073 - Love Across Time

Join us for Episode 73 of Dumpsterpiece Theater as we wade through the lukewarm waters of "Love Across Time," a time-traveling romance so bland it makes beige look vibrant.

Key Moments:

Scott and Liz immediately identify the film as "the beige of movies" - like a nondescript rental car that fails to leave any impression
We explore the puzzling geography of Castle Eden (the real-life filming location) and its surprising connection to Robert the Bruce
The mysterious case of Chesley/Chelsea's job description - is she a banker? Real estate inspector? Marketing person? We never quite figure it out
Our heroes question the medical accuracy of the EpiPen scene that defies all standard protocols for anaphylactic shock
We debate the time travel logistics: How does Charles manage to invest £1,000 in 1799 and have it magically turn into £246 million by 2025?
Scott investigates how a man from 1799 would acquire a modern identity (answer: it's complicated and probably illegal)
The revelation that Quinn's actor may be in his first-ever role, explaining his awkward neckbeard video game acting
Liz and Scott marvel at Castle Eden's current incarnation as a luxury rental complete with "dungeon bar" and "American fridge"
Our hosts compare the film's chemistry-free romance to Mormon literature traditions, leading to unexpected tangents about Twilight and "two cocks Eddie"
We learn about the glory of the 1999 Toyota Corolla, which caused an entire audience to spontaneously yawn when unveiled

Is it good? Not particularly. Is it a dumpsterpiece? Not quite - it's too unremarkable even for that distinction. This one earns a solid "double meh" rating for being neither entertainingly bad nor accidentally good.
