The odds are in both of those film's favor but there have been plenty of movies I've looked forward to that have disappointed, TRANSFORMERS 2 and FUNNY PEOPLE are just two that come to mind within the last 6 months.Chris Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11477610224995404294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1167080203838700023.post-47669496304907109202009-11-17T12:59:25.913-08:002009-11-17T12:59:25.913-08:00I should wait until I see the movie until I judge ...I should wait until I see the movie until I judge it? With respect, this is rich advice coming from you, good sir. I would bet money that you're going to write rave reviews of both Avatar and Sherlock Holmes, because you've already predetermined that they're going to be great.Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04082737604796435170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1167080203838700023.post-67831807287132065222009-11-09T16:41:48.812-08:002009-11-09T16:41:48.812-08:00I say wait till you actually SEE the movie to judg...I say wait till you actually SEE the movie to judge it. Glad you liked the 2nd trailer better than the first teaser. I will admit 30 seconds worth of footage compared to 3 1/2 minutes of it is a big difference. I do love teasers though just because sometimes they can be real interesting and unique but I think AVATAR definitely needed to show more to get people on board. I read somewhere today that between the cost of the production itself and the marketing the film will probably cost the studio about half a BILLION dollars. That is A LOT of money they need to recoup. I've heard great things about AN EDUCATION and would like to see it. While there have been very few definite Oscar nom front runners so far I think you're right about her. EVERYONE is raving about her performance.Chris Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11477610224995404294noreply@blogger.com
