Drive-by movie news: Twilight, Watchmen, Indy 5
OH SHIT IT’S A TWILIGHT ENTRY, GET IN THE CAR. The reviews are not good (43%!) for the preteen squee event of the year, but since when has that ever made a difference at the box office? At the very least, we can hold out hope that the movie is better than the book. Just remember, ladies: stalking is not romantic, even if the guy is hot (well, ‘hot’) and comes with a lifetime supply of built-in body glitter.
- Going to Mars, BRB. The Watchman legal battle continues. Or skip the serious stuff and get your lulz on with the condensed version.
- Embarrassment squicks. Harrison Ford still talking about Indy 5; Gossip Girl’s Josh Schwartz penning teen X-Men flick.
- Fun fact of the day: J. Michael Straczynski wrote Changeling?
- Trailers: Neil Gaiman’s Coraline, Astro Boy.
The Phantom Menace teaser and Holiday Special both celebrate anniversaries today
Yes, there’s the Star Wars Holiday Special‘s 30th, but more importantly, it was November 17th, 1998 that The Phantom Menace trailer debuted, ushering us into a new era for the movies and fandom. The Stooge shares his story of seeing it… What’s yours?
I think I just loaded it up on my computer (Dialup plus an overloaded early StarWars.com… Took forever) because even then I couldn’t muster enough interest in the prequels to see Meet Joe Black or that Adam Sandler flick. The more things change…
