I'm going to go see 40 Year Old Virgin with some friends soon. Based on what everybody's said here, I can't wait!

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'll watch Transporter 2 with the same mindless glee with which I view Desperado. Pretty, pretty men fighting. Sometimes with guns. Antonio has the gorgeous brown hair, Jason Statham, the incredible abs.

Either way, I'm a happy girl.

40 Year Old Virgin was pretty damn funny, a steady stream of chuckles and explosive laughs. Not sidesplitting funny, but my face hurt when I left the theater. So, all in all, a good show.

I might catch Transporter 2 at a matinee this weekend sometime. I too crave the mindless fun.

Oh! I forgot: I saw the Serenity trailer FINALLY on the big screen! It gave me chills. People laughed at the appropriate moments and I heard a couple of people whisper to their movie-mates "That looks awesome." when the trailer ended.

Joss' work is so unlike anything else. 28 days.

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

I may have applauded a bit (very quietly, honest) after the trailer (my friend, who's seen some of the eps asked to borrow mine to catch up before the 30th), and my claps got what sounded like knowing laughter from people behind me.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I saw Knight's Tale tonight.

That was... interesting. Needed more nudity, I think. And maybe a little more Queen.

So... don't suppose there's a Chaucer slash archive out there, is there?

I saw Knight's Tale tonight.

That was (I thought) a really stupid movie. Didn't keep it from being a lot of fun, though (in my book).

Bettany's Chaucer was the best part.

That was Paul Bettany? Wow, I didn't even know I loved him before Master & Commander.

If someone had told me it was a sports comedy, I'd have watched it AGES ago.

So thrillingly predictable.

Yep. The Chaucer-in-a-pimp-coat was, in fact, Paul "Please Remain Naked" Bettany.

I sometimes have this theory that my marriage should allow me all the Pauls instead of just the one, which works well for Bettany and Gross, but falls apart at Reiser.
