Miscellaneous Movie Musings

I've seen the trailer at least a dozen times now and it just doesn't work for me. I'll wait and see what the word is when it opens but based on that sampling it is just creepy odd, not visually arresting in a good way.

Saw Balls of Fury and found it stupidly amusing. It helped to be able to see most (I believe) of the references to specific martial arts movies (beyond the obvious Enter the Dragon and Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story that provide the major narrative framework). But it was starting to wear thin by the end and I could have done with the homo-humor (the first batch was ok, it was the second at the end that I was annoyed by).
