Kaylee: So how many fell madly in love with you and wanted to take you away from all this? Inara: Just the one. I think I'm slipping.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I didn't get a Serenity trailer though. *pout* However, I did get one for The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and it gave me shivers. Of course it doesn't come out until freakin' DECEMBER.

I didn't get a Serenity preview either. I got Chronicles of Narnia, War of the Worlds, and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
I still haven't seen Batman Begins. (We went to see Howl's Moving Castle last night instead) Next weekend we're out of town, so it'll have to wait until 4th of July weekend.
Granted, we still haven't seen HHGTTG...

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I have yet to see Batman Begins, but I just saw Layer Cake. Excellent caper movie with all sorts of twistiness, and fantastic acting. Daniel Craig looks eerily like Steve McQueen.
Unfortunately, this film completely ruined Duran Duran's "Ordinary World" for me in a way that Reservoir Dogs apparently ruined "Stuck in the Middle" for a lot of people.
Plus, Colm Meany! Good stuff all around.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Consuela and I saw the Batman. No Serenity trailer, and we both liked it, but didn't love it. Neither of us could figure out why it didn't grab us as much as it did others, other than neither of us are really superhero fans, plus it seemed predictable to me.

Hey. New board.
I finally saw Batman.
I honestly don't think a cinematic experience has ever given me a bigger payoff. And I think most fans of the comics must agree with me - it was just so RIGHT.
As everybody's said.
Also, I actually liked Katie Holmes. I didn't like her character very much, but in some ways I blame the writing for that: she was forced to deliver a lot of the movie's Inspirational Messages, which I never love. Even when Bale was delivering such lines (Trailer Lines, I call them sometimes) I didn't love it, but they were a much smaller percentage of his dialogue.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I saw not one but two trailers for Chocolate Factory. The first was one I'd already seen, with the goofy song. The second one made it look like an actual movie, although I still have reservations.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Anne, I loved that film! I was SO in love with Daniel Craig after it.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
"Would you like to see my mask?"
Which made me think, "How do you like my darkness now?"
