A movie of Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys TOGETHER


this is my wishful dream..lol
who wants a movie with these three detectives?
the Nancy Drew movie's done, the Hardy Boys will have one too, why not them together in one movie.

I've always enjoyed the Nancy Drew and Hardy Boy's stories better when they were together, on the series and in the Super Mystery books. Frank and Nancy were a great team, it's like they were each others perfect match.

At the rate the movie industry is going with their recent remakes of ND and HB, I don't think it'd be that good. The made Nancy 12 in the last movie and they're making Frank and Joe in their 40s. I just kind of wish they would leave the classics alone right now instead of trying to 'modernize' them.

I've thought of this idea as well, but since when do studio execs ever listen to fans. I guess I'll have to live with the 70's HB/ND team-ups since I can't imagine the studios doing it.

They're making them in their 40's!? WHY!???

Keep moving forward...

I love when they worked together in the show! They were always my favorite episodes (especially the ones with PSM).
I would only like it in the movies if they really remained faithful to the books and the show and none of that nonsense about making them in their 40's. They should remain in their teens and that's one of the reasons I didn't see the ND movie.

I think Nancy and the Hardy Boys should be left alone by movie executives for another good fifty years. By then, the goons who accepted the trash of Hardy Men and the teeny-bopper Emma Robert's movie will be retired.

Only die-hard fans (and the authors) know how characters should act and look. We need that kind of person to direct a Nancy Drew movie. Until then, leave the classics alone.


Don't worry; be happy.

If a Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys movie is ever made I hope it would feature the three of them entering a maze at night in the middle of nowhere where the only way in is the only way out. I loved that introduction sequence of the first season of the 1970's series and it always annoyed me that such a great set up was never used throughout the entire series.

That opening sequence has just THE BEST television show theme.
