Movie Buzz What if I told you that most of the original cast of “Wet Hot American Summer” have reunited over the past few days at the San Francisco Sketchfest to perform the film as a radio play — and you missed it?

I guess the top of my fuckitlist would be learning how to ride a bike. I can't ride one, and I don't care. Another thing on the top of my fuckitlist would be seeing the movie The Bucket List.
