LET ME INCEPT THIS TOTAL RECALL SYNOPSIS INTO YOUR MIND

Somehow they managed to find a way to make the plot of "Total Recall" sound boring. Unreal.

I never thought Mars was an essential element of the story, so I'm not too bothered by the remake being Earth-bound.  I just don't get the need to remake the film at all.

That Comic Con footage was literally every single thing that is wrong with Hollywood. It hurt my eyes so bad I wanted to Scott Summers it out of existence.

Farrell, Cranston, and Nighy all get love from me, but the fact that they're being directed by a vampire that sucks the soul out of every frame in his line of sight is a bit distressing*. Actually, this is another one of those movies that I keep forgetting exists, which in the past has always been a good, sixth sense barometer for how a film will perform and/or be received. In a just and outrageously awesome world, Paul Giamatti would be playing Quaid.

* "I make shitloads of money, get routinely offered mega-budget genre films, and Kate Beckinsale allows me to enter her...regularly. Get your dick out of your hand, get out of that Salma Hayek boob thread, and face the jealous rage boiling up inside you..."

I honestly can't tell if I'm less excited for this or Battleship.

I do look forward to catching it as a late night movie on commercial tv in a few years like I have most of Wisemans "work"

Oh, it's gonna be fun watching this and wondering how much better it would've been if there was actually some inventiveness behind it.

Len Wiseman: For when an idea just has too much damned imagination in it.

Seriously, it's like he and Paul WS Anderson were grown in a lab by studio executives.

If I lived in a movie world with Beckinsale and Biel readily at hand, I wouldn't be using Rekall to run around in a PKD "futuristic fugitive" story... if you know what I mean.

Wiseman just kills any interest in this whatsoever.
