    Yeah, the trailer looks pretty good.

    Based on a kickass short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald. there's also a full length novel thats very very similar: The confessions of Max Tvoli, which is a great great book

    Dammit, I know that. In fact, I knew it right after I posted, but it was too good of a fake angrypost to change.

    For an instant, I thought the preview was of the supposedly in progress adaptation of The Time Traveler's Wife. I was not disappointed when I found out it was not because this also looks awesome.

    It does have Casey Jones in it though.

    Oh hey, it's that guy who had a similar but racist name a little while ago and for some reason adds a space right before all of his punctuation.
