Review of Movies: Update with Robert and two in a sinking boat!



London July 1, 2050

"Hall-B, the 9000 series psycho-computer" will be the funniest
cyber-character to strike the silver screen since Artu-d-2 starred in Star
Wars back in the last quarter of the XXth Century. This is how the
up-coming "2050 a Cry-Out-Loud Odysee", the new sit-com being filmed at
Chislehurst Studios in England is being talked up at the moment.

This British-Swedish co-production deals with the story of two punch drunk
computerised old cyber-mates from the 1990s, brought back together by using
the latest cloning technology. This comedy, played by a couple of
marvellously 125 year old amateur actors, teams up a mad shrink with a
retired millionaire Swedish American Hare Krhisna guru to bring the house
down with laughter.

Sample dialogue/scene: Shrink, running down the quarterdeck, looking
extremely pale and nervous, approaches enourmously fat monk sitting
dejected but bejewelled on a big plump pillow in the floor puffing out of a
broken hookah. The scene is by the yacht's mast while smoke billows all
over the stricken old tub amid the debris of battle and the waves sweep the
deck with increasing fury:

>Hi Robert,
>
>"At the moment we find ourselves on the same".....SUNKEN BOAT!
