Why the hell didn't anyone tell me there was a new John Waters movie?!?!?!?!????
It's been mentioned by someone on the board, if not in this thread. They were going to a preview screening with John Waters appearing in person.
Giles! I accidentally killed Spike. That's okay, right?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I'm intrigued, and then the kicker is the last shot of the trailer with the roof being blown off. Cause that's fucking cool.
It looks intriguing, but I have a fear that Farscape/Star Trek-style omnipotent aliens are going to turn out to be behind it, and the real world isn't real at all. Which was an interesting twist back when I first saw it. In entertainment from the late 60s.

If I only had a brain...
Sigh. An LJ acquaintance went to Sky Captain and she's calling it the second-worst movie she saw all year, the first being Riddick.

I heard very early bad buzz last winter. But I have heard other reviews. However, I have no interest in it at all.

Sumi, that Christian Bale interview made me go find the EW cover that made me finally concede that I was wrong, and dear Lord, is Christian Bale HOTT.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
At least one critic is calling Sky Captain the best film of the year.
Edit: Whoops, that review is rather spoilery.
