbarella just can seem to make up its mind (this is something I’m thankful for as any remake wouldn’t capture the overall cheesiness of the original) and it looks like someone new is on board to direct the flick.

Barbarella (1968)

I’d love to know what director, Roger Vadim, was thinking when he directed the 1968 cult-classic, Barbarella. Were there drugs involved? Was it made as a vehicle for his ‘then-lover’ Jane Fonda? Were the comic books just as cheesy? I watched Barbarella with no expectations, and lucky for me, every last one of them was met. What I got was probably the silliest outer space flick I’ve ever seen, and it came with a heavy dose of hotness and a smidgen of partial nudity.
