In the year 201203109312903198013781267137697127891278921312312321 A.D., future technology has made it possible to give someone your OWN HEART for Valentines Day. People think it's really romantic when someone breaks out a cooler, reaches in, and pulls out their own blood soaked heart, still pumping. A common line at this point is "My Heart Beats for You." Which is exactly what Our Hero Glen Jones (Ryan Reynolds) said on the roof of the empire state building to his beloved Claire (Claire Danes) that romantic night after a nice dinner at a mexican restaurant. But he wasn't expecting what she said next.
"Oh My God!" she said. "I recognize that heart. It belonged to my dead ex-boyfriend, Jason!"
At first Glen didn't believe it. He couldn't believe it! But then when he got a genetic test from a vending machine, he realized it was true. But how could it be? He'd has his own heart forever. OR HAD HE? What follows is an astonishing tale of the uncovery of the truth. Memory Loss. Memory ERASURE. Murder. Death Faking. Guys from the Mafia. And the realization that the man Glen thought he was has NOTHING to do with the man he is.
And what about Claire? How come she has a bunch of shotguns?
In the future, the ONLY thing real is LOVE.
Which begs the question...
IS
THIS
LOVE?

You need to change the date for two reasons the first is that by that time people will no longer use the term A.D. Christ will have returned and a new term will be used. A.S. maybe for after salvation. And when He returns our Lord will abolish pagan holidays such as valentines day. The other reason is that by 2012031093129031980137812671376971278912789 the sun will have gone supernova and Earth will be destroyed in what The Book calls hellfire. You know I know it is just a movie but you need to think about these things because when your audience does the math in their heads or on paper, it doesn't quite add up.
Let me answer your question, Steve. Yes, this is love. I AM IN LOVE WITH YOUR SCREENPLAY.
