Apparently, Weekend at Farting Hogwarts Cast Away Island didn't compel any posts or discussion.

Having now viewed that trailer, I can see why. It's not compelling.

They remade Weekend at Bernie's?

No, whoever Hutch is they're being a dick. I expect there's a 殭屍 twist there, but it looks as fun and entertaining as anything else released in a decade.

Besides being a dick, the trailer did make me think of a pretentious, indie take on Weekend at Bernie's.

You asked a question. I answered it.

To be less flippant. We clearly have different ideas about what makes a movie fun and entertaining. And that's how it should be, we're individuals.

It looks like Daniel Radcliffe is going to be playing a mashup of Bernie and Wilson, plus he gets to talk. Why is he talking? He looks like a corpse. Is he merely paralyzed from the neck down? Is he dead, and everything he says is a delusion originating from the other guy? Did the other guy actually succeed in hanging himself, and the entire movie is the 6th Sense on a deserted island?

Now that I've asked these questions, I have to say: 6th Sense on a deserted island would have been a better pitch than "swiss army man." But that's just my opinion. And I'm still not going to watch this movie.
