Anyone else having problems with the Superman trailer? When I load the page it just gives me a faded out Quicktime logo with a question mark over it in the letterbox where the trailer is supposed to appear.
So that's my dream. That and some stuff about cigars and a tunnel.

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
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.

That promo said that Superman is returning after an absence. Why the hell are they so young, then? Are we talking anything more than a long weekend?They're incorporating some fuzzy history for this, the sort you'd get in a comic book version of this same story. It's based off the continuity of the first two Superman films, ignoring the others (which I'd call a good move).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It's not the narrative relative to canon, it's the narrative relative to them all looking Smallville!TV-aged that I wonder at.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I think you need to upgrade to QT7, Sean.

I have QT7(.0.3 -- came with the iTunes upgrade I just did) and saw the same thing on my PC. Then I went to the HD links and watched those just fine instead.

What ita said. I'm at 7.0.4. I don't have time this morning to watch one of the HD links, but I'll try that this weekend.
Now I'm off to visit relatives for the weekend.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
A true story of Turkish Delight:
And so, with anticipation, I took a bite of the Turkish Delight. And a second later, spat it into my hand. It tasted like soap rolled in plaster dust, or like a lump of Renuzit air freshener: The texture was both waxy and filling-looseningly chewy. This … this? ... was the sweetmeat that led Edmund to betray his siblings and doomed Aslan to death on a stone slab?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Bwah! Can Turkish Delight go bad? That doesn't sound at all like the sort I've eaten, which, while not ambrosia of the gods, was still quite good.
