'Serenity'
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.
Weltanshaaung is one of the words in The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee!
I'm going to watch thing Nancy Drew trailer soon so I know what you guys are talking about. But I admit to having been a boy. Thus, I read more Hardy Boys than Nancy Drew. I did read one Nancy Drew / Hardy Boys Supermystery, which was enough to make me think that Nancy Drew is probably better, but didn't inspire me to actually read the novels. Maybe I should.
I am in denial about the Nancy Drew movie. I loved Nancy Drew beyond all that is reasonable, so I can't think about them messing her up.

Yeah, that's the only reason I know how to spell it. Or that it exists.
Except that it's spelled "Weltanschauung."
[Edited for, hah!, spelling.]
Heh. The speller sort of screams it in the show. And there's a song halfway through it. The correct spelling is a bit hard to figure out.
ETA: Also, just noticed that Dana spelled it right. I'm the only poor speller of German words here.
Also, just noticed that Dana spelled it right.And I just looked back and noticed this too. I can handle German words. But I never know how to spell (or pronounce) French words or phrases.
Could doppelganger be the German word that was originally being invoked?
Nah, I got it -- it was unheimlich.
Is that where you grab someone around the ribs and deliberately choke them?
Exactly!
No, silly, it's uncanny. But freaky, due to the German.
