If you are just viewing this in a Friends view, then have a quick look at my main journal page. I have done a bit more customisation of this beast; it now has an introduction, complete with links to my various categories/tags.
This journal might actually be presentable one day. In the meantime, it gets slight improvements from month to month.

And now, movies!
( Mr and Mrs Smith, and Batman Begins )
There wasn't very much in the movie trailers that really grabbed my attention, only the one for The Island. The concept of a group of people being held in a fake world really grabbed my attention, and I wondered where the movie would go with it. Then the trailer devolved to car chases, things blowing up, and the Intrepid Heroes dangling over immense heights. I lost a bit of interest after that, but I might go see it.
There were also other trailers, of course, but I can barely remember what they were for. They were that uninspiring. The two I can remember were for for Stealth (as soon as they mentioned a fully AI fighter jet, I guessed it would be going rogue) and Monster-In-Law (I instantly wrote it off as a Jennifer Lopez chick-flick).
Oh, that's right, there was the Fantastic Four trailer as well. (Surprisingly, *not* tonight, when I saw Batman Begins.) To which I say, meh. Just based on the trailer, I imagine this will not be a huge step forwards for the superhero action movie genre. But still, it has Dr. Doom. That may help the movie a bit. Or it might not. The movie is likely to make him just a generic villain. |
