Looking at my subject title, I was just thinking...Hollywood is so bereft of ideas this will probably be the title of an actual film soon. I'd love to see a film grad try to make an arthouse movie out of this crap. Now that would be a challenge. This isn't in any way part of the question btw. I must get back to work instead of spilling my brains!
