As you’ve likely heard, the Police Academy movies are on their way back to the big screen. Unfortunately, we won’t be getting another installment with the original cast (RIP David Graf). And Monika has already asked for us to propose our dream replacements (just as long as 92-year-old George Gaynes can make one last appearance before he dies, I don’t care who else is in this). So for today’s Pitch, I’d like to suggest an unlikely writer/director for the reboot: Bobcat Goldthwait. The comedian-turned-filmmaker was a member of the Police Academy ensemble for three sequels, as the criminal-turned-cop Zed. Now he ought to return to the franchise behind the camera. Would that mean the series has to return to its R-rated roots? This is what I’m actually hoping for
