Tragedy averted

Via Simon Pegg, who Tweeted this and was apparently shocked into silence by the horror of it or quietly relieved not to see his hard work sullied by American half-wits. It's the American Spaced, by McG. Or McSpaced as it was derogatorily known.

Marvel as British geeks are morphed into Hollywood style meatheads, the low rent mid-twenties post-college lifestyle is ignored, the Mike Watt character is completely stripped of anything interesting, Edger Wright's direction is ineffectively aped, and comic timing and writing is garroted and left to die bleeding and alone on the floor. On the other hand, the Brian Topp artist character seems to be OK.



Bullet dodged. Now go wash out your eyes with the original British version on Hulu.
