I love perusing the entries on craigslist because there’s always something interesting on there. Sometimes it’s ridiculous, sometimes useful, sometimes funny, but always interesting. Today, for example, I came across the listing for “Denzel Washington Movie Filming in/around New Orleans Seeks Extras!” and I thought it’s great to see Hollywood returning to New Orleans. Delving deeper, I found that this is not only Hollywood, it’s JERRY BRUCKHEIMER. The man who personifies big budget, mercifully shallow action blockbusters is making a movie in New Orleans!

Going further with the research, IMDB turned up the following plot outline: An FBI agent travels back in time to save a woman from being murdered, falling in love with her during the process. This is GREAT! This is PERFECT. We all know how much I love bad movies filmed in New Orleans, and this one could be le creme de le creme. Imagine if “Timecop” starred Denzel Washington and had a cheesy New Orleans motif going for it. I know I’d be camping outside the theater for that. Immediately I explored the possibility of quitting my job just so I could be an extra in this film. I will fill everyone in on my decision later.
