If that were in real life, as long as I had at least one good book to entertain me (like a Murder, She Wrote mystery novel), I think I veritably could make out pretty well.

This looks like a fantastic idea for a film. I temporarily lost the ability to get on this, and other sites, and I was immediately annoyed.

It feels like each time Ruben Östlund makes a movie, his estimation of what it would take for civilization to go out the window gets lower and lower: From an avalanche to a shipwreck to a minor inconvenience.

should this upcoming comedy sells well, hopefully the producers a sequel with the title, “the Hometheater is Down”.
that should draw some response from HTF members!

He's kind of like a pretentious Larry David.

Weird, I thought this film was completed, I could have sworn I saw a clip from it online, I must have dreamed that or had a hallucination. If it is still adding cast, I guess it has not even started shooting.

I also thought I read an interview about the making of this picture and how it came together...I've got to be losing my mind.
