Best. Comment. Ever.

A couple of months ago, I posted an entry that discussed new technology being tested at Johns Hopkins that would allow doctors to perform virtual examinations using robots. I titled the post “Short Circuit 3″ in reference to the 1986 film starring Ally Sheedy, Steve Guttenberg, and a zany robot by the name of Johnny Five–not to mention its slightly less star-studded sequel. Anyway, someone posted the following comment on this long-forgotten entry yesterday:
hi there,I am the head of Tristar - we own the rights to the ‘Short Circuit’ series. I know you think I am probably a ’square’ but listen up hepcats.
The next Short Circuit film is already in production - Johhny 5 is back and this time he’s just as crazy!
Without giving too much away, Johnny 5 falls in love, could it be with a new military Robot called Madonna? (Mutually Assured Destruction of Nuclear Nanite Application). I aint telling.
There are all sorts of hi-jinks as you would expect. Have you ever seen a robot dance the Macarena, you will!
Keep watching the skies.

Hijinx indeed… remember what happen last time someone purported to be the head of a major entertainment company emailed you?
also, re: “Mutually Assured Destruction of Nuclear Nanite Application”… that has to be straight outta Brunching Shuttlecocks, no?
Wow. Maybe we can send him the 63 scripts for the Space Quest movie we’ve gathered over the years.
That is fake because if it was real he would know there was already a third johnny five film its called “hot cars cold facts” its pretty cool too
