My positive HP response in other thread. Now, how long until Rise of the Planet of the Apes, the movie I most want to love this summer but fear will suck.

I'm still excited to see Planet of the Apes, and was glad of a new trailer before Harry Potter last night ... except that new trailer leaves me with the feeling I've seen the first hour-and-a-half of the movie.

For those who might care, a bit picture of Hobbits.

A hot looking dwarf... Who knew!

Love it, but I object to there being a hot-looking dwarf. Find me anyone (JW excluded) who pictured any of the dwarfs as HOT when first reading The Hobbit.

I first read the Hobbit when I was 9 or 10. I don't think I pictured anybody (in books or real life) as hot.

A strong recommendation for "Midnight in Paris." It was not lazy Woody, and it made me do something I did not think possible: enjoy a full movie of Owen Wilson. Plus, say what you will about Inception-like movies, this movie had the biggest surprise that I actually gave a sh*t about in some time.

Plus Marion Cotillard at her most Marion Cotillardish.

Given everything we tend to know about the lives of the people we dub heros of one sort or another, I'm not sure I totally buy the premise--or at least that I would act as starry-eyed as Wilson's character did--but it was a charming ride.

I enjoyed it as well. What was the surprise?
