i just saw an ad for a movie starring keanu reeves and sandra bullock, who play star-crossed lovers, one of whom appears to be...a time traveler.
clearly, the movie industry has found the solution to sagging ticket sales and apathetic audiences.

whoa whoa -- is this bill and ted's 3 or kate and leopold 2? BIG difference. god, what i wouldn't give for the cinematic return of bill s. preston esquire.
Maybe he can travel his ass back in time and stop her from making SPEED 2: WAVES OF THREATDOWN or whatever that piece of shit was called.
dammit, I really liked readingThe Time Traveler's Wife. I hope their movie is not a remake of that book.
When I saw that trailer, I had a visceral "How does this crap get made?! Is Hollywood completely out of ideas?! Bah!!!" reaction...until I saw it end with "Written by David Auburn". He's the guy who wrote the Pulitzer Prize-winning play Proof. (Something, surprisingly, they didn't pimp in the trailer.)
That makes me wonder if there is a chance this movie may not actually suck despite its ludicrous premise. I don't know how you can overcome a premise like "separated by two years" but it at least wasn't written by a hack.
