6. I agree. The previews tip off that the plot is completely different than the original.
Seems like the only they kept is the name.

3. Much as I dislike Keanu
I'm afraid we'll have to see it. Honestly, though--couldn't they find someone more otherworldly than Ted?! I can't imagine they could improve upon Michael Rennie *swoon* and Patricia Neal, and it looks like they've totally bastardized the story, but. . . yeah. Can't be as bad as what Tom Cruise did to WoTW, can it?
