TRAILERS

In September they start showing trailers for movies you'd want to see, again.

Elizabethtown has not a bad trailer, but it's a Cameron Crowe movie with Kirsten Dunst, so it's probably better than the trailer. (Oh, is Orlando Bloom in it? Hadn't noticed.)

King Kong made me sit up before I realized it was King Kong. I'd been wondering why Peter Jackson was going to waste his moment remaking that tired old story, but it does not seem like a tired old story on the screen. It seems way cool.

And Narnia left me with a feeling of desperate hope: oh, I hope they don't f*** that up. 'Cause it looks wonderful. (Gee, I wonder what convinced them there was an audience for an epic story in a land of swords and sorcery?) I wonder how far they'll go with the Christ allegory?

And then, of course, there's Serenity, but you know how I feel about that.
