Hmmm. I think I'm more toward the side of no "cool for cool's sake", at least not when you've got such a fantastic cast to play with. I think Hopkins hit the precisely correct notes during the final scene, I'll completely agree with you on Lavinia, and I think the direction Lange took with Tamora was fantastic. That scene in the woods with Demetrius, Chiron, Lavinia, and Tamora was bone-chilling.
I hated the fantastical interludes. Hated. I saw no point to them, and it felt like pandering to the "MTV Generation" in the worst way. Anvils everywhere.
I think I'm in the "completely valid interpretation of the text, but she needs to tone down the amazingly pretty and yet useless visuals" crowd.

Yeah, if I could remove one thing from the movie, that would be it, for sure. Those were the things that crossed the "cool for cool's sake" line for me.
Fantastic Four: Abridged:
Back on EARTH, CHRIS EVANS wastes 4 minutes of our lives SNOWBOARDING down a mountain for ABSOLUTELY NO FUCKING REASON.
That sequence ended with him burning off all his clothes and landing naked in a snowbank. Good enough reason for me.
Damn, it appears that Keith Richards isn't signed to a PotC sequel yet.
It's the first one I've seen, so I couldn't say.
I can't download QT at work so I'll have to wait until I get home, but this isn't a trailer but a KICK FUCKING ASS sneak peek.
