Dear Hollywood,

Stop re-making shit that was perfectly good the first time around. In fact, just stop making shit, period.

No love,

I suddenly envision Klaatu saying "Be excellent to each other".

And then I weep.

Oh, for Christ's sake!

It was a terrific movie, and much of the reason was that it pointed up the Red Scare hysteria of the times. What the hell are they going to accentuate now?

Also -- Keanu Reeves? What the fuck? I mean, what the fucking fuck?
