New Soylent Screen Up!

The Summertime Hiatus is over, and to celebrate, I needlessly brutalized the last work of a respected sci-fi writer, simply because the film is so talky that it makes "Star Trek The Next Generation" look like a Buster Keaton movie. It's The Man From Earth, where a 14,000 year old Cro-Magnon man and a room full of his college professor colleagues talk for ninety minutes, but it's not as interesting as that synopsis makes it sound. Call it The Big Chill meets Highlander, or My Dinner With EEGAH! but don't say I didn't warn you.

I tried watching that movie a couple of months ago and fell asleep after 5 minutes. Returned to Netflix the next day.
