Snow White and the Huntsman Ian McShane Chris Hemsworth

We got Red Riding Hood and Beastly last year. Snow White and the Huntsman is upon us, our second Snow White flick in just the past few months (after Mirror Mirror). Which means:
What fairy tales are begging for a fresh new retelling?

There’s already Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters, a horror comedy slated for next year. Anyone want to see Jack and the Beanstalk done up Lord of the Rings style? Or perhaps a feminist twist on Cinderella? And whom would you cast in your fairy tale?

Have fun!
