I agree with queenmargot.

Why the hell didn't I know about this?

It just completely slipped under our radar.

Maybe the good movies are getting less hype now or something. "If you build it, they will come" type mentality. I mean, we're three months away from the final Star Wars, and I've heard basically nothing about it in the media.

You mean you didn't know about it? *blinkblink*

Roll on April 29!

[conuly]

If I'd known about it, don't you think I'd've posted about it? *drools over this movie*

[firingneurons.livejournal.com]

I'm camping out!

[rachelkachel]

I knew about it...

I think it's been mentioned on metaquotes several times. *shrugs*

[literalgirl.livejournal.com]

I can't imagine. I have seen the trailer for this movie about 4 times already in the last couple of months. I saw it before "Closer", most recently. Maybe before "Finding Neverland"? *tries to remember recent movies attended*

I can't recall. Whatever movies we took the kids to over the Christmas break, I am sure.

I can understand having missed it if one hadn't been to a movie lately, as I have not seen any TV advertising for it... but plenty of in-theatre trailers!

I hope it got the treatment it deserved. I am so looking forward to it. :-)

Hey, did you ever see Rabbit Proof Fence?

[conuly]

Yes, actually, in the English 2 with the professor who didn't like my laptop.

Movie tickets are $9.25 here. I can find a better way to spend my money most of the time.

[gingembre.livejournal.com]

Is it good?

[noodles-morgyn.livejournal.com]

Wow- I knew it was coming out, but not that soon. *waits paitiently*

[conuly]

Could be better, could be worse. Why?

[gingembre.livejournal.com]

Rented it. If you hadn't seen it I was going to ask you over to watch it sometime.

We got back the first season of Alias. You and Asa are up next to borrow it. I figure you might watch it faster. You want dibs?

[conuly]

Nah, I'm cool. Now, if it were Lilo and Stitch...

[gingembre.livejournal.com]

But you still are going to borrow it, right?

[cumaeansibyl.livejournal.com]

What, you missed the furious little fan-wank when they cast a black man as Ford Prefect? It was the strangest thing I've ever seen. "But the book doesn't SAAAAAAY he's black! IT'S NOT RIGHT HE SHOULD BE WHITE! Oh, and I'm not racist."

[conuly]

How the hell did I miss that?

Gee, now I have to go back, and post on that stupid filetmignon comm just to tell that twit that, no, I am *not* posting in every wank.

[conuly]

Yes.

[literalgirl.livejournal.com]

That explains it then! :-/

My theater has had trailers for that for months, but we all agree that they're so unobtrusive that all off us (people who work there and have all 12 on the loop MEMORIZED we see them that often) completely missed it.

We didn't realise until a few weeks ago that hey....is that....OMFG IT IS.

[minkhollow]

Don't know - I've been squeeing over the prospect on occasion.
(Oh, and there's an even shinier trailer on amazon.com - has actual people in.)

9.25?! Wow, I gotta move to SI...

[conuly]

That's in Manhattan.

[innerbrat]

It's probably just that he wasn't black in the TV series, and neither David Dixon nor Geoffery McGiven are black.

*shrugs*

I'm more concerned by Zaphod apparently having one head and two arms.

Sorry, to add...

[innerbrat]

It would be less of an issue if Zaphod were black. This is the same problem I had with Keanu Reeves in Ken Branagh's Much Ado (that, and Keanu can't act).

I've seen the trailer now, and I see the second head, but I hate it.
