Summary
It's 2001 and Y2K didn't end the world, so Ivan Reitman sent aliens to finish the job. One rapidly evolving cloaca at a time. Beth and Michelle cozy in with Evolution (2001), the Ghostbusters-adjacent sci-fi comedy starring David Duchovny, Orlando Jones, Julianne Moore, and Dan Aykroyd doing the most Dan Aykroyd thing anyone has ever done on screen. They remembered this one being funnier. They were wrong. But Orlando Jones still deserves more work, the CGI creatures are genuinely adorable, and it turns out Head & Shoulders is load-bearing. They run the film through the Stitch Count and the results are about as promising as napalming a nitrogen-based life form. It's not science, it's Skyance.
