It's that time again for TGITDNMAR, which (obviously) stands for Thank God It's The Day New Movies Are Released.
Yawn.
Angels & Demons
Read the book the first film was based on. Saw the first film. Was underwhelmed. Haven't read the book. Don't plan on seeing the movie unless I see the book. Don't plan on reading the book anytime in the near future. Miss Audrey Tautou, even if she had a blah role the last time around. Glad Hanks' hair doesn't look so retarded. Miss Alfred Molina, but glad to see Ewan McGregor and Stellan Skarsgård. Still not gonna see it.

Is this another case of me totally missing the advertising for a film that the rest of you can't escape? Granted, I haven't been to the theater nearly as much this year compared to last (as discussed previously), but I'm still making it out on average of once a week. You'd think that I would see posters and/or trailers for most wide(r) releases.
I'd only first read of this flick over at WaywardJam's place last week. So what's the deal? Aniston, Zahn, Josh Lucas - I know they aren't the biggest stars in the world, but I'm more than a little surprised that I know almost nothing about this. Must be because nothing explodes in it, no one figures it's worth talking about. Anyway, I'm game (especially considering my options).

And then...
