Pitch: Ok, there's this guy, pursuing his girlfriend throughout history, in a... wait for it... Portapotty! GULLIBLE'S TRAVELS

Hey folks, Harry here... Well, at least it's not another time traveling, dimension shifting telephone booth. But a Port-A-Potty? Sigh.

Dreamworks recently picked up a spec from the writing team behind OPEN SEASON, BROTHER BEAR and the upcoming THE MISSING LINK and THE TREEHOUSE. Apparently the world's most gullible man traveling through time via a portable potty - on a quest to save his woman. Problem is - he keeps running into a girl that looks like her in the past and future, that he thinks must be her relatives. This is the spec that sold.

Specs are often picked up, doesn't always mean they get made, but ya never know - the last toilet flick from Dreamworks, FLUSHED AWAY, was pretty good... only, it got flushed at the box office.

Has there ever been a successful TOILET themed film? GHOULIES - no. FLUSHED AWAY - no. Well, Hitchcock did stress a toilet in the trailer for PSYCHO - and that did well, but that's really going back. But that was hardly a toilet film. More of a shower movie. Maybe this is the great toilet adventure we've all been waiting for. Now who's gullible?
