The buzz: The future's in the past for one of the summer's most troubled wannabe blockbusters, a $250 million, 3-D threequel to the 1997 original that underwent multiple script rewrites and a three-month production shutdown. Joining original stars Smith and Jones: Brolin, who plays the 1960s version of Jones' Agent K.
