Seriously, are you kidding me?

Poseidon's Maiden VoyageWhat once was a movie, and then was a television movie, is now a movie again. "Poseidon" is back, and it's offering more excitement and upside-down action than ever before. The 1972 film had Gene Hackman and was the first of its kind, but the effects weren't that convincing, and it also had Ernest Borgnine. This new trailer I saw during the Super Bowl has Kurt Russell, and you'll never guess what else. It also has—Are you ready for this?—computer-generated effects. Pretty awesome, huh? After two tries, it seems three's a charm. We finally have the technology to make a cruise liner believably turn upside-down. Hooray! First another "Final Destination" and now this. What a great year this is turning out to be.

Phew! Sorry, I had to give my sarcasm a break. It can only go for so long.
