Welcome back to purgatory!!!!
Grab your one hundred year old TV Magazine, talk about how many channels you got with Bill The Mule, perform a shitty Shakespearean play with Bill, make sure to lie to everyone and pretend you are someone else even to children, impregnate a woman who doesn't love or like you, dodge all responsibilities, don't grow up, get a bunch of kids killed and make sure you are praised as a hero at your funeral as we travel the dullest post-apocalyptic wasteland possible with 1997's The Postman. 
This epic slog is directed by Kevin "The Cost" Costner and written by David Brin, Eric Roth and Brian Helgeland.
