Our friend Andy did props on that. I got to see a lighter and some coins and stuff which were very cool, so I know those will be good.
Jinx? If you and Dreg have been using my moisturizer again I'm going to have to rip off your scaly- hey, what's the deal with your face?

A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I saw the Constantine trailer when I saw Million Dollar Baby. When it came on, one of my friends (I went with, like, 3 other people) said, "Oooh", in a "now I understand" kind of way.
Because when I told her that Keanu Reeves was going to play Constantine, she thought I meant Constantine the Great.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
If any of you go, please oh please take photos. Lots and lots and lots of photos.
I think we need to go for an outing.
I really want to see The Wedding Date. And Bride and Prejudice. And Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Why aren't these movies out already?
Or two.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Dude, lets change the name of the city to Constantinople, not Istanbul...

You have high-quality friends, Sumi.
I am hoping Constantine turns out to be good. We're due.

That's what I thought too, when you guys started to talk about it. I figured it was yet another epic historical, to rival Colin Farrell in Alexander, or something. And then I saw the trailer, and understood.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The Constantine ad says to me "Matrix meets Devil's Advocate." Which sounds like I'd like it, but not that it would necessarily be good, per se.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I can't see Keanu pulling off the world-weary, tired smartass without being somehow blunt. I want it to be magic, but mostly I wanted it to be this.

Well, she really thought what Alibelle thought: that given Gladiator, Troy and Alexander we were in for another sandals and swords historic epic. She had also never heard of John Constantine. I just assumed that she had. (I've only come across him in his cameos in one of the Sandman books that I read.)
