Monopoly for the Paris Hilton Set

Once again, they're trying to ruin a classic, this time, its the perfect as it is board game Monopoly.  The good news is they are testing this monstrosity across the pond in the UK.  Let's hope it tanks and never makes its way over here.  Why can't they just leave the classics alone?

This is becoming a running series at doubleplusundead, we've chronicled this fixation on attempting to cash in on classic movies and other things by doing crappy remakes, the sequel to Ferris Bueller's Day Off, and of course the upcoming GI JOE movie, which will undoubtedly suck...and there are countless other classic films and TV shows you and I can think of that have been ruined because businesses can't seem to come up with an original idea, and feel the need to "reinvent" the classics.
