JZ, if loving Spider-Man makes you a cheap wretched whore, then count me among the slatternly. I saw the damn thing twice in less than 24 hours, so that ought to give you some idea of how much I loved it.

The only scene that made me teary was when Peter told Aunt May all about Uncle Ben's death, and why he (Peter) felt responsible -- I was teary both while Peter was talking, and at Aunt May's reaction of just silently walking away.

The train scene, though, felt kind of manipulative, like I was supposed to get teary, and I can't stand that.

Oh! Another sort-of-teary moment was Harry's reaction when he took Spidey's mask off and realized it was Peter. Just this whole big ball of emotion -- shock and betrayal and leftover grief and disbelief and anger -- it was fucking beautiful.

I think maybe I just like pretty guys who are hurt (see also, Wyndam-Price, Wesley).

And James Franco is just so HOTT. I want to bite his lower lip.

What IMDB says about I, Robot:

The movie originally started as a screenplay entitled "Hardwired", a classical-style murder mystery that read like a stage play, and was very much in the spirit of Asimov's "three laws" mysteries. When the original "Hardwired" script eventually reached Fox, after being developed at Disney with director Bryan Singer, new director Alex Proyas and writer Jeff Vintar opened up the story to fit a big budget studio film. When Fox acquired the rights to Isaac Asimov's story collection, Vintar spent two years adapting "Hardwired" to serve as a tenth story in the Asimov canon, complete with Susan Calvin and the Three Laws of Robotics. Writer Akiva Goldsman came on late in the process to tailor the script to Will Smith.

Teppy, I blubbered at both your sort-of-teary moments. And I loved Aunt May's reaction, the deadly quietness of it and Peter's silent devastation, and I love the film for being large enough to carry both the big, gloriously cheesy moments of High Melodrama and the small subtle emotionally true moments.

Seriously, Peter's big revelation to Aunt May just blew me away. It was such a powerful moment.

I am now watching Logan's Run. I am surprised at how little of it I remember. BTW, is the remake of it still happening?

Just got back from Anchorman. Anyone else see it? I have nothing to say about it. Nothing. But my throat and stomach hurt from laughing so much. My head also hurts, but I don't know if that's because if the laughing.

Oh, poor Logan. He had to leave the Renewal thingie (I forget what it's called) to go chase a Runner. Hmm. his weapon seems to involve sparklers.

edit: The Renewal thingie is called Carousel.

I saw Farenheit 9/11 tonight. I feel like I've been expertly manipulated.

And when Lila Lipscomb was breaking down in front of the White House? I wanted to slap the camera man. "Go HELP her, you asshole!"

I perhaps see these things on too personal a level.

Brian Singer is attached to it, I think, tommy. But it's not been cast yet.

Jenny Agutter and Michael York were both very attractive back in 1976. And the new Logan's Run shows on IMDB as coming out in 2005.

I love this language choice in an article about A Home At The End Of The World and its cut:

Farrell has apparently made some hard demands about the trimmed scenes being re-inserted back into the film.

The flimsy outfits and lack of bras in the future are distracting.
