Sounds fine to me.
I'm all up in the law now, but damn it feels good to get my violence on.

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.

Sounds good to me too. I may have concerns about the trailer's All About Peter's Dad theme (which I don't recall ever seeing anything about in the comics), but Garfield wanting to be true to the source's original empowerment of skinny, bookish nerd story doesn't trip any warning bells for me.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
That is weird. Actually, in my anecdotal experience, skinny guys seem to be the only people who understand the experience of a chubby girl sometimes!

I have serious concerns about this. Grievous. On these concerns alone I have convinced myself the movie is going to fucking suck. Beau is an optimist. I'm going with him to the movie, hoping it is better than "Prometheus."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Apparently he's making the story inaccessible to people who were teased because they weighed more than average. I feel that as someone who was bitten by a spider as a child and who has a scientist as a parent this is explicitly my story, so I wouldn't expect a huge box office. I mean, how many people can possibly relate to that?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I may have to delete this soon, but there is basically nothing in the trailer that actually made it into the movie.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Jess, did that make the movie better, or worse, than you hoped it would be? (If you had any expectations at all, that is.)

Honestly, I forgot which movie we were seeing until about an hour before the screening, so I went in with no expectations at all. But watching the trailer again afterwards was pretty confusing.
(And again, I may have to delete this - not sure how embargoed it is.)

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Damn woman. that's excellent intel. I haven't seen too many trailers, but before Prometheus, they had a set of extended cuts (with interviews) of the film and I'd be surprised if you said is true about that.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
I don't really care that much about Ethan Hawke's career, but in the middle of this interview, he said the magic words: [link]
Re. working again with Linklater:
We’re also doing a follow-up to “Before Sunrise” and “Before Sunset,” so that will be fun. We’re going to shoot that this summer.
I cannot believe it's been 8 years since Before Sunset. By the time the movie is ready to come out, it'd have been about 10 years after that film. There is something marvellous about the notion of revisiting this same couple every 10 years for... I don't know. As long as Linklater, Hawke and Delpy are willing, I suppose.
It's gonna be tough to top Before Sunset though. It's one of my favourite films, with just about the perfect ending. "Baby, you are going to miss that plane." Her singing. His smile. Augh, my heart.
