Ahhh yes, the Global Asylum never fails...


in their attempts to turn out steaming mounds of crap, and they don't disappoint here. The casting. with the exception of Bill Oberst was terrible. Were these the only people who showed up. or were they the only ones who didn't run away after they saw the script? Without spoilers, I can't list the plot holes and dangling tangents, but there were enough to make me wonder why they didn't just cut fifteen minutes from the production. Lighting was less than flattering, and the "background music" took itself way too seriously.

Oh, and one last thing- where can I get one of those kitchen stoves that boils two gallons of tap water in thirty seconds? I like pasta, and that would really be handy.

I should have known in the first couple minutes with the CGI arm that I should have turned this off.

I suppose what Global Asylum is best at is keeping people employed. When you pull up Bill Oberst's profile, he is one busy actor. That's not necessarily a bad thing, to be a "working actor".

I'm with you on the stove. I have a "Fast Boil" ring on my stovetop, but I still have to wait a few minutes. And it's really hard to bend your head down into a pot like that without spilling the whole pot all over the place. (not that I tried with boiling water myself!)
