QuoteSynopsis: Adulthood has lost its charm for four friends who are stuck in a rut. Adam (John Cusack) has just been dumped, Lou (Rob Corddry) is a hopeless party animal, Craig (Craig Robinson) is a henpecked husband, and Jacob (Clark Duke) does nothing but play videogames in his basement. The men get a chance to brighten their futures by changing their pasts when, after a night of heavy drinking in a ski-resort hot tub, they wake up in 1986.

Maybe Hollywood should stick to remakes and movies based on board games.....

I saw the trailer.  It doesn't look that horrible.

Maybe.

I'm just freaking sick of time travel I could scream!

Could they not have thought of a better movie title?
Being a genocidal maniac is not one of my turn ons.

Is it weird to hear the Safety Dance in my head watching Game of Thrones?

No way that's a rocking name.  Even better than Snakes on a Plane. (note, not being sarcastic, I really like this title).

Give them that much credit.....they're upfront about the movie.  You can't claim ignorance with a title like that, I guess

Sounds like there should be a lot of wakka cha wakka in the soundtrack.

It looks entertaingly terrible.  I doubt I'll see it, which is rare when Cusack is involved.

I think it looks pretty funny, but then again, I thought Stepbrothers was hilarious.  I'm lowbrow, I know.

And I agree with Plastic Self Cleaning Duck:  The title is actually pretty good.
I like artificial grape flavor, but I hate real grapes.  A paradox!?

Is it my self-inflicted DuckTales marathon that's causing me to think this or did anyone else think of this too?


Where's forum member King Artie?  He should back me up here.

Wasn't the hot tub time machine an episode of Harvey Birdman?

I love Cusack, I like the writer, the concept sounds okay.  I'm in.

I liked Step Brothers too.  I don't think it has rewatchablity but still...
