Bond
Saw Bond for the second time and I am still so very much in love with it. And this time I didn't just goggle at the amount of times they decided it would be great to beat Bond up and show the blood and his wounded body. Well, I did a bit, but then I noticed other things. Not sure what they are right now, mind you.
But the trailers! What the hell is 'We are Marshall'? This what I got from the trailer: Oh look! We'll honour a giant plane crash of athletes...by playing football as an homage. And everyone will be brought together through realising that this is the best way to deal with grief. And there'll be something about race and really bad clothes, but the two are not necessarily related. While it is no doubt very sad that all those people died I find it hard to get worked up about 'the greatest tragedy in college sports history.' As far as tragedies go it isn't exactly the most compelling one to focus on. Though maybe this film was made by the Rocky people as managed by comparison to make the new Rocky trailer look slightly less awful.

I am jumping on the Daniel Craig Bond love bandwagon; my usual reaction to the Bond franchise is to use it to get the current man in my life (since the franchise has lasted far longer than any of my relationships) to trade off for something *I* want to see, but thanks to Mr. Craig, I got the Bond mystique for the first time. And the hotness. And the damage.

Hee! This one I might pay to see... Maybe it's in development even as I write?
I quite like Bond films in general - they're always pretty safe bets on the action front, but this one... Well, I've never gone to any Bond movie twice. And thought about buying the DVD.

This was my first time seeing a whole Bond movie instead of just snippets. It was very cool.

trailers
Spiderman3: blah, very disappointing, I hate when you try and cover the suckiness of the trailer with bombastic music.
The pursuit of happiness: looks extremely cheesy, and I hated the speeches will smith character was giving his son.
we are marshal: ehh...didn't do much for me.
Rocky Balboa: could this film be worse? ugh!! horrible acting

Spiderman looked remarkly good by comparison with the other trailers so I gave it a pass on those grounds. At least it didn't make me wince!

Daniel Craig was awesome in Layer Cake, the film is really well done. People who trashed him after his casting for Bond should have watched that movie and road to perdition to see what a good actor he is,and he exudes charisma on the screen...then they should have shut the hell up!
