You’ve mentioned it several times now.

Not that that’s really conclusive evidence. I mean I claim to be in England, when in actual fact I am in geostationary orbit above it.

I thought you said gestational orbit. I was starting to wonder…

No, I’m not pregnant, I just look it. And if the missus was pregnant, I wouldn’t be in geostationary orbit, I’d be over the moon!

Well, 88 Minutes was a waste of a good Pacino.  It wasn’t a bad movie, but there was nothing to really recommend it, either.  It’s been done before, and less formulaically.  My favorite comment about the movie?  “Out of ideas to get Pacino out of trouble? Do a fire truck action sequence. Audience won’t remember anything after that.“

What about Iron man whens the realease date?

In the Phillipines?  I have no idea.  In the U.S. it is coming out in a few weeks on May 2.

April 30 is when iron man comes out in the phillippines.

Is the weekend of Friday, May 2 - Sunday, May 4 (or even Monday, May 5) a national holiday there?  If so that would make sense.  Studios often release films a day or two early before a holiday weekend so they can get more box office.  Like they are doing for the new Indiana Jones movie here, being released just before Memorial Day weekend.

If it’s not a holiday weekend, I don’t know why they’re releasing it on a Wednesday.  But they probably have some reason for doing so.

Only good movies this summer for me is Iron-man and Hell Boy. But I am waiting more for next year to see the live action adaptation of Dragon Ball.

This is the second time I’ve run across this in the last couple days, so I think I’ll post it here.  It is rather neat.

The Dark Knight is the new Batman movie coming out this summer.  Someone has taken the trailer for it and done a split-screen comparison of it with the 1989 Batman movie.  (Both have the Joker in them, which would be why this second Batman movie is being compared with the first one from the previous series.)

Both times I’ve seen this posted on a blog the person has stated that these are both the trailers from the respective movies.  I don’t see this.  First of all, the posters remarks about their video on YouTube says, “My edit of the TDK trailer with ‘89 Batman footage, split-screen for comparison.“  It’s 1989 Batman footage, not a trailer.

Second of all, just watching the trailer and knowing the plot of the original, I don’t see that footage being much of a coherent collection to put out as a trailer.  Even without the voice over to verify (the voice over in the video is from The Dark Knight trailer).

Anyway, this is a neat video even to just see the shot comparison between the two movies.

Tah, why must you post such tantalizing things while I’m at work?

Tah, why must you post such tantalizing things while I’m at work?

Actually, I believe I posted it while you were home in bed, fast asleep*.  You just didn’t look at the thread until you were at work.

*Web cams don’t lie, do they?

Going to see Iron Man tonight.  Want me to tape a copy?
