A List Of Things Thrown Five Minutes Ago

YOU ALWAYS SAID THEY'D MEET AGAIN SOME DAY: Coming to movie theaters in 2006: Pretty in Pink II, as John Hughes reunites with Molly Ringwald, Jon Cryer and Andrew McCarthy to see what happens twenty years later, to see if Blaine -- who always believed in Andie -- still believes in himself.

This is an awful, awful idea, and all I can do is imagine the voiceovers during the trailer . . .

• She's back, and she's prettier. But is she still pink?
• She touched you once. Now, in 2006, Molly Ringwald will touch you a second time.

• In a world (blah blah blah) . . . one man
  

No word on Spader. But do you think Annie Potts might be available?

edited to add: nevermind. April Fools joke. As another blogger noted, "Just a thought: If ComingSoon.net had actually run it’s fake story on April Fool’s Day (as I believe is the custom for April Fool’s Day gags), maybe more people would’ve gotten the joke."
