I&#8217;ll be honest, the movie&#8217;s premise is interesting, but I&#8217;m not convinced that I&#8217;ll be able to get past how much I hate Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder. He&#8217;s a terrible actor and I can&#8217;t stand the way she sharpens the letter &#8216;S&#8217; when she speaks. It&#8217;s like driving nails into my cerebral cortex. I see that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0927812\/\" target=\"_blank\">Wiley Wiggins<\/a> is not in this film. Bummer. I love that kid. However, I adore Robert Downey Jr. too, so maybe his presence will cancel out Keanu&#8217;s and I can just muddle through Winona Ryder&#8217;s speaking parts by covering my ears and humming to myself. <\/p>\n<p>Or maybe it will be a completely excellent movie all the way around.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2022 I was watching Adult Swim last night and the bumps said Futurama was definitely being resurrected for four movies, though they won&#8217;t air on AS.
