collegehumor.com does it again with a hilarious clip.

Chicago librarian Henry De Tamble suffers from a rare genetic disorder that causes him to drift uncontrollably back and forth through time.

let’s just set aside the whole aspect of a, ahem, genetic disorder that bends the space-time continuum just around one person, and focus on this guy’s job for a second. he’s a LIBRARIAN. isn’t that a pretty time sensitive job? so what happens when time travel is introduced to a librarian?

“sir your book is due… before it was published??”
“we cannot accept this boulder with your name etched in it as your library card.”
“the library will be closing in 10 minutes due to skynet becoming self-aware.”

I just read the the whole plot summary on the wiki entry. oh my god. I simply can’t link it here, I can’t let you read it. just don’t waste another second thinking about this book/movie and you’ll thank me (in the future).

8/31 UPDATE!

this is pretty much unreal, from the songwriting to the cast. how the hell did they get julianne moore and billy crudup??! henry rollins?!

remember that tiny bootleg tron 2 teaser we saw a year ago? well it’s now available in hd.

but what blows me away is for all the kiddies geeking over this, there’s a vast amount of them who haven’t even seen the first one. do your homework first, junior.

then play this game.

btw, nsfw.

I love megatron’s ringtone.

COME ON.

‘T.J. Hooker’ will patrol bigscreen (via variety)

does this mean chris pine will play the lead in it as well?

after the trainwreck that was the first transformers movie I will happily skip this one. and then I saw this review by roger ebert:

so as you may have heard there’s been an a-team remake in the works. a lot of these kinds of news are just rumors or the project never gets off the ground, but when liam neeson’s name gets attached to play hannibal you’re kind of forced to take it seriously. bradley cooper is set to play face.

I haven’t seen anything about murdock or BA, but the latter role ought to be a bitch to fill. who can pull off mr t? apparently the movie is going to have a more serious tone than a campy one, but either way I can’t think of anybody to fit the bill… I already pity the fool have sympathy for the actor who will inevitably be unfairly compared to the iconic mr t.

as for murdock I think jim carrey might be good, but then again he’s just too big to be in an ensemble piece at this point in his career. you just can’t have an a-team movie with murdock getting top billing. so.

the hollywood-80’s remakes-factory is unstoppable, so much so that bitching about unoriginal scripts has become tiresome. in the spirit of “if ya can’t beat ‘em” I’ve taken up a new hobby of Lets Think Of What Hollywood Will Remake Next. here’s one:

…a remake of the 80’s boy-meets-mermaid romantic comedy splash starring paul rudd playing the tom hanks role and taylor swift (in her first major film debut) in the mermaid suit.

thoughts?
