especially considering it cost an estimated 100 million less than Spider-Man 3.
No LIE? Oh my ever-loving god.
Well. There you go. I saw something about how Nolan tried to do mostly in-camera effects. Real deal type stuff...which gave the scenes so much more gravity.
Versus the crap-pull me right out of the story, 'whizbang' effects in SM3. Granted, you can't really costume for a giant sand monster, but still.
I loved that I recognized so many great character actors in the background. It seemed like a bunch of veterans lined up and said, "Me! Pick me! I'll do anything to be in this movie. Can I shine your shoes Mr. Nolan?" Just for the privilege of being a part of it. Or, maybe Nolan is a great guy that people love working with. Either way, made of win.
I wish I'd known Nestor Carbonell was going to be in it beforehand because when my brain said, "hey, that's Batmanuel!" I laughed out loud at an inappropriate moment. But hey, at least I didn't bring an infant to a 10:40 pm show.
Saw
Mamma Mia
last night. It was very fun. Joyful, really.

I actually came out with a semi-audible "It's Batmanuel!" in the theater, even though I knew he was coming. No laughs from the audience, sadly.
WB should bestow a knighthood upon Nolan or something, seeing as how he just got their ass out of the Speed Racer sling.
Our houseguest spent Sunday at the movies, seeing TDK and Mamma Mia back to back. Interesting combo. She keeps raving about "Keith Ledger's" performance.

Me too. And then, for entirely too long, I gazed at his eyes wondering if he has had eyeliner permanently tattooed or something. Such distinct lashes. I don't know that I actually heard any of his dialog.

Heh. It's gone now, but the IMDb FAQ for the movie used to have the question "Why is the Mayor wearing eyeliner?"

It's clearly an F aq...if I'm thinking it, loads of other people are too. Was there an answer? And I wonder why they would remove it.
The answer was his eyelashes. I assume they removed it because it was silly and not very relevant to the movie.
Yeah, it's just what he looks like. [link]
