All previous efforts to remake/reboot The Pink Panther-series were utter hatchet-jobs, but since I saw Sacha Baron Cohen in Hugo I'd like to see him as Clouseau in a future endavour!!!
I miss the beloved character too much and the originals starring Peter Sellers are a bit dated although I still find 'm hilarious. -

I like Sacha Baron Cohen a lot, but I LOVE the Pink Panther movies.
How about we move on from these films though. They ought to have finished when the great Sellers departed this Universe in 1980. Since then we've seen a horrible film made up of out takes, a dreadful Son Of movie and TWO terrible Steve Martin versions.
SBC can do a decent comedic French character (as seen in the stunningly bad Taladega Nights - I've not yet seen Hugo), but let him do his own thing without having to violate the spirit of Sellers or Clouseau.
"I'm finished"
